Example 1

The command shown in Example 1 returns information about all the User Services policies currently in use in the organization.

	Copy Code
Get-CsUserServicesPolicy

Example 2

In Example 2, information is returned for a single User Services policy: the policy configured for the Redmond site.

	Copy Code
Get-CsUserServicesPolicy -Identity "site:Redmond"

Example 3

Example 3 returns information for all the User Services policies configured at the site scope. This is done by including the Filter parameter and the filter value "site:*".

	Copy Code
Get-CsUserServicesPolicy -Filter "site:*"

Example 4

The command shown in Example 4 returns information about the User Services policies where the use of the Unified Contact Store has been disabled. To carry out this task, the command first calls the Get-CsUserServicesPolicy cmdlet without any parameters; this returns a collection of all the User Services policies configured for use in the organization. That collection is then piped to the Where-Object cmdlet, which picks out only those policies where the UcsAllowed property has been set to false ($False).

	Copy Code
Get-CsUserServicesPolicy | Where-Object {$_.UcsAllowed -eq $False}

The unified contact store introduced in Lync Server 2013 gives administrators the option of storing a user's contacts in Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 instead of in Lync Server; in turn that allows the user to access the same set of contacts in Outlook and Outlook Web Access as well as in Lync 2013. (Alternatively, you can continue to store contacts in Lync Server 2013. In that case, users will have to maintain two separate sets of contacts: one for use with Outlook and Outlook Web Access, and one for use with Lync 2013.)

In order to take advantage of the unified contact store you must (among other things) assign the user a user services policy that enables the use of the unified contact store. User service policies (which can be configured at the global, site, or the per-user scope) contain only a single property: UcsAllowed. When this property is set to True then (assuming all the other prerequisites have been met) the next time a user logs on to Lync Server 2013 his or her contacts will automatically be migrated to the unified contact store.

If this property is set to False this automatic migration will not take place. However, simply setting UcsAllowed will not cause a user's contacts to be moved from the unified contact store back to Lync Server. In order to do that, you must first assign the user a user services policy that does not allow the use of the unified contact store. After that, you must then use the Invoke-UcsRollback cmdlet to "manually" migrate the contacts from the unified contact store back to Lync Server.

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 command-line interface prompt:

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

Lync Server Control Panel: The functions carried out by the Get-CsUserServicesPolicy cmdlet are not available in the Lync Server Control Panel.

None. The Get-CsUserServicesPolicy cmdlet does not accept pipelined input.

The Get-CsUserServicesPolicy cmdlet returns instances of the Microsoft.Rtc.Management.WritableConfig.Policy.UsersServices.UserServicesPolicy object.
