Initializes SQL Server Reporting Services.

Initialize-SqlDscRS [-Configuration] <Object> [-PassThru] [-Force] 
 [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

Initializes SQL Server Reporting Services or Power BI Report Server by calling the InitializeReportServer method on the MSReportServer_ConfigurationSetting CIM instance.

This command initializes the report server with the current configuration settings. The report server must have a database connection configured before initialization.

The configuration CIM instance can be obtained using the Get-SqlDscRSConfiguration command and passed via the pipeline.

Initializes the Reporting Services instance 'SSRS'.

Get-SqlDscRSConfiguration -InstanceName 'SSRS' | Initialize-SqlDscRS -Force

Initializes the Reporting Services instance without confirmation.

Get-SqlDscRSConfiguration -InstanceName 'SSRS' | Initialize-SqlDscRS -PassThru
