This hash is used as an index to the file, in a similar way to the address, or URL, or a standard website. The CHK key is generated automatically, so it won't look as user-friendly as a domain name. For user-friendly keys, have a look at [[FreenetSSKPages SSK pages]].

These are created by making a **hash** of the file. This is like a fingerprint of the file: it is generally a lot smaller than the file itself. It should not be possible for two different files to have the same CHK; a CHK uniquely identifies a file (assuming that SHA-256 is not broken!).

All files within Freenet are identified and requested by a **key**, in a similar way that normal websites are identified by a domain name. You don't really need to know the technical details to use Freenet; tools such as [[FreenetJsite jSite]] will sort it all out for you.
**Content Hash Keys** are for files that aren't going to change. For example: mp3 files. They look something like this:
""CHK@SVbD9~HM5nzf3AX4yFCBc-A4dhNUF5DPJZLL5NX5Brs,bA7qLNJR7IXRKn6uS5PAySjIM6azPFvK~18kSi6bbNQ,AAEA--8""

This example will add a small text file to Freenet using the **Content Hash Key** to identify it. We will use the basic [[FreenetConsole telnet interface]] to Freenet for illustrative purposes but you can use a more featured site creator like [[FreenetJsite jSite]].
