Basic example

Octopus Samples instance

Many of the examples we use, reference the samples instance of Octopus Deploy. If you’d like to explore the samples instance, you can log in as a guest.

This example writes out deployment information from the Default space to a temp directory:

Windows:

octo dump-deployments --filePath="C:\temp\octo-deployments.xml" --server="https://samples.octopus.app" --apiKey="MyApiKey"

Linux:

octo dump-deployments --filePath="/tmp/octo-deployments.xml" --space="Pattern - Rolling" --server="https://samples.octopus.app" --apiKey="MyApiKey"
