confluent login

Description

Log in to Confluent Platform.

Starting in the 1.24.0 release, you can log in to Confluent Platform non-interactively using the following environment variables: CONFLUENT_USERNAME, CONFLUENT_PASSWORD, CONFLUENT_MDS_URL, CONFLUENT_CA_CERT_PATH

In a non-interactive login, CONFLUENT_MDS_URL replaces the --url flag, and CONFLUENT_CA_CERT_PATH replaces the --ca-cert-path flag.

Even with the above environment variables set, you can force an interactive login using the --prompt flag.

This command is required for RBAC.
