Question
I just installed Data Control Tower (DCT). However, I'm unsure what the default login username/password is.
Answer
For the first login, the administrator will use an API Key rather than a username and password.
The API key is automatically generated and presented in the DCT Gateway Pod's logs. For security reasons, you use this key to create a new administrative user and immediately delete the API Key user afterward. We call this API Key the "bootstrapping" API Key.
Directions
Navigate to DCT's Kubernetes cluster to perform a `kubectl` or `oc` command to view the Gateway Pod's logs. You might need to consult your Cloud Administrator.
The API Key will look something like the following early in the Gateway logs:
````
NEWLY GENERATED API KEY: 1.0p9PMkZO4Hgy...
````
Use this key to authenticate via the API Key approach on the DCT homepage.
