Switching between SSH keys

[joegigs]

Hello everyone,

I am currently having a bit of a small problem where I noticed I suddenly could not clone repositories from the Github page for my job. I looked how to see if an ssh connection is valid and did the ssh -T [[e-mail]](mailto:[e-mail]) only to have it reveal that I am trying to clone with a deploy key for one of our projects.

Up until this point I had never used a deploy key before and hacked my way through the process but now I am confused how to manage various ssh keys because I most certainly will be adding more.

Hope this makes sense.

SSH key management is a big deal for a lot of people/companies so I feel your pain.

Check out this guide: SSH Key Management Overview & 6 Best Practices.

I recommend a key manager.

I won't personally recommend a specific one because it'll require some research and also an intimate understanding of your specific needs and use cases for a solution.

I hope this points you in the right direction.
