Remove‑SqlDscRSUnattendedExecutionAccount - dsccommunity/SqlServerDsc GitHub Wiki

SYNOPSIS

Removes the unattended execution account from SQL Server Reporting Services.

SYNTAX

Remove-SqlDscRSUnattendedExecutionAccount [-Configuration] <Object> [-PassThru] [-Force]
 [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

Removes the unattended execution account from SQL Server Reporting Services or Power BI Report Server by calling the RemoveUnattendedExecutionAccount method on the MSReportServer_ConfigurationSetting CIM instance.

After removing the unattended execution account, reports that require credentials but have no user context (such as scheduled subscriptions with data sources that require credentials) will fail.

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

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

Get-SqlDscRSConfiguration -InstanceName 'SSRS' | Remove-SqlDscRSUnattendedExecutionAccount

Removes the unattended execution account from the Reporting Services instance.

EXAMPLE 2

Get-SqlDscRSConfiguration -InstanceName 'SSRS' | Remove-SqlDscRSUnattendedExecutionAccount -Force

Removes the unattended execution account without confirmation.

EXAMPLE 3

Get-SqlDscRSConfiguration -InstanceName 'SSRS' | Remove-SqlDscRSUnattendedExecutionAccount -PassThru

Removes the unattended execution account and returns the configuration CIM instance.
