Question SSH key code versus server key code

Hi,

When logging in using SSH access (to a remotely
hosted account), I received a prompt to accept
a server's key fingerprint. Wrote that string
of code down for comparision.

Already emailed my host for their listing of the
string of code for the server's key fingerprint
(for comparison, verification and security).
Tech rep responds:
1. 'just click Accept';
2. later, 'don't know why you want to know'.

I've tried the addresses of
https:// ip number :2083/
https:// ip number :2096/
https:// ip number /~username/
but the certificate shows no code string
within any of the listings like the SSH
access prompt's code string.

I may simply be looking in the wrong places.
Where can we find the listing of the server
key fingerprint please?
