Heads up! On October 1, we introduced Gitpod Flex. You can swap between documentation by using the switcher in the left navigation bar.

Connecting an environment to Zed

Gitpod works with any remote and SSH compatible editor, including Zed.

Step 1 - Install the CLI and setup your SSH configuration

The easiest way to setup SSH configuration is by installing the Gitpod CLI.

Once installed, run gitpod env ssh-config to update your local SSH configuration.

To validate ensure the directory ~/.ssh/gitpod is created on your local machine.

Step 2 - Find the host for your environment

You can find the host name on your started environment details page.

The host format is: <environment-id>.gitpod.environment

For example: 01922350-2462-79da-8c80-770fe4275aa2.gitpod.environment

copying host id from app

Note: You do not need the ssh command when connecting to JetBrains.

Step 3 - Connect with your environment

In Zed open the remote projects dialogue with cmd-shift-p remote. - Add a connection. - Insert the SSH host from above.
