lacework configure

Configure the Lacework CLI

Synopsis

Configure settings that the Lacework CLI uses to interact with the Lacework platform. These include your Lacework account, API access key and secret.

To create a set of API keys, log in to your Lacework account via WebUI and navigate to Settings > API Keys and click + Create New. Enter a name for the key and an optional description, then click Save. To get the secret key, download the generated API key file.

Use the flag --json_file to preload the downloaded API key file. Use the flag --txt_file to preload the downloaded API key file from the FortiCloud portal.

If this command is run with no flags, the Lacework CLI will store all settings under the default profile. The information in the default profile is used any time you run a Lacework CLI command that doesn't explicitly specify a profile to use.

You can configure multiple profiles by using the --profile flag. If a config file does not exist (the default location is ~/.lacework.toml), the Lacework CLI will create it for you.
