Create Key

Use the Create Key dialog to create a new key. How?

Note:

To generate a private RSA key of PEM format, which is used to connect to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure when the OCI Storage Cloud Service type is selected as a source or target, you cannot use the Oracle Managed File Transfer console or the WSLT generateKeys command. Instead, you can use an external key generation application, such as ssh-keygen, or follow the steps in How to Generate an API Signing Key in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure documentation. Then, you can import the RSA key of PEM format.
