# wiz logout
Use wiz logout to log out of your eWizard CLI. The logout operation opens the browser message.
This command has no options.
# wiz config [options]
Use the wiz config command to show the URL of your current eWizard instance. Use this command with options to set the URL of your current eWizard instance or reset the instance configuration.
Options | Description |
|---|---|
-w, --ewizard [YOUR INSTANCE] | Specify the eWizard instance to use with eWizard CLI. The instance starts with https:// by default. For example, wiz config -w https://viseven.ewizard.io. |
-r, --reset | This command resets your eWizard CLI configuration in the ./.wiz/config.json file. For example, wiz config -r. After you perform the reset, eWizard CLI asks you to specify your eWizard instance and log in again. The new configuration is written in the config.json file. |
-h, --help | Show help for the wiz config command and options. For example, wiz config -h. |
When you log in for the first time, eWizard CLI creates the .wiz service directory in the root directory where you've installed eWizard CLI. This directory contains the config.json file with your eWizard instance URL, token, etc. If you delete this directory, you will need to log in and enter your instance again.
