description: 'qlik-cli is Qlik''s first-party command-line tool for Qlik Cloud. It is generated from the same API
  specifications as the REST surface, so its command tree tracks the API resource-by-resource: 1,018 documented
  command pages across 60+ top-level resource groups. It is also one of only two places Qlik implements rate-limit
  handling and automatic pagination for the caller.'
