This is because, like all other Skype and Teams policy-related cmdlets, the process to remove a user from an assigned user policy is simply to run the same cmdlet again, but instead assign the user to a $null policy. Notice that there is no companion cmdlet for the ‘Grant-’ cmdlet.

Alongside this cmdlet is the requisite Grant-CsTeamsIPPhonePolicy cmdlet which is used to assign custom policies to individual user accounts.Ĭurrently there is a very limited set of parameters available to actually control phone behavior, but the groundwork has been laid to start defining unique policies and then assigning these polices to user accounts to control their IP phone experiences.

This addresses a long overdue customer request to assign unique parameter values to different categories of phones, be it by location, department, use-case, etc. The most obvious change between the Skype IP Phone functionality and the what now exists for Teams devices is there is also a New-CsTeamsIPPhonePolicy cmdlet which allows the creation of custom policies in addition to the default global policy (which can be modified if desired). At the time of posting this article Microsoft has not yet published any official documentation for this cmdlet, but the functionality is already present in Office 365 tenants. With Microsoft Teams a new cmdlet named Set-Cs TeamsIPPhonePolicy has been introduced, which is still included in the Skype for Business Online PowerShell module alongside all other Teams platform administrative cmdlets. That cmdlet only controls a single globally-applicable set of parameters though, so it was not possible to create different sets of behaviors which could be applied to different groupings of phones. This article introduces the current capabilities of a new PowerShell cmdlet created specifically to manage the user experience of these devices.įor some time the Set-CsIPPhonePolicy cmdlet has been available in the Skype for Business Online PowerShell module, which initially only applied to Lync Phone Edition, but was later also used with 3PIP-qualified devices (like VVX phones). As Microsoft and their certified device partners gear up to bring more native Microsoft Teams IP Phones to the market the management and customization of the device experience is also being expanded upon.
