The Set-ADCentralAccessPolicy cmdlet can be used to modify a central access policy in Active Directory.
Examples
Example 1: Update a specified central access policy's description
PS C:\> Set-ADCentralAccessPolicy "Finance Policy" -Description "For the Finance Department."This command updates the central access policy named Finance Policy to include the description For the Finance Department.

Parameters
-Add
Specifies values to add to an object property. Use this parameter to add one or more values to a property that cannot be modified using a cmdlet parameter. To modify an object property, you must use the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) display name. You can specify multiple values to a property by specifying a comma-separated list of values and more than one property by separating them using a semicolon.. The format for this parameter is:
-Add @{Attribute1LDAPDisplayName=value1, value2, ...; Attribute2LDAPDisplayName=value1, value2, ...; AttributeNLDAPDisplayName=value1, value2, ...}
When you use the Add, Remove, Replace, and Clear parameters together, the operations is performed in the following order:
- Remove
- Add
- Replace
- Clear

| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-Clear
Specifies an array of object properties that are cleared in the directory. Use this parameter to clear one or more values of a property that cannot be modified using a cmdlet parameter. To modify an object property, you must use the LDAP display name. You can modify more than one property by specifying a comma-separated list. The format for this parameter is:
-Clear Attribute1LDAPDisplayName, Attribute2LDAPDisplayName
When you use the Add, Remove, Replace, and Clear parameters together, the operations are performed in the following order:
- Remove
- Add
- Replace

| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-Confirm
Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
| Type: | SwitchParameter |
| Aliases: | cf |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | False |
| Required: | False |

| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-Credential
Specifies the user account credentials to use to perform this task. The default credentials are the credentials of the currently logged on user unless the cmdlet is run from an Active Directory module for Windows PowerShell provider drive. If the cmdlet is run from such a provider drive, the account associated with the drive is the default.
To specify this parameter, you can type a user name, such as User1 or Domain01\User01 or you can specify a PSCredential object. If you specify a user name for this parameter, the cmdlet prompts for a password.
You can also create a PSCredential object by using a script or by using the Get-Credential cmdlet. You can then set the Credential parameter to the PSCredential object.
If the acting credentials do not have directory-level permission to perform the task, Active Directory module for Windows PowerShell returns a terminating error.
| Type: | PSCredential |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-Description
Specifies a description of the object. This parameter sets the value of the Description property for the object. The LDAP display name (ldapDisplayName) for this property is description.
| Type: | String |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-Identity
Specifies an Active Directory object by providing one of the following property values. The identifier in parentheses is the LDAP display name for the attribute. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

When this parameter is used, any modifications made to the modified copy of the object are also made to the corresponding central access policy object. The cmdlet only updates the object properties that have changed.
The Instance parameter can only update central access policy objects that have been retrieved by using the Get-ADCentralAccessPolicy cmdlet. When you specify the Instance parameter, you cannot specify other parameters that set properties on the object.

- Fully qualified directory server name and port
The default value for this parameter is determined by one of the following methods in the order that they are listed:
- By using the Server value from objects passed through the pipeline
- By using the server information associated with the Active Directory Domain Services Windows PowerShell provider drive, when the cmdlet runs in that drive
- By using the domain of the computer running Windows PowerShell
| Type: | String |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
