In this step we will create a local certificate and then store the certification on the block chain
- NOTE - for those familiar with previous Akash CLI versions the following commands for cert creation have changed. We believe the new command sets in this version make steps more clear.
- Ensure that prior steps in this guide have been completed and that you have a funded wallet before attempting certificate creation.
- Your certificate needs to be created only once per account and can be used across all deployments.
- Note: If it errors with
Error: certificate error: cannot overwrite certificate
, then add--overwrite
should you want to overwrite the cert. Normally you can ignore that error and proceed with publishing the cert (next step).
provider-services tx cert generate client --from $AKASH_KEY_NAME
provider-services tx cert publish client --from $AKASH_KEY_NAME
