EdgeWorkers CLI

The EdgeWorkers command line interface (CLI) expedites the process of registering, uploading, activating and testing EdgeWorkers functions on the Akamai Edge network.

Technical Setup Requirements

To use this tool you need:

• Akamai CLI installed. If you have a Mac with brew installed, run this command: brew install akamai.
• An API client that contains the EdgeWorkers APIs with read-write access. Follow the steps in Get Started with APIs to learn how to configure credentials to access the API.
• Node version 8+

Installing EdgeWorkers CLI

Use the following Akamai CLI command to install the latest EdgeWorkers CLI package:

akamai install edgeworkers

Register New EdgeWorker Identifier

Register a new EdgeWorker id to reference in Property Manager behavior.

Usage: akamai edgeworkers register [options] <group-identifier> <edgeworker-name>

Option	Description
-h, --help	output usage information

Argument	Existence	Description
group-identifier	required	Luna Access Group value (usually number) to check for EdgeWorkers permissions
