Add-QlikTrigger always returns 400 Bad Request

I get a 400 Bad Request error when trying to use the Add-QlikTrigger function:

try replacing Get-QlikTask -filter "name eq 'Test task 2'" | Add-QlikTrigger -name 'After Test task 1' -OnSuccess (Get-QlikTask -filter "name eq 'Test task 1'") with Get-QlikTask -filter "name eq 'Test task 2'" | Add-QlikTrigger -name 'After Test task 1' -OnSuccess $($(Get-QlikTask -filter "name eq 'Test task 1'").id)

That didn't work. But it did point me in the right direction. Get-QlikTask doesn't by default return the task id. So the -full parameter needs to be added.

This one does work: Get-QlikTask -full -filter "name eq 'Test task 2'" | Add-QlikTrigger -name 'After Test task 1' -OnSuccess $($(Get-QlikTask -full -filter "name eq 'Test task 1'").id)

Looks like the documentation needs an update.
