# How to manage SSH keys > See also: [SSH key](https://documentation.ubuntu.com/juju/2.9/reference/ssh-key.md#ssh-key) ## Add an SSH key To add a public `ssh` key to a model, use the `add-ssh-key` command followed by a string containing the entire key or an equivalent shell formula: ```text # Use the entire ssh key: juju add-ssh-key "ssh-rsa qYfS5LieM79HIOr535ret6xy AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQA6fgBAAABAQCygc6Rc9XgHdhQqTJ Wsoj+I3xGrOtk21xYtKijnhkGqItAHmrE5+VH6PY1rVIUXhpTg pSkJsHLmhE29OhIpt6yr8vQSOChqYfS5LieM79HIOJEgJEzIqC 52rCYXLvr/BVkd6yr4IoM1vpb/n6u9o8v1a0VUGfc/J6tQAcPR ExzjZUVsfjj8HdLtcFq4JLYC41miiJtHw4b3qYu7qm3vh4eCiK 1LqLncXnBCJfjj0pADXaL5OQ9dmD3aCbi8KFyOEs3UumPosgmh VCAfjjHObWHwNQ/ZU2KrX1/lv/+lBChx2tJliqQpyYMiA3nrtS jfqQgZfjVF5vz8LESQbGc6+vLcXZ9KQpuYDt joe@ubuntu" # Use an equivalent shell formula: juju add-ssh-key "$(cat ~/mykey.pub)" ``` > See more: [juju add-ssh-key](https://documentation.ubuntu.com/juju/2.9/reference/juju-cli/list-of-juju-cli-commands/add-ssh-key.md#command-juju-add-ssh-key) ## Import an SSH key To import a public SSH key from Launchpad / Github to a model, use the `import-ssh-key` command followed by `lp:` / `gh:` and the name of the user account. For example, the code below imports all the public keys associated with the Github user account ‘phamilton’: ```text juju import-ssh-key gh:phamilton ``` > See more: [juju import-ssh-key](https://documentation.ubuntu.com/juju/2.9/reference/juju-cli/list-of-juju-cli-commands/import-ssh-key.md#command-juju-import-ssh-key) ## View the available SSH keys To list the currently known SSH keys for the current model, use the `ssh-keys` command. ```text # List the keys known in the current model juju ssh-keys ``` If you want to get more details, or get this information for a different model, use the `--full` or the `--model / -m ` option. > See more: [juju ssh-keys](https://documentation.ubuntu.com/juju/2.9/reference/juju-cli/list-of-juju-cli-commands/ssh-keys.md#command-juju-ssh-keys) ## Remove an SSH key To remove an SSH key, use the `remove-ssh-key` command followed by the key / a space-separated list of keys. The keys may be specified by either their fingerprint or the text label associated with them. The example below illustrates both: ```text juju remove-ssh-key 45:7f:33:2c:10:4e:6c:14:e3:a1:a4:c8:b2:e1:34:b4 bob@ubuntu ``` > See more: [juju remove-ssh-key](https://documentation.ubuntu.com/juju/2.9/reference/juju-cli/list-of-juju-cli-commands/remove-ssh-key.md#command-juju-remove-ssh-key)
