# Adding a Gitea proof
Let's add a decentralized Gitea proof to your OpenPGP keys. This will also work on self-hosted instances.
[[toc]]
## Post a Gitea proof message
Log in to a gitea instance like [codeberg.org](https://codeberg.org) and click on **Create new repository**.
Set the repository name to **gitea_proof**.
Set the project description to (make sure to replace FINGERPRINT):
```
[Verifying my OpenPGP key: openpgp4fpr:FINGERPRINT]
```
Optional: edit the README.md to this:
```
This is an OpenPGP proof that connects my OpenPGP key to this Gitea account. For details check out https://keyoxide.org/guides/openpgp-proofs
```
After creating the project, copy the link to the project.
## Update the PGP key
First, edit the key (make sure to replace FINGERPRINT):
`gpg --edit-key FINGERPRINT`
Add a new notation:
`notation`
Enter the notation (make sure to update with the link to the project copied above):
`proof@metacode.biz=https://gitea.example.com/USERNAME/gitea_proof`
Save the key:
`save`
Upload the key to WKD or use the following command to upload the key to [keys.openpgp.org](https://keys.openpgp.org) (make sure to replace FINGERPRINT):
`gpg --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org --send-keys FINGERPRINT`
And you're done! Reload your profile page, it should now show a verified Gitea account.
