Sending your PGP public key to somebody else

If you need to share your public PGP key with someone outside Private.Ki (to receive encrypted messages from them), there are two convenient ways to do so: You can send your key as an email attachment, or you can download it to share it manually.

Just to be clear: You don't need to care about key exchange within Private.Ki. You can send encrypted messages to Private.Ki users without key exchange - we'll do that for you.

Sending your key as email attachment

In the composer window, click on the 3 dots menu at the bottom:

Click on Attach public key:

Then, send your email normally by clicking Send.

That's it - your PGP public key will be attached to the email as an .asc file, and the recipient can import it, in order to send encrypted messages to you.

Downloading your PGP public key

You can also easily download your PGP public key, in order to share it elsewhere, or as a backup.

Navigate to Settings:

Click on Key Management:

Click on Export Public Key:

Your key will be automatically downloaded. It will typically be in your browser's download folder now.
