|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```shell-session
|
||
|
|
$ boundary connect http -target-id=ttcp_1234567890

### HTTP options:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `-host` `(string: "")` - The host value to use.
|
||
|
|
This setting overrides the endpoint address from the session information.
|
||
|
|
Boundary passes the specified host name through to the client for use in the host header and TLS SNI value, if supported.
|
||
|
|
You can also specify the host value using the **BOUNDARY_CONNECT_HTTP_HOST** environment variable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `-method` `(string: "")` - The HTTP method to use.
|
||
|
|
If you don't set a method, Boundary uses the client's default.
|
||
|
|
You can also specify a method using a the **BOUNDARY_CONNECT_HTTP_METHOD** environment variable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `-path` `(string: "")` - The path that is appended to the
|
||
|
|
generated URL.
|
||
|
|
You can also specify a path using the **BOUNDARY_CONNECT_HTTP_PATH** environment variable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `-scheme` `(string: "")` - The scheme to use.
|
||
|
|
The default scheme is `https`.
|
||
|
|
You can also specify the scheme using the **BOUNDARY_CONNECT_HTTP_SCHEME** environment variable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `-style` `(string: "")` - How the CLI attempts to invoke an HTTP client.
|
||
|
|
This value also sets a suitable default for `-exec`, if you did not specify a value.
|
||
|
|
The default and currently-understood value is `curl`.
|
||
|
|
You can also specify how the CLI attempts to invoke the HTTP client using the **BOUNDARY_CONNECT_HTTP_STYLE** environment variable.
