At the moment you can only have one "global" backend on your machine, rather than one per project / stack etc.

When you change backends it means when you next run `pulumi up` it'll be authenticating against whatever backend you last logged in to

Ah, that should be my 6th question today!

And when you logout it therefore requires you to login (globally) before you can run a pulumi up again

I actually want to use two logins for the same project

local for quicker testing but then --standard for the real thing.

So at the moment, you'll have to login and logout again to move between the two. I don't recommend it as it might cause your stack to get messed up.

We do have an issue open discussing having multiple backends: <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/6029>

Yeah I understand the possibility for confusion, but if I use different stack names it shouldn't be an issue. I just don't want the extra lag when testing.

Thank you for the link to the issue :slightly_smiling_face:
