Identity

Optional

UserIdParameter

The unique identifier of the contact object you want to retrieve. Contact identities can be specified using one of four formats: 1) the contact's SIP address; 2) the contact's user principal name (UPN); 3) the contact's domain name and logon name, in the form domain\logon (for example, litwareinc\exum1); and, 4) the contact's Active Directory display name (for example, Team Auto Attendant).

Filter

Optional

String

Enables you to limit the returned data by filtering on Communications Server-specific attributes. For example, you can limit returned data to contacts that have line URIs beginning with "tel:555".

The Filter parameter uses a subset of the Windows PowerShell filtering syntax used by the Where-Object cmdlet. For example, a filter that returns only contacts who have been enabled for Microsoft Unified Communications would look like this: {EnterpriseVoiceEnabled -eq $True}, with EnterpriseVoiceEnabled representing the Active Directory attribute; -eq representing the comparison operator (equal to); and $True (a built-in Windows PowerShell variable) representing the filter value.

LdapFilter

Optional

String

Enables you to limit the returned data by filtering "generic" Active Directory attributes (that is, attributes that are not specific to Communications Server).

The LDAPFilter parameter uses LDAP query language when creating filters.

OU

Optional

OUIdParameter

Enables you to limit the retrieved information from a specific Active Directory organizational unit (OU). Note that this returns data from the specified OU and any child OUs.

When specifying an OU, use the distinguished name of that container; for example, OU=ExUmContacts,dc=litwareinc,dc=com.

DomainController

Optional

Fqdn

Enables you to connect to the specified domain controller in order to retrieve contact information. To connect to a particular domain controller, include the DomainController parameter followed by the computer name (for example, atl-mcs-001) or its fully qualified domain name (for example, atl-mcs-001.litwareinc.com).

Credential

Optional

PSCredential

Enables you to run the cmdlet under alternate credentials; this might be required if the account you used to log on to Windows does not have the necessary privileges required to work with contact objects.

To use the Credential parameter, you must first create a PSCredential object by using the Get-Credential cmdlet.

ResultSize

Optional

Integer

Enables you to limit the number of records returned by a command. For example, to return just seven contacts (regardless of how many contacts are in your forest) simply include the ResultSize parameter and set the parameter value to 7. Note that there is no way to guarantee which seven contacts will be returned. If you set the ResultSize to 7 but you have only three contacts in your forest, the command will return those three contacts, and then complete without error.

The result size can be set to any whole number between 0 and 2147483647, inclusive. If set to 0 the command will run, but no data will be returned.
