Detailed Description

The Set-PendingFederatedDomain cmdlet is used as part of the Exchange Administration Center (EAC) functionality and shouldn't be used by administrators manually configuring a federation trust. This cmdlet allows the EAC to save domains selected as the FederatedOrganizationIdentifier or federated domains when proof of domain ownership hasn't been completed.

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 "Federation trusts" entry in the Exchange and Shell Infrastructure Permissions topic.
