Remove-CsSimpleUrlConfiguration
Removes one or more of the simple URL configuration collections currently in use in your organization. Simple URLs make it easier for users to join meetings and conferences, as well as making it easier for Administrators to log on to the Skype for Business Server Control Panel. This cmdlet was introduced in Lync Server 2010.
Syntax
Remove-CsSimpleUrlConfiguration
[-Identity] <XdsIdentity>
[-Force]
[-WhatIf]
[-Confirm]
[-Tenant <Guid>]
[<CommonParameters>] Description
In Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2, meetings had URLs similar to this:
https://imdf.litwareinc.com/Join?uri=sip%3Akenmyer%40litwareinc.com%3Bgruu%3Bopaque%3Dapp%3Aconf%3Afocus%3Aid%3A125f95a0b0184dcea706f1a0191202a8&key=EcznhLh5K5t
However, such URLs are not especially intuitive, and not easy to convey to someone else. The simple URLs introduced in Lync Server 2010 help overcome those problems by providing users with URLs that look more like this:
https://meet.litwareinc.com/kenmyer/071200
Simple URLs are an improvement over the URLs used in Office Communications Server. However, simple URLs are not automatically created for you; instead, you must configure the URLs yourself. In addition, you must also do such things as create Domain Name System (DNS) records for each URL; configure reverse proxy rules for external access; add the simple URLs to the your Front End Server certificates; and so on.
Skype for Business Server enables you to create three different simple URLs:
Meet - Used for meetings. You must have at least one Meet URL for each of your SIP domains.
Admin - Used to point administrators to the Skype for Business Server Control Panel.
Dialin - Used for the dial-in conferencing webpage.
Simple URLs are stored in simple URL configuration collections. When you install Skype for Business Server, a global collection is created for you; you can also create custom collections at the site scope. This gives you the ability to use different simple URLs at each of your sites.
Simple URL configuration collections are created by using the New-CsSimpleUrlConfiguration cmdlet; you can then use additional cmdlets (such as the New-CsSimpleUrlEntry cmdlet and the Set-CsSimpleUrlConfiguration cmdlet) to populate these collections with simple URLs.
If you later decide to delete one or more of the site-scoped collections, you can do so by using the Remove-CsSimpleUrlConfiguration cmdlet.
Examples
-------------------------- Example 1 ------------------------
Remove-CsSimpleUrlConfiguration -Identity "site:Redmond"The command shown in Example 1 deletes the simple URL configuration collection applied to the Redmond site. This command deletes all the simple URLs assigned to the specified site.
-------------------------- Example 2 ------------------------
Get-CsSimpleUrlConfiguration -Filter "site:*" | Remove-CsSimpleUrlConfigurationIn Example 2, all the simple URL configuration collections applied at the site scope are deleted.
To do this, the command first uses the Get-CsSimpleUrlConfiguration cmdlet and the Filter parameter to return all the simple URL collections configured at the site scope; the filter value "site:*" limits the returned data to those collections that have an Identity that begins with the string value "site:".
The filtered collection is then piped to the Remove-CsSimpleUrlConfiguration cmdlet, which deletes each item in that collection.

-Identity
Unique identifier for the collection of simple URLs to be removed. To remove a collection from the site scope, use syntax similar to this:
-Identity "site:Redmond"
Note that you cannot use wildcards when specifying an Identity.
You can also run this cmdlet against the global collection by using this syntax:
-Identity global
