-->This cmdlet is available in on-premises Exchange and in the cloud-based service. Some parameters and settings may be exclusive to one environment or the other.
Use the Set-UserPhoto cmdlet to configure the user photos feature that allows users to associate a picture with their account. User photos appear in on-premises and cloud-based client applications, such as Outlook on the web, Lync, Skype for Business, and SharePoint.
For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.
Syntax
Description
The user photos feature allows users to associate a picture with their account. User photos are stored in the user's Active Directory account and in the root directory of the user's Exchange mailbox. Administrators use the Set-UserPhoto cmdlet to configure user photos. Users can upload, preview, and save a user photo to their account by using the Outlook on the web Options page. When a user uploads a photo, a preview of the photo is displayed on the Outlook on the web Options page. This is the preview state, and creates the same result as running the Set-UserPhoto cmdlet using the Preview parameter. If the user clicks Save, the preview photo is saved as the user's photo. This is the same result as running the Set-UserPhoto -Save command or running both the Set-UserPhoto -Preview and Set-UserPhoto -Save commands. If the user cancels the preview photo on the Outlook on the web Options page, then the Set-UserPhoto -Cancel command is called.
A user photo must be set for a user before you can run the Get-UserPhoto cmdlet to view information about the user's photo. Otherwise, you'll get an error message saying the user photo doesn't exist for the specified user. Alternatively, you can run the Get-UserPhoto -Preview
command to view information about a preview photo.
Note: Changes to the user photo won't appear in SharePoint until the affected user visits their profile page (My Site) or any SharePoint page that shows their large thumbnail image.
You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.
- Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax:
-Confirm:$false
. - Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.
