# auth
|
|
|
|
The `auth` command groups subcommands for interacting with Vault's auth methods.
|
|
Users can list, enable, disable, and get help for different auth methods.
|
|
|
|
For more information, please see the [auth method
|
|
documentation](/docs/auth) or the [authentication
|
|
concepts](/docs/concepts/auth) page.
|
|
|
|
To authenticate to Vault as a user or machine, use the [`vault login`](/docs/commands/login) command instead. This command is for
|
|
interacting with the auth methods themselves, not authenticating to Vault.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
Enable an auth method:
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
$ vault auth enable userpass
|
|
Success! Enabled userpass auth method at: userpass/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
List all auth methods:
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
$ vault auth list
|
|
Path Type Description
|
|
---- ---- -----------
|
|
token/ token token based credentials
|
|
userpass/ userpass n/a
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Get help about how to authenticate to a particular auth method:
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
$ vault auth help userpass/
|
|
Usage: vault login -method=userpass [CONFIG K=V...]
|
|
# ...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Disable an auth method:
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
$ vault auth disable userpass/
|
|
Success! Disabled the auth method (if it existed) at: userpass/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Tune an auth method:
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
$ vault auth tune -max-lease-ttl=30m userpass/
|
|
Success! Tuned the auth method at: userpass/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|

|
|
