SSH Key

setcopypublickey

You have the possibility to view, copy and deposit your public ssh key. An uploaded public key is required for starting machines. Read more about it here. If you don't know how to generate a ssh key, you can read the instructions on our quickstart page.

Alternatively you are also able to have a ECDSA key generated for you. Click on the Generate Key button and read and confirm the notification.

The public key part will be automatically set for you and you are able to download the private key file once.

If you do not save the private key generated for you, it will be irretrievably lost. We do not save the generated private keys for you. If you have cancelled or forgotten to download the key, you must repeat the process with a new key. Please note that you will have to change the permissions of the key file as written in the notification you just confirmed.

Supported formats

In case you upload a key yourself, please note that we currently only support the following formats: RSA and ECDSA (SHA2, NIST P256, P384 or P521). As mentioned above, regard the instructions to generate a supported key.
