If you are sending data to TPA Stream's SFTP server,
you need to generate your own public / private keypair
for ssh. There are several mechanisms for generating a keypair.
On Linux / Mac systems, most find it easiest to
use the commandline tool, ssh-keygen
.
On
Windows, most people use
puttygen
to generate a keypair. We recommend creating a keypair
WITHOUT a passphrase.
Never share your private key with anyone outside your
organization, including TPA Stream, for any reason.
You can safely share your public key with anyone in the world,
or even publish it on the internet (like we do at TPA Stream).
