Fusioncat is currently in its alpha stage. The main API server is located at: https://api.staging.fusioncatalyst.io/Please note that breaking changes and bugs are to be expected, as the product is still under active development.

​
Authentication Commands

The paw auth commands allow you to authenticate with the Fusioncat API.

​
Commands

​
auth signin

Sign in to an existing Fusioncat account. 
paw auth signin --email <email> --password <password>

# This call will return an authentication token that can be used for subsequent API calls.
# export FC_ACCESS_TOKEN="your-auth-token"

​
Options

  • --email (required): Your email address
  • --password (required): Your password

​
Examples

# Sign in without saving token (one-time use)
paw auth signin --email john@example.com --password mypassword

# This call will return an authentication token that can be used for subsequent API calls.
# export FC_ACCESS_TOKEN="your-auth-token"

​
auth signup

Create a new Fusioncat account. 
paw auth signup --email <email> --password <password>

# This call will return an authentication token that can be used for subsequent API calls.
# export FC_ACCESS_TOKEN="your-auth-token"

​
Options

  • --email (required): Your email address
  • --password (required): Your password (must be secure)

​
Examples

# Create new account and save token
paw auth signup --email newuser@example.com --password securepassword
export FC_ACCESS_TOKEN="your-auth-token"

​
auth me

Get information about the current authenticated user. 
paw auth me
This command requires a valid authentication token in the FC_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable.

​
Examples

# Check current user
paw auth me

​
Token Management

​
Using Environment Variables

# View your current token
echo $FC_ACCESS_TOKEN

# Manually set a token
export FC_ACCESS_TOKEN="your-auth-token"

# Remove authentication
unset FC_ACCESS_TOKEN

​
Token Security

  • Tokens expire after a certain period (check with your administrator)
  • Never commit tokens to version control
  • Use environment-specific token management for CI/CD

​
Troubleshooting

​
Invalid Credentials

If you receive an authentication error:
  1. Verify your email and password are correct
  2. Check if your account is active
  3. Ensure you’re using the correct server URL

​
Token Expired

If your token has expired: 
# Sign in again to get a new token
paw auth signin --email your@email.com --password yourpassword --save-token

​
No Token Found

If you see “authentication required” errors: 
# Ensure you have a token set
echo $FC_ACCESS_TOKEN

# If empty, sign in again
paw auth signin --email your@email.com --password yourpassword --save-token
