Description

Use this cmdlet to get a setting for a configuration item. Settings represent the business or technical conditions to assess compliance on client devices. Configure a new setting or browse to an existing setting on a reference computer. For more information, see Get started with compliance settings in Configuration Manager.

Note

Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.

Examples

Example 1: Get the location for a setting in a configuration item

This example queries the setting named appevents for the configuration item Windows health check and returns just the location attribute. This attribute includes the registry or file path for the setting.

Get-CMComplianceSetting -Name "Windows health check" -SettingName "appevents" -Fast | Select-Object Location

Parameters

-DisableWildcardHandling

This parameter treats wildcard characters as literal character values. You can't combine it with ForceWildcardHandling.

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

-Fast

Add this parameter to not automatically refresh lazy properties. Lazy properties contain values that are relatively inefficient to retrieve. Getting these properties can cause additional network traffic and decrease cmdlet performance.

If you don't use this parameter, the cmdlet displays a warning. To disable this warning, set $CMPSSuppressFastNotUsedCheck = $true.

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

-ForceWildcardHandling

This parameter processes wildcard characters and may lead to unexpected behavior (not recommended). You can't combine it with DisableWildcardHandling.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
