Unfortunately the web console does not support copy/paste functions. It is intended as an emergency access method and not for daily use. We strongly recommend using an SSH client to connect to and manage your droplet.

This guide will assist you in connecting to your droplet via SSH from Windows, OSX(macOS) or Linux.
