I am working with JAMF - the Apple IT management application.  I am connecting to the Classic API (RESTful) using PowerShell (v4 and v5).  

I am capturing the name, id, serial_number, model, model_identifier, and model_display from the /mobiledevices endpoint.  I also need to capture the department field from the  /mobiledevices/id/{id}/subset/location subset - where {id} is the id captured in the first endpoint.

Re:  https://developer.jamf.com/#/mobiledevices

The results will be used to populate a different application either through SOAP or direct database updates. TBD.  We may also have to correlate the results with an Active Directory and so I thought PowerShell would be a good scripting base.  I come from a hodge-podge of scripting and admin backgrounds and only have a passing knowledge in PowerShell.

I still have problems with data structure objects and also converting my structured background to pipeline thinking.

Here is what I have:

# Authentication parameters
###########################
$RESTAPIServer = "test.jamfcloud.somewhere"

$RESTAPIUser = "WillyWonka"
$RESTAPIPassword = " OompaLoompas@r3it!"

$BaseURL = "https://" + $RESTAPIServer + "/JSSResource/mobiledevices"
$Header = @{"Authorization" = "Basic <ToBase64 string goes here>"}
$Type = "application/json;charset=UTF-8"
#--------------------------#

# Get all mobile devices
########################
Try 
{
$MobileDeviceResponse = Invoke-Restmethod -Uri $BaseURL  -Method GET -ContentType
