Hi. I’m new to Digital Ocean. Apparently, I’m suppose to get an email when I create a new droplet that includes my password and SSH info. But, I’ve not received anything.
I made sure I didn’t add any SSH keys when creating a droplet. I’ve also destroyed a droplet and created another one to see if it’ll give me a new email, but still, nothing.
I’ve read up on some questions about the same problem with no solution. Just disappointing to see no fix to this even though it’s a problem. It should be acknowledged.
Again, I’m new to here. And I guarantee new users will be facing this problem every time.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
