Every command-line flag has a corresponding environment variable that you can set instead of the flag, either directly in your environment or in a dedicated configuration file. See config-path description in Global flags and Set environment variables for details. To set a command-line flag on the endorctl scan command you can specify the flag with a leading -- for full flag names or a leading - for short flag aliases. If applicable, place input arguments after the flag and separate them with either a blank space or a = character. For example, to set the output-type specify --output-type json or -o=json. If the input argument is a list, use a , character to separate list elements, for example --languages=go,python.

Global flags

The following global flags apply to any endorctl command. Each flag has a corresponding environment variable that you can use in place of the flag.

​
Environment variables that affect scan behavior

The following environment variables configure scan behavior. They do not have corresponding command-line flags. Set them in your environment, in the scan profile, or in the config file before running endorctl. You can set them in a scan profile with additional_environment_variables so they apply automatically to every scan that uses that profile. See Configure automated scan parameters for details.
