Command Overview

beacon ingest endpoint manages endpoint telemetry uploads to Asymptote Managed ingest.
Command syntax
beacon ingest endpoint [command]
Use this command group when endpoint ingest is configured and you need to inspect upload state or trigger an upload from the local runtime log.
Endpoint ingest requires dashboard credentials from beacon login and endpoint ingest configuration. Beacon endpoint collection remains local-only unless managed ingest is configured and endpoint upload commands are used.
