# Configuration

Most of the API calls made by the CLI require the request to have been authenticated. Configuring the binary helps avoid re-entering the credentials when making the request. This is optional, and there may be circumstances, such as in a stateless environment, where it may not be appropriate. 

Configuration is a three step process:

* Obtain the credentials from application. The option will be present in the profile popover on the top right of the window.
* Run the `*-configure` command to save the configuration
* Run the `*-cred-check` command to validate the configuration

For example, for Moreficent:

For example, for Dunebox:

{% embed url="<https://youtu.be/nYKEk0C7d3M>" %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://oda.moreficent.com/getting-started/configuration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
