Microsoft ADFS reference: Modifies registration settings for an OAuth 2.0 client registered with AD FS. The syntax and selected example below are adapted from the pinned Windows Server 2025 reference. Module availability, target configuration and delegated permissions determine whether it can run in your environment. Documentation and parameter text: Microsoft, CC BY 4.0; formatting adapted by Cmdlet World. No execution testing is claimed.
Use an account with the target resource permissions documented for Set-AdfsClient. Modifying administrative cmdlets may require elevation or delegated administration. This catalog does not assert that ordinary users can execute the command.

Parameters
-ADUserPrincipalName
Specifies an Active Directory user principal name.
-ClientId
Specifies a string. The cmdlet modifies the OAuth 2.0 client registration information with the identifier that you specify.
-Confirm
Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
-Description
Specifies a description. The cmdlet modifies the OAuth 2.0 client registration information with the description that you specify.
-Force
Forces the command to run without asking for user confirmation.
-JWTSigningCertificateRevocationCheck
The acceptable values for this parameter are: - None - CheckEndCert - CheckEndCertCacheOnly - CheckChain - CheckChainCacheOnly - CheckChainExcludeRoot - CheckChainExcludeRootCacheOnly
-LogoutUri
Specifies the logout URI for the OAuth 2.0 client to register with the AD FS. When AD FS initiates a logout it redirects the client's user-agent to this URI by rendering this URI in an iframe. The value of this parameter must be an absolute URI, may include a query component, and must not include a fragment component. This parameter is available with the Windows Update KB4038801 installed.
-Name
Specifies a name. The cmdlet modifies the OAuth 2.0 client registration information with the name that you specify.
-PassThru
Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.
-RedirectUri
Specifies one or more redirection URIs. The cmdlet modifies the OAuth 2.0 client registration information with the redirection URIs that you specify. The OAuth 2.0 client uses the redirection URI when the client requests authorization to access a resource secured by AD FS. You may register multiple redirection URIs for a single client identifier. The redirection URI must be a valid URI. The redirection URI specified by the client must already be registered with AD FS and must correspond to the client identifier for that OAuth 2.0 client, in order for the client to be authorized to access the resource. If the client ID and redirection URI correspond to a pre-registered OAuth 2.0 client and the resource owner authorized access by providing their credentials, AD FS will deliver the authorization code or access token by redirecting the client's user-agent back to this redirection URI. Ensure that the value of the RedirectUri parameter matches exactly the redirection URI that will be specified by the OAuth 2.0 client when requesting authorization, including trailing slashes (/), if required. Use more secure schemes, such as https, when you specify a redirection URI. For Windows Store applications that authenticate using the Windows Web Authentication Broker, use the 'ms-app://' scheme when registering a redirect URI. For example, ms-app://s-1-15-2-1101140336-4090662585-1905587327-262951538-2732256205-1306401843-4235927180/ is a redirect URI for a Windows Store application. If you are developing a Windows Store application, you can obtain the redirect URI for your application using the following code fragment: Uri redirectURI = Windows.Security.Authentication.Web.WebAuthenticationBroker.GetCurrentApplicationCallbackUri();
-TargetClient (required)
Specifies the registered OAuth 2.0 client to modify.
-TargetClientId (required)
Specifies the client identifier for the registered OAuth 2.0 client to modify.
-TargetName (required)
Specifies the name of the registered OAuth 2.0 client to modify.
-WhatIf
Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.
Prerequisites
Windows with the ADFS module and the Windows feature or management tools that provide it. Confirm target connectivity and version compatibility using the linked Microsoft reference.
Security considerations
This cmdlet changes system state. Review every target and parameter in the official reference, test outside production, and prepare an appropriate backup or rollback. Do not execute the example automatically.
