What is Keeper Commander?

Keeper Commander is a command-line and SDK interface to the Keeper Security platform. Commander can be used to access and control your Keeper vault, perform administrative functions (such as end-user onboarding and data import/export), manage privileged access, run reports and create custom automations. Keeper Commander is an open source project with contributions from Keeper's engineering team and partners.
