💅 c8y(1) — the c8y manual page, but make it make sense 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to c8y — yes, the manual is literally called c8y(1), we're all just living in its world ✨ and this page right here is c8y-operations-get, the little icon that fetches you one single operation. honestly? underrated. let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

c8y-operations-get — Get operation 💖 like, go get it. grab that operation. that's the whole job.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

c8y operations get [flags]

that's it, that's the vibe. c8y, then operations, then get, then whatever flags your heart desires 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Get an existing operation 🎀

no cap, that's the description. you have an operation that already exists, and this command? this command goes and gets it. main character energy fr fr 👑

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -h, --help[=false] — help for get 🥺 the little "what does this even do" button. defaults to false, as help flags do.
  • --id=[] — Operation id (required) (accepts pipeline) 🔥 required, bestie, do not forget it. it also accepts pipeline input, so you can pipe that id in like the tech-savvy icon you are.

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

these aren't even get's own flags, they're inherited from the parent commands — the family traits, iykyk 🧬💜 but they absolutely still work here, so let's go through all of them, no skipping, we're not that kind of girl 🙈

  • --abortOnErrors=10 — Abort batch when reaching specified number of errors 💀 hits 10 errors and it's out, bye.

  • --cache[=false] — Enable cached responses ⭐ caching on.

  • -c, --compact[=false] — Compact instead of pretty-printed output when using json output. Pretty print is the default if output is the terminal ✨ terminal = pretty by default, so this one's for the gremlins who want it squished 💅

  • --confirmText="" — Custom confirmation text 💬 write your own dramatic prompt, default is empty string.

  • --examples[=false] — Show examples for the current command 🌟
  • --filter=[] — Apply a client side filter to response before returning it to the user 🧚 client side, meaning it happens on your machine before it gets handed to you.
  • --flatten[=false] — flatten json output by replacing nested json properties with properties where their names are represented by dot notation 🪄 nested goes flat, dots go everywhere.

  • --outputFile="" — Save JSON output to file (after select/view) 💾 after select/view, note that.
