Question: I am attempting to upload to my wifes profile using the immich cli
I believe its uploading the photos to the admin profile. I generated an API key and was sure to login to the cli using her email/credentials. I got confirmation that I was on her account yet the photos seem to be uploading to my profile. These are large google takeout dumps. I'm a little frustrated at my lack of understanding as I've already added a significant amount of her google takeout to my photo store. Could someone advise me on how to get this sorted out?

Information
In order to be able to effectively help you, we need you to provide clear information to show what the problem is. The exact details needed vary per case, but here is a list of things to consider:
- Your docker-compose.yml and .env files.
- Logs from all the containers and their status (see above).
- All the troubleshooting steps you've tried so far.
- Any recent changes you've made to Immich or your system.
- Details about your system (both software/OS and hardware).

- The version of the Immich server, mobile app, and other relevant pieces.
- Any other information that you think might be relevant.
Please paste files and logs with proper code formatting, and especially avoid blurry screenshots.
Without the right information we can't work out what the problem is. Help us help you ;)
If this ticket can be closed you can use the /close command, and re-open it later if needed.Ensure you're using her API key and it'll work. If you have any API keys generated on your account you could delete them to ensure that a wrong key isn't cached in your upload script somewhere
I am sure its an API key from her account.
I used:
sudo immich login (site server):port/api (then her api)
it responded logging in then verified that it logged into her email address and user name then I started
immich upload (smb mount) --recursive
I can try a different removing the api keys, it does take 12+ hours to check hashes and duplicates I just want to make sure im doing it right before I restart the process.
I'd use immich-go for a large import myself as it checks files differently and faster, but what you did sounds like it should work
