Can't run Railway CLI down command with project token

hey , it is possible to run the railway down command with railway project token without logging in. I'd like to use this in a github action workflow after running e2e tests on a staging environment.

- name: Remove Most Recent Deployment
        run: railway down --yes
        env:
          RAILWAY_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.RAILWAY_TOKEN }}

- name: Remove Most Recent Deployment
        run: railway down --yes
        env:
          RAILWAY_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.RAILWAY_TOKEN }}

Currently it's giving: Unauthorized. Please login with railway login

Project ID: N/A

N/A

I believe you would need to be logged in, I don't think there is a way to use just the project ID, as it needs your auth token to interact with your resources

i see, so it's different to the railway up command?

Honestly, I am not 100% sure, I have not used the CLI for github actions.

- name: Deploy run: railway up env: RAILWAY_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.RAILWAY_TOKEN }} It's a bit confusing coz the above is working. So it looks like only certain commands are allowed

removing/restarting/re-deploying a service/deployment requires the use of the account token

Snuzzn•13mo ago

ohh i didn't know there was an account token. I'll try that. Thank you! is the account token same as api token?

Brody•13mo ago

yes https://railway.app/account/tokens

Snuzzn•13mo ago

what's the expected variable name for the account token when running the command

Brody•13mo ago

isnt it RAILWAY_TOKEN?

Snuzzn•13mo ago

when I use that, it seems to think I'm referring to project token: Project Token not found

Brody•13mo ago

try RAILWAY_API_TOKEN https://github.com/railwayapp/cli/blob/master/src/config.rs#L115

Snuzzn•13mo ago

it doent seem to work: Unauthorized. Please login with railway login

Brody•13mo ago

and you are giving it the api token from the account page?
