| Checking for existing SSH keys | Before you generate an SSH key, you can check to see if you have any existing SSH keys. |

2. Enter ls -al ~/.ssh to see if existing SSH keys are present:
$ ls -al ~/.ssh
# Lists the files in your .ssh directory, if they exist
- Check the directory listing to see if you already have a public SSH key. By default, the filenames of the public keys are one of the following:
- id_rsa.pub
- id_ecdsa.pub
- id_ed25519.pub
If you don't have an existing public and private key pair, or don't wish to use any that are available to connect to {% data variables.product.product_name %}, then generate a new SSH key.
If you see an existing public and private key pair listed (for example id_rsa.pub and id_rsa) that you would like to use to connect to {% data variables.product.product_name %}, you can add your SSH key to the ssh-agent.

Tip: If you receive an error that ~/.ssh doesn't exist, don't worry! We'll create it when we generate a new SSH key.
