Question

Hey folks trying to authenticate with prefect Cloud via a startup script on a VM with the following command ```prefect cloud login k PREFECT API KEY``` and I m getting the following error ```When not using an interactive terminal you must supply a ` key` and ` workspace```` Do I have to hardcode a workspace for this to work

Zanie · Answer

Hey Yes you need to select a workspace What s your expectation otherwise

Danilo Drobac · Answer

When I ran it before it defaulted to the only workspace I had available in Prefect Cloud

Zanie · Answer

I see that s pretty reasonable slightly smiling face

Zanie · Answer

Right now we re just checking right at the start of the command <https github com PrefectHQ prefect blob main src prefect cli cloud py L303>

Danilo Drobac · Answer

It s not an issue or difficult to fix I was just surprised at the error when it didn t happen when running the commands individually instead

Zanie · Answer

We already have logic for retrieving workspaces so we probably just want to make that check later

Zanie · Answer

Sweet This one will be a little tricky because there s a lot going on in that command

Zanie · Answer

We have a little bit of documentation at <https docs prefect io contributing overview >

Zanie · Answer

Basically Download the repository Make the changes Add test coverage for the change you can run just the relevant tests with `pytest tests cli test cloud py` Push the changes to a fork and open a pull request this is much easier with the `gh` CLI
