12. Go to **ESI Keys** tab, click **Add**
13. Click the **“Login with EVE Online”** , this will open a website (SSO) where you will have to login with your account details.
14. Once you’ve logged in you should get to the **Authentication** page and here you just scroll down and click **Authorize** - Repeat this to get all your account’s characters into EVEmon.
