Sonatype IQ CLI Binaries
The CLI binary versions are a drop-in replacement for the Java version without the Java runtime environment (JRE) requirements. The parameters are the same as the Java CLI versions with the addition of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) customizations.
Note
The native Mac OSX CLI has been sunset and will receive only critical bug and security fixes until June 10th, 2025. After this date, it will no longer be supported.
The native Linux and Windows CLI have been sunset and will receive only critical bug and security fixes until September 14, 2025. After this date, they will no longer be supported.
For the latest features and full support, switch to our cross-platform Java CLI with bundled JDK.
