Synopsis
Retrieve EdgeGrid credentials.
Syntax
Get-EdgegridCredentials [[-EdgeRCFile] <String>] [[-Section] <String>] [[-AccountSwitchKey] <String>] [-ProgressAction <ActionPreference>] [<CommonParameters>]Description
This function will load EdgeGrid credentials by checking for environment variables AKAMAI_HOST, AKAMAI_CLIENT_TOKEN, etc.) or your .edgerc file. These can then be used to sign requests, or be saved to a file with Export-EdgeGridCredentials. If you specify an .edgerc file, that will be tried directly. If not, we check environment variables first, then the default edgerc file location ~/.edgerc), finally throwing an error if no credentials can be found.
If you specify a -Section parameter, we will check for environment variables with that value as a prefix, e.g. -Section MyCreds will instruct the function to look for AKAMAI_MYCREDS_HOST and so on.
