Overview
This guide will show you how to get started using the IBM Cloud CLIresource search function to locate resources on your account.
The examples are divided in to two sections:
- Cloud = IBM Cloud Resources.
- IaaS = Classic Infrastructure (SoftLayer) Resources.
If you do not have the IBM Cloud CLI installed you can refer to thisdoc for installation instructions. Alternately you can useIBM Cloud Shell which has all of the tools we will need out of the box.
