New-CsClientPolicy

Creates a new client policy. Among other things, client policies help determine the features of Skype for Business Server that are made available to users; for example, you might give some users the right to transfer files while denying this right to other users. This cmdlet was introduced in Lync Server 2010.

Description

Client policies are applied each time a user accesses the system, regardless of where the user logs on from and regardless of the type of device the user logs on with. In addition, client policies, like other Skype for Business Server policies, can readily be targeted toward selected groups of users. You can even create a custom policy that gets assigned to a single user.

The New-CsClientPolicy cmdlet enables you to create new client policies at either the site or the per-user scope. Note that any given site can have, at most, a single client policy; if you try to create a policy for the Redmond site and that site already hosts a client policy, your command will fail. Likewise, your command will fail if you try to create a new client policy at the global scope because the global scope already contains a client policy. If you need to make changes to the global policy, use the Set-CsClientPolicy cmdlet instead.

Keep in mind that client policies differ from many other policies in that most of the policy settings do not have default values.

The following parameters are not applicable to Skype for Business Online: AddressBookAvailability, AttendantSafeTransfer, AutoDiscoveryRetryInterval, BlockConversationFromFederatedContacts, CalendarStatePublicationInterval, ConferenceIMIdleTimeout, CustomizedHelpUrl, CustomLinkInErrorMessages, CustomStateUrl, Description, DGRefreshInterval, DisableContactCardOrganizationTab, DisableFederatedPromptDisplayName, DisableFeedsTab, DisableMeetingSubjectAndLocation, DisableOneNote12Integration, DisableOnlineContextualSearch, DisablePhonePresence, DisablePICPromptDisplayName, EnableEventLogging, EnableExchangeContactsFolder, EnableExchangeDelegateSync, EnableFullScreenVideo, EnableHighPerformanceConferencingAppSharing, EnableHighPerformanceP2PAppSharing, EnableMediaRedirection, EnableMeetingEngagement, EnableNotificationForNewSubscribers, EnableOnlineFeedback, EnableOnlineFeedbackScreenshots, EnableSQMData, EnableTracing, EnableViewBasedSubscriptionMode, EnableVOIPCallDefault, Force, HelpEnvironment, Identity, IMLatencyErrorThreshold, IMLatencySpinnerDelay, InMemory, MAPIPollInterval, MaximumDGsAllowedInContactList, MaximumNumberOfContacts, MaxPhotoSizeKB, P2PAppSharingEncryption, PipelineVariable, PolicyEntry, PublicationBatchDelay, RateMyCallAllowCustomUserFeedback, RequireContentPin, SearchPrefixFlags, SPSearchCenterExternalURL, SPSearchCenterInternalURL, SPSearchExternalURL, SPSearchInternalURL, SupportModernFilePicker, TabURL, TelemetryTier, Tenant, and WebServicePollInterval

Examples

-------------------------- EXAMPLE 1 -------------------------- (Skype for Business Server)

New-CsClientPolicy -Identity RedmondClientPolicy -DisableCalendarPresence $True -DisablePhonePresence $True -DisplayPhoto "PhotosFromADOnly"

The command shown in Example 1 creates a new client policy with the Identity RedmondClientPolicy. In addition to specifying the Identity, this command also includes three optional parameters and their parameter values: DisableCalendarPresence, DisablePhonePresence, and DisplayPhoto.

-------------------------- EXAMPLE 2 -------------------------- (Skype for Business Server)

$x = New-CsClientPolicy -Identity RedmondClientPolicy -InMemory

$x.DisableCalendarPresence = $True

$x.DisablePhonePresence = $True

$x.DisplayPhoto = "PhotosFromADOnly"

Set-CsClientPolicy -Instance $x

Example 2 also creates a new client policy with the Identity RedmondClientPolicy; the difference between these commands and the command used in Example 1 is that, in Example 2, the new policy is created in memory only, and is only later turned into an actual client policy. To do this, the New-CsClientPolicy cmdlet is first called along with two parameters: Identity (to specify the Identity for the new policy), and InMemory, which specifies that the new policy should be created in memory only and not immediately put into use. Because this policy is created in memory only, it must be stored in a variable; in this example, that's a variable named $x.

After the virtual policy has been created, the next three commands are used to modify properties for this virtual policy; for example, command 2 sets the value of the DisableCalendarPresence property to True ($True). After all the intended modifications have been made, the final command uses the Set-CsClientPolicy cmdlet to turn this virtual policy into an actual client policy that can be assigned to users. Note that this final command is critical. If you do not call the Set-CsClientPolicy cmdlet the policy RedmondClientPolicy will not be created, and the virtual policy will disappear as soon as you end your Windows PowerShell session or delete the variable $x.

-DisableOnlineContextualSearch

When set to True, disables the Find Previous Conversations menu option that appears when you right-click a user in your Contacts list. (This option enables you to search the Microsoft Outlook Conversation History folder for previous instant messaging sessions involving the user in question.) When set to False, the Find Previous Conversations option will be available when you right-click a user in your Contacts list.

Note that this setting only applies to users who are not running Microsoft Outlook in cached mode. That's because any searches conducted by those users must take place on Microsoft Exchange Server, and administrators might want to limit the network traffic generated by these searches. If you are running Outlook in cached mode, searches take place on a user's locally-cached copy of his or her Inbox. Cached searches are not affected by this setting.

-DisableSavingIM

When set to True, the options for saving an instant messaging session are removed from the menu bar in the Skype for Business Conversation window. When set to False, these options are available in the Conversation window.

Note that setting this value to True removes the menu options that make it easy for users to save instant messaging transcripts.

-SearchPrefixFlags

Represents the Address Book attributes that should be used any time a user searches for a new contact. The search prefix flags are constructed as a binary number like 11101111, in which a 1 indicates that the attribute should be searched and a 0 indicates that the attribute should not be searched. The attributes in the binary value are (from right to left):

Primary email address

Email alias

All email addresses

Company

Display name

First name

Last name

The binary value 1110111 means that all attributes should be searched except attribute 4: Company. To search only last name, first name, and display name you would construct this value:

1110000

After the binary value has been constructed, it must then be converted to a decimal value before being assigned to SearchPrefixFlags. To convert a binary number to a decimal number, you can use a Windows PowerShell command similar to this:

[Convert]::ToInt32("1110111", 2)
