# Sample code to demonstrate PowerShell 2.0 integration with Lab Manager APIs. Majority of code can be omitted if properly signed SSL certificates are used.
# Added a function to connect to the Lab Manager’s internal API and some examples code of how to work with it. The SOAP API provides a VMware supported set of automation functionality however the set is very limited in comparison to what is provided by the VMware unsupported internal which provides far more automation ability.
# Lab Manager internal API help files can be obtained here: http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-8603 , and here: http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-10608 . The Lab Manager API community discussion forums can be found here: http://communities.vmware.com/community/developer/forums/labmanager .
