Storing properties automatically

When you issue a command that is missing a required option value for a property (for example, host or password) the CLI prompts you to enter the option value.

The autoStore property in the zowe.config.json file lets you store the option values for properties automatically. When you specify the autoStore property in zowe.config.json to true, the value that you enter when prompted is stored for future commands to use. The values for secure fields are stored securely in the credential vault (if configured accordingly), and the other values are written to zowe.config.json on disk.

The default value of the autoStore property is true. However, if you do not want to store properties automatically, set the value of autoStore to false.

A value of false prompts for missing values on all commands that you issue.
