Where do I find my Virtual Canary Password?

How to locate your Virtual Canary password by accessing your Canary Console, adding a new Canary, selecting your virtual platform (VMware or Hyper-V), and copying the displayed password for login and configuration purposes.

You will require your Virtual Canary passwords to log in and make changes to your virtualised environment, where you deployed your Canary. This will only be needed when setting up a Canary with a static IP, doing a factory reset, troubleshooting or creating a logo-less Canary.

What about previously deployed Virtual Machines?

Virtual Machines that were previously deployed require a few extra steps to obtain their passwords. Sorry! We are fixing this to make it easier for you to know which password belongs to which VM Canary. If you need help, please reach out to our support team.
