CLI 2.0 beta

I think it would be a more secure option if the CLI didn't return the password in clear text but copied it to the clipboard (or something) unless I add a flag to intentionally opt-in for it to be clear text

Wouldn't it then end up in your clipboard manager (if you use one)?

The one I use excludes pastes from 1Password, but that will only be the App; not the CLI...

I don't know that the system clipboard is any more or less secure than STDOUT in your Terminal.

the clipboard is not more secure, I can easily see what's in there if I want to. The key being 'if I want to'. For the same reason that we hide the password on login forms, sure if I want to see it I can click a button to show it or change the input type to text.

My suggestion is that the default return format for the password to not be clear text unless I ask for it to be clear text by adding a flag or something. That way I won't accidentally show it when people are watching.

The clipboard thing was just an additional thing/option to hide it.

That's strange, I got the email but when i click to access the private forum it says I do not have access.... Could someone fix that?

@ag_tyler can you help @Vytux access to the Early Access forum?

Hey @Vytux - I've made sure that you're added to that private forum. If you're referring to the invite email for the beta that we sent out it's possible that you might have registered with a different email than what's connected to your forum account. Regardless - I've made sure that you're in so you should be able to access the private forum group now. Let me know if you need any additional help!

@ag_tyler - I've got a similar issue - Could you please add me to the Early Access forum?
Thanks!

@AndyQ You bet! I've gone ahead and added you to the private forum group. Let me know if you have any troubles finding/viewing it!

Awesome thanks - I'm in.
