 +==== [[copyid]] Public key installation ====
 +
 +Use the ''/copyid'' switch to [[ui_puttygen#generating|install your public key in a server's ''authorized_keys'' file]]. Use ''/identity'' switch to specify the path to your key pair in PPK format or public key in ''authorized_keys'' format. Supported with SFTP protocol only.
 +
 +For example, to install public key from ''mykey.ppk'' key pair file, use:
 +
 +<code batch>
 +winscp.com /copyid /identity=mykey.ppk martin@example.com
 +</code>
 +
 +The functionality is a replacement for [[&man_ref(7,ssh-copy-id)|OpenSSH ''ssh-copy-id'' script]]. Contrary to the OpenSSH script, it does not require shell interpreter locally. Additionally, it uses SFTP protocol, so it does not rely on a shell access and shell commands on the server. For a compatibility with the script, the ''-i'' switch is understood as an alias to ''/identity''. So, for features supported by WinSCP, you can use the same arguments as for ''ssh-copy-id'', just prefixed with ''/copyid''.
