st options
[This document supports a preliminary release of a software product that may be changed substantially prior to final commercial release. This document is provided for informational purposes only.]
As described in SDS Command Line Tool, st.exe has several options and some of them are required. This makes typing st commands potentially cumbersome. You can use options command to configure these options and save the configuration in st.exe.config file. Then you don't have to type these options for each st command.
st options [/option1:value [option2:value …]]
Note that,
- Each
st optionscall removes previous configuration settings and creates new settings based on the parameters passed. st optionswithout any parameters removes previously configured settings.
Examples
Example 1 Configure and save st command options
The following command configures the options. These configuration options are saved in the st.exe.config file.
cmdPrompt>st options /user:username /host:data.database.windows.net /rest
You can optionally save password with this command by adding /password:<user-password> option in which case the password will be saved along with other configuration information and you will not be prompted for the password for subsequent st command. However, when /password option is not added, you will be prompted for the password.
Example 2 Remove the configuration options
This command removes any previously configured st command options.
cmdPrompt>st options
