If you did not specify an SSH key when deploying your server, you must first retrieve the login credentials. This can be achieved in multiple ways, either via the Console, using the API, or via the ICS CLI.

The login credentials can be found on the Server Information tab of the server. Navigate to: Service -> Bare Metal Servers
Click the FQDN/Hostname of the server you wish to access. Note the: Username, Password and Public IP address

curl --request GET \
  --url https://api.ingenuitycloudservices.com/rest-api/servers \

  --header 'X-Api-Token: API_KEY'

Get server details by ID

curl --request GET \
  --url https://api.ingenuitycloudservices.com/rest-api/servers/{id} \

Using the credentials from above, connect to your server based on it’s operating system:
