# Adding a dev.to proof
Let's add a decentralized dev.to proof to your OpenPGP keys.
[[toc]]
## Post a dev.to proof message
Log in to [dev.to](https://dev.to) and create a new post with the following text (make sure to replace FINGERPRINT and USERNAME):
```
This is an OpenPGP proof that connects [my OpenPGP key](https://keyoxide.org/FINGERPRINT) to [this dev.to account](https://dev.to/USERNAME). For details check out https://keyoxide.org/guides/openpgp-proofs
[Verifying my OpenPGP key: openpgp4fpr:FINGERPRINT]
```
After posting, copy the link to the post.
## 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 post copied above):
`proof@metacode.biz=https://dev.to/USERNAME/POST_TITLE`
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 dev.to account.
