List of Commands

login

The login command lets you add your WorkflowGen credentials to authorize the CLI. The CLI supports basic and Open ID Connect authentication.

Basic or Integrated Windows authentication

wfg login [WORKFLOWGEN_URL] -u [WORKFLOWGEN_USERNAME] -p [WORKFLOWGEN_PASSWORD] --password-file [PASSWORD_PATH] -c [CONTEXT_NAME]
Basic and Integrated Windows authentication are available since WorkflowGen version 7.0.0.

Auth0 authentication

wfg login [WORKFLOWGEN_URL] --authentication-mode AUTH0 --domain [DOMAIN] --client-id [CLIENT_ID] --client-secret [CLIENT_SECRET] -c [CONTEXT_NAME]
Auth0 authentication is available since WorkflowGen version 7.11.0.

MSIDV2 (Microsoft Identity Platform v2) authentication

wfg login [WORKFLOWGEN_URL] --authentication-mode MSIDV2 --tenant-id [TENANT_ID] --client-id [CLIENT_ID] --client-secret [CLIENT_SECRET] -c [CONTEXT_NAME]
MSIDV2 authentication is available since WorkflowGen version 7.16.0.
For MSIDV2 mode, you must first have registered a new dedicated application (server-side application) in your Azure Active Directory and on your WorkflowGen server by following the instructions in the Azure AD Configuration for Server-Side Scripts chapter in the WorkflowGen for Azure guide.
All of the operations invoked from the WorkflowGen CLI will therefore use the user account specific in the Impersonate username field of the Non-interactive client application associated to the WorkflowGen CLI in WorkflowGen.
