function ConvertHashtableToResource
{
PARAM($Hashtable)
END
{
$DefaultUri = "https://localhost:5725"
$ExportObject = New-Object Microsoft.ResourceManagement.Automation.ObjectModel.ExportObject
$ExportObject.Source = $DefaultUri
$ExportObject.ResourceManagementObject = New-Object Microsoft.ResourceManagement.Automation.ObjectModel.ResourceManagementObject
foreach($key in $Hashtable.Keys)
{
$value = $Hashtable[$key]
$newAttribute = New-Object Microsoft.ResourceManagement.Automation.ObjectModel.ResourceManagementAttribute
$newAttribute.AttributeName = $key
$newAttribute.Value = $value
$newAttribute.HasReference = 0
$newAttribute.IsMultiValue = 0
if($newAttribute.AttributeName -eq "ObjectID")
{
$ExportObject.ResourceManagementObject.ObjectIdentifier = $newAttribute.Value
}
if($newAttribute.AttributeName -eq "ObjectType")
{
$ExportObject.ResourceManagementObject.ObjectType = $newAttribute.Value
}
$ExportObject.ResourceManagementObject.IsPlaceholder = 0
if($ExportObject.ResourceManagementObject.ResourceManagementAttributes -eq $null)
{
$ExportObject.ResourceManagementObject.ResourceManagementAttributes = (,$newAttribute)

$ExportObject.ResourceManagementObject.ResourceManagementAttributes += $newAttribute
}
