Use the correct username else it does not work

We log into our vCD environment using our domain credentials however our OVDCs use local accounts as they belong to customers. I was getting the following error when the script was logging into the vCD environment:

Connect-CIServer : 19/02/2020 7:32:00 PM Connect-CIServer POST request for 'https://myvCDEnvironment.domain.com/api/sessions' resulted in 401 - Unauthorized ( Unauthorized). At C:\user\Get-VCDTenantReport.ps1:87 char:18

  • CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Connect-CIServer], CIException
  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : Cloud_ConnectivityServiceImpl_ConnectCloudServer_ConnectError,VMware.VimAutomation.Cloud.Commands.Cmdlets.ConnectCIServer

I found that I had to create a user in the OVDC tenancy first and then use that to logon and the script worked.
