# singularity-keyserver-add(1)

Add a keyserver (root user only)

## NAME

apptainer-keyserver-add - Add a keyserver (root user only)

## SYNOPSIS

**apptainer keyserver add \[options\] \[remoteName\]**

## DESCRIPTION

The 'keyserver add' command lets the user specify an additional keyserver.\
   The --order specifies the order of the new keyserver relative to the\
   keyservers that have already been specified. Therefore, when specifying\
   '--order 1', the new keyserver will become the primary one. If no endpoint is\
   specified, the new keyserver will be associated with the default remote\
   endpoint.

## OPTIONS

**-h**, **--help**\[=false\]\
 	help for add

**-i**, **--insecure**\[=false\]\
 	allow insecure connection to keyserver

**-o**, **--order**=0\
 	define the keyserver order

## EXAMPLE

```
  $ apptainer keyserver add https://keys.example.com
  To add a keyserver to be used as the primary keyserver for the current
  endpoint:
  $ apptainer keyserver add --order 1 https://keys.example.com
```
