# Quick reference guide

The following code snippet shows the basic search, get, create and delete operations that are possible with the module

```powershell
# Import the module
Import-Module LithnetRMA;

# Connect to the FIM service instance
Set-ResourceManagementClient -BaseAddress http://fimsvc:5727;

# Get a user by its account name
$obj = Get-Resource -ObjectType Person -AttributeName AccountName -AttributeValue ryan;

# Write all the attributes of the user to the screen
Write-Host $obj;

# Set a new value for the JobTitle attribute
$obj.JobTitle = "Tester";

# Save the changes to the Resource Management Service
Save-Resource $obj

# Search for a set
Search-Resources -XPath "/Set[DisplayName = 'Administrators']"

# Search for a set and return all attributes in the set object type
$set = Search-Resources -XPath "/Set[DisplayName = 'Administrators']" -ExpectedObjectClass Set
Write-Host $set

# Search for a set and return only the computed member and explicit member attributes in the set object type
Search-Resources -XPath "/Set[DisplayName = 'Administrators']" -AttributesToGet @("ComputedMember", "ExplicitMember")

# Delete a resource by a known ID
Remove-Resource 'cacfb5f3-4924-4b56-89ee-b6b0de3e36d5'

# Remove a resource by its reference using the pipeline
Get-Resource Person AccountName testuser | Remove-Resource

# Create a new user
$newObject = New-Resource -ObjectType Person
$newObject.AccountName = "testuser";
Save-Resource $newObject

# Get pending approvals
$pendingApprovals = Get-ApprovalRequest -Status Pending

# Approve pending approvals
Get-ApprovalRequest -Status Pending | Set-PendingApprovalRequest -Decision Approved -Reason "I said so!"

# Reject pending approvals
Get-ApprovalRequest -Status Pending | Set-PendingApprovalRequest -Decision Rejected -Reason "I said so!"
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.lithnet.io/resource-management-powershell/v1.0/help-and-support/quick-reference-guide.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
