  • credential_pathname (str) – The path to the folder where the credentials are stored. If not set, it uses the default path

Return type:

None

Example

import ee
import geetools

# cannot be displayed in the documentation as the creation
# of a new user requires user interaction
ee.Authenticate.geetools.new_user("secondary")
ee.Initialize.geetools.from_user("secondary")
ee.Number(1).getInfo()
