# p0 logout

### **Overview** <a href="#overview" id="overview"></a>

The `p0 logout` command removes all P0 CLI credentials, configuration files, and cached data from your local environment. This helps ensure that no sensitive information remains after you are finished using the CLI.

When you run `p0 logout`, the CLI will:

* Delete your saved identity file (authentication token)
* Remove all locally stored P0 configuration files
* Clean up any CLI caches related to your P0 session

### Usage <a href="#usage" id="usage"></a>

```shell
p0 logout
```

No additional arguments are required. After running this command, you will need to log in again with `p0 login` before using other P0 CLI commands.

### **What Files Are Removed** <a href="#what-files-are-removed" id="what-files-are-removed"></a>

| File Location         | Purpose                       |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| `~/.p0/identity.json` | Authentication token and info |
| `~/.p0/config.json`   | CLI configuration             |
| CLI cache files       | Session/cache data            |

If you use multiple organizations or custom configuration paths, `p0 logout` will remove the relevant files for your current context.

### Notes <a href="#notes" id="notes"></a>

* Use `p0 logout` on shared systems, CI environments, or when rotating credentials to ensure proper cleanup.
* Attempting to use privileged CLI commands after logout requires you to authenticate again with `p0 login`.
