# How to create your SSH Keys
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You need to connect your computer to your GitLab account through SSH Keys. They are unique for every computer that you link your GitLab account with.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Generate your SSH Key
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Create an account on GitLab. Sign up and check your email for your confirmation link
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* After you confirm, go to [gitlab.com](https://about.gitlab.com/) and sign in to your account
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Add your SSH Key
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* At the top right corner, click on "profile settings"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* On the left side menu click on "SSH Keys"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Then click on the green button "Add SSH Key"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* There, you should paste the SSH Key that your commandline will generate for you. Below you'll find the steps to generate it
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## To generate an SSH Key on your commandline
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Go to your [commandline](start_using_git.md) and follow the [instructions](https://gitlab.com/help/ssh/README) to generate it
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Copy the SSH Key that your commandline created and paste it on the "Key" box on the GitLab page. The title will be added automatically
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Now, you'll be able to use Git over SSH, instead of Git over HTTP.
