In the MAAS CLI, an API profile represents a stored set of credentials and connection details for a specific MAAS server. Profiles enable users to manage multiple MAAS environments efficiently by maintaining separate authentication contexts.
Managing API profiles:
-
Login – Authenticate and create a profile using the
logincommand. -
List – Display all stored profiles with the
listcommand. -
Switch – Execute commands under a specific profile by prefixing the profile name to a command invocation.
-
Refresh – Update the CLI’s cached information about the MAAS server’s API with the
refreshcommand. -
Logout – Remove a profile and its credentials using the
logoutcommand.
Interact seamlessly with multiple MAAS environments by defining and managing profiles carefully.
