Pull switch config from Nexus 9000

Is it possible to pull the running-config of a Nexus 9000 from a server using scp? All I found is how to push it from the Nexus to a server or pull it from a server to the Nexus. All I want to do is:

user@server> scp user@nexus:running-config /directory/running-config-of-nexus

I would like to use this method to talk to multiple switches in my env. and pull configs instead of running commands from the switch, as it increases my management overhead of managing commands on each switch from which I want configurations.

Why not have the switch automatically backup it's config to the server?

 - Switches don't do this because it inherent insecure, if you have management tools such as Cisco Prime can do this automatically for you.
