DigitalOcean Droplet Username

A DigitalOcean Droplet username is the unique identifier for a Droplet instance. It is a randomly generated 16-character string that you will need to provide to create your Droplet.

PRO TIP: – Do not give out your DigitalOcean droplet username to anyone.

– Your DigitalOcean droplet username is used to login to your droplet and manage your files.

– If someone has your DigitalOcean droplet username, they can login to your droplet and access your files.

The first character is a letter, the next 9 are numbers, and the last character is a letter again. For example, the username for a Droplet instance with the IP address 192.168.

1.100 would be droplet-a.
