fauna database list

fauna database list

List top-level or child databases.

To get top-level databases, omit --database and --secret. To get child databases, use --database or --secret to specify the parent database. If using --secret, the parent database is the database to which the secret is scoped.

When using interactive login or an account key, the command outputs the database’s name and path, including Region Group identifier and hierarchy. Paths are not available when using a secret.

Flags

Output
--color

Enable color formatting for output. Enabled by default. Use --no-color to disable.

--json

Output results as JSON.

--quiet

Config

Pass values as a space-separated list. Example: --verbose-component argv config.
