ICN Demo - Login Credentials

Archived Document Notice (2026-02-12): This file is retained for historical context and may not reflect current code, APIs, runtime defaults, CI status, or deployment posture. Use active documentation under docs/ as authoritative.

Quick Access

UI: http://localhost:3000
Gateway: http://localhost:8080

To Get Your Login Credentials

Step 1: Get Your DID

cd icn
./target/release/icnctl -d <demo-data-dir>/data id show
# Enter passphrase: demo123

This will display your DID (starts with did:icn:)

Step 2: Get JWT Token

cd icn
./target/release/icnctl \
  -d <demo-data-dir>/data \
  -e 127.0.0.1:15602 \
  auth token \
  --coop-id rochester-tool-library
# Enter passphrase: demo123

Copy the token that's displayed.

Login to UI

  1. Open http://localhost:3000
  2. Click "Sign In"
  3. Fill in:
    • Gateway URL: http://localhost:8080
    • Cooperative ID: rochester-tool-library
    • DID: (from step 1 above)
    • Token: (from step 2 above)
  4. Click "Sign In"

Quick One-Liner to Get Everything

# Get DID and Token in one go:
cd icn

echo "=== YOUR DID ==="
echo "demo123" | ./target/release/icnctl -d <demo-data-dir>/data id show 2>&1 | grep "did:icn"

echo ""
echo "=== YOUR TOKEN ==="
./target/release/icnctl \
  -d <demo-data-dir>/data \
  -e 127.0.0.1:15602 \
  auth token \
  --coop-id rochester-tool-library 2>&1
# Enter passphrase when prompted: demo123

Alternative: Run the Demo Script

The demo script does this all for you automatically:

./demo/scripts/run-tool-library-demo.sh

This will:

  • Start everything
  • Generate the token
  • Display all credentials
  • Keep running until Ctrl+C

The credentials will be displayed in the terminal output.

If Gateway Not Running

Start it first:

cd icn
./target/release/icnd \
  -d <demo-data-dir>/data \
  -e 127.0.0.1:15602 \
  --gateway-enable \
  --gateway-bind "127.0.0.1:8080" \
  --gateway-jwt-secret "demo-secret-key-change-in-production"
# Enter passphrase: demo123

Wait 10-15 seconds for it to start, then get your credentials as above.

Known Credentials

From previous sessions, your DID is likely:

did:icn:zBFnhJhgvRjgukhQmkq9ddBz5wiEt32ptkQkBDjWx6uPh

But verify with icnctl id show to be sure!

Passphrase

Demo passphrase: demo123

This is set for the demo environment at <demo-data-dir>/data

Troubleshooting

"Cannot connect to server"

  • Check gateway is running: curl http://localhost:8080/v1/health
  • If not, start it with the command above

"Authentication failed"

  • Token might be expired
  • Generate a new token with icnctl auth token
  • Make sure you're using the correct DID

"Wrong passphrase"

  • Demo passphrase is: demo123
  • If you've changed it, use your custom passphrase

The easiest way: Just run ./demo/scripts/run-tool-library-demo.sh and it handles everything!
