How to set report description via API?

I notice that there is a Description field for reports in the Power BI service (under Settings) but I can't see way to set this via the API? It woudl be useful to set, for example, a deployment ID etc. here.

These guys at ChristianSteven PBRS have a solution. 

The PBRS API is used for collaboration and other system functions. PBRS API allows you to run schedules as well as control the scheduling services. Here is how to install and configure it if needed.
