EXOInboundConnector¶

Parameters¶

Parameter	Attribute	DataType	Description	Allowed Values
Identity	Key	String	The Identity parameter specifies the outbound connector that you want to modify.
AssociatedAcceptedDomains	Write	StringArray[]	The AssociatedAcceptedDomains parameter specifies the accepted domains that the connector applies to, thereby limiting its scope. For example, you can apply the connector to a specific accepted domain in your organization, such as contoso.com.
CloudServicesMailEnabled	Write	Boolean	The CloudServicesMailEnabled parameter specifies whether the connector is used for hybrid mail flow between an on-premises Exchange environment and Microsoft Office 365. Specifically, this parameter controls how certain internal X-MS-Exchange-Organization-* message headers are handled in messages that are sent between accepted domains in the on-premises and cloud organizations. These headers are collectively known as cross-premises headers. DO NOT USE MANUALLY!
Comment	Write	String	The Comment parameter specifies an optional comment.
ConnectorSource	Write	String	The ConnectorSource parameter specifies how the connector is created. DO NOT CHANGE THIS!	`Default`, `Migrated`, `HybridWizard`
ConnectorType	Write	String	The ConnectorType parameter specifies a category for the domains that are serviced by the connector. Valid values are Partner and OnPremises	`Partner`, `OnPremises`
EFSkipIPs	Write	StringArray[]	The EFSkipIPs parameter specifies the source IP addresses to skip in Enhanced Filtering for Connectors when the EFSkipLastIP parameter value is $false.
EFSkipLastIP	Write	Boolean	The EFSkipLastIP parameter specifies the behavior of Enhanced Filtering for Connectors.
EFUsers	Write	StringArray[]	The EFUsers parameter specifies the recipients that Enhanced Filtering for Connectors applies to.
Enabled	Write	Boolean	Specifies whether connector is enabled.
RequireTls	Write	Boolean	The RequireTLS parameter specifies that all messages received by this connector require TLS transmission. Valid values for this parameter are $true or $false. The default value is $false. When the RequireTLS parameter is set to $true, all messages received by this connector require TLS transmission.
RestrictDomainsToCertificate	Write	Boolean	The RestrictDomainsToCertificate parameter specifies that Office 365 should identify incoming messages that are eligible for this connector by verifying that the remote server authenticates using a TLS certificate that has the TlsSenderCertificateName in the Subject.
RestrictDomainsToIPAddresses	Write	Boolean	The RestrictDomainsToIPAddresses parameter, when set to $true, automatically rejects mail from the domains specified by the SenderDomains parameter if the mail originates from an IP address that isn't specified by the SenderIPAddresses parameter.
SenderDomains	Write	StringArray[]	The SenderDomains parameter specifies the remote domains from which this connector accepts messages, thereby limiting its scope. You can use a wildcard character to specify all subdomains of a specified domain, as shown in the following example: .contoso.com. However, you can't embed a wildcard character, as shown in the following example: domain..contoso.com.
SenderIPAddresses	Write	StringArray[]	The SenderIPAddresses parameter specifies the remote IP addresses from which this connector accepts messages.
TlsSenderCertificateName	Write	String	The TlsSenderCertificateName parameter specifies the certificate used by the sender's domain when the RequireTls parameter is set to $true. Valid input for the TlsSenderCertificateName parameter is an SMTP domain.
TreatMessagesAsInternal	Write	Boolean	The TreatMessagesAsInternal parameter specifies an alternative method to identify messages sent from an on-premises organization as internal messages. You should only consider using this parameter when your on-premises organization doesn't use Exchange.
Ensure	Write	String	Specifies if this Outbound connector should exist.	`Present`, `Absent`
Credential	Write	PSCredential	Credentials of the Exchange Global Admin
ApplicationId	Write	String	Id of the Azure Active Directory application to authenticate with.
TenantId	Write	String	Id of the Azure Active Directory tenant used for authentication.
CertificateThumbprint	Write	String	Thumbprint of the Azure Active Directory application's authentication certificate to use for authentication.
CertificatePassword	Write	PSCredential	Username can be made up to anything but password will be used for CertificatePassword
CertificatePath	Write	String	Path to certificate used in service principal usually a PFX file.
ManagedIdentity	Write	Boolean	Managed ID being used for authentication.
AccessTokens	Write	StringArray[]	Access token used for authentication.
