How to create a script
- Create the app from the link above
- Get the keys and store them safely
- Install the OVH python wrapper
- Create ovh.conf file and use the keys from your app
- Use the python example (or mine) to get the customerKey
- Update ovh.conf with the customKey
- Create your script and have fun! 🙂
