Connect to Terminal
Run litd either in integrated mode or on a separate machine.
If
litd is already running on your machine, follow this guide. For installation instructions, follow our guide. If you are running a bundle such as Umbrel or Start9, Terminal may already be installed on your machine.Once you have navigated to your local installation of Terminal, click on "Connect to Terminal" to be taken directly to Terminal on the web. Alternatively you may scan the QR code with a smart phone or tablet to open a new session on another device.
You can inspect and revoke all existing sessions under "Lightning Node Connect."

litd via the browser or prefer to keep port 8443 closed, you may generate a new pairing phrase with litcli.litcli --lndtlscertpath ~/.lit/tls.cert sessions add --label="default" --type=adminYou will be asked for your 10-word pairing phrase. Enter it and confirm.
