# How to create your SSH Keys
1. Go to your [command line](start-using-git.md) and follow the [instructions](../ssh/README.md) to generate your SSH key pair.
1. Log in to GitLab with your credentials.
1. In the upper-right corner, click your avatar and then click **Settings**.

1. Paste your **public** key that you generated in the first step in the 'Key'
box.

1. Optionally, give it a descriptive title so that you can recognize it in the
event you add multiple keys.

1. Finally, click **Add key** to add it to GitLab. You will be able to see
its fingerprint, title, and creation date.

>**Note:**
Once you add a key, you cannot edit it, only remove it. In case the paste
didn't work, you will have to remove the offending key and re-add it.

Congratulations! You are now ready to use Git over SSH, instead of Git over HTTP!
