Additional Information

• Side note, the version jumped from xxxx.6.x to xxxx.9.x, this was an accident that I didn't notice till today (a week after release)... It should have been 2408.7.x. It was probably a typo or I just didn't see it after the tests of the new build and release system. Since there were already 500+ downloads on xxxx.9.2 I'm not going to go redoing them as xxxx.7.x. Apologies if anyone caught that and was confused.

2311.6.4

Typo bug fix there was a stray extra character.
Added switch for Set-FogSnapins called -repairBeforeAdd to allow running the repair before attempting to add.
Added in more try catch logic to Set-FogSnapins
Cleaned up release notes in manifest to just include the latest release to allow for faster import of module and updated master release notes format and building of master release notes in build script

Full Changelog: 2310.6.3...2311.6.4

2310.6.3

2310.6.3

Realized that I don't have an automated way in my build script to add aliases to module manifest (causes #9 )
Manually added aliases to the manifest and republishing so the various aliases actually work and its less likely to cause breaking changes for existing scripts using old method names.

This version can be installed from the powershell gallery https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/FogApi/2310.6.3

2310.6.2

2310.6.2 Release notes - bug fix and minor functionality additions

• Fixed issue where using Get-FogAssociatedSnapins could result in a 404 error if a host had a snapin association with a snapinid of 0
• Renamed Get-FogAssociatedSnapins to Get-FogHostAssociatedSnapins as it is getting them for the current or specified host, kept old name and some other names as aliases. Because a function name changed, made it a major version.
• Added a Get-FogSnapinAssociations to get all snapin associations on the server
• Added Repair-FogSnapinAssociations to find and fix any associations on the server that belong to non-existent hosts, or that have invalid hostids or snapinids that are 0 or negative
• Added checks for if a snapinid is 0 before getting the snapin record of an association in Get-FogHostAssociatedSnapins and when setting a snapin on a host in Set-FogSnapins to further prevent related errors

2303.5.33

FogAPI Powershell Module 2303.5.33

This version (released in March 2023 (2303) major version 5, revision 33) is a bugfix and minor enhancement release

See also https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/FogApi/2302.5.33
You can update the module with

Update-Module FogApi

Install for new systems with

Install-Module FogApi

Configure/connect the module to your fog server (for new installs, current installs don't need to update this) with

Set-FogServerSettings -interactive
#or you can define the parameters
Set-FogServerSettings -fogserver "fog-server-hostname-or-ip" -fogApiToken "yourFogServerAPITokenHere" -fogUserToken "yourFogUserTokenHere"

• Added a -exactNames switch to Set-FogSnapins so you can specify when -pkgList is a list of strings that exactly match, the default behavior is to use -match to find snapins that match the name which can result in multiple matches when finding the snapin ids which ends in an api call with an error. So if you use this function and run into issues, you can specify that -eq should be used for finding the snapins by name instead of -match See also
• Make set security of settings file have less output. I had an out-host call every time the security of the settings file was being checked or updated. This was a redundant output, but I kept it in -verbose mode.
• Added an icacls method for setting the settings file security in windows. The set-acl command requires a specific administrative se privilege, so if your user doesn't have it (i.e. not a local admin) this would result in an erroneous error, the icacls method is in a catch block after trying the set-acl method. See Set-FogServerSettingsFileSecurity
• Added example and notes to Update-FogObject concerning host updates where name isn't changing. Also added condition for a future change to location of fog log in windows
• Updated the theme of the docs page to mkdocs material and added a new (work in progress) logo/favicon to the docs page.
  (Fun Fact, My 3-year-old helped me make the icon)
