This is my code:

Code:

        $Request2 = "http://localhost:$($this.Port)/api/v1/status/stratum"

        If ($this.AllowedBadShareRatio) { 
            #Read stratum info from API
            Try { 
                $Data | Add-Member stratums (Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $Request2 -TimeoutSec $Timeout).stratums
            }
            Catch {

This is the resulting API data:

Please note the empty algorithm property:         "algorithm": "",

With all other algos the property is filled.
I also noticed that the html gui does not work for CuckarooZ29 (no graph)
