title: CLI
description: yarn twenty commands for executing functions, streaming logs, managing app installations, and switching remotes.
icon: "terminal"
---
Beyond `dev`, `build`, `add`, and `typecheck`, the `yarn twenty` CLI provides commands for executing functions, viewing logs, and managing app installations.
## Executing functions (`yarn twenty exec`)
Run a logic function manually without triggering it via HTTP, cron, or database event:
```bash filename="Terminal"
# Execute by function name
yarn twenty exec -n create-new-post-card
# Execute by universalIdentifier
yarn twenty exec -u e56d363b-0bdc-4d8a-a393-6f0d1c75bdcf
# Pass a JSON payload
yarn twenty exec -n create-new-post-card -p '{"name": "Hello"}'
# Execute the post-install function
yarn twenty exec --postInstall
```
## Viewing function logs (`yarn twenty logs`)
Stream execution logs for your app's logic functions:
```bash filename="Terminal"
# Stream all function logs
yarn twenty logs
# Filter by function name
yarn twenty logs -n create-new-post-card
# Filter by universalIdentifier
yarn twenty logs -u e56d363b-0bdc-4d8a-a393-6f0d1c75bdcf
```
<Note>
This is different from `yarn twenty server logs`, which shows the Docker container logs. `yarn twenty logs` shows your app's function execution logs from the Twenty server.
</Note>
## Uninstalling an app (`yarn twenty uninstall`)
Remove your app from the active workspace:
```bash filename="Terminal"
yarn twenty uninstall
# Skip the confirmation prompt
yarn twenty uninstall --yes
```
## Managing remotes
A **remote** is a Twenty server that your app connects to. During setup, the scaffolder creates one for you automatically. You can add more remotes or switch between them at any time.
```bash filename="Terminal"
# Add a new remote (opens a browser for OAuth login)
yarn twenty remote add
# Connect to a local Twenty server (auto-detects port 2020 or 3000)
yarn twenty remote add --local
# Add a remote non-interactively (useful for CI)
yarn twenty remote add --api-url https://your-twenty-server.com --api-key $TWENTY_API_KEY --as my-remote
# List all configured remotes
yarn twenty remote list
# Switch the active remote
yarn twenty remote switch <name>
```
Your credentials are stored in `~/.twenty/config.json`.
