I'm trying to add my first SSH key to my profile, but whenever I paste it, I get:
The key is of the form:
I stripped off the host name, but whether or not I leave it in doesn't matter:
There are no newlines in the key and I haven't added any before, so it's not like it's a duplicate.

This version of GitHub Enterprise will be discontinued on This version of GitHub Enterprise was discontinued on 2020-01-22. No patch releases will be made, even for critical security issues. For better performance, improved security, and new features, upgrade to the latest version of GitHub Enterprise.For help with the upgrade, contact GitHub Enterprise support.
After you've checked for existing SSH keys, you can generate a new SSH key to use for authentication, then add it to the ssh-agent.
Fusionauth generate user api key. Will it support the openid discovery with jwksuri as well?Yes, the URL will be /.well-known/jwks.json and it will also be returned in the OpenID Configuration response when accessing /.well-known/openid-configuration in the jwksuri property.I do not believe the JWKS specification supports HMAC keys, so in this scenario you'll need to use RSA or Elliptic algorithms.Regarding the clientsecret and idtoken validation.Thank you for the clarification, it looks like you are correct. Hi @GarogatRe: JWKSNice.
If you don't already have an SSH key, you must generate a new SSH key. If you're unsure whether you already have an SSH key, check for existing keys.
If you don't want to reenter your passphrase every time you use your SSH key, you can add your key to the SSH agent, which manages your SSH keys and remembers your passphrase.
Open TerminalTerminalGit Bash.
Paste the text below, substituting in your GitHub Enterprise email address.
This creates a new ssh key, using the provided email as a label.
When you're prompted to 'Enter a file in which to save the key,' press Enter. This accepts the default file location.
At the prompt, type a secure passphrase. For more information, see 'Working with SSH key passphrases'.
Before adding a new SSH key to the ssh-agent to manage your keys, you should have checked for existing SSH keys and generated a new SSH key. When adding your SSH key to the agent, use the default macOS ssh-add
command, and not an application installed by macports, homebrew, or some other external source.
Start the ssh-agent in the background.
If you're using macOS Sierra 10.12.2 or later, you will need to modify your ~/.ssh/config
file to automatically load keys into the ssh-agent and store passphrases in your keychain.
Add your SSH private key to the ssh-agent and store your passphrase in the keychain. If you created your key with a different name, or if you are adding an existing key that has a different name, replace id_rsa in the command with the name of your private key file.
Note: The -K
option is Apple's standard version of ssh-add
, which stores the passphrase in your keychain for you when you add an ssh key to the ssh-agent.
If you don't have Apple's standard version installed, you may receive an error. For more information on resolving this error, see 'Error: ssh-add: illegal option -- K.'
Add the SSH key to your GitHub account.
If you have GitHub Desktop installed, you can use it to clone repositories and not deal with SSH keys. It also comes with the Git Bash tool, which is the preferred way of running git
commands on Windows.
Ensure the ssh-agent is running:
If you are using another terminal prompt, such as Git for Windows, you can use the 'Auto-launching the ssh-agent' instructions in 'Working with SSH key passphrases', or start it manually:
Add your SSH private key to the ssh-agent. If you created your key with a different name, or if you are adding an existing key that has a different name, replace id_rsa in the command with the name of your private key file.
Add the SSH key to your GitHub account.
Start the ssh-agent in the background.
Add your SSH private key to the ssh-agent. If you created your key with a different name, or if you are adding an existing key that has a different name, replace id_rsa in the command with the name of your private key file.
Add the SSH key to your GitHub account.
