Some custom policies in Skype for Business Online

Question

At the last Ignite conference custom policies for SfBO was presented e.g. CsConferencing &amp; CsClient. Last Saturday&nbsp; the New/Set-CsConferencing &amp; Client policy cmdlets showed up. So, I created a new CsConferencingPolicy and then attempted to set the AllowIPAudio &amp; AllowIPVideo parameters to $false (their defaults are $true) and I was unable to set them. The error retuned by PowerShell is attached - the error in its self is rather puzzling any how does anyone know if some of the parameters in these policies are locked for newly created policies?&nbsp; Btw I was able to change some parameters relating to file transfer sucessfully.

Hello&nbsp;Bummi.&nbsp; I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues with&nbsp;applying Custom Policies.&nbsp; There are a subset of policies that are configurable&nbsp;but&nbsp;some of the policy updates require a client update.&nbsp; Others can be set with no clinet update as you have discovered.&nbsp; I'm following up with Siunie (the presenter on Custom Policies @ Ignite!) and will provide an update as soon as I hear back.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Microsoft has posted an updated article on Update on Custom Policies in Skype for Business Online which can be found here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Skype-for-Business-Blog/Update-on-Custom-Policies-in-Skype-for-Business-Online/ba-p/69850

Hey Bunmi&nbsp;It's not allowed to modify these both attributes on an existing conferencing policy. Create a new one with this two parameters.&nbsp;&nbsp;New-CsConferencingPolicy -Identity "Common_NoAV" -AllowIPAudio $false -AllowIPVideo $false&nbsp;Cheers Andy

Hey Andy,&nbsp;Thanks for the reply. I did actually create a new CsConferencingPolicy (a screen is in the attached jpg on the original post). The behaviour I encountered was the inability to change some of the parameters in the newly created policy using the set cmdlet, in particular the ones I mentioned in the orginal post.&nbsp;Rgds Bunmi
