In order to avoid leaking bridge fingerprint and IP address information,
this is obfuscated by the Onionoo service that Atlas uses to provide the
relay and bridge data. In order to search for data about your bridge, you
will need to search for the SHA1 hash of your bridge's identity
fingerprint, not just the plain fingerprint.
On Linux and other Unix-like platforms, your fingerprint can often be
found in {{{/var/lib/tor/fingerprint}}}. On some platforms it may be in a
different location, but can also be found in your Tor log files.
If you're using a Linux or Unix-like system and your fingerprint is found
in {{{/var/lib/tor/fingerprint}}}, you can use the following command to
generate the SHA1 hash to search in Atlas:
{{{
# cat /var/lib/tor/fingerprint | sha1sum
}}}
or if you have extracted the fingerprint from your log files:
{{{
# echo -n "EXTRACTEDFINGERPRINT" | sha1sum
}}}

This is some draft text that I'm planning to integrate into the new help
page coming out of #6787.
