Getting Started

First you need to Setup basic information: the Server Address, your Private Key and your Password. You have these options:

• Save it in the config file using passbolt configure --serverAddress https://passbolt.example.org --userPrivateKey 'private' --userPassword '1234'
• Setup Enviroment Variables
• Provide the Flags manually every time

Note: you can also just store the serverAddress and your Private Key, if your Password is not set it will prompt you for it every time

Usage

Generally the Structure of Commands is like this:

go-passbolt-cli action entity [arguments]

Action is the Action you want to perform like Creating, Updating or Deleting a Entity. Entity is a Resource(Password), Folder, User or Group that you want to apply a action to.

In Passbolt a Password is Usually Refert to as a Resource.

To Create a Resource you can do this, it will return the ID of the newly created Resource:

go-passbolt-cli create resource --name "Test Resource" --password "Strong Password"

You can then list all users:

go-passbolt-cli list user

For sharing we will need to know how we want to share, for that there are these Permission Types:

Code	Meaning
1	"Read-only"
7	"Can update"
15	"Owner"
-1	Delete existing permission

Now that we have a Resource ID, know the ID's of other Users and about know about Permission Types, we can share the Resource with them:

go-passbolt-cli share resource --id id_of_resource_to_share --type type_of_permission --users id_of_user_to_share_with

Note: you can supply the the users argument multiple times to share with multiple users

For sharing with groups the --groups argument exists.
