Once you've set a password on your scratch org, you can connect to it using the CLI.

To do so, you'll need the My Domain login URL for your scratch org. When logged into the scratch org, your URL bar will look something like:

https://xxx-yyy-zzz-dev-ed.lightning.force.com/

To construct the My Domain URL, take the URL from your browser and replace the<code> .lightning.force.com</code> part with<code> .my.salesforce.com</code>. Your My Domain URL should look like:

https://xxx-yyy-zzz-dev-ed.my.salesforce.com

You can use this to log into the org with the<code> force:auth:web:login</code> command:

sfdx force:auth:web:login -r https://xxx-yyy-zzz-dev-ed.my.salesforce.com -a someAlias
