output

Specifies a file where you want a command to write the output if the command executes successfully. If you do not specify the {--output | -o} option, the command writes the output to the console.

Syntax

--output | -o file

Arguments

Argument	Description
file	Specifies the file where you want the output written. If the file you specify does not exist, the command creates it. You can specify: Absolute directory path and filename. Relative directory path and filename. The path is relative from where you initiated the command. Filename of a file in the same directory where you initiated the command.

Usage Notes

If the file you specify with the {--output | -o} option already exists, the command overwrites the existing file with the new service results.

If a command results in an error, the command writers the error output to the location specified by the {--error | -r} option or the console if the {--error | -r} option is not specified.

Examples

To write output to a file named “results.xml” in the directory c:\outputs:

--output c:\outputs\results.xml

To write output to a file named “results.json” in the \outputs directory relative to where you initiate the command:

--output outputs\results.json

To write output to a file named “results” in the same directory from where you initiate the command:

--output results

In this example, the command determines the file extension based on the request content type.
