Which Profile Will Be Used by Default If No Profile Is Specified in a Command?

Background

When you use KooCLI to manage and use your cloud service resources, it preferentially uses the profile specified by the --cli-profile option in the command during an API call.

If no profile is specified in the command, the default profile is used to call the target API.

If the profile does not match the target API or a parameter required for access to the target API is missing, an error message is displayed, for example:

  • [USE_ERROR] Specify cli-region.
  • [USE_ERROR] The value of cli-region is not supported. Supported regions: *
  • [USE_ERROR] The following parameters are required: project_id
  • [USE_ERROR] cli-domain-id is required for access to global services using AK/SK. Add this parameter or run `hcloud configure set` to configure it.

Solution

  • If you specify a profile with --cli-profile in the command, run the hcloud configure show --cli-profile=${profileName} command to view the profile, and check whether the specified profile is proper.
  • If no profile is specified in the command, the default profile is used to call the target API. Run the hcloud configure show command to query details about the default profile.
  • To use other profiles, run the hcloud configure list command to view all the configured profiles, use --cli-profile=${profileName} in the API calling command to specify the name of the target profile, and try again.
