GopherSecurity CLI Commands

This document provides the commands, their arguments, and options, to interface with the GopherSecurity via CLI. Commands can be executed from a shell application on any OS and from any directory within the OS.

When signed in to the GopherSecurity CLI as "root" admin, all Gopher networks configured in the Gopher dashboard Team instance for that root admin are automatically imported to the GopherSecurity CLI.

gopher -h

Where -h and --h are "help" arguments.

Use this command to display all available Gopher commands, arguments and options.

gopher login

The output prompts for the following:

Email:
Password:

gopher loginkey

A login key is a Gopher system generated key that can be used to login to multiple Gopher instances deployed on multiple servers. Good for massive deployment using toolset like Ansible.

To login to the GopherSecurity CLI with a login key, use the following command replacing the <accessKeyId> parameter with the actual key ID.

gopher loginkey <accessKeyId>

gopher logout

Logs the current user, if multiple, out of their Gopher Team, then auto switch another user account, if multiple.

Current user: [email protected]
Connected: Contractors network

gopher version

Displays the version of GopherSecurity CLI running on the device.

gopher smscode

To enter an SMS generated MFA code, use the following command, replacing the <code> parameter with the actual authentication code:

gopher smscode <SMScode>

gopher emailcode
