+# Build using fn cli

+# oci-cli based function invocation
+```bash
+oci fn function invoke --function-id <function-ocid> --file "-" --body '{"ENDPOINT":"<predict-url>", "PAYLOAD": "<json-payload>"}'
+```
+
+## Sample:
+```bash
+oci fn function invoke --function-id <function-ocid> --file "-" --body '{"ENDPOINT":"https://modeldeployment.us-ashburn-1.oci.customer-oci.com/<md-ocid>/predict", "PAYLOAD": "{\"index\": \"1\"}"}'
+```
+
+# fn cli based invocation
+```bash
+fn invoke <app-name> <function-name>
+```
+
+## Sample:
+```bash
+echo -n '{"ENDPOINT":"https://modeldeployment.us-ashburn-1.oci.customer-oci.com/<md-ocid>/predict", "PAYLOAD": "{\"index\": \"1\"}"}' | fn invoke <app-name> <function-name>
+```
+
+# More information
+The sample code in [func.py](./func.py) also shows how to get headers and request body. Required headers can also be passed to downstream call, if needed.
+Other ways of function invocation can be found [here](https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Functions/Tasks/functionsinvokingfunctions.htm)
