### Configuration Precedence
You can configure your VESSL environment in multiple ways. Here is a list of ways, in order of precedence.
1. Command line arguments / options: `-o` , `-p` options and `ORGANIZATION` , `PROJECT` arguments.
2. Credentials file option: `-f` , a path to a file containing configuration data.
3. Environment variables: `VESSL_ACCESS_TOKEN`, `VESSL_DEFAULT_ORGANIZATION` .
4. Credentials file environment variable: `VESSL_CREDENTIALS_FILE` .
5. Default credentials file: a configuration file maintained by VESSL located at `~/.vessl/config` .
<Note>The `--renew-token` flag for `vessl configure` will take precedence over other methods and renew your access token.</Note>
