# npm-logout(1)

## Log out of the registry

### Synopsis

```bash
npm logout [--registry=<url>] [--scope=<@scope>]
```

### 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/

The base URL of the npm package registry. If `scope` is also specified,
it takes precedence.

#### scope

Default: The scope of your current project, if any, otherwise none.

If specified, you will be logged out of the specified scope. See [`scope`](/using-npm/npm-scope).

```bash
npm logout --scope=@myco
```
