NAME
    gcloud alpha auth print-access-token - print an access token for the
        specified account

SYNOPSIS
    gcloud alpha auth print-access-token [ACCOUNT] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION
    (ALPHA) Print an access token for the specified account. See RFC6749
    (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749) for more information about access
    tokens.

    Note that token itself may not be enough to access some services. If you
    use the token with curl or similar tools, you may see permission errors
    similar to "API has not been used in project 32555940559 before or it is
    disabled.". If it happens, you may need to provide a quota project in the
    "X-Goog-User-Project" header. For example,

        $ curl -H "X-Goog-User-Project: your-project" \
            -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
            foo.googleapis.com

    The identity that granted the token must have the serviceusage.services.use
    permission on the provided project. See
    https://cloud.google.com/apis/docs/system-parameters for more information.

EXAMPLES
    To print access tokens:

        $ gcloud alpha auth print-access-token

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
     [ACCOUNT]
        Account to get the access token for. If not specified, the current
        active account will be used.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
    These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account,
    --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format,
    --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet,
    --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.

    Run $ gcloud help for details.

NOTES
    This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this
    command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct
    project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early
    access allowlist. These variants are also available:

        $ gcloud auth print-access-token

        $ gcloud beta auth print-access-token
