Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema/issues/684

Describe the bug
I was trying to stream my terminal session using asciinema stream -r.

The exact error message you received:

No asciinema server configured for this CLI.
Enter the server URL to use by default: https://asciinema.org

Error: this CLI hasn't been authenticated with asciinema.org - run `ascinema auth` first

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. asciinema stream -r
  2. See error

Versions:

  • OS: Arch Linux
  • asciinema cli: 3.0.0-rc.3

Additional context
I initially tried ascinema auth as suggested, which resulted in command not found. I then realized it was a typo and successfully ran asciinema auth.

So after you ran asciinema auth and opened the link a browser, stream still gives the same message?

No, after that everything else worked fine.

Oh, I didn't find any closed or open issue about it, that's why I created the issue.
