So looks like the WhatIf flag will prevent a POST from taking place - this is going to take rework to somehow not run the "WhatIf" until the end of the script. Either that or it may not be possible altogether.

I'll work with some of the internal team and discuss and comment when I have a solution.

Will change the flag to something else and will behave as originally intended in which it will output to the CLI the remediation tasks that would take place if you were to run it without the flag.

Will link the release to this ticket and closed once its been released.

Resolved issue by changing the flag to "TestRun"

This will be available in the next release and this ticket will be closed upon the release being published.
