Newbie question about mgmt_cli on windows

[pgestido]

Hi:

I am trying to use mgmt_cli on Windows to connect to Smart1 Cloud

I am trying to use 

mgmt_cli -m mydomain.maas.checkpoint.com --context <context-id>/web_api login api-key <my_api_key> > id.txt

this generate the id.txt like 

uid: "my_uid"
sid: "my_sid"
url: "https://127.0.0.1:443/web_api"
session-timeout: 600
last-login-was-at:
posix: 1732049229199
iso-8601: "2024-11-19T20:47+0000"
api-server-version: "1.9.1"
user-name: "admin-api"
user-uid: "my_user-uid"

next, I try

mgmt_cli -m mydomain.maas.checkpoint.com --context <context-id>/web_api show networks --session-file id.txt

and get the following error:

Couldn't connect to server
If you need to use a proxy server, add the '--proxy' parameter

But if I execute 

mgmt_cli -m mydomain.maas.checkpoint.com --context <context-id>/web_api show networks --session-id "my_sid"

this works fine.

All examples I found on the web are done like the first option.

What am I doing wrong?

Regards,

Pablo

My understanding is that you do not need -m or --context if you are using a session file, as all of the necessary information should be included.
