Hi,
I'm going through the new operators tutorial and at the add your server step, I was getting an error:
abra server add
INFO[0000] successfully created /root/.abra/servers/
INFO[0000] attempting to create client for
INFO[0000] cleaning up context for
INFO[0000] attempting to clean up server directory for
FATA[0000] ssh auth: permission denied for

I had been able to run ssh - which prompted for a password.

Does Abra require the use of SSH keys? I didn't see it mentioned in the tutorial or the linked troubleshooting note. However when I followed setup instructions for an ssh key (vaguely followed https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-configure-ssh-key-based-authentication-on-a-linux-server running ssh-keygen on my local machine and then copying them over to the remote machine) and tried running abra again, it worked.

So it seems to me that there's a requirement to set up ssh with keys (rather than a password) which isn't mentioned in the docs.

@Schumi23 oh yes, I think that's true! abra requires the use of SSH keys 🙈 Practically speaking, I think a few SSH requests are actually made in a full run of a abra app deploy so it would be constantly asking for a password if we supported it 🙃

Absolutely! The note about Abra using ssh made me think it might require the keys - and since it wasn't prompting me for a password at all. A quick note about the requirement and simple instructions (or link out to other resources) would help the documentation.
