Users can add, view, and delete SSH keys associated with their account.

## Add SSH Key To add a new SSH key, click **Add SSH Key**.

The system displays the **Add Public SSH Key** form. Select the project where the SSH key will be added from the **Choose Project** dropdown.

After selecting a project, paste the previously generated **public SSH key** into the **SSH Key Content** field.

Enter a name for the SSH key in the **Name** field, then click **Submit** to save the SSH key.

If the SSH key is created successfully, the system displays the notification **"SSH Key has been successfully created."** The newly created SSH key is then added to the **SSH Keys** list.

Click **Copy** to copy the **SSH Key Fingerprint** to your clipboard for verification or future reference.

## Delete SSH Key Click **Delete** in the **Action** column for the SSH key you want to remove.

The system displays a confirmation dialog. Enter the SSH key name in the confirmation field, then click **I understand the consequences, delete this Key** to permanently delete the SSH key.

If the SSH key is deleted successfully, the system displays the notification **"SSH Key has been successfully deleted."** The deleted SSH key is then removed from the **SSH Keys** list.
