In the Workbench top navigation menu, look for a dropdown menu with your email address in upper right corner. It will have an icon such as <span class="badge badge-alert">1</span> (the number indicates there are new notifications). Click on this icon and a dropdown menu should appear with a message asking you to add your public key. Paste your public key into the text area provided and click on the check button to submit the key. You are now ready to "log into an Arvados VM":#login.

-To see a list of virtual machines that you have access to and determine the name and login information, click on Compute %(rarr)→% Virtual machines. Once on the *Virtual machines* page, The *hostname* columns lists the name of each available VM. The *logins* column will have a value in the form of @["you"]@. Your login name is the text inside the quotes. In this guide the hostname will be _shell_ and the login will be _you_. Replace these with your hostname and login name as appropriate.
