# JSON formatted output

Most commands support printing the result in JSON format.

:::div{.warning}
[Dump Deployment](/docs/octopus-rest-api/octopus-cli/dump-deployments/), [Export](/docs/octopus-rest-api/octopus-cli/export/) and [Import](/docs/octopus-rest-api/octopus-cli/import) do not support JSON output.
:::

To access JSON formatted output, use the `--outputformat=json` parameter.

```bash
octo list-projects --server https://your-octopus-url --apiKey API-YOUR-KEY --outputformat=json
```

This command outputs the list of projects in parsable JSON format:

```
[
  {
    "Id": "Projects-81",
    "Name": "Phoenix"
  },
  {
    "Id": "Projects-61",
    "Name": "OctoFX"
  },
]
```

You can also work with the JSON output in PowerShell:
```powershell
$json = (./octo list-releases --server https://your-octopus-url --apikey API-YOUR-KEY --project=OctoLifecycle --outputformat=json) | ConvertFrom-Json
$json | select -expand Releases | where {[datetime]$_.Assembled -gt ((Get-Date).AddMonths(-1))}
```

This script writes out a list of releases for the last month:

```
