Set-TextMessagingAccount

This cmdlet is available in on-premises Exchange and in the cloud-based service. Some parameters and settings may be exclusive to one environment or the other.

The Set-TextMessagingAccount cmdlet allows a user to configure the text messaging settings on their own mailbox. An administrator can't use this cmdlet to configure the text messaging settings on another user's mailbox.

For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.

Description

When text messaging notifications are enabled on a mailbox, you can configure calendar notifications, voice mail notifications, and email notifications using an inbox rule.

To clear the text messaging settings from your own mailbox, use the Clear-TextMessagingAccount parameter.

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 2

Set-TextMessagingAccount -Identity 'JeffHay' -CountryRegionId US -MobileOperatorId 15001 -NotificationPhoneNumber +14255550199

Parameters

-Confirm

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.

  • Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
  • Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.

-CountryRegionId

The CountryRegionId parameter specifies the country/region that your mobile phone is registered in. Although this parameter accepts any valid ISO 3166-1 two-letter country code value (for example, AU for Australia), the following values correspond to the country/region selections that are available in the text messaging settings in Outlook on the web (formerly known as Outlook Web App):

  • US
  • CA

A reference for two-letter country codes is available at Country Codes List.

-DomainController

This parameter is available only in on-premises Exchange.

The DomainController parameter specifies the domain controller that's used by this cmdlet to read data from or write data to Active Directory. You identify the domain controller by its fully qualified domain name (FQDN). For example, dc01.contoso.com.

Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Exchange Server 2010, Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019

  • GUID
  • LegacyExchangeDN
  • SamAccountName
  • User ID or user principal name (UPN)

Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Exchange Server 2010, Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019, Exchange Online

-IgnoreDefaultScope

The IgnoreDefaultScope switch tells the command to ignore the default recipient scope setting for the Exchange PowerShell session, and to use the entire forest as the scope. You don't need to specify a value with this switch.

This switch enables the command to access Active Directory objects that aren't currently available in the default scope, but also introduces the following restrictions:

  • You can't use the DomainController parameter. The command uses an appropriate global catalog server automatically.
  • You can only use the DN for the Identity parameter. Other forms of identification, such as alias or GUID, aren't accepted.
