Do you need to generate new keys so you can connect to your account via SSH or some other application like gitlab?
There are 2 ways:
The first method in this article is for generating the key pairs in cpanel.
The second way is generating them on local computer (PC) and importing them into cpanel. The second method using PuttyGen can be found here>
Step 1: Login to your cPanel account.
Step 2: Once logged into your cPanel account, find the 'SSH Access' icon:
Step 3: Now click on Manage SSH Keys
Step 4: If you are using cPanel to generate the keys, (1st method discussed here) Use the Generate a New Key button. If you are using the 2nd method where either you have already generated a keypair and need to import them see this link.
We recommend using the password generator for strong random passwords.
Step 5: Once you generate they keys, you still have to authorize it! Click on Manage to the right.
Step 6: On the next page, click on Authorize. That's it!
