Hi there,

 

Could you confirm if you are trying to run this command for Exchange Online. If yes the New-mailboxexportrequest parameter will not work.

 

This option is still not available in Exchange Online

 

Thanks

Kindly Mark the reply as answer if find helpful.

As Robin said, these commands do not work for Exchange Online.

 

Instead, create a Content Search (also referred to as eDiscovery) through the Security and Compliance Center. Once you have a search, you can export the content to PST.
