Installation and Authentication

You will need to have Python 3.8 or higher set up to use the Roboflow Python package.

So, after you have python installed on your system, run the following command to install the Roboflow Python package:

pip install roboflow

After installing you should now have the roboflow CLI installed. Go ahead and test it.

roboflow --help

Which should show some help about the roboflow commands that you can run

If that's working, then you need to authenticate so that you can run CLI commands as your roboflow user.

roboflow login

Open the link on your browser, get the token and paste it on the terminal and hit ENTER. The credentials are saved in the disk at ~/.config/roboflow/config.json so you should only need to do that once.
