I can't login with ccloud login

I am using the exact account credentials I use for confluent cloud login…

Is there anything I am missing?

What other credentials would it imply it needs?

Password: *********
Error: incorrect email or password

Suggestions:
To avoid session timeouts, you can save credentials to netrc file with ccloud login --save.

Also want to confirm, I ran my script but its not consuming anything to cloud. I need to be logged in from my local machine where I am trying to use a file pulse connector? So I need to login to cloud for it to work? I am fairly sure my configurations are set but nothing is updating on cloud.
