WhatsUp Gold PowerShell module

• 

  Getting the deviceID from WUG API

Inspiration

With v19.2 release of Whatsup Gold, there are now many different API endpoints that can provide and/or update data. A lot of WhatsUp Gold customers are not familiar enough with REST APIs in order to do anything with them. The goal here is to make using the API more simple for any customer regardless of API experience.
