Login

You must log in so the CLI can act on your behalf. Login stores credentials for your user on this device in the .collingo file in your home directory.

In Collingo, sign in and open SettingsAPI keys. Create a key, set a description and validity period, then copy the secret once (it is shown only at creation time).

In the terminal, run:

Terminal window
collingo login

The CLI prompts for your API key. Enter the value you copied. No flags are required.

On success, the CLI confirms and greets you by name. Your API key and related user settings are written to .collingo in your home directory. You can then use all collingo commands.

Treat the API key like a password. Do not commit ~/.collingo or paste keys into public repositories.
