Importing a Config

Mobile Devices

For mobile devices, we recommend scanning the QR code provided when you create a config. This will automatically import the config into the WireGuard app for you. You can then use the toggle to enable or disable the connection.

Windows & Mac

For Windows and Mac, you first want to download the file provided when you create your config. Then, you can import the config by clicking the "Import tunnel(s) from file" button and selecting the config file. The config file will have a .conf extension. After importing, you can click on your config and press the "Activate" button. To disconnect, you can press the "Deactivate" button.

Linux

For Linux, there are a few different ways you can import a config. We recommend using the the wq-quick tool unless you are an experienced user. To start, as a sudoer, you will want to move your downloaded config file to the /etc/wireguard/ directory. Then, you should set the proper permissions with sudo chown root:root -R /etc/wireguard && sudo chmod 600 -R /etc/wireguard. Finally, you can use sudo wg-quick up [config-name] to start the connection.
