This cmdlet is available only in Security & Compliance PowerShell. For more information, see Security & Compliance PowerShell.

Use the Remove-DlpKeywordDictionary cmdlet to remove data loss prevention (DLP) keyword dictionaries from the Microsoft Purview compliance portal.

Syntax

Default (Default)

Remove-DlpKeywordDictionary
    [-Identity] <SensitiveInformationTypeIdParameter>
    [-Confirm]
    [-WhatIf]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

To use this cmdlet in Security & Compliance PowerShell, you need to be assigned permissions. For more information, see Permissions in the Microsoft Purview compliance portal.

Examples

Example 1

Remove-DlpKeywordDictionary -Identity "Financial Data"

This example removes the DLP keyword dictionary named Financial Data.

Example 2

Get-DlpKeywordDictionary | Foreach-Object { Remove-DlpKeywordDictionary -Identity $_.Name -confirm:$True }

This example removes all the DLP keyword dictionaries with a Confirm on each removal.

Parameters

-Confirm

Applicable: Security & Compliance

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.
