Hi all,

I want to remove all of the role entries of a custom management role. For example, I create a role:
New-ManagementRole -Name 'test1' -Parent 'Mail Recipients'

Then, I want to remove all of the role entries in this role. Here is what I tried:
Get-ManagementRoleEntry "test1\*" | Remove-ManagementRoleEntry
I got the following error message:
======================

Cannot process argument transformation on parameter 'Identity'. Cannot convert value "test1" to type "Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.RoleEntryIdParameter". Error: "The format of the value you specified in the Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.RoleEntryIdParameter parameter isn't valid. Check the value, and then try again.
Parameter name: identity"
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidData: (test1:PSObject) [Remove-ManagementRoleEntry], ParameterBindin...mationException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : ParameterArgumentTransformationError,Remove-ManagementRoleEntry

=========================

Can someone help about the PowerShell script to achieve the goal?

PS1: It's in Exchange 2013 (I remember I encountered the same issue in 2010)
PS2: I don't have enough permissions. In other words, I cannot create a unscopedtoplevel management role. What I can do is to remove all of the role entries in the children role.

TIA 

Hi

How about just run

Get-ManagementRoleEntry "test1\*"

Will they display?

Cheers

No management role entries have been removed

Hi,

Did you ever sort this? I've got the same issue with Exchange Online .. following this TechNet article http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd297947(v=exchg.150).aspx

Hi,

Old thread, but here's how I resolved this:
(I know I'm using write-host, but it's just to get some sense of what it's working on since Verbose didn't do anything.)

$Entries = Get-ManagementRoleEntry "$roleName\*" | where {$ExEASCmdlets -notcontains $_.Name}
Write-Host -ForegroundColor Cyan "Working on $roleName ::"
$Entries | % { 
	Write-Host -ForegroundColor Green "Removing $($_.Identity + "\" + $_.Name)"
	Remove-ManagementRoleEntry -Identity ($_.Identity + "\" + $_.Name) -Confirm:$False
}

Some of the variables were defined earlier. In your case with the single Management Role, this should be enough:

$Entries = Get-ManagementRoleEntry "test1\*"
$Entries | % {
	Remove-ManagementRoleEntry -Identity ($_.Identity + "\" + $_.Name) -Confirm:$False
}
