Create Akash Account and Certificate

Overview

The steps in this section should be followed if you have a pre-existing Akash account that needs to be imported.\

If you do not have an Akash account and need to create one, follow the steps in this guide and then proceed with the step below.

Import Pre-Existing Account

  • Follow instructions create a new key/account named myWallet
  • You will be prompted to enter the account mnemonic for import
provider-services keys add myWallet --recover

Confirm Key Creation in Local Key Chain

provider-services keys list

Example/Expected Output

provider-services keys list

- name: myWallet
  type: local
  address: akash1f53f<REDACTED>fud7
  pubkey: '{"@type":"/cosmos.crypto.secp256k1.PubKey","key":"A21Z<REDACTED>WObs"}'
  mnemonic: ""

Create/Export Key Environment Variable

export AKASH_KEY_NAME=myWallet

Create your Certificate

In this step we will create a local certificate and then store the certification on the block chain

  • 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.

Generate Cert

  • 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

Publish Cert to the Blockchain

provider-services tx cert publish client --from $AKASH_KEY_NAME --gas-prices="0.025uakt" --gas="auto" --gas-adjustment=1.15
