infisical ssh - Infisical

Description

Infisical SSH lets you issue SSH credentials to clients to provide short-lived, secure SSH access to infrastructure.

This command enables you to obtain SSH credentials used to access a remote host. We recommend using the connect sub-command which handles the full workflow of issuing credentials and establishing an SSH connection in one step.

Sub-commands
