SharePoint 2013 TIP: Export All Unique Permissions from Site Collection using PowerShell

  • Article

Introduction

The best PowerShell script that I have found to date for inventorying a site collection's user and group permissions is one developed by Guru Karnik and published in this TechNet Wiki posting. It runs against one site collection at a time and conveniently outputs its results to a CSV file. The site collection URL and path to where to write the output file are entered from the command line. Output lists the following properties:

  • SiteURL [Url to site collection or subweb] 
  • SiteTitle [name of site collection or subweb] 
  • ObjectType [site, list, document library] 
  • ObjectUrl [relative to site collection URL] 
  • ListTitle [NA if site or subweb] 
  • MemberName [simple name of user or group] 
  • MemberLoginName [claims-based name of user or simple group name] 
  • MemberType [SPUser, SPGroup, SPGroupMember] 
  • JobTitle [NA if SPUser or SPGroup, or blank if SPGroupMember] 
  • Department 
  • ParentGroup 
  • GroupOwner [NA if type SPUser or not set, otherwise as set] 
  • RoleDefinitionBindings [Full Control, Design, Read, Restricted Read, etc, etc]

Though this script was originally developed by Guru for SharePoint 2010, I have found it to successfully execute against SharePoint 2013.
