+##### Changing storage directory
+
+By default, CHIP Tool stores its configuration into the `/tmp` directory. You
+can change the storage directory by using the `--storage-directory` flag.
+
+Usage:
+
+```
+--storage-directory <directory>
+```
+
+Here, _<directory\>_ is the path to the directory where the configuration is
+stored.
+
+**Example of usage:**
+
+```
+$ ./chip-tool pairing ble-wifi <node_id> <ssid> <password> <pin_code> <discriminator> --storage-directory <directory>
+$ ./chip-tool temperaturemeasurement read measured-value <node_id> <endpoint_id> --storage-directory <directory>
