Remarks

This command allows a user to sign on to ArcGIS Online using their Esri Global Account details. Logging in affects other commands that would otherwise prompt for login information, for example, neither the Create Map Package or Create Layer Package commands (available in ArcGIS for Desktop) will show a login dialog when uploading data to ArcGIS Online.

Logging in creates a machine-wide token that is valid for a period of time and can be used across multiple applications.  This means that a user can log in once but will not need to log in again when running another ArcGIS Engine or ArcGIS for Desktop application.

If the user chooses to save login details and to automatically sign on, then the command will not show the login dialog again when clicked.
