list-roles

dci list-roles

Returns a list of roles.

CLI default view

dci list-roles presents a curated table by default:

  • Columns: name, type, and description.
  • --output json and explicit -C/--fields selections return the raw fields documented below.

Output

OK - List of roles returned.

By default dci renders the result as a table. Use --output json to get the full structure described below — see Output formats.

Errors

On failure, dci prints a single error message — with a hint when one is available — and exits with a typed code your scripts can branch on. See Errors and exit codes for the full contract.
