When you have to update your AD credentials, you then have to go in and update your password for all the datasources and subscriptions, in SSRS, that are owned by you.
I’m trying to automate this with a PS script. What I have so far is…
script to come…
Line 64 is where I’m getting the error…
Cannot find an overload for "GetSubscriptionProperties" and the argument count: "6".

At this point I have only gotten to the subscription piece, and I am stuck for now. Any guidance on how to accomplish this would be great!!
Thanks!
I changed the variables that are used in the GetSubscriptionProperties call to:
$ExtensionSettings = ''
$ExtensionRow = ''
$Description = ''
$Active = ''
$Status = ''
$EventType = ''
$MatchData = ''
$Parameters = ''
And then called the method like:
$details = $reporting.GetSubscriptionProperties($Subscription.SubscriptionID, [REF]$ExtensionSettings, [REF]$Description, [REF]$Active, [REF]$Status, [REF]$EventType, [REF]$MatchData, [REF]$ParametersValue)
and I got this error…

I’ve also tried setting the initialized variables as:
##Initialize Variable Types required for GetSubscription call
$ExtensionSettings = new-object -TypeName ReportingService2010.ExtensionSettings
$ExtensionRow = new-object -TypeName ReportingService2010.ExtensionSettings
$Description = new-object -TypeName System.String -argumentList ("")
$Active = new-object -TypeName ReportingService2010.ActiveState
$Status = new-object -TypeName System.String -argumentList ("")
$EventType = new-object -TypeName System.String -argumentList ("")
$MatchData = new-object -TypeName System.String -argumentList ("")
$Parameters = new-object -TypeName ReportingService2010.ParameterValue
and the error is:
