Describe the bug

Following intro tutorial I tried doing a pull

amplify pull --appId <app_id> --envName staging

I was presented with a prompt for authentication

Confirm login in the browser or manually paste in your CLI login key:

and the site was opened https://us-east-2.admin.amplifyapp.com/admin/<app_id>/staging/verify/?loginVersion=1 in Safari.

After copying and pasting the key I received error

Failed to authenticate: Cannot read property 'message' of undefined

and a new prompt

? Select the authentication method you want to use: Amplify Studio

After that I got a new error message

Failed to get credentials: Current environment cannot be determined
Use 'amplify init' in the root of your app directory to initialize your project with Amplify

amplify pull --appId <app_id> --envName staging now ends up in
