--- title: SSH Access --- import { TabItem, Tabs } from '@astrojs/starlight/components' You can connect to any of your sandboxes via SSH using token-based authentication. ## Creating an SSH Access Token To connect to a sandbox, you'll need to create an SSH access token first. This token provides secure, time-limited access to your sandbox. SSH access can be initialized from the dashboard by opening the sandbox’s options menu and selecting `Create SSH Access`. It can also be initialized programmatically using one of the SDKs listed below. ```python from daytona import Daytona daytona = Daytona() sandbox = daytona.get("sandbox-abc123") # Create SSH access token ssh_access = sandbox.create_ssh_access(expires_in_minutes=60) print(f"SSH Token: {ssh_access.token}") ``` ```typescript import { Daytona } from '@daytonaio/sdk' const daytona = new Daytona() const sandbox = await daytona.get('sandbox-abc123') // Create SSH access token const sshAccess = await sandbox.createSshAccess(60) console.log(`SSH Token: ${sshAccess.token}`) ``` ```ruby require 'daytona' daytona = Daytona::Daytona.new sandbox = daytona.get('sandbox-abc123') # Create SSH access token ssh_access = sandbox.create_ssh_access(expires_in_minutes: 60) puts "SSH Token: #{ssh_access.token}" ``` ## Connection Command Once you have your token, connect using: ```bash ssh @ssh.app.daytona.io ``` ## Connecting with VSCode Connecting your local VSCode to a sandbox requires a few simple steps: 1. Make sure that the [Remote Explorer extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.remote-explorer) is installed in your VSCode. 2. Add a new SSH connection 3. When prompted for the SSH connection URL, paste your SSH command from above. Find out more about the extension [here](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh). ## Connecting with JetBrains IDEs Connecting your local JetBrains IDEs to a sandbox requires a few simple steps: 1. Download the [JetBrains Gateway](https://www.jetbrains.com/remote-development/gateway/) app to your local machine. 2. Add a new connection. 3. When prompted for the SSH connection URL, paste your SSH command from above. 4. Choose an IDE you want installed in your sandbox. ## Managing SSH Access ### Token Expiration SSH access tokens expire automatically for security: - **Default**: 60 minutes ### Revoking Access You can revoke SSH access tokens at any time: ```python # Revoke all SSH access for the sandbox sandbox.revoke_ssh_access() # Revoke specific SSH access for the sandbox sandbox.revoke_ssh_access(token="specific-token") ``` ```typescript // Revoke all SSH access for the sandbox await sandbox.revokeSshAccess() // Revoke specific SSH access for the sandbox await sandbox.revokeSshAccess('specific-token') ``` ```ruby # Revoke all SSH access for the sandbox sandbox.revoke_ssh_access # Revoke specific SSH access for the sandbox sandbox.revoke_ssh_access(token: 'specific-token') ```
