Change key to use

Hi,

I have 3 keys stored in 1PW. In Git Tower I am trying to push some changes to a repo but when i do !Password is trying to use the wrong key and causing it to fail.

The key i want to use is eligible based on your docs etc.

How can I choose a different key to use?

SSH

    Hi rctneil and utopeadia, thanks for reaching out!

    I'm sorry that you're having trouble with SSH Key selection. Both Tower and GitHub Desktop support IdentityFile. Have either of you set up IdentityFile so that you can use it to https://developer.1password.com/docs/ssh/agent/advanced/#match-key-with-host you have in 1Password?

    A full list of SSH client compatibility is available here: https://developer.1password.com/docs/ssh/agent/compatibility/#openssh

    I look forward to hearing from you!

    -David

    The same issue, the polling-like solution 1p is using is simply not feasible now! Not being able to manually select is a completely unacceptable bug. I was forced to download Github Desktop, because I couldn't push anything without it!
