Authentication¶
Authenticating from the command line¶
The DDEV-Live client initiates authentication via the ddev-live auth command. Running the command with no arguments will open a browser tab prompting you to complete the authentication process at https://dash.ddev.com/verify. After logging in through the browser page, authentication and configuration information will be passed to the client and you will be ready to interact with DDEV-Live.
Authenticating with a token¶
In instances where authenticating by interacting with a browser is not practical, you can pass a DDEV-Live API Token to the command-line. Your account settings hold the value for the DDEV-Live API Token under the "Integration" tab.
$ export DDEV_LIVE_TOKEN="my-ddev-live-token"
$ ddev-live auth --token $DDEV_LIVE_TOKEN
Storing the DDEV-Live API token as an environment variable and then referencing that environment variable is the recommend way of working with this type of token.
