+# === Parameters
+# [login]
+#   The login for which the permission will be manage.
+#
+# [permissions]
+#   An array of permissions you would like managed. i.e. ['SELECT', 'INSERT', 'UPDATE', 'DELETE']
+#
+# [state]
+#   The state you would like the permission in.  Accepts 'GRANT', 'DENY', 'REVOKE' Please note that REVOKE equates to absent and will default to database and system level permissions.
+#
+# [instance]
+#   The name of the instance where the user and database exists. Defaults to 'MSSQLSERVER'
