Hello everyone! I'm interested in generating a bootstrap key for my locally installed Typesense server. Could you please guide me on how to accomplish this? Thank you!

Hey, what exactly has been the challenge with this? You can use this guide to configure the bootstrap key: https://typesense.org/docs/0.24.1/api/api-keys.html#create-an-api-key, but generating the key can be as simple as using any key generator like https://www.lastpass.com/features/password-generator#generatorTool or any guid generator

No, I don't have any challenges, but I would like to confirm that the bootstrap key needs to be created manually. Once the bootstrap key is generated, it can be used to create admin keys or scoped API keys.

Correct, the bootstrap API key has to be manually generated

okay thanks!
