# CLI Authentication
TACOS (TF Automation and Collaboration Software) are platforms that perform as part of their
offering OpenTF runs to provision infrastructure, offering a collaboration-focused
environment that makes it easier for teams to use OpenTF together.
OpenTF CLI integrates with TACOS in several ways — it can be a
front-end for CLI-driven runs, and can also use some TACOS as a state backend, a private module
registry, or a private provider registry. All of these integrations require you to authenticate OpenTF CLI
with your TACOS account.
The best way to handle CLI authentication is with the `login` and `logout`
commands, which help automate the process of getting an API token for your
TACOS user account.
For details, see:

- [The `opentf logout` command](/opentf/cli/commands/logout)
