 ## Requirements
 
-- a web server with PHP and cURL modules installed (tested on apache2 with PHP Version 5.6.1 and cURL 7.42.1)
+- a server with:
-- network connectivity between this web server and the server and port (normally TCP port 8443) where the UniFi Controller is running
+  - PHP **7.4.0** or higher (use version [1.1.83](https://github.com/Art-of-WiFi/UniFi-API-client/releases/tag/v1.1.83) 
+    for PHP 7.3.x and lower)
+  - PHP json and PHP cURL modules
+  - tested on Apache 2.4 with PHP 7.4.27 and cURL 7.60.0 and with PHP 8.3.11 and cURL 7.81.0
+- direct network connectivity between this server and the host and port (usually TCP port 8443 or port 443 for 
+  UniFi OS) where the UniFi Controller is running
+- you **must** use an **account with local access permissions** to access the UniFi Controller API through this class
+- do not use UniFi Cloud accounts and do not enable 2FA for the accounts that you use with this class
 
-## Installation ##
 
-You can use [Composer](#composer), [Git](#git) or simply [Download the Release](#download-the-release) to install the API client class.
+## UniFi OS Support
+
+Support for UniFi OS-based controllers has been added as of version 1.1.47. These devices have been verified to work:
+- UniFi Dream Router (UDR)
+- UniFi Dream Machine (UDM)
+- UniFi Dream Machine Pro (UDM PRO)
+- UniFi Cloud Key Gen2 (UCK G2), firmware version 2.0.24 or higher
+- UniFi Cloud Key Gen2 Plus (UCK G2 Plus), firmware version 2.0.24 or higher
+- UniFi Cloud Console, details [here](https://help.ui.com/hc/en-us/articles/4415364143511)
+- UniFi Express (UX)
+- UniFi Dream Wall (UDW)
+- UniFi Cloud Gateway Ultra (UCG-Ultra)
+- UniFi Enterprise Fortress Gateway (EFG)
+
+The class automatically detects UniFi OS consoles and adjusts the URLs and several functions/methods accordingly.
+
+UniFi OS-based controllers require you to connect using port **443** instead of **8443** which is used for
+"software-based" controllers. If your own code implements strict validation of the URL that is passed to the
+constructor, please adapt your logic to allow URLs without a port suffix or with port 443 when working with a
+UniFi OS-based controller.
+
+
+### Remote API access to UniFi OS-based controllers
+When connecting to a UniFi OS-based gateway through the WAN interface, you need to create a specific firewall rule to
+allow this. See this blog post on the Art of WiFi website for more details:
+https://artofwifi.net/blog/how-to-access-the-unifi-controller-by-wan-ip-or-hostname-on-a-udm-pro
+
+The "custom firewall rule" approach described there is the recommended method.
+
+
+## Upgrading from a previous version
+
+When upgrading from a version before **1.1.84**, please:
+- make sure you are using PHP **7.4** or higher
+- test the client with your code for any breaking changes; the class methods now have strict parameter type hints and 
+  response types which can break your code in certain cases where the wrong type is passed or a different response type
+  is expected back

 #### IMPORTANT NOTES:
 
-1. The last parameter (`true`) that is passed to the constructor, enables validation of the controller's SSL certificate which is otherwise **disabled** by default. It is highly recommended to enable this feature in production environments where you have a valid SSL cert installed on the UniFi Controller, and which is associated with the FQDN of the server as used in the `controller_url` parameter. This option was added with API client version 1.1.16.
+1. In the above example, `$site_id` is the short site "name" (usually 8 characters long) that is visible in the URL when
-
+   managing the site in the UniFi Network Controller. For example with this URL:
-2. In the example above, `$site_id` is the 8 character short site "name" which is visible in the URL when managing the site in the UniFi Controller:
 
    `https://<controller IP address or FQDN>:8443/manage/site/jl3z2shm/dashboard`
 
-   In this case, `jl3z2shm` is the value required for $site_id.
+   `jl3z2shm` is the short site "name" and the value to assign to $site_id.
+
+2. The 6th optional parameter that is passed to the constructor in the above example (`true`), enables validation of
+   the controller's SSL certificate which is otherwise **disabled** by default. It is **highly recommended** to enable
+   this feature in production environments where you have a valid SSL cert installed on the UniFi Controller that is
+   associated with the FQDN in the `controller_url` parameter. This option was added with API client version 1.1.16.
+
+3. Using an administrator account (`$controller_user` in the above example) with **read-only** permissions can limit 
+   visibility on certain collection/object properties. See this
+   [issue](https://github.com/Art-of-WiFi/UniFi-API-client/issues/129) and this 
+   [issue](https://github.com/Art-of-WiFi/UniFi-API-browser/issues/94) for an example where the WPA2 password isn't
+   visible for **read-only** administrator accounts.

+/**
+ * PHP API usage example to turn the PoE of the selected switch ports to "off" or "auto"
+ *
+ * contributed by: @Kaltt
+ * description:    A use case for this script is to turn off the PoE of the port where a camera is connected in order to turn off the camera
+ *
+ * usage:          If the file is called via a web URL, it should be called like: update_switch_poe-mode.php?poe_mode=off
+ *                 If the file is called via the command line, it should be called like: php update_switch_poe-mode.php off
+ *                 The values can be "off" or "auto"
+ *
+ * IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
+ * This example no longer works with controller versions 7.1.X and higher. You now need to work with port profiles to enable POE on a switch port.
