Operation

This command is used with Forge Containers, which is currently available under Forge's Early Access Program (EAP). EAPs are offered to selected users for testing and feedback purposes.

APIs and features under EAP are:

  • Unsupported and subject to change without notice
  • Not recommended for use in production environments

Use forge containers get-login to retrieve a temporary API token, which can be used for authenticating with the Forge Containers registry (namely, forge-ecr.services.atlassian.com).

Use this token with your image management tools. For example, use the token with podman login to https://docs.podman.io/en/v5.1.0/markdown/podman-login.1.html first with the Forge Containers registry; afterwards, you can use podman push to https://docs.podman.io/en/v2.1.1/markdown/podman-push.1.html.

The forge containers get-login command must be run in the app's root folder (that is, where the manifest file is located).

For a complete list of forge containers subcommands, refer to the command's reference.

Login session

The API token provided by forge containers get-login authenticates a login session that:

  • Is app-specific
  • Expires after 12 hours
  • Becomes invalid once the app is updated

Example

With podman login:

1
2
forge containers get-login --password-only | podman login --username AWS --password-stdin forge-ecr.services.atlassian.com
