get-support-data

Gathers and generates log files containing diagnostic and configuration information from your computer, the cloud, and the attached Azure Sphere device. The information in these log files can be used to help you or the technical support team to analyze and troubleshoot problems. For more information, see Manage log files.

-h, --help	Prints CLI reference information about commands and their arguments and lists available subgroups and commands.
--only-show-errors	Shows only errors, suppressing warnings.
-o, --output	Changes the output format. The available output formats are json, jsonc (colorized JSON), tsv (Tab-Separated Values), table (human-readable ASCII tables), and yaml. By default the CLI outputs table. To learn more about the available output formats, see Output format for Azure Sphere CLI commands.
--query	Uses the JMESPath query language to filter the output returned from Azure Sphere Security Services. See JMESPath tutorial and Query Azure CLI command output for more information and examples.
--verbose	Prints information about resources created in Azure Sphere during an operation and other useful information. Use --debug for full debug logs.
