    Hi I want to be able to make life easier and create some power shell scripts so that who ever runs then, it prompts them just to in put, the variables 

    eg:  set-MailboxPermission -Identity user1 -User users2 -AccessRight FullAccess -InheritanceType All -Automapping $false

    basically i want it to prompt for  to enter user1 and user 2, rather than people amanding eth scripts and then copy and pasting it.
    Any Ideas?
    I have tried this but it doesn't work

    $user = Read-Host "Mailbox That you are giving access to"
    $identity = Read-Host "User who wants access"
    set-MailboxPermission -Identity $identity -User $user -AccessRight FullAccess -InheritanceType All -Automapping $false

    $identity = Read-Host "Mailbox That you are giving access to

    $user = "Read-Host "User who wants access"

    set-MailboxPermission -Identity $identity -User $user -AccessRight FullAccess -InheritanceType All -Automapping $false

    This should do,you were giving access the other way

    Thanks but when I save that as a powershell file, and then copy the file path in to the Exchange management Console, it doesn't actually run,
    it just goes to the next line, to enter a new command?

    save the file as .ps1 and go to the path of the file and run like below

    D:\scripts\./test.ps1

    Hi,

    From your description, I would like to clarify that you need to use the following cmdlet to grant one user full access to another's mailbox. Use "Add-MailboxPermission" not "Set-MailboxPermission".

    Add-MailboxPermission -Identity "user1" -User user2 -AccessRights FullAccess -InheritanceType All

    Hope this can be helpful to you.

    Best regards,
