description

Manage App Store Connect authentication using the `asc` CLI tool. Use this skill when: (1) Logging in with an API key: "asc auth login", "save my credentials", "set up authentication" (2) Managing multiple accounts: "asc auth list", "switch account", "use work account", "add another account" (3) Switching the active account: "asc auth use NAME", "switch to personal account" (4) Logging out: "asc auth logout", "remove credentials", "remove account" (5) Verifying current credentials: "asc auth check", "which account am I using?" (6) Updating account settings: "asc auth update --vendor-number", "save my vendor number" (7) Explaining the credentials file format (~/.asc/credentials.json) (8) Troubleshooting 401 auth errors or "missing credentials" errors

asc auth — Multi-Account Authentication

Manages App Store Connect API key credentials in ~/.asc/credentials.json. Supports multiple named accounts with an active account that all asc commands use automatically.

Commands

login — save an account

asc auth login \
  --key-id <KEY_ID> \
  --issuer-id <ISSUER_ID> \
  --private-key-path ~/.asc/AuthKey_KEYID.p8 \
  [--name <alias>]          # optional; defaults to "default"
  [--vendor-number <number>] # optional; for sales/finance reports

• --name must not contain spaces (use hyphens or underscores, e.g. work-org)
• If no --name is given, saves under "default"
• The saved account is automatically set as active
• Saving to an existing name updates it (safe overwrite)
• Use --private-key instead of --private-key-path to pass raw PEM content
• --vendor-number is optional; saved with credentials for auto-resolution by report commands
