porter auth contains commands for authenticating with Porter.
porter auth login
Authenticate with your Porter account. By default, this opens your browser to complete authentication.
Usage:
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
--token | Log in using an existing token |
After logging in, Porter automatically sets your default project and cluster if you have access to any. You can view these with
porter config.porter auth logout
Log out from Porter. This revokes your current session on the Porter API and clears your local credentials, so any cached access or refresh tokens stored on disk can no longer be used.
Usage:
Use
porter auth logout on shared or untrusted machines before stepping away. Simply deleting the local config file leaves your session valid on the server — only porter auth logout revokes it.
