~ $ gli auth status

# List operations bundled from the published OpenAPI for each service:

~ $ gli entity endpoints

~ $ gli asset endpoints --json

# Send a request (paths are those shown by endpoints, e.g. from the entity Swagger UI):

~ $ gli entity request GET /entity/event-type

~ $ gli entity request GET /entity/{entityId}/bom --param entityId=<uuid>

~ $ gli entity request POST /batch --body @payload.json
