One week ago, I had a production and staging server up and running and with Forest Admin installed.

Sadly, my production server has been destroyed. So I re-installed server last week and now everything is working well in my server.

How can I do the config in Forest admin so that production interface connect back to it’s server  
FOREST ADMIN PRODUCTION → Production server

It seems i need to re-create Authentification Secret (AUTH\_SECRET) and Environnement secret (ENV\_SECRET).

How could I do that ?.

Hello @Florent,

It is possible to retrieve your secret key without having the server started:

- Launch Forest Admin
- Click on your project
- Change the URL in your browser to point to `https://app.forestadmin.com/[your project]/settings/general`
- Click on “environments”
- Click on the environment you want to retrieve the secret for
- It should be displayed

Does it work for you?
