Also, anyone else notice the documentation for `authenticate` is inconsistent? the syntax doesn't show all the options, and the Options help contradicts itself and the example. i.e. 'account' option is listed as required but the example doesn't even include it.

from the help above, my expectation was that I can provide an `account` and a default `authid` will be created when the browser pops up and has me login with a specific role?

The `-account` option is still there because its needed when you are saving token.

If you are doing browser based authentication, you dont need to provide anything except authid.

Then in browser you can select the role you want.

is there a way to list all registered authids?

and I would like to request a default authid format to be applied (perhaps match the hostname since that also has to be unique e.g. 12345-sb1)

Yes you can list all available `authid`
In sdfcli run : `sdfcli manageauth -list`
In suitecloud you can run : `suitecloud account:setup` -&gt; This will give you an option to select an existing authid which will be set as default for that project. Or you can create a new one.
