Authentication

The AhaSend CLI uses profile-based authentication to manage your API credentials and support multiple environments.

​
Getting Started

You’ll need your API Key and Account ID from the AhaSend dashboard.

​
Interactive Login

ahasend auth login
You’ll be prompted for your API Key, Account ID, and an optional profile name.

​
Direct Login

ahasend auth login \
  --api-key YOUR_API_KEY \
  --account-id YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID \
  --profile production

​
Environment Variables

For automation or CI/CD: 
export AHASEND_API_KEY="your-api-key"
export AHASEND_ACCOUNT_ID="your-account-id"

​
Profiles

Profiles let you manage multiple environments easily.

​
Creating Profiles

ahasend auth login --profile production
ahasend auth login --profile staging

​
Switching Profiles

# Change default profile
ahasend auth switch production

# Use profile for single command
ahasend messages send --profile staging \
  --from [email protected] \
  --to [email protected] \
  --subject "Test"

​
Check Status

ahasend auth status

​
Remove Profile

ahasend auth logout

​
Configuration

Credentials are stored in ~/.ahasend/config.yaml with secure file permissions.
Keep your API keys secure. Never commit credentials to version control.

​
