Deployment Guide

4. By scrolling down you will find a notification that you need to add your Access Key and API Token Key from your Scaleway account. This way the process will be much easier and faster. Don’t worry, we will not keep your data in our database. After deployment, it will be automatically deleted.API tokens are unique identifiers associated with your Scaleway account and consist of an Access Key and a Secret Key. The Secret key (Token) is required to authenticate against the API and will only be displayed when you create the token. Make sure to make a note of it and to keep it secret.

10. The deployment process begins. You may see the progress status and wait 10-15 minutes until it is completed. After it is 100 % completed, refresh the TryDirect page and click on Info icon to find out how to apply the SSL certificate.


11. TryDirect deploys a special stack application called Status Panel. The Status Panel is used to help you activate/deactivate SSL certificates. Here you can also check the status of all deployed services on your server. Right after the stack is successfully deployed, you will receive an E-mail notification with the link to your server IP address, login and password. Status Panel link will look like this http://your_server_ip:5000

When SSL certificate deployment is done, Status Panel can be paused or removed.
