sfdx: Open a specific organization in the default web browser.
$ sfdx force:org:open --targetusername ${organization}
try on your machine

The command "sfdx force:org:open --targetusername ${organization}" is used to open a Salesforce org in the Salesforce CLI (Command-Line Interface) environment.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "sfdx": It represents the Salesforce CLI, which is Salesforce's command-line interface for managing and interacting with Salesforce orgs and development resources.
  • "force:org:open": This is a specific command within the Salesforce CLI that allows you to open a Salesforce org.
  • "--targetusername ${organization}": It's a flag or option used to specify the username or alias of the Salesforce org you want to open. In this case, we're using a placeholder variable "${organization}" to indicate that this command should be replaced with an actual Salesforce org username or alias.

By running this command with the appropriate username or alias, the Salesforce CLI will open the specified Salesforce org in your default web browser, allowing you to access and work with that org directly from the CLI.

Note: Make sure you have the Salesforce CLI installed and properly set up before running this command.
