When importing a module by using Import-Module Path one line above New-PSUEndPoint . Does the module need to be a psm1 with a definition file or can a simple ps1 with functions inside it also be imported?

It won’t actually import the module into your endpoints with this method.

Thanks Adam, do the modules for the envrioment get loaded when when PSU loads or are they read during each API execution?

They are loaded when PSU creates a new runspace. PSU has a runspace pool so your module may be loaded multiple times depending on how busy your server is but each load will be into a new runspace. If it’s already been loaded into a runspace, it won’t be loaded again.

So what would you say is the best practice procedure to follow when we need a module reloaded because a change was done to it? Right now we’re restarting the PSU service but I’m sure that’s not the best thing to do.
