Generate Session Key

​

Generate the key

1. Make the request from your VM (where your validator node container is running) using the following command:

curl -X 'POST' \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"id":1, "jsonrpc":"2.0", "method": "author_rotateKeys", "params":[]}' http://localhost:9944

2. Copy the key from the response:

{"jsonrpc":"2.0","result":"0xf22d82cfcf4402990a0bef3abefd1e58217ff3a86c548d30f1495fd529460d76","id":1}

3. In this case, the key is:

"0xf22d82cfcf4402990a0bef3abefd1e58217ff3a86c548d30f1495fd529460d76"

​

1. Paste your session key into the aura: SpConsensusAuraSr25519AppSr25519Public field
2. Paste 0x00 into the field proof: Bytes
3. Click Submit Transaction
   After using setKeys extrinsic, you can connect back to the public endpoint.

​

1. Toggle the switch include option and select your validator address in the AccountId32 field.
2. Click the + button.
3. Confirm that your key is displayed.
