Hello, I'm having issues trying to get pulumi cli to actually login to the pulumi cloud, if I don't specify this url it just does `file://~`  as the login url instead

Did you happen to configure backend.url in your Pulumi.yaml-file?

Something like:
```backend:
  url: file://~```
Otherwise it should default to Pulumi Cloud.

<http://api.pulumi.com|api.pulumi.com> but yeh this should work with no argument. You might have the option in your YAML file, or maybe set the PULUMI_BACKEND envvar?
