Deleted or missing SSH keys

{% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} automatically deletes inactive SSH keys to help keep accounts safe, such as after someone leaves a job or loses a computer.

You can check if you haven't used an SSH key in a year by reviewing your account's security log. For more information, see AUTOTITLE.

After your inactive SSH key is deleted, you must generate a new SSH key and associate it with your account. For more information, see AUTOTITLE and AUTOTITLE.
