Powershell: Invoke-RESTmethod on /mgmt/tm/sys/ucs (403) Forbidden error

I'm fairly experienced with Powershell and have used the Invoke-RestMethod cmdlet, and vendor documentation, to automate some things before. I've just inherited management of an HA pair of F5 BIG-IP...

i suggest you use f5 python sdk api： f5-sdk

here is the code to save sys ucs file and name its filename "/var/local/ucs/test.ucs":

from f5.bigip import ManagementRoot

mgmt = ManagementRoot("192.168.5.109", 'admin', 'xt32112300')

"""save sys ucs name /var/local/ucs/test.ucs"""
mgmt.tm.sys.ucs.exec_cmd(command='save', name='/var/local/ucs/test.ucs')

"""check system all sys ucs filename"""
for i in mgmt.tm.sys.ucs.load().items:
    print(i['apiRawValues']['filename'])
