I'm running the below command to connect to vCloud Director using PowerShell
Connect-CIServer -Server "company.com.au" -User "username" -Password "password" -Org "testorg"
However, it is giving me error like below:
Connect-CIServer : 20/09/2019 2:13:12 PM Connect-CIServer
Unable to connect to vCloud Server 'https://company.com.au:443/api/'. The
server returned the following: Unauthorized: ''.

Unfortunately, not much information is given, I can login to the UI by the same credentials but not on command line?
I had similar issue when I was trying to login to VCentre, I got it working by ignoring certificates. Not sure if for VCloud Server,I am facing same issue?
Set-PowerCLIConfiguration -InvalidCertificateAction Ignore -Confirm:$false
Works well when I drop -Org parameter! so the command which worked for me to login to Cloud Director is as below:
Connect-CIServer -Server "company.com.au" -User "username" -Password "password"
