function Start-DbaEndpoint {
    <#
        .SYNOPSIS
            Starts endpoints on a SQL Server instance.
 
        .DESCRIPTION
            Starts endpoints on a SQL Server instance.
 
        .PARAMETER SqlInstance
            SQL Server name or SMO object representing the SQL Server to connect to. This can be a collection and receive pipeline input to allow the function
            to be executed against multiple SQL Server instances.
 
        .PARAMETER SqlCredential
            Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Windows and SQL Authentication supported. Accepts credential objects (Get-Credential)
 
        .PARAMETER Endpoint
            Only start specific endpoints.
 
        .PARAMETER AllEndpoints
            Start all endpoints on an instance, ignoring the packaged endpoints: AlwaysOn_health, system_health, telemetry_xevents.
 
        .PARAMETER InputObject
            Internal parameter to support piping from Get-Endpoint
 
        .PARAMETER WhatIf
            Shows what would happen if the command were to run. No actions are actually performed.
 
        .PARAMETER Confirm
            Prompts you for confirmation before executing any changing operations within the command.
 
        .PARAMETER EnableException
            By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
            This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
            Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.
