Use the Get-ADPermission cmdlet to get permissions on an Active Directory object.
Syntax
Get-ADPermission -Identity <ADRawEntryIdParameter>
[-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-User
<SecurityPrincipalIdParameter>]
|
Get-ADPermission -Identity <ADRawEntryIdParameter>
[-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-Owner
<SwitchParameter>]
|
Detailed Description
The ADPermission cmdlets can be used to directly modify Active Directory access control lists (ACLs). Although some Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 features may continue to use the ADPermission cmdlets to manage permissions, for example transport Send and Receive connectors, Exchange no longer uses customized ACLs to manage administrative permissions. If you want to grant or deny administrative permissions in Exchange 2010, you must use the Role Based Access Control (RBAC) management cmdlets. For more information about RBAC, see Understanding Role Based Access Control.
You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although all parameters for this cmdlet are listed in this topic, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To see what permissions you need, see the "Legacy permissions" entry in the Role Management Permissions topic.
Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Identity |
Required |
Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.ADRawEntryIdParameter |
The Identity parameter specifies the identity of the object for which you're retrieving permissions. You can retrieve the permissions for any Active Directory object using its distinguished name (DN). If the object is an Exchange object, you might be able to use the object's name. If the DN or the object's name contains spaces, enclose the value in quotation marks ("). |
|
DomainController |
Optional |
Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Fqdn |
The DomainController parameter specifies the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the domain controller that retrieves data from Active Directory. |
|
Owner |
Optional |
System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter |
The Owner switch specifies that the owner of the object specified in the Identity parameter should be returned. If the Owner switch is used, the User parameter can't be used. |
|
User |
Optional |
Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.SecurityPrincipalIdParameter |
The User parameter specifies that only the access control entries (ACEs) granted to the specified user on the object specified in the Identity parameter should be returned. If the User parameter is used, the Owner switch can't be used. If the name of the user contains spaces, enclose the name in quotation marks ("). |
