Thanks, i think in addition to this, to find out FI model, we can do -
Get-UcsNetworkElement
I kind of found this from another question in the forum. So this helps, thanks. Is there any other way of doing this through API ?

What are you looking for? The API remains a constant across the various tools that can be used. PowerTool is one. Python can be used. You can use a high level programming language to call the API. Cisco publishes the API so customers and partners can write to it. So could you clarify what you are looking to do?

I was looking more for rest api call, but i realize that, that's not supported today. This is good information, thanks for your inputs.

Ok, that makes sense. Good suggestion - I'll pass it on.
