Hi @creio – this uses our old school password based system. You’ll need to create an account on Heroku and use the fission add-on Interplanetary Fission (IPFS) - Add-ons - Heroku Elements – that will create a password for you to use with this.

We’re going to get around to re-implementing this soon with our modern key based system.
