Connecting a dedicated ID to your public IBMid

{: #connect_dedicated_id}

To log in to a dedicated cloud where public IAM service is available, {{site.data.keyword.Bluemix_notm}} CLI asks you to log in with your public IBMid instead of the dedicated ID. {:shortdesc}

  $ ibmcloud login -a https://api.{dedicated_env}.cloud.ibm.com
  API endpoint: https://api.{dedicated_env}.cloud.ibm.com

  Public IAM token service is available in the dedicated environment.
  Login with your public IBMid, or use '--no-iam' to login as a dedicated user only.

  Email>

If your dedicated ID has already been connected to the public IBMid, it will authenticate and log in:

  Authenticating...
  OK

  Connected to dedicated user my_dedicated_id

However, if your dedicated ID has not been connected to the public IBMid, you will be prompted to manually connect to the public IBMid:

  You are logging with an IBMid that does not associated with any dedicated user.
  To set up the connection, input the credentials of the dedicated user.

  Choose a credential type:
  1. Username and password
  2. One Time Code (Get one at https://login.{dedicated_env}.cloud.ibm.com/passcode)
  Enter a number>

Select an option to input the credentials for the dedicated ID. After successful authentication, your dedicated ID will be connected to your public IBMid.

Force logging in to local UAA server

{: #force_login}

To force logging in to the UAA server with a dedicated ID, specify the --no-iam option in ibmcloud login command:

  $ ibmcloud login --no-iam
