How to access your Crafty instance
Crafty is a web-based application, which means you'll need a web browser to access and use it. This page provides useful tips and instructions on how to get up and running smoothly with Crafty.
Use HTTPS, not HTTP
Crafty makes use of HTTPS to protect your personal data. When accessing Crafty you must explicitly type https when entering Crafty’s address in your browser. i.e. https://127.0.0.1:8443
Crafty can be accessed via localhost
, 127.0.0.1
, and your machine’s IP address
,
but again, you must type https:// before the address.
Crafty's self-signed certificate
You may recieve a warning screen in your browser notifying "Your connection is not private", don't worry it is, it's just because crafty by default uses a self-signed cert, which your browser can't verify against the big certificate authorities.
Just click the dropdown and proceed anyway!
Logging in
Once you reach the Crafty webpage you will be greeted with a login screen.
The default credentials in default.json
are:
Username: admin
Password: crafty
We highly recommend changing this immediately after logging in.
