This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -InformationAction, -InformationVariable, -OutVariable, -OutBuffer, -PipelineVariable, -Verbose, -WarningAction, and -WarningVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters.

This command excludes fixed roles like db_datareader by default, and will always return $null if a fixed role is specified as Name.

If specifying -ErrorAction 'SilentlyContinue' then the command will silently ignore if the database (parameter DatabaseName) is not present or the database principal is not present. In such case the command will return $null. If specifying -ErrorAction 'Stop' the command will throw an error if the database or database principal is missing.
