NOTES

just saw this and just today was finding some issue with Update-fogobject The issue appears to be with the dynamic parameter variable I have in the function for the coreobjecttype. For some reason it is working when you call the function and brings up all the coreobject type choices but then the variable is being set to null when the function is running. Meaning that when function builds the uri it only gets http://fogserver/fog//id/edit instead of http://fogserver/fog/coreObjectType/id/edit

So one workaround I will try to publish by the end of the day is adding an optional uri parameter to that function so that you can manually override it when neccesarry. Also I should really add more documentation to each of the functions instead of just having it all under Invoke-fogapi

I also will add a try/catch block to invoke-fogapi for when invoke-restmethod fails and have it try invoke-webrequest.
