Until now all of my blogging about the Horizon api’s was about consuming the SOAP api using PowerCLI. Since a couple of releases Horizon also has a REST api and since 7.12 we are also able to change some settings using that. So now it’s time for me to dive… Continue reading
Another month down in the Corona quarantaine. That doesn’t mean that the engineers didn’t work on flings. More the opposite since I can’t remember having to go to page 2 on the site to see all of the new releases and updates. I see four new releases and nine updated… Continue reading
A while ago I blogged about adding an Instant Clone administrator using the api’s. I never looked at creating a linked clone domain administrator though so let’s do that. When checking the services near the bottom we see a service called ViewComposerDomainAdministrator Now let’s check the available methods The difference… Continue reading

Let’s start with the local variety. $queryService = New-Object VMware.Hv.QueryServiceService $defn = New-Object… Continue reading
First of all my excuses for not posting more last month. It was a short but very busy month so I just couldn’t find the time for that. The people behind VMware flings have bee busy though with one new fling and seven updates ones. New is Pallas (for managing… Continue reading
After years of contracting a new challenge lays ahead for me in the vendor space. Until now I have always been on either the customer or partner side of things but was always curious how things would be from a vendor perspective. Recently I saw an opportunity at ControlUP passing… Continue reading
Here we go again with the new and updated flings for January 2020. It’s been a busy month for me including a visit to Israel but more on that in a future blog post. There have been three new releases in January with the App Volumes Migration Utility, vSphere Software… Continue reading
