Adding a new SSH key to your GitHub account

To configure your account on your GitHub Enterprise Server instance to use your new (or existing) SSH key, you'll also need to add the key to your account.

About addition of SSH keys to your account

You can access and write data in repositories on your GitHub Enterprise Server instance using SSH (Secure Shell Protocol). When you connect via SSH, you authenticate using a private key file on your local machine. For more information, see "About SSH."

After you generate an SSH key pair, you must add the public key to your GitHub Enterprise Server instance to enable SSH access for your account.

  1. Check for existing SSH keys. For more information, see "Checking for existing SSH keys."
  2. Generate a new SSH key and add it to your machine's SSH agent. For more information, see "Generating a new SSH key and adding it to the ssh-agent."
