Hi,
Is it possible to open vm console through api ?
In powercli , we use Open-VMConsoleWindow to perform this task.
Is there a method in api through which the open vm console can be done ?
please suggest some ways....Examples would be of great help !!
Thanks.

This cmdlet works through the VMRC webclient plugin, as is documented in Opening the Virtual Machine Remote Console through PowerCLI

This method pops up a message box saying :
