How to install a SSH key?

Oleg December 16, 2022

I can't find a way to insert the ssh key. You can generate it (preferences/accounts/edit/generate key), but you can’t use an already working key. We are talking about interacting with the GitHub of course.

I did not find another solution other than directly changing the contents of the files by inserting an existing key. But as it turned out, besides this, there was a problem in the settings of the token on the github.

Let me try to help, if you allow me to understand your question better. If you already have a key on your computer, you can retrieve that key with the command (assuming your operating system is Linux): cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

 

You just need to put the generated information and go to Personal settings (top right icon) SSK Keys (left options) and Add Key, put a label (like my ssh key) and paste all the information in Key and click Add key.

 

If your key is a valid key, it will be accepted. If you are talking about another SSH Key, could you explain your question better, please?

Thanks a lot for your reply and trying to help.
In my Sourcetree there are no such settings, that's the point.

But I just changed the content of the generated Sourcetree files when generating the key.

Oh, I think I get it here, you don't have that image option in your Bitbucket? Are you in the Bitbucket space? Or in your repository?
