 ## UniFi Controller API client class
 
-A PHP class that provides access to Ubiquiti's [**UniFi Network Controller**](https://unifi-network.ui.com/) API, versions 4.X.X, 5.X.X and 6.0.X of the UniFi Network Controller software are supported (version 6.0.43 has been confirmed to work) as well as UniFi OS-based controllers (version 5.12.59 has been confirmed to work). This class is used by our API browser tool which can be found [here](https://github.com/Art-of-WiFi/UniFi-API-browser).

+This class is used by our API Browser tool, which can be found

 ## Requirements
 
-- a server with PHP, version 5.5.0 or higher, and the PHP cURL module installed (tested on Apache 2.4 with PHP Version 5.6.1 and cURL 7.42.1 and with PHP 7.2.24 and cURL 7.58.0)
-- direct network connectivity between this server and the host and port (normally TCP port 8443) where the UniFi Controller is running
-- you must use **local accounts**, not UniFi Cloud accounts, to access the UniFi Controller API through this class
+- a server with:
+  - 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 8.2.12 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 **accounts 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
 
 
 ## UniFi OS Support
 
-Support for UniFi OS-based controllers (UniFi Dream Machine Pro or Cloud Key Gen2/Cloud Key Gen2 Plus with firmware version 2.0.24 or higher) has been added as of version 1.1.47. The class automatically detects UniFi OS devices and adjusts URLs and several functions/methods accordingly. If your own code applies strict validation of the URL that is passed to the constructor, please adapt your logic to allow URLs without a port suffix when dealing with a UniFi OS-based controller.
+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)
 
-Please test all methods you plan on using thoroughly before using the API Client with UniFi OS devices in a production environment.
+The class automatically detects UniFi OS consoles and adjusts the URLs and several functions/methods accordingly.
+
+UniFi OS consoles 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 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

    `jl3z2shm` is the short site "name" and the value to assign to $site_id.
 
-2. The last 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.
