Log in to Astro Private Cloud
You can use the Astro Private Cloud (APC) UI and the Astro CLI to view and modify your data planes, Workspaces, Deployments, environment variables, tasks, and users. You need to authenticate your user credentials when you’re using the UI or the Astro CLI for development on Astro.
Prerequisites
- An Astronomer account.
- Astro CLI v1.37 or higher .
Log in to the Astro Private Cloud UI
-
Go to
app.<basedomain>. -
Log in to the Astro Private Cloud UI using one of the authentication methods that has been configured by your organization. To integrate an identity provider (IdP) with Astro Private Cloud, see Integrate an auth system.
Log in to the Astro CLI
Developing locally with the Astro CLI does not require an Astro account. This includes commands such as astro dev start and astro dev pytest. If you want to use functionality specific to Astro Private Cloud, including managing users and deploying dags, you must first log in to Astro with the Astro CLI.
-
In the Astro CLI, run the following command:
-
Enter your username and password or use an OAuth token for authentication:
- Press Enter.
- Copy the URL in the command prompt, open a browser, paste the URL in the address bar, and then press Enter. If you’re not taken immediately to the Astronomer Auth Token page, log in to Astro Private Cloud, paste the URL in the address bar, and press Enter.
- Copy the OAuth token, paste it in the command prompt after oAuth Token, and then press Enter.
Access a different base domain
When you need to access multiple installations of Astro Private Cloud with the Astro CLI at the same time or you need to use Astro and Astro Private Cloud at the same time, you need to authenticate to each cluster individually by specifying its base domain.
A base domain or URL is the static element of a website address. For example, when you visit the Astronomer website, the address bar always displays astronomer.io no matter what page you access on the Astronomer website.
For Astro Private Cloud, every cluster has a base domain that you must authenticate to in order to access it. If your organization has multiple clusters, you can run Astro CLI commands to quickly move from one base domain to another. This can be useful when you need to move from an Astro Private Cloud installation to Astro and are using the Astro CLI to perform actions on both accounts.
-
Run the following command to view a list of base domains for all APC installations that you can access and to confirm your default base domain:
-
In the Astro CLI, run the following command to re-authenticate to the target base domain:
-
Run the following command to switch to a different base domain:
For example, if the base domain you wanted to switch to was
astronomer.io, you would run:
