Next-generation platform

Command-line interface

Users with the Developer role can use the command-line interface in the Self Service tool to automate deployments in a continuous integration continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline. You can also do these tasks manually from the Self Service tool user interface.

You can download the developer toolkit, setup the developer toolkit, develop your customizations, export them into customization packages, and then use the command-line interface tool to upload or deploy the customization packages to the cloud environments.

You can control and manually configure your environments by using the Self Service tool user interface. However, you can automate this process by using the command-line interface from the Self Service tool.

Here are the steps that you must follow to use the command-line interface in the Self Service tool.
  1. Download the command-line interface from the Self Service tool based on your operating system.
  2. Extract the command-line interface to your local directory.
  3. Create an API key.
  4. Configure the command-line interface by applying the API token to use the command-line interface securely.
  5. Use the command-line interface to automate your tasks by using the ssctl commands or create a configuration file that can be used across all the commands.
Note: The command-line interface in the Self Service tool might evolve based on user experiences and feedback.
