Everything within square brackets [] is optional; everything that's not in square brackets is required. Mutually exclusive items are separated by a vertical bar ( | ). One of the options separated by the vertical bar can be specified but not multiple options. When a parameter can contain one or more values, these values are separated by a comma.
