SSH Server

Setting up an SSH server allows access to your Hass.io folders with any SSH client. To use this add-on, you must have a private/public key to log in. To generate them, follow the instructions for Windows and these for other platforms.

{
  "authorized_keys": [
    "ssh-rsa AKDJD3839...== my-key"
  ]
}

Configuration variables:

• authorized_keys (Required): Your public-keys for authorized keyfile. Every element will be a line inside that file.

This add-on is not compatible when you installed Hass.io via the generic Linux installer. If you’re coming from Rasbian or similar, use root rather than pi when connecting via ssh or else you will get this error. bash Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive)
