output

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.
