Description
This cmdlet gets the limiting collection for a Configuration Manager collection. Except for the All Systems and All Users and User Groups collections, all collections have a parent collection that limit their membership. The limiting collection establishes the resources that you can add to this collection with membership rules.
For more information, see View collection relationships.
Examples
Example 1: Get the limiting collection by pipeline object
Get-CMCollection -Name "All Users" | Get-CMCollectionDependency
Example 2: Get the limiting collection by ID
This example is functionally the same as the first, where the built-in All Users collection typically has ID SMS00002.
Get-CMCollectionDependency -Id "SMS00002"
