Synopsis

pingcli pingfederate data-stores template [flags]

Examples

  # Generate a template and save to a file
  pingcli pingfederate data-stores template > body.json

  # Edit the template, then create the data store
  pingcli pingfederate data-stores create --from-file body.json
Use the JSON template as a starting point:
  1. Run the template command to generate the body skeleton.
  2. Edit the file, replacing placeholder values with real data.
  3. Feed the edited file back to the create or replace action via --from-file.

Example workflow:
  pingcli pingfederate data-stores template > body.json
  # edit body.json
  pingcli pingfederate data-stores create --from-file body.json
