Set username aliases for the Salesforce CLI.
This command is deprecated. As of April 20, 2023, we no longer maintain this section of the
command reference. Refer to the reference information about the sf-style
commands instead, which we update regularly. We keep this reference
information about the sfdx-style commands as-is
for historical reference only.
Don't worry, this command and its flags continue to work the same as
before, and any scripts that use the command won’t break. However, we recommend
that you start using the equivalent sf-style alias set command instead. Here’s how the flags changed between
the sfdx and sf commands; if a flag isn't listed, the sfdx and sf names are the
same:
- Removed flag: --loglevel. Use the SF_LOG_LEVEL environment variable instead.
For background information about this change, read this blog post, which describes how
we've updated many of the existing sfdx
commands to use the improvements we made in sf. We improved this particular command on March 9, 2023.
Help for alias:set
You can associate an alias with only one username at a time. If you’ve set an alias multiple times, the alias points to the most recent username.
