Railway CLI account-level API token support (for 1Password Shell Plugin)

I know the Railway CLI supports project-level API tokens, which work like this:

RAILWAY_TOKEN="my_project_level_api_token" railway run

RAILWAY_TOKEN="my_project_level_api_token" railway run

However, when I try using an account-level API token:

RAILWAY_TOKEN="my_account_level_api_token" railway run
# or
RAILWAY_TOKEN="my_account_level_api_token" railway whoami

RAILWAY_TOKEN="my_account_level_api_token" railway run
# or
RAILWAY_TOKEN="my_account_level_api_token" railway whoami

It doesn’t work, and I couldn’t find any documentation about this. Is account-level token support available, or could it be added? This feature would be useful for integrations like the 1Password Shell Plugin. Thanks!

Edit: Solved now. See this GitHub issue for more info. All you need to do is pass a RAILWAY_API_TOKEN as your account-level API token and it works great. Below example shows how you can use it:

RAILWAY_API_TOKEN="my_account_level_api_token" railway whoami
# Shows your account info

RAILWAY_API_TOKEN="my_account_level_api_token" railway whoami
# Shows your account info
