Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration

 

Topic Last Modified: 2012-03-27

Modifies an existing set of privacy configuration settings. Privacy configuration settings help determine how much information users make available to other users.

Syntax

Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration [-Identity <XdsIdentity>] [-AutoInitiateContacts <$true | $false>] [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]] [-DisplayPublishedPhotoDefault <$true | $false>] [-EnablePrivacyMode <$true | $false>] [-Force <SwitchParameter>] [-PublishLocationDataDefault <$true | $false>] [-Tenant <Nullable>] [-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]]

Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration [-AutoInitiateContacts <$true | $false>] [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]] [-DisplayPublishedPhotoDefault <$true | $false>] [-EnablePrivacyMode <$true | $false>] [-Force <SwitchParameter>] [-Instance <PSObject>] [-PublishLocationDataDefault <$true | $false>] [-Tenant <Nullable>] [-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]]

Detailed Description

Microsoft Lync Server 2010 gives users the opportunity to share a wealth of presence information with other people: they can publish a photograph of themselves; they can provide detailed location information; they can have presence information automatically made available to everyone in the organization (as opposed to having this information available only to people on their Contacts list).

Some users will welcome the opportunity to make this information available to their colleagues; other users might be more reluctant to share this data. (For example, many people might be hesitant about having their photo included in their presence data.) As a general rule, users have control over what information they will (or will not) share; for example, users can select or clear a check box in order to control whether or not their location information is shared with others. In addition, the privacy configuration cmdlets (Get-CsPrivacyConfiguration, Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration, New-CsPrivacyConfiguration, and Remove-CsPrivacyConfiguration) enable administrators to manage privacy settings for their users. In some cases, administrators can enable or disable settings; for example, if the property AutoInitiateContacts is set to True, then team members will automatically be added to each user’s Contacts list; if set to False, team members will not be automatically be added to each user’s Contacts list.

In other cases, administrators can configure the default values in Microsoft Lync 2010 while still giving users the right to change these values. For example, by default location data is published for users, although users do have the right to stop location publication. By setting the PublishLocationDataByDefault property to False, administrators can change this behavior: in that case, location data will not be published by default, although users will still have the right to publish this data if they choose.

Privacy configuration settings can be applied at the global scope, the site scope, and at the service scope (albeit only for the User Server service). The Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration cmdlet enables you to modify any of the privacy configuration settings currently in use in your organization.

Who can run this cmdlet: By default, members of the following groups are authorized to run the Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration cmdlet locally: RTCUniversalServerAdmins. To return a list of all the role-based access control (RBAC) roles this cmdlet has been assigned to (including any custom RBAC roles you have created yourself), run the following command from the Windows PowerShell prompt:

Get-CsAdminRole | Where-Object {$_.Cmdlets –match "Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration"}

Parameters

Parameter Required Type Description

Identity

Optional

Xds Identity

Unique identifier for the privacy configuration settings to be modified. To modify the global settings, use this syntax: -Identity global. To modify settings configured at the site scope, use syntax similar to this: -Identity site:Redmond. To modify settings at the service level, use syntax like this: -Identity service:Redmond-UserServices-1. Note that privacy settings can only be applied to the User Server service. An error will occur if you try to apply these settings to any other service.

If this parameter is not specified then the global settings will be updated when you call Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration.

Instance

Optional

PrivacyConfiguration object

Allows you to pass a reference to an object to the cmdlet rather than set individual parameter values.

AutoInitiateContacts

Optional

Boolean

If True, Lync 2010 will automatically add your manager and your direct reports to your Contacts list. The default value is True.

DisplayPublishedPhotoDefault

Optional

Boolean

If True, the user’s photo will automatically be published in Lync 2010. If False, the user’s photo will not be available unless he or she explicitly selects the option Let others see my photo. The default value is True.

EnablePrivacyMode

Optional

Boolean

If True, gives users the opportunity to enable the advanced privacy mode. In advanced privacy mode, only people on your Contacts list will be allowed to view your presence information. If False, your presence information will be available to anyone in your organization. The default value is False.

PublishLocationDataDefault

Optional

Boolean

If True, location data will automatically be published in Lync 2010. If False, location data will not be available unless the user explicitly selects the option Show Contacts My Location. The default value is True.

Force

Optional

Switch Parameter

Suppresses the display of any non-fatal error message that might occur when running the command.

Tenant

Optional

GUID

This parameter is not used with the on-premises version of Lync Server.

WhatIf

Optional

Switch Parameter

Describes what would happen if you executed the command without actually executing the command.

Confirm

Optional

Switch Parameter

Prompts you for confirmation before executing the command.

Input Types

Microsoft.Rtc.Management.WritableConfig.Settings.UserServices.PrivacyConfiguration object. Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration accepts pipelined input of the privacy configuration object.

Return Types

Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration does not return any objects or values. Instead, the cmdlet modifies existing instances of the Microsoft.Rtc.Management.WritableConfig.Settings.UserServices.PrivacyConfiguration object.

Example

-------------------------- Example 1 ------------------------

Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration -Identity site:Redmond -EnablePrivacyMode $False -AutoInitiateContacts $True -PublishLocationDataDefault $True -DisplayPublishedPhotoDefault $True

The command shown in Example 1 modifies three property values for the privacy configuration settings with the Identity site:Redmond. The three property values modified are AutoInitiateContacts, PublishLocationDataDefault, and DisplayPublishedPhotoDefault.

-------------------------- Example 2 ------------------------

Get-CsPrivacyConfiguration | Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration -EnablePrivacyMode $True

The preceding command enables privacy mode for all the privacy configuration settings currently in use in the organization. To do this, the command first calls Get-CsPrivacyConfiguration without any parameters; this returns the complete collection of privacy settings. This collection is then piped to Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration, which takes each item in the collection and sets the EnablePrivacyMode property to True.

-------------------------- Example 3 ------------------------

Get-CsPrivacyConfiguration | Where-Object {$_.EnablePrivacyMode -eq $False} | Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration -AutoInitiateContacts $True -PublishLocationDataDefault $True -DisplayPublishedPhotoDefault $True

In Example 3, modifications are made to all the privacy configuration settings that are not currently using privacy mode. To carry out this task, Get-CsPrivacyConfiguration is first used in order to return a collection of all the privacy configuration settings. This collection is piped to the Where-Object cmdlet, which selects only those settings where the EnablePrivacyMode property is equal to False. The filtered collection is then piped to Set-CsPrivacyConfiguration, which assigns values to the AutoInitiateContacts, PublishLocationDataDefault, and DisplayPublishedPhotoDefault properties for each item in the collection.
