The edge login command
Reference for the Sitecore CLI edge login command for authenticating within an Experience Edge organization.
The Experience Edge plugin for Sitecore CLI provides the edge login command that authenticates you within an organization.
You can use the edge login command as follows:
dotnet sitecore edge login [options]
Running the login command without options initializes an interactive/device authorization login flow for authenticating with an organization. For example:
dotnet sitecore edge login
Note
This command requires that you obtain a tenant ID from a list of tenants and select a specific Edge tenant for subsequent commands.
You can also log directly into a production environment for a specific tenant if you have the necessary credentials. For example:
dotnet sitecore edge login --clientId <your-client-ID> --clientSecret <your-client-secret>
The Experience Edge login command has the following options:
Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Specifies the client ID used to log in to the specific Edge tenant. Required for non-interactive/client credentials login. |
| Specifies the client secret used to log in to the specific Edge tenant. Required for non-interactive/client credentials login. |
| Specifies the Experience Edge environment to target. Possible values: Default: |
| Displays developer help and usage information about the command |
Note
Any Experience Edge command memorizes the last used environment option. On subsequent commands for the same Edge environment, you can omit the --env option.
You obtain the client credentials as follows:
For Sitecore XM/XP on-prem - Sitecore provides you with the credentials.
For XM Cloud - generate an Edge administration client.
