@salmanfarisvp, do you experience any issues in v1.0.3, should you have the chance to install it?

[salmanfarisvp]

@nicomiguelino I have another issue, reagarding "Missing v1.0.3 in Screenly CLI for Mac"

Update:

I have upgraded to version 1.0.3, but I am still experiencing the same issue.

@salmanfarisvp is this still relevant?

[nicomiguelino]

@salmanfarisvp, are you still having issues on macOS?

[salmanfarisvp]

@sergey-borovkov and @nicomiguelino issue has been resolved.

@sergey-borovkov I tried to fresh install the CLI version 1.0.4 on my mac and I got the same issue.

Update: Found a solution, we need to authenticate to run the app locally and generate the mock data. Is this a feature or a bug? @sergey-borovkov
