Auth Token

Open peter-smith-phd opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

The docs say:

You should set the LOCALSTACK_AUTH_TOKEN environment variable either before or during the startup of LocalStack using the localstack command-line interface (CLI).

But as far as I can tell, the localstack auth set-token command doesn't actually set the LOCALSTACK_AUTH_TOKEN environment variable. It instead creates a .localstack/auth.json file. The user should probably be made aware of this hidden file, since they need to make sure it's kept secure.
