# Customer intent: "As a cloud administrator, I want to log in to Azure using the CLI with a workaround, so that I can securely access my subscription and manage resources without issues."

### azd auth workaround
This workaround requires you to have the [Azure CLI][install-azure-cli] installed.
1. Open a terminal window and log in with the Azure CLI using the [`az login`][az-login] command with the `--scope` parameter set to `https://graph.microsoft.com/.default`.
```azurecli-interactive
az login --scope https://graph.microsoft.com/.default
```
You should be redirected to an authentication page in a new tab to create a browser access token, as shown in the following example:
```output
https://login.microsoftonline.com/organizations/oauth2/v2.0/authorize?clientid=<your_client_id>.
```
2. Copy the localhost URL of the webpage you received after attempting to sign in with `azd auth login`.
3. In a new terminal window, use the following `curl` request to log in. Make sure you replace the `<localhost>` placeholder with the localhost URL you copied in the previous step.
```console
curl <localhost>
```
A successful login outputs an HTML webpage, as shown in the following example:
```output
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="60;url=https://docs.microsoft.com/cli/azure/">
<title>Login successfully</title>

<h3>You have logged into Microsoft Azure!</h3>
<p>You can close this window, or we will redirect you to the <a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/cli/azure/">Azure CLI documentation</a> in 1 minute.</p>
<h3>Announcements</h3>
<p>[Windows only] Azure CLI is collecting feedback on using the <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/windows/uwp/security/web-account-manager">Web Account Manager</a> (WAM) broker for the login experience.</p>
<p>You may opt-in to use WAM by running the following commands:</p>
<code>
az config set core.allow_broker=true<br>
az account clear<br>
az login
</code>
</body>
</html>
```
4. Close the current terminal and open the original terminal. You should see a JSON list of your subscriptions.
5. Copy the `id` field of the subscription you want to use.
6. Set your subscription using the [`az account set`][az-account-set] command.
```azurecli-interactive
az account set --subscription <subscription_id>
```
