4 years agoCLI: Multiple Accounts at the Same Time?
Can the CLI be logged into multiple accounts at the same time? The only way I have been able to access items in two different accounts is to login to one at a time.

Hey @"Horia.Culea_1P"!
I think these two items from the docs answer the question for my use case. Thank you!By default, all commands will be run from the account that signed in last (agilebits in the above example).
To switch between accounts, use the --account flag to specify the shorthand of the signin address for the account you want to use.

Hey @markdorison, thank you for reaching out to us.
Do you mean retrieving items of different accounts with the same command, or without having to sign-in every time before retrieving items? I think both use-cases are achievable configuring an account filter, i.e. setting the--accountflag or the$OP_ACCOUNTenvironment variables. Retrieving items of different accounts with the same command can be done with a command such asop item get item1 --account account1 && op item get item2 --account account2.
Let me know if this page of our developer documentation helps: https://developer.1password.com/docs/cli/use-multiple-accounts/#use-multiple-accounts-at-the-same-time
I am looking forward to hearing from you!Best,

Hello there, can you specify your use case? Aren't you able to switch accounts in between?
