## Permission Summary

Upload SSH keys

## Required Permissions

To add a permission to a custom role, you must also add its required permissions.

For example, to add a non-read permission for a resource type, you must also add the read permission for that resource type.

The following permissions are required for `ssh_key:create`:

| Permission | Description |
|---|---|
| [`ssh_key:read`](../../ssh_key/read) | View SSH keys |

## Associated Permissions

Associated permissions are not required, but they support full functionality of the permission they’re associated with.

For example, to create a Droplet, you need `droplet:create`. To tag a Droplet during creation, you additionally need `tag:create`, so `tag:create` is listed as an associated permission for `droplet:create`.

The following permissions are associated with `ssh_key:create`:

| Permission | Description |
|---|---|
| [`droplet:create`](../../droplet/create) | Create Droplets |
| [`droplet:read`](../../droplet/read) | View Droplets |
