When I run through the doctl auth init and apply my access token, it works great and says validating token . . .OK
After the validation I run doctl account get and it gives me and error “access token is required”
I have recreated the token 3 times, it always authenticates just fine, when I run the account get command it fails each and ever time
suggestions / help please

Found the answer - you need to specify the --context like you do with doctl suth init.
That worked just fine
