Installation of a waves testnet node

You can understand the api_key as your password that ensures that only you can execute the endpoints. Therefore, "decide what api_key you require..." means that you have to choose a string as a password. It should be safe enough of course...

Hello @marc.jansen,
Thanks for your response.
Yes, that's what I figured. So I placed a long string I made up in the "message" box and generated de APIKey Hash.
But, now when I run the node I get the warning message:
"message": "Provided API key is not correct"
Why? What did I do wrong?
Thanks for your help.
