I’m trying, and on the whole failing, to do stuff with ansible.windows.win_dsc:

To get the list of ‘parameters’ for the particular DSC resource you’re mucking about with you can do this:

Get-DscResource sqlrs | select -expand properties


Name                         PropertyType   IsMandatory Values
----                         ------------   ----------- ------
DatabaseInstanceName         [string]              True {}
DatabaseServerName           [string]              True {}
InstanceName                 [string]              True {}
DependsOn                    [string[]]           False {}
Encrypt                      [string]             False {Mandatory, Optional, Strict}
PsDscRunAsCredential         [PSCredential]       False {}
ReportServerReservedUrl      [string[]]           False {}
ReportServerVirtualDirectory [string]             False {}
ReportsReservedUrl           [string[]]           False {}
ReportsVirtualDirectory      [string]             False {}
RestartTimeout               [UInt32]             False {}
SuppressRestart              [bool]               False {}
UseSsl                       [bool]               False {}
