= Exporting a GPG Key Using the Command Line
Use the following command to send your key to a public keyserver:
----
gpg --send-key KEYNAME
----
For `KEYNAME`, substitute the key ID or fingerprint of your primary keypair.
This will send your key to the gnupg default key server. If you prefer another one use:
----
gpg --keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu --send-key KEYNAME
----
Replacing `pgp.mit.edu` with your server of choice.
Now see <<safeguarding-your-secret-key>>.
