Description

To view the permissions that are available on public folders, see Public folder permissions for Exchange Server.

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1

Get-PublicFolderClientPermission "\My Public Folder"

This example retrieves the permissions for all users of \My Public Folder.

Example 2

Get-PublicFolderClientPermission -Identity "\My Public Folder" -User Chris | Format-List

This example retrieves the permissions for the public folder My Public Folder, for the user Chris. In this example, the output of the Get-PublicFolderClientPermission command is piped to the Format-List command so that all available information is displayed in the result.
