​
base44 whoami

Display the currently authenticated user.

​
Syntax

​
Authentication

Required: Yes. If not authenticated, you’ll be prompted to login first.

​
What It Does

  • If a workspace API key is present (BASE44_API_KEY env var, prefixed b44k_), reports that instead of a logged-in user
  • Otherwise, reads stored authentication data and displays the email of the currently logged-in user

​
Output

With a workspace API key set:

​
Use Cases

  • Verify you’re logged in before running other commands
  • Check which account you’re currently using
  • Confirm authentication is working properly
  • Useful in scripts or CI checks to verify credentials

​
Notes

  • If you’re not logged in, the command will prompt you to authenticate first
  • The email displayed matches your Base44 account email
  • If BASE44_API_KEY is set to a workspace API key, whoami reports the key (truncated) instead of an email — no interactive login is needed in that case
