### Synopsis

    npm logout

Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.

### Description

When logged into a registry that supports token-based authentication, tell the server to end this token's session. This will invalidate the token everywhere you're using it, not just for the current environment.

When logged into a legacy registry that uses username and password authentication, this will clear the credentials in your user configuration. In this case, it will only affect the current environment.

If `--scope` is provided, this will find the credentials for the registry connected to that scope, if set.

### Configuration

#### `registry`

- Default: "https://registry.npmjs.org/"
- Type: URL

The base URL of the npm registry.

#### `scope`

- Default: the scope of the current project, if any, or ""
- Type: String

Associate an operation with a scope for a scoped registry.

Useful when logging in to or out of a private registry:

    # log in, linking the scope to the custom registry
    npm login --scope=@mycorp --registry=https://registry.mycorp.com

    # log out, removing the link and the auth token
    npm logout --scope=@mycorp

This will cause `@mycorp` to be mapped to the registry for future installation of packages specified according to the pattern `@mycorp/package`.

This will also cause `npm init` to create a scoped package.

    # accept all defaults, and create a package named "@foo/whatever",
    # instead of just named "whatever"
    npm init --scope=@foo --yes
