pw auth token

Authenticate the CLI with a short-term token

Synopsis

After you enter pw auth token, the CLI will prompt you to paste your short-term token on a new line.

You can create a new token on ACTIVATE by going to Account > Authentication > API Keys. For more information about these steps, please see this page.

These short-term tokens last a maximum of 24 hours, after which you will need to re-authenticate.

Alternatively, you can authenticate with an API key. Please see pw auth apikey for more information.

Use --context-name to specify a custom name for the context. This is useful if you want multiple contexts for the same user/server combination.
