Sorry for the long wait, I finally got to check your guide. Can you tell me where to get a Genesis DB authentication token? I fixed some other small things already and I'm happy to go on when you get back to me with the information about the token.

No problem and thank you for your time!
You define the GENESISDB_AUTH_TOKEN yourself. It can be a password string. It's the Bearer token you use to authenticate against the API once the database is running. FYI: In the meantime, there’s also a Community Edition of Genesis DB available (without any license key option).

I see. Would you mind adding something like

[moritz@stardust ~]$ pwgen 64 -1
ThisGeneratesAVeryLongPasswordString

to your guide then? Community Edition is a good choice since we don't want any guides you need to buy a license for. Can you adapt your guide accordingly and get back to me? Thanks ☺️
