Tachyon v5.1 - Using - Application Programming Interface Lab Guide

This lab will teach you how to use the Tachyon Application Programming Interface (API). You will also learn how to create your own consumer using PowerShell. You should be familiar with the platform and how the instructions flow through the components. The student should have a solid understanding of Tachyon as well as a background in scripting.
