Description

Note

This cmdlet from the AADRM module is now deprecated. After July 15, 2020, this cmdlet name will be supported only as an alias to its replacement in the AIPService module.

For more information, see the overview page.

The Get-AadrmDocumentLog cmdlet returns protection information about the tracked documents for a specified user if that user protected documents (the Rights Management issuer) or was the Rights Management owner for documents, or protected documents were configured to grant access directly to the user. This cmdlet helps to answer the question "How are documents protected for a specified user?" The information returned includes:

  • The document content ID, with the document name if available.
  • The Rights Management owner and Rights Management issuer.
  • The users and groups that were granted access.
  • The protection template ID or specific usage rights that protects the document.
  • Any expiry, offline access, or revocation setting.

More information about the Rights Management owner and Rights Management issuer.

You can specify a start time and stop time of entries to include. The output is returned as a list of PowerShell objects in the PowerShell console.

You can alternatively use the document tracking site to get the protection information about the tracked documents. For more information, see the Tracking and revoking documents for users section in the Azure Information Protection client admin guide.

Examples

Example 1: Get protection information about all tracked documents for a user

PS C:\>Get-AadrmDocumentLog -UserEmail "test@contoso.com"

This command gets protection information about the tracked documents for a user who has the email address of "test@contoso.com" and that user is the Rights Management issuer or Rights Management owner for the document, or the document was configured to grant access to that user.

Example 2: Get protection information about tracked documents for a user, for a specific time period

PS C:\>Get-AadrmDocumentLog -UserEmail "test@contoso.com" -FromTime "01/01/2018 00:00:00" -ToTime "01/31/2018 23:59:59"

This command is the same as the previous example except that results are limited to documents that were protected within a specific time period by using the FromTime and ToTime parameters. In this example, the time period is all days in January 2018, using the US date format.

Example 3: Get protection information about all tracked documents for a user and save the results to a .csv file

PS C:\>$documentLogs = Get-AadrmDocumentLog -UserEmail "test@microsoft.com"
PS C:\>$documentLogs | Export-Csv 'C:\Temp\DocumentLog.csv' -NoTypeInformation

The first command gets the protection information about the tracked documents for a user who has the email address of "test@contoso.com" and that user is the Rights Management issuer or Rights Management owner for the document, or the document was configured to grant access to that user. The information is saved in a variable.

The second command then uses the Export-Csv cmdlet to convert the protection information into .csv format, and saves it to the C:\Temp\DocumentLog.csv file.
