Adds a new scope to the site.

Syntax

<!--NeedCopy-->

Detailed Description

New-AdminScope adds a new scope object to the site.

A scope represents a collection of objects. Scopes are used to group objects in a way that is relevant to the organization; for example, the set of delivery groups used by the Sales team.

You can create objects in particular scopes by specifying the -Scope parameter of a New- cmdlet for an object that can be scoped. You can then modify the contents of a scope with Add-<Noun>Scope and Remove-<Noun>Scope cmdlets from the correpsonding PowerShell snap-ins.

To assign a scope to an administrator, combine it with a role and then assign this pair (also known as a ‘right’) to an administrator. See Add-AdminRight for further details.

The identifier of the new scope is chosen automatically.

Parameters

Name Specifies the name of the scope. Each scope in a site must have a unique name. true true (ByPropertyName)  
Description Specifies the description of the scope. false true (ByPropertyName)  
LoggingId Specifies the identifier of the high-level operation this cmdlet call forms a part of. Citrix Studio and Director typically create high-level operations. PowerShell scripts can also wrap a series of cmdlet calls in a high-level operation by way of the Start-LogHighLevelOperation and Stop-LogHighLevelOperation cmdlets. false false  
BearerToken Specifies the bearer token assigned to the calling user false false  
AdminAddress Specifies the address of a XenDesktop controller the PowerShell snap-in will connect to. You can provide this as a host name or an IP address. false false Localhost. Once a value is provided by any cmdlet, this value becomes the default.
