The following post processing options are available to deal with the show command outputs. Use the pipe symbol | after the command and maximum 5 pipes are allowed in a single command.

• display-json [path <path-value>] – Display the raw JSON output. Use the optional keyword path to filter based on the JSON path expression.

• except – Filter lines not matching with the regex pattern. Use ignore-case for case insensitive search.

• grep – Filter lines matching with the regex pattern. Use ignore-case for case insensitive search.

• find – Search for the first occurrence of a pattern and display all the subsequent lines. Use ignore-case for case insensitive search.

• no-more – Display all the lines without pagination

• save – Save the output to file inside mgmt-framework container. Use append to append on top of the existing file. Files are stored in mgmt-framework docker. Use the absolute path always. Relative path files are stored in /home/cliadmin directory.
