Credentials are loaded by the PW-Sat2 Ground Station Application as a json file and allow you to upload received frames to cloud-based service.

Obtaining and loading credentials

Obtaining credentials

To obtain credentials go to our cloud service - but first you have to create an account (sign up) and then (sign in) to access the page. Download json file with your credentials.

Run the application and load credentials

Important information on re-generating credentials

Each time you re-generate (download) credentials from webpage you have to load them again in application - just push "Load credentials from file" and select new file. Credentials are loaded into application immediately - no restart is needed.
