hcp profile set

Command: hcp profile set

The hcp profile set command sets the specified property in your active profile. A property governs the behavior of a specific aspect of the HCP CLI. This could be setting the organization and project to target, or configuring the default output format across commands.

To view all currently set properties, run hcp profile display or run hcp profile read to read the value of an individual property.

To unset properties, use hcp profile unset.

HCP CLI comes with a default profile but supports multiple. To create multiple configurations, use hcp profile profiles create, and hcp profile profiles activate to switch between them.
