how to create users for login to web interface for airbyte install on docker on local server
u
To create users for login to the Airbyte web interface when installed on Docker on a local server, you can follow these steps: 1. First, ensure you have Airbyte installed and running using Docker. If you haven't done this yet, you can follow the instructions in the [Airbyte documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/deploying-airbyte/docker-compose#2-run-airbyte). 2. By default, Airbyte uses a basic authentication system with a predefined username and password. The default credentials are: - Username:
airbyte
- Password:
password
3. To change these default credentials or add new users, you need to modify the
.env
file in your Airbyte directory. Look for the following lines:
Copy code
BASIC_AUTH_USERNAME=airbyte    BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD=password
You can change these values to your desired username and password [source](https://airbyte.com/tutorials/how-to-use-airflow-and-airbyte-together). 4. If you want to set the credentials using the
abctl
command-line tool, you can use the following commands: To set the email (username):
Copy code
bash    abctl local credentials --email <mailto:your_email@example.com|your_email@example.com>
To set the password:
Copy code
bash    abctl local credentials --password your_new_password
[source](https://docs.airbyte.com/using-airbyte/getting-started/oss-quickstart#2-run-airbyte) 5. After making these changes, you'll need to restart your Airbyte instance for the changes to take effect. Please note that this basic authentication system is relatively simple and may not be suitable for production environments with multiple users. For more advanced user management, you might need to consider additional security measures or third-party authentication systems. Remember to keep your credentials secure and avoid using easily guessable passwords.
