How do I add a second SSH key to droplet?
New to Digital Ocean. I created a new droplet. Added an SSH key which we can’t use (laptop broke). I want to add a second SSH key for desktop machine. How can I do this via the control panel interface?

if you can ssh in to your droplet you could just:
nano ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
and paste your key in. Save (ctrl X and then y )
that’s it!
Thank you for your reply! I can only get to the control panel. When I set up the droplet it appeared that I could either add an SSH key (which I did, I wish I hadn’t), or get a root password by email. So now I have a droplet with a single public SSH key in it that I can’t access because the laptop that has the private key is down. How can I get out of this Catch 22, other than kill the droplet and create another one?
OK, I figured out how to reset my password (I told you I was new to DO). I have the new password, but – don’t laugh – what is my username? I don’t remember setting up one. Is it my email address? I tried that, it didn’t work…
Figured it out. Go there: https://cloud.digitalocean.com/ssh_keys
