Before filing this issue, please ensure you're using the latest CLI by running swa --version and comparing to the latest version on npm.

Are you accessing the CLI from the default port :4280 ?

• No, I am using a different port number (--port) and accessing the CLI from that port
• Yes, I am accessing the CLI from port :4280

Make sure you are accessing the URL printed in the console when running swa start!

ℹ️ NOTE: Make sure to enable debug logs when running any swa commands using --verbose=silly

I think you might able to implement swa logout for this. Sometimes I just want to logout to clear Azure credential cache.

Here is the way to clear all credentials created by swa-cli:

PowerShell

cmdkey.exe /list | findstr swa-cli | ForEach-Object {
  cmdkey /delete:$($_.Split(' ')[5])
}

Hi @doggy8088, thanks for pointing this out, we have found the root cause and created a PR for the fix. The flag -cc is not working because -c is a global option for swa-cli.config.json path and that is taking priority when -cc flag is used. For fixing this, we have changed the short-form of flag from -cc to -CC. Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

@rupareddy5-21 Are you consider to have a swa logout subcommand?

Hi @doggy8088, this is a great suggestion. Currently the team is working towards supporting the clear credentials flag. Could you help us understand better on whether you would still be looking for a swa logout option? We can definitely pick it up if the current support for clear-credentials is not enough. Thanks!

@Reshmi-Sriram I tried latest version today. (1.1.6)

I still think the swa logout still required. Right now, the -CC or --clear-credentials option is to clear persisted credentials before login. It still a login process. It's not intuitive for clear credential. The use case could be someone login at other's or public computer. After been deployed, I simply want a "LOGOUT" to clear credential. What do you think?
