[SOLVED] Switching back to spark cloud - submitPublicKey got error: Permission Denied

Troubleshooting

Trying to switch back to spark cloud from my local cloud. I didn’t back up keys so tried using keys doctor but get Error - Permission Denied. I am logged into spark cloud and I can see my other spark core using spark list. Device id redacted.

Make sure your core is in DFU mode (blinking yellow), and that your computer is online.

Solved Had accidentally created a cloud account with spark cloud instead of my local cloud when messing about trying to setup local cloud. Anyways long story short logged in with those credentials and removed core so I could add to my proper account.
