Set-SnipeitConsumable

Context

I need to check out an RFID badge blank (already added as a consumable in Snipe-IT) to every user upon account creation. I see the command Set-SnipeitConsumable which I thought may accomplish this, but it seems to perform the same function as New-SnipeitConsumable. Unless I am missing something, there is no way to assign a consumable via SnipeitPS.

Thanks!

Your Environment

• SnipeitPS Module version used: 1.10.220
• Operating System and PowerShell version: Windows Server 2016 Core / PS Version 5.1.17763.2268
• Snipe It version: v5.4.0

Expected Behavior

To be able to check out a consumable via PS.

Current Behavior

There seems to be no way currently to accomplish this task.

Thanks for reporting this, this feature is missing indeed. It seems that there's now api available to do this /consumables/:id/checkout

So this can be added, but I can't promise any timeframe for this. So PR is wellcome. :) It could be something like it done with accessories: Get-SnipeitConsumableOwner and Reset-SnipeitConsumableOwner . To keep commands work in same way with different entities.

In logger run it would make sense to combine all *owner commands to set-commands, as it's where people are first looking checkout/checkin functionality.

Awesome, glad to hear that it may be coming! It will be a giant help whenever it does come. Yeah I agree with keeping the commands in the same format - I was confused when typing that earlier lol but glad to see you were able to understand it.
