# `lxc config trust add`

Add new trusted client

## Synopsis

Description:
  Add new trusted client

  The following certificate types are supported:
  - client (default)
  - metrics

  If the certificate is omitted, a token will be generated and returned. A client
  providing a valid token will have its client certificate added to the trusted list
  and the consumed token will be invalidated. Similar to certificates, tokens can be
  restricted to one or more projects.




```
lxc config trust add [<remote>:] [<cert>] [flags]
