[SOLVED] Registering ssh keys for direct ssh access

Product support balenaOS

according to balena’s ssh doc, in order to have direct ssh access to a device running a production image, you need to add the client’s public key to config.json in the boot partition. However, my config.json looks like what this doc describes instead.
Am I missing something? Are there 2 config.json in different directories?

I have a RPi4 running balenaOS 2.51.1+rev1

Hello @Kenajcrap welcome to our forums!

There’s only one config.json, you just need to add the keys following this structure.

Cheers,

Thank you @ntzovanis, this worked perfectly, I guess what threw me off was that none of the fields in the doc pages I linked to were the same, making it seem like they were different structures.

Solved!
