A Practical Guide to nylas auth list

Need to list all connected accounts (grants)? One command.

The nylas auth list command shows every email account connected to the CLI — Gmail, Outlook, Exchange, Yahoo, iCloud, and IMAP grants. Each entry displays the grant ID, email address, provider, and status.

How It Works

The CLI stores credentials securely in your system keychain (macOS Keychain, Linux Secret Service, or Windows Credential Manager). Tokens are refreshed automatically — you authenticate once and commands just work.
