# atmos config get

Read a value from the effective, fully-merged Atmos configuration using a dot-notation path.

`atmos config get` reports the same configuration Atmos actually uses for this invocation —
every `--config` file, `--config-path` directory, and profile merged together in precedence
order — not just what a single physical `atmos.yaml` file declares on its own. If you need to
inspect or edit one file's own declared value directly, use `atmos config format` or open the
file.

## Usage

```shell
atmos config get <path>
```

## Examples

```shell
atmos config get logs.level
atmos config get components.terraform.base_path
atmos config get logs.level --config ./atmos.yaml
atmos config get stacks.included_paths --config ./main.yaml,./overrides.yaml
```

## Arguments

- **`<path>` (required)**
  Dot-notation path to the value (e.g. 
  `logs.level`
  , 
  `components.terraform.base_path`
  ). Array elements use bracket indices (e.g. 
  `import[0]`
  ).

## Flags

- **`--config` (string slice, inherited)**
  Select one or more 
  `atmos.yaml`
   files instead of the location discovered in the current directory or git root. When multiple files are given, later files override earlier ones and the merged result is what 
  `get`
   reports.
