# Command: validate
|
|
|
|
The `validate` command is used to check a [job specification](/docs/jobspec/index.html)
|
|
for any syntax errors or validation problems.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
nomad validate <file>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The validate command requires a single argument, specifying the path to a file
|
|
containing a [job specification](/docs/jobspec/index.html). This file
|
|
will be read and the job checked for any problems.
|
|
|
|
On successful validation, exit code 0 will be returned, otherwise an exit code
|
|
of 1 indicates an error.
