Adding an SSH Key

If you need to add an SSH key to your account, to make new Closed Captioning requests from your system, this article shows how.

Enable your account for SSH:

• If you have already enabled the account for a specific integration, then you should be able to see the SSH Keys page, under the Settings tab.

• If not, click Settings -> Account Features, and select Enable my account for AST-Link from the Account Feature to Add drop-down menu. Finally, click Request Account Feature. You will receive an email updating you about the feature status. Note that if you can't see AST-Link on the "Account Feature to Add" drop-down menu, then it's already enabled.

Adding an SSH Key:

• Once you're notified that the feature is enabled, open the Settings tab, and then the SSH Keys page. Click Add Another Key.

• Paste the public key into the New Public Key field. In the Note for Key field, enter a description such as Online Platform X and click Add Key.

• You will see that the status initially shows as Pending. It may take up to 5 minutes before the status changes to Ready.
