This pages describes how to use a command line interface with Pathfinder.

By using the Pathfinder Linking-System the user is able to execute pathfinder commands right from a shell to e.g. automate actions like exporting reports or backing up databases.

You can use your API key here to authenticate a script or other process with Pathfinder (e.g. Pathfinder REST API or Shell Commands).

Prerequisite

In order to use pathfinder commands please first create an API key. This will allow you to login into pathfinder without the need of using your credentials (username / password) in a shell script.
