device Commands (Deprecated)

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 We keep this reference information about the sfdx-style commands as-is for historical reference only.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 org login device command instead. Here’s how the flags changed between the old and new commands; if a flag isn't listed, the old and new names are the same:

Removed flag: --loglevel. Use the SF_LOG_LEVEL environment variable instead.
Changed flag name: Old name --clientid. New name: --client-id.
Changed flag name: Old name --setdefaultdevhubusername. New name: --set-default-dev-hub.
Changed flag name: Old name --setalias. New name: --alias.
Changed flag name: Old name --instanceurl. New name: --instance-url.
Changed flag name: Old name --setdefaultusername. New name: --set-default.

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 2, 2023.
