Remote Linked Mailboxes | Enforce License rule (New)

Limit AD scope to this domain or OU

This setting defines the search query scope.

To improve query performance, limit the scope to specific OU.

Query criteria

Microsoft 365 query criteria

Query criteria are sent with the query and may improve query performance.

Apply to users created in last hours

Specify an integer value that is defined the number of hours.

Exclude MS365 disabled users

This setting allows to exclude Microsoft 365 disabled users from the rule scope or to include them.

Exclude AD disabled users

This setting allows to exclude AD-disabled users from the rule scope or to include them.

Microsoft 365 filter

To hide unwanted data based on criteria, not supported by the Active Directory and Microsoft 365 query criteria above, set the filtering conditions here.

Other Query Settings

Properties to display

To display additional Microsoft 365 properties for each object found by the query, add those properties to the list.

Sort by

Sort result objects list.

Maximum number of users

The maximum number of users returned from Microsoft 365 by default is 2000.

MS Graph query condition (OData)

By default Query criteria are used. But when the MS Graph query condition is specified, it overrides the Query criteria setting.

Example: find all Microsoft 365 user accounts with displayname starting with 'Adam.'

(startswith(displayName,'Adam'))

Example: Update AD users, created in the last ten days.

1. Add this initialization script:

{$global:DatePeriod = (Get-Date).AddDays(-10)}

2. Use $DatePeriod variable in query criteria builder:
