CLI Authentication

The CLI supports two authentication methods:

instapod login

This opens your browser for a secure OAuth PKCE flow. After authorizing, the token is saved to ~/.instapods/config.json.

instapod login --email [email protected] --use-password

You’ll be prompted for your password. The session token is saved locally.

Check Current User

instapod whoami

Displays your email, user ID, and current team.

instapod logout

Removes the saved token from your local configuration.

The CLI stores the auth token in ~/.instapods/config.json. You can also set it via environment variable:

export INSTAPOD_TOKEN=your-token-here

This is useful for CI/CD pipelines and automation scripts.
