Set-ACMEVault do not recognize the Force command

[BastianFie]

The documentation here said that Set-ACMEVault would accept the force command. However when I try the following:

Set-ACMEVault -BaseService LetsEncrypt-STAGING -Alias Staging -VaultProfile $VaultProfile -Force

I get the error message:

Set-ACMEVault : Missing an argument for parameter 'Force'. Specify a parameter of type 'System.Boolean' and try again.

also other tests with true or 1 caused similar issues:

Set-ACMEVault -BaseService LetsEncrypt-STAGING -Alias Staging -VaultProfile $VaultProfile -Force true

Set-ACMEVault : Cannot convert 'System.String' to the type 'System.Boolean' required by parameter 'Force'.

Maybe try -Force $true . The documentation writes "-Force < Boolean >" so a Boolean must me specified, $true or $false. Just "True" is as string, text.
If it was written as a "Switch" instead of a "Boolean", the parameter could be used just by specifying the parameter -Force.

Hi, thanks for the tip with $true. I will give that a try as well. But the "-Force" as mentioned by you is however not working as written above
