ibmcloud: Display help for a subcommand.
$ ibmcloud help ${subcommand}
try on your machine

The command "ibmcloud help ${subcommand}" is used with the IBM Cloud CLI (Command Line Interface) to get help and information about a specific subcommand.

Here's how it works:

  • "ibmcloud" is the main command used to interact with IBM Cloud services and resources through the CLI.
  • "help" is a keyword that is used to request assistance or information about a specific command or subcommand.
  • "${subcommand}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual name of the subcommand for which you want help.

By running this command, you will receive detailed information about the provided subcommand, including its syntax, available options, and usage examples. The output will provide you with the necessary guidance to understand how to properly use the subcommand and achieve your desired outcome.

For example, if you want to get help for the subcommand "ibmcloud resource groups", you would run the command "ibmcloud help resource groups". This will provide you with all the information you need to work with and manage resource groups in the IBM Cloud ecosystem.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
