How to Retrieve BGP Credentials

Updated on 24 June, 2025

After BGP access is approved for your Vultr account, you can retrieve your credentials to configure your instances with BGP routing daemons. BGP credentials include your ASN, password, and configuration examples.

Note
You must have at least one active Compute instance to view your BGP credentials in the Customer Portal.

Follow this guide to retrieve your BGP credentials using the Vultr Customer Portal and API.

  • Vultr Customer Portal
  • Vultr API
  1. Navigate to Products and click Compute.
  2. Click your target instance (VPS or Bare Metal) to open its management page.
  3. Navigate to the BGP section on the instance management page to view your BGP credentials.

  • Send a GET request to the Get Account BGP Info endpoint to retrieve your account's BGP credentials.

    console 
    $ curl "https://api.vultr.com/v2/account/bgp" \
  -X GET \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${VULTR_API_KEY}"

    A successful response will include enabled, asn, and password fields.
