function Invoke-DbaAgFailover {
    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
        Failover an availability group.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
       Failover an availability group.
 
    .PARAMETER SqlInstance
        The SQL Server instance. Server version must be SQL Server version 2012 or higher.
 
    .PARAMETER SqlCredential
        Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Accepts PowerShell credentials (Get-Credential).
 
        Windows Authentication, SQL Server Authentication, Active Directory - Password, and Active Directory - Integrated are all supported.
 
        For MFA support, please use Connect-DbaInstance..
 
    .PARAMETER AvailabilityGroup
        Only failover specific availability groups.
 
    .PARAMETER InputObject
        Enables piping from Get-DbaAvailabilityGroup
 
    .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 Force
        Force Failover and allow data loss
 
    .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.
