Hi, @muhammaddadu!
Could you please open your issue inside AppCenter-CLI repo because it is in the SDK repository at the moment?

Thanks for understanding.

I'm running appcenter 2.3.3, attempting to do this using TeamCity with the BuildAgent running on a MacBookPro, and I still encounter this error.

If I manually SSH in to the MacBookPro and attempt to login with the token, I still get the error. If I open a local terminal on the MacBookPro and do it, it works fine, but then when I try to use the remote terminal or TeamCity I get:

Error: Command '<APPCENTER COMMAND>' failed with exception "Command failed: /usr/bin/security find-generic-password -a <USERNAME> -s mobile-center-cli -g
security: SecKeychainSearchCopyNext: The specified item could not be found in the keychain.

had exactly the same error and following cmd helped me get through:

security unlock-keychain /Users/xxxx/Library/Keychains/login.keychain-db

maybe it can help you too.
