Parameters

Parameter Required Type Description

Identity

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Management.RecipientTasks.MailboxImportRequestIdParameter

The Identity parameter specifies the identity of the import request. By default, import requests are named <alias>\MailboxImportX (where X = 0–9). If you specify a name for the import request, use the following syntax: <alias>\<name>. Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 automatically precedes the request with the mailbox's alias.

This parameter can't be used in conjunction with the following parameters:

BatchName
Database
Mailbox
Name
Status
Suspend

BatchName

Optional

System.String

The BatchName parameter specifies the name given to a batch import request.

You can't use this parameter in conjunction with the Identity parameter.

Database

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.DatabaseIdParameter

The Database parameter specifies the database in which the user's mailbox or archive resides. You can use the following values:

GUID of the database
Database name

You can't use this parameter in conjunction with the Identity parameter.

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.

HighPriority

Optional

System.Boolean

The HighPriority parameter specifies that the cmdlet returns requests that were created by using the HighPriority flag. The HighPriority flag indicates that the request should be processed before other lower-priority requests in the queue.

You can't use this parameter in conjunction with the Identity parameter.

MultiTenant

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

This parameter is available for multi-tenant deployments. It isn't available for on-premises deployments. For more information about multi-tenant deployments, see Multi-Tenant Support.

The MultiTenant parameter specifies that the search should be performed across the entire forest, not just across the organization that's currently scoped.

You don't have to specify a value with this parameter.

Name

Optional

System.String

The Name parameter specifies that import requests that have the specified name are returned.

Use this parameter to search on the name that you provided when you created the import request. If you didn't specify a name when the request was created, the default name is MailboxImportX (where X = 0-9).

You can't use this parameter in conjunction with the Identity parameter.

Organization

This parameter is available for multi-tenant deployments. It isn't available for on-premises deployments. For more information about multi-tenant deployments, see Multi-Tenant Support.

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Unlimited

The ResultSize parameter specifies the maximum number of results to return. If you want to return all requests that match the query, use unlimited for the value of this parameter. The default value is 1000.

The Status parameter specifies that import requests with the specified status are returned. You can use the following values:

AutoSuspended

Note:
`CompletionInProgress` and `AutoSuspended` don't apply to import requests and won't return any information.

You can't use this parameter in conjunction with the Identity parameter.

Suspend

Optional

System.Boolean

The Suspend parameter specifies whether to return mailboxes with moves that have been suspended. This parameter accepts $true or $false.

You can't use this parameter in conjunction with the Identity parameter.
