CLI run-as option doesn't seem to work

[nwolfe]

Describe the Bug

It would seem from documentation that I could configure Bolt to run as root user via the CLI like bolt plan run --run-as root ... or in the inventory.yaml file transport options here https://www.puppet.com/docs/bolt/latest/bolt_transports_reference.html#run-as-5 yet the CLI one doesn't work; I have to put this in inventory file under ssh: config: run-as: root.

What actions are not using the run-as flag? When i test this with a minimal example (using run_command) the run-as cli option is respected:

(positive_ev) ➜  foo cat foo/plans/init.pp
plan foo(){
  return run_command(whoami, localhost)
}

@nwolfe just to check in and see if this is still an issue for you or if we can close this issue?

We can close this, I don't recall the significance of this and was new to Bolt at the time 😃
