Automated / scripted / unattended / DSC installation of Power BI Report Server ?

[BRE]

Hi,

Is there any way to make an unattended installation of on prem PowerBI report server ?
Like a DSC Desired State Configuration module for PowerBI report server, or any scripted alternative to automated the provisioning in a Config As Code way ?

Thanks

It looks like the SQlServerDsc team is considering this as a new resource:

Yes. If you run the setup from command line with /? there is a dialog explaining the parameters for running an unattended install. Note that some configuration is required after setup (to set the database connection and URL reservations) that can be done through rsconfig.exe.

If I have a registered version, how do I retrieve the PID?

This PowerShell script should return the ProductId you may have to sift through the results a bit:

get-wmiobject Win32_Product | Format-Table IdentifyingNumber, Name, LocalPackage -AutoSize
