SSH Key Integration is used to connect JFrog Pipelines to VMs that allow SSH based auth. This is typically used to SSH in and then run commands on the machine. Tools like Terraform and Ansible use this to execute scripts on a machine.

Creating an SSH Key Integration

You can add this integration by following steps on the Managing Pipelines Integrations page.

Here is the information you need to create this integration:

  • Name -- choose a friendly name for the integration
