The Connect-JCOnline function sets the global variable $JCAPIKEY

Connect-JCOnline [-force] [-JumpCloudApiKey] <String>
 [[-JumpCloudOrgId] <String>] [[-JCEnvironment] <String>] [<CommonParameters>]

By calling the Connect-JCOnline function you are setting the variable $JCAPIKEY within the global scope. By setting this variable in the global scope the variable $JCAPIKEY can be reused by other functions in the JumpCloud module. If you wish to change the API key to connect to another JumpCloud org simply call the Connect-JCOnline function and enter the alternative API key. Introduced in JumpCloud module version 1.2 the Connect-JCOnline function will also check to ensure you are running the latest version of the JumpCloud PowerShell module and offer to update the module if there is an update available. To prevent the module update check the '-force' parameter can be used.
