By default, the information in this profile is used when you run a command that does not explicitly specify a profile to use.

Sensitive credential information is only stored in the OS keychain, not in the configuration file.

1. Open your system's command-line tool and execute this command.

   $ snc configure profile set

   The CLI prompts you for more information.
2. Enter the requested values.
   When prompting for information, the CLI displays current values in brackets []. To keep an existing value, press the Enter key.

   Requested information	Description
   Host	The host name of the instance to connect to. Supports both the full URL (https://my-instance.service-now.com) or just the host name (my-instance).
   Login method	The login method to use to connect to the instance. Supports Basic, OAuth, and OAuth + MFA.
   Username	The user name to use to connect to the instance.

   Client id	The client ID to use to connect to the instance when the login method is OAuth or OAuth + MFA.
   Client secret	The client secret to use to connect to the instance when the login method is OAuth or OAuth + MFA.
   Authentication code	The authentication code to use to connect to the instance when the login method is OAuth + MFA.
   Default output format	Specifies how to format the command results. Options are json, yaml, text, and table.

   $ snc configure profile set
   
   Host: 
   https://myinstance.service-now.com
   
   Login Method (Basic, OAuth, OAuth + MFA): 
   Basic

3. Run any command using the values specified in your default profile by omitting the --profile attribute from your command.

   The command creates a record in the instance specified in the default profile with the specified connection options.
