[<CommonParameters>] Description
The Get-CMSoftwareMeteringRule cmdlet gets one or more software metering rules in Configuration Manager. You can use this cmdlet to get rules to pass to other cmdlets, such as the Enable-CMSoftwareMeteringRule cmdlet or the Remove-CMSoftwareMeteringRule cmdlet.
Software metering monitors and collects software usage data from Configuration Manager clients, such as when clients began using a particular software program and how long users have worked with that software. You can create software metering rules that specify which software to monitor.
You can specify rules by ID or by product name.
