I'm trying to figure out how to obtain a vault root token. I need this token for accessing and managing secrets in my vault, but I'm not sure about the steps to acquire it.

    This OTP can be supplied through the -otp flag during the token generation process.

    To initiate the process of generating a root token, specific requirements must be met.

    A base64-encoded one-time-password (OTP) is one of the acceptable methods.

    Another option is to use a Keybase username.

    If you do not have an OTP, you can use the -generate-otp flag to create a valid one.
