Export and import graphcool local data through graphcool cli

Question

I am trying to export data from a graphcool local deployment, so I can import it into another local deployment on my own server. The documentation suggests using graphcool export and graphcool import commands. However, trying to run

graphcool export -e export.zip -t dev

Opens a browser window redirecting me to a console.graph.cool authentication website (cloud deployment). The same happens with the graphcool import command

I am in a directory with a .graphcoolrc file:

targets:
  dev: local/ck4t9gry400040196szky9mr4
  default: dev

Is there something else that I need to export using the CLI command? I am sure I am missing some configuration or parameters here, but can't find anything in the docs...

Answer 1

You need to go to the settings page on your project, click on the authentication tab and get this console command with your token in it.

graphcool login --token "supersecrettokenheresdfasdfawerfasdfawefaweafewafdsafsdfasd"

after running this you wont be redirected to auth page.
