## PARAMETERS
2018-03-08 10:19:25 +01:00
### -Credentials
Use this parameter to bypass the stored credentials.
Without this parameter Connect-To tries to read the
needed credentials from the CredentialStore.
If you provide this parameter you skip this lookup behavior.
So you can use it to enable credentials without preparing any user interaction.
