## Storing the keys in BitWarden
|

|
|
|
1. Create a folder called `ssh-agent` (can be overridden on the command line).
|
|
|
|
2. Add an new secure note to that folder.
|
|
|
|
3. Upload the private key as an attachment.
|
|
|
|
4. Add the custom field `private` (can be overridden on the command line), containing the file name of the private key attachment.
|
|
|
|
5. Repeat steps 2-4 for each subsequent key
