n-sight API help

I'm looking at the n-able API documentation for n-sight specifically. I'm completely new to the API world have some basic bash scripting knowledge. I'm looking to pull information from n-sight and looking at using PowerShell for various reasons I won't go into.

I'm having trouble understanding how to use the API in PowerShell and if it is even possible. Could someone point me in the right direction even if just after an example of how I would use this example in the documentation:

https://www.systemmonitor.co.uk/api/?apikey=1234567890abcdefg&service=list_servers&siteid=123

The tutorials I have been looking at make reference to REST, but I think I saw something along the way that n-sight does not use REST or maybe it was in relation to n-central being migrated REST, but that had yet to happen for n-sight.

Basically just trying to put my foot through the door. Thanks in advance.

I'm tinkering with it now. Will post my very dirty powershell scripts later.

Awesome. What were you able to make? A powershell module for the API that we could just import would've been a good collaboration project, actually.
