Gitpod Introduces SSH Key Upload Feature

Gitpod now allows users to upload their own public SSH keys for workspace access, enhancing security and convenience.

The new feature eliminates the need to frequently retrieve SSH commands from the dashboard, simplifying reconnection to workspaces.

Uses of the SSH key upload include static connection strings, desktop client access, and automated port-forwarding.

Future SSH enhancements in Gitpod include easier SSH credential access, third-party key management integration, and improved desktop editing experiences.

The update aims to provide more stable, performant, and secure connections and to support new workflows and features around the SSH protocol.
