SSH keys and new servers generated via API

Posted on January 17, 2013

Is there a way to configure SSH keys on a new server based on a snapshot image? I was expecting access to my droplet via SSH keys with an image i build but it will not work if generated via the API.

We are updating the API to support SSH keys during creates and it should be ready on Monday or Tuesday if not hopefully earlier. <br> <br>Thanks

Perfect. Thank you. I will check in then as this is much needed.
