Hi @Efff dd,

The following code is an example of a DSC configuration script, which contains the property definition of the website, you can refer to it:

Configuration WebsiteConfig
{
    Import-DscResource -ModuleName PSDesiredStateConfiguration

    Node localhost
    {
        WindowsFeature IIS
        {
            Ensure = "Present"
            Name   = "Web-Server"
        }

        WindowsFeature ASPNET45
        {
            Ensure = "Present"
            Name   = "Web-Asp-Net45"
        }

        xWebsite Site
        {
            Ensure          = "Present"
            Name            = "example"
            State           = "Started"
            PhysicalPath    = "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\example"
            BindingInfo     = MSFT_xWebBindingInformation
            {
                Protocol    = "http"
                Port        = "80"
                IPAddress   = "*"
                HostName    = "example.abc.com"
            }
            MimeMap         = @(
                @{
                    Extension  = ".htm"
                    MimeType   = "text/html"
                },
                @{
                    Extension  = ".xml"
                    MimeType   = "text/xml"
                }
            )
            ApplicationPool = "exampleAppPool"
        }

        xWebAppPool exampleAppPool
        {
            Ensure          = "Present"
            Name            = "exampleAppPool"
            ManagedRuntimeVersion = "v4.0"
            ManagedPipelineMode   = "Integrated"
        }
    }
}

WebsiteConfig -OutputPath "C:\DSC\Configs"

This code defines a website named "example", uses the application pool "exampleAppPool", and adds two MIME type mappings here.
