Description

Use this cmdlet to remove a query membership rule from a device or user collection. A query rule lets you dynamically update the membership of a collection based on a query that is run on a schedule. You can't remove query rules from the default collections. Any collection that you target should have an ID that starts with the site code, not SMS. For more information, see How to create collections in Configuration Manager.

When you remove a query membership rule from a collection, multiple resources may no longer be members of the collection. This action can cause any software or configuration deployment to not apply to the resources.

Note

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

Examples

Example 1: Remove the query membership rules for a device collection

This command removes the query membership rule named TPM from the device collection named Windows 10 devices.

Remove-CMCollectionQueryMembershipRule -CollectionName "Windows 10 devices" -RuleName "TPM" -Force

Parameters

-CollectionId

Specify the ID of the collection to remove the rule. This value is the CollectionID property, for example, XYZ00012. Since you can't remove the query rules from default collections, this ID starts with the site code and not SMS.
