User	Required	Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.SecurityPrincipalIdParameter	The User parameter specifies the user mailbox that the permissions are being granted to on the other mailbox.
AccessRights	Optional	System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectoryRights[]	The AccessRights parameter specifies the rights needed to perform the operation. Valid values include: CreateChild DeleteChild ListChildren Self ReadProperty WriteProperty DeleteTree ListObject ExtendedRight Delete ReadControl GenericExecute GenericWrite GenericRead WriteDacl WriteOwner GenericAll Synchronize AccessSystemSecurity
ChildObjectTypes	Optional	Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.ADSchemaObjectIdParameter[]	The ChildObjectTypes parameter specifies what type of object the permission is with.
Deny	Optional	System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter	The Deny parameter denies permissions to the user on the Active Directory object.
DomainController	Optional	Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Fqdn	To specify the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the domain controller that retrieves data from Active Directory, include the DomainController parameter in the command.
ExtendedRights	Optional	Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.ExtendedRightIdParameter[]	The ExtendedRights parameter specifies the extended rights needed to perform the operation. Valid values include: Send-As Receive-As View Information Store status
InheritanceType	Optional	System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectorySecurityInheritance	The InheritanceType parameter specifies whether permissions are inherited.
InheritedObjectType	Optional	Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.ADSchemaObjectIdParameter	The InheritedObjectType parameter specifies what kind of object inherits this ACE.
Properties	Optional	Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.ADSchemaObjectIdParameter[]	The Properties parameter specifies what properties the object contains.
Confirm	Optional	System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter	The Confirm parameter causes the command to pause processing and requires you to acknowledge what the command will do before processing continues. You do not have to specify a value with the Confirm parameter.

By using the WhatIf parameter, you can view what changes would occur without having to apply any of those changes. You don't have to specify a value with the WhatIf parameter.

Detailed Description

The Add-ADPermission cmdlet grants permissions to an Active Directory object, for example, modifying an access control entry (ACE) on a server object.

To run the Add-ADPermission cmdlet, the account you use must be delegated the following:

Exchange Recipient Administrator role
