Quickstart

The init command sets up enumctl in one step. It logs you in and configures your default organization and project.

Usage

enumctl init

This runs an interactive flow that:

1. Asks whether you already have an enum account. Answer no to create one (same as enumctl auth register): enumctl asks for your details, emails you a code, and logs you in once the address is confirmed
2. Otherwise logs you in (same as enumctl auth login, including device authorization on SSH)
3. Prompts you to select a default organization and saves it
4. Prompts you to select a default project, or to name your first one if the organization has none

This is the recommended way to get started after installing enumctl.

Headless or scripted setup

On SSH sessions or in scripts, skip prompts and force device login:

enumctl init --project-id proj-... --yes --device

Flag	Description
--project-id / -p	Default project ID (required for non-interactive use)
--org-id	Organization ID (skips the org picker when set)
--yes / -y	Skip confirmation prompts
--device	Use device authorization for login
--browser	Force browser callback login even on SSH sessions
--skip-login	Skip login; fail if not already authenticated

When to use

• First-time setup after installing enumctl
• Switching to a new account, organization, and project in one step
• Onboarding new team members

What’s next

After running init, you can immediately start using other commands:

enumctl dns zones list
enumctl projects list
