cdswctl: Can you create a ssh-endpoint for an existing session?

MaxPeters — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 11:33:16 GMT

Cloudera Documentation - cdswctl and Using VS Code for Remote Editing describe how to create a ssh-endpoint using `cdswctl`. The command describes how to create a new session and associate a ssh-endpoint.

Is it possible to create a ssh-endpoint to an existing session?

e.g. first list available sessions and then connect to one of them via its ID?

Thanks for the interesting question on the cdswctl CLI.

Currently, it is not possible to use the cdswctl CLI to create a connection to an existing session.

The ability to do this is a feature request for a future version.

Regards,

Steve

Has this function been implemented?
