The Get-UMMailboxPIN cmdlet returns information from a UM-enabled user's mailbox.

Syntax

Get-UMMailboxPin [-Identity <MailboxIdParameter>] [-Credential <PSCredential>] [-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-IgnoreDefaultScope <SwitchParameter>] [-ReadFromDomainController <SwitchParameter>] [-ResultSize <Unlimited>]

Parameters

Parameter Required Type Description

Credential

Optional

System.Management.Automation.PSCredential

This parameter specifies the user name and password to use to access the Active Directory directory service.

DomainController

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Fqdn

This parameter specifies the fully qualified domain name of the domain controller that writes this configuration change to Active Directory.

Identity

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.MailboxIdParameter

This parameter specifies the identifier that can be used to retrieve information about the mailbox. The variables for this parameter include the following:

  • ADObjectID

  • GUID

  • DN

  • Domain\Account

  • UPN

  • LegacyExchangeDN

  • SmtpAddress

  • Alias

IgnoreDefaultScope

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

This parameter instructs the command to ignore the default recipient scope setting for the Exchange Management Shell and use the entire forest as the scope. This allows the command to access Active Directory objects that are currently not in the default scope. Using the IgnoreDefaultScope parameter introduces the following restrictions:

  • You cannot use the DomainController parameter. The command will use an appropriate global catalog server automatically.

  • You can only use the DN for the Identity parameter. Other forms of identification, such as alias or GUID, are not accepted.

  • You cannot use the OrganizationalUnit and Identity parameters together.

  • You cannot use the Credential parameter.

ReadFromDomainController

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

This parameter specifies that the user information will be read from a domain controller in the user's domain. If you have set the recipient scope to include all recipients in the forest and if you do not use this parameter, the user information may be read from a global catalog whose information is outdated. If you do use this parameter, multiple reads may be necessary to get the information. By default, the recipient scope is set to the domain that hosts your Exchange servers.

ResultSize

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Unlimited

This parameter lets you specify a maximum number of results to be returned. If a maximum number is not specified, the cmdlet will return all results.
