Remove-ADPrincipalGroupMembership
      [-WhatIf]
      [-Confirm]
      [-AuthType <ADAuthType>]
      [-Credential <PSCredential>]
      [-Identity] <ADPrincipal>
      [-MemberOf] <ADGroup[]>
      [-Partition <String>]
      [-PassThru]
      [-Server <String>]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Remove-ADPrincipalGroupMembership cmdlet removes a user, group, computer, service account, or any other account object from one or more Active Directory groups.

The Identity parameter specifies the user, group, or computer to remove. You can identify the user, group, or computer by its distinguished name, GUID, security identifier (SID), or Security Account Manager (SAM) account name. You can also specify a user, group, or computer object variable, such as $<localGroupObject>, or pass an object through the pipeline to the Identity parameter. For example, you can use the Get-ADUser cmdlet to get a user object and then pass the object through the pipeline to the Remove-ADPrincipalGroupMembership cmdlet. Similarly, you can use Get-ADGroup or Get-ADComputer to get group, service account, and computer objects to pass through the pipeline.

This cmdlet collects all of the user, computer, service account, and group objects from the pipeline, and then removes these objects from the specified group by using one Active Directory operation.

The MemberOf parameter specifies the groups that you want to remove the member from. You can identify a group by its distinguished name, GUID, security identifier, or SAM account name. You can also specify group object variable, such as $<localGroupObject>. To specify more than one group, use a comma-separated list. You cannot pass group objects through the pipeline to the MemberOf parameter. To remove a member from groups that are passed through the pipeline, use Remove-ADGroupMember cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1: Remove a user from a group

PS C:\> Remove-ADPrincipalGroupMembership -Identity "David Chew" -MemberOf "Administrators"
Remove members from group
Do you want to remove all the specified member(s) from the specified group(s)? 
[Y] Yes  [A] Yes to All  [N] No  [L] No to All  [S] Suspend  [?] Help (default is "Y"): Y

This command removes the user David Chew from the Administrators group.

Example 2: Remove a user from a distinguished name group

PS C:\> Get-ADUser -Server localhost:60000 -Identity "CN=GlenJohns,DC=AppNC" | Remove-ADPrincipalGroupMembership -MemberOf "CN=AccessControl,DC=AppNC"

This command retrieves the user with the distinguished name CN=DavidChew,DC=AppNC and removes it from the group with the distinguished name CN=AccessControl,DC=AppNC by using the pipeline operator.

Parameters

-AuthType

Specifies the authentication method to use. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • Negotiate or 0
  • Basic or 1

The default authentication method is Negotiate.

A Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connection is required for the Basic authentication method.

Type:ADAuthType
Accepted values:Negotiate, Basic
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

Type:SwitchParameter
Aliases:cf
Position:Named
Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Credential

Specifies the user account credentials to use to perform this task. The default credentials are the credentials of the currently logged on user unless the cmdlet is run from an Active Directory PowerShell provider drive. If the cmdlet is run from such a provider drive, the account associated with the drive is the default.

To specify this parameter, you can type a user name, such as User1 or Domain01\User01 or you can specify a PSCredential object. If you specify a user name for this parameter, the cmdlet prompts for a password.

You can also create a PSCredential object by using a script or by using the Get-Credential cmdlet. You can then set the Credential parameter to the PSCredential object.

If the acting credentials do not have directory-level permission to perform the task, Active Directory PowerShell returns a terminating error.

Type:PSCredential
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Identity

Specifies an Active Directory principal object by providing one of the following property values. The identifier in parentheses is the LDAP display name for the attribute. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • A distinguished name
  • A GUID (objectGUID)
  • A security identifier (objectSid)
  • A SAM account name (sAMAccountName)

The cmdlet searches the default naming context or partition to find the object. If two or more objects are found, the cmdlet returns a non-terminating error.

This parameter can also get this object through the pipeline or you can set this parameter to an object instance.

Derived types, such as the following are also accepted:

  • Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADGroup
  • Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADUser
  • Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADComputer
  • Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADServiceAccount
Type:ADPrincipal
Position:0
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-MemberOf

Specifies the Active Directory groups to add a user, computer, or group to as a member. You can identify a group by providing one of the following values. Note: The identifier in parentheses is the LDAP display name for the attribute. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • A distinguished name
  • A GUID (objectGUID)
  • A security identifier (objectSid)
  • A SAM account name (sAMAccountName)

If you are specifying more than one group, use commas to separate the groups in the list.

Type:ADGroup[]
Position:1
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Partition

Specifies the distinguished name of an Active Directory partition. The distinguished name must be one of the naming contexts on the current directory server. The cmdlet searches this partition to find the object defined by the Identity parameter.

In many cases, a default value will be used for the Partition parameter if no value is specified. The rules for determining the default value are given below. Note that rules listed first are evaluated first and once a default value can be determined, no further rules will be evaluated.

In Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) environments, a default value for Partition is set in the following cases:

  • If the Identity parameter is set to a distinguished name, the default value of Partition is automatically generated from this distinguished name.
  • If running cmdlets from an Active Directory provider drive, the default value of Partition is automatically generated from the current path in the drive.
  • If none of the previous cases apply, the default value of Partition is set to the default partition or naming context of the target domain.

In Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) environments, a default value for Partition is set in the following cases:

  • If the Identity parameter is set to a distinguished name, the default value of Partition is automatically generated from this distinguished name.
  • If running cmdlets from an Active Directory provider drive, the default value of Partition is automatically generated from the current path in the drive.
  • If the target AD LDS instance has a default naming context, the default value of Partition is set to the default naming context. To specify a default naming context for an AD LDS environment, set the msDS-defaultNamingContext property of the Active Directory directory service agent (DSA) object (nTDSDSA) for the AD LDS instance.
  • If none of the previous cases apply, the Partition parameter does not take any default value.
Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-PassThru

Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Server

Specifies the AD DS instance to connect to, by providing one of the following values for a corresponding domain name or directory server. The service may be any of the following: AD LDS, AD DS, or Active Directory snapshot instance.

Specify the AD DS instance in one of the following ways:

Domain name values:

  • Fully qualified domain name
  • NetBIOS name

Directory server values:

  • Fully qualified directory server name
  • NetBIOS name
  • Fully qualified directory server name and port

The default value for this parameter is determined by one of the following methods in the order that they are listed:

  • By using the Server value from objects passed through the pipeline
  • By using the server information associated with the AD DS Windows PowerShell provider drive, when the cmdlet runs in that drive
  • By using the domain of the computer running Windows PowerShell
Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-WhatIf

Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.

Type:SwitchParameter
Aliases:wi
Position:Named
Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

Inputs

None or Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADPrincipal

A principal object that represents user, computer, or group is received by the Identity parameter. Derived types, such as the following are also received by this parameter.

  • Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADUser
  • Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADComputer
  • Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADServiceAccount
  • Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADGroup

Outputs

None or Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADPrincipal

Returns a principal object that represents the modified user, computer or group object when the PassThru parameter is specified. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

Notes

  • This cmdlet does not work with an Active Directory snapshot.
  • This cmdlet does not work with a read-only domain controller.
  • By default, this cmdlet has the Confirm parameter set, which prompts you to confirm before a removal of the specified object type can occur. To bypass prompting for confirmation before removal, you can specify -Confirm:$False when using this cmdlet.
