Fetching the default administrator password

Allow a few seconds for your Stream instance to boot up. You can then fetch the administrator password that has been generated for your instance using the command :

$ kubectl exec $(kubectl get pods -n stream -l "app.kubernetes.io/name=stream" --sort-by={.status.podIP} -o jsonpath="{.items[0].metadata.name}") -n <namespace> -- /bin/sh -c "cat /stream/adminPassword"

The default administrator credentials are:

  • Login: administrator

  • Password: the one you got from the command above

Manually creating the initial user

In case the automatic bootstrap process was disabled, you may need to manually create an administrator user. Launch a MongoDB shell to access your database and run the following command to create the initial administrator:

db.security_accounts.insertOne({"identifier":"administrator","secret":"$6$96ZV/UmX1oMPUVA3$U5MejjbJ9S3jhqq1TDqhZMwVOcDX5BAWY3DL2nsxUHlpHj0LOfPuswy4nWjkMLify4FvKGKhEfADzljy7FGc8.","permissions":[{"value":"configuration:*"},{"value":"lifecycle:*"}],"roles":[], "type":"local"})

It is highly recommended to delete the adminPassword file from your machine once you saved it somewhere safe.
