HCP CLI

The hcp CLI lets you administer HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) resources and services. You can interact with hcp directly or integrate it in scripts to automate your workflows. The HCP CLI is available across most platforms and lets you efficiently execute common platform tasks and manage HCP resources at scale.

Installation

Refer to the installation guide for instructions on installing the HCP CLI.

Getting started

To get started with the hcp CLI, first login to your account:

$ hcp auth login

This will open a browser to allow you to interactively login. For other ways to login, refer to the hcp auth login command reference.

After logging in, configure the CLI to interact with your HCP organization and project. This command will interactively prompt you to select the organization and project.

$ hcp profile init

Once you have selected the HCP organization and project, you can use the HCP CLI to manage the resources for that project. If you want to quickly run a command against a different project, pass the --project flag to the command.

You have configured the HCP CLI! To verify, retrieve a list of HCP organizations you have access to.

$ hcp organizations list
