`amp context` resolves the active credential and reports the authenticated organization.

```bash
amp context
```

In an interactive terminal, `amp context` prints a human-readable summary. Pipe the output to a file or another command, or pass `--json`, to get raw API JSON instead.

`amp context` requires the `projects:read` scope. If it fails with a scope error, go to [Authentication](https://amplitude.com/docs/developers/cli/authentication#required-scopes) to confirm your credential's scopes, or [Troubleshooting](https://amplitude.com/docs/developers/cli/troubleshooting) for other credential issues.
