Add and manage SSH keys

Datalore allows you to add SSH keys as workspace resources so that you can connect to databases in isolated networks or access private Git repositories.

No one, even the workspace owner, can access the private key after it has been added.

Add an SSH key

  1. On the Home page, select the workspace where you want to add an SSH key.

  2. In the expanded list of workspace resources, select Other and switch to the SSH keys tab.

    'SSH keys' tab
  3. Click + New SSH key at the top right.

  4. In the dialog, enter a name in Display name.

  5. Do either of the following:

    • To use an existing SSH key: Paste the private key in Private key.

    • To generate a new SSH key: Click generate key. You can choose between creating a ED25519 and RSA key.

    Add SSH key dialog with a private key pasted in the Private key field
  6. Click Go to next step.

  7. Copy the public key.

  8. Click Save and close.

  9. Add the public key to the service you want to access, such as a Git service or a database server. You can select the SSH key you just added when configuring a connection to a database or a Git repository.
