Replace 'username' with your username on Narval. The 'narval' above is just a name given to this "host". You can put here any name you like that does not already exist in your ~/.ssh/config.

Again, for more information have a look at their wiki: Automation in the context of multifactor authentication under "Using the right key".
Create host to simplify commands
You can create a "host" which includes the name of your private SSH key to avoid having to put it in every command. For example, add the following lines to your ~/.ssh/config file, so they get picked up by any ssh client invocation:
| Volet |
|---|
| Host narr Hostname robot.narval.alliancecan.ca User username Identityfile full_name_of_your_private_key Identitiesonly yes Requesttty no |
The 'narr' above is just a name given to this "host". You can put here any name you like that does not already exist in your ~/.ssh/config. I chose 'narr' for NARval Robot.
Replace 'username' with your username on Narval and 'full_name_of_your_private_key ' with the name and directory of your private SSH key, for example: ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_transfer
Once you added the above to your ~/.ssh/confi your command to transfer data from Narval would look like this:

| rsync narr:source destination |
