How Do I Use cli-output, cli-query, and cli-output-num?

For details about how to use the new output parameters, see Specifying Output Format.

In a command, use --cli-query to pass a JMESPath expression and perform a JMESPath query on the result to extract key information in the original returned result. Use --cli-output to specify the response data output format. Use --cli-output-num to specify whether to print the row numbers during table output.

When you use the preceding parameters, note that:

• Use only --cli-output in a command to specify the output format. If you use only --cli-query in a command, the default output format is JSON.
• When using --cli-query, enclose the value with double quotation marks ("") to avoid parsing errors when the system processes commands.
• When using --cli-output-num to specify whether to print the row numbers, set --cli-output to table.
• In the same command, if --cli-output has been used and old system parameters such as --cli-output-rows and --cli-json-filter are specified, the value of --cli-output is preferentially used as the target output format.
