Can't find addfoldermapping mething after using connect-srmserver
I do the following
connect-viserver vcenter
connect-srmserver -user XX -password XX -remoteuser XX -remotepassword XX
$api = $global:DefaultSrmServers[0].ExtensionData
Based on the documentation, I was expecting to access $api.inventorymapping.addfoldermapping() but there is no inventorymapping right under api. If I go to $api.content.inventorymapping it's just a MoREF, no functions. If I go to $api.retrievecontent().inventorymappin it's a MoREF as well.
How do I access the inventory mapping api?
I am using SRM 6.1 with PowerCLI 6.3 R1

Isn't that method named ListInventoryMappings?
If you do $api | gm you should see the available methods

Thanks for the response, unfortunately I have been using the $api | gm approach and haven't found the functions.
The listinventorymappings is unfortunately not what I was looking for, it only returns the inventory mappings. It could be found at $api.protection.listinventorymappings()
