How to save and upload a Game in Lichess

Hi Ladies and Gentlemen,

can somebody please explain in easy words, what has to be done to save and upload a game after you have played and it is finished ?

I missing a "save-button" in lichess.

Thanks in advance.

Go to "FEN and PGN" at the bottom and download the game or copy the PGN.
Import a game from somewhere else I'm guessing?

Find something called a PGN and upload it via the TOOLS "Import a game" button

It looks like this:
[Event "Rated Rapid game"]
[Site "lichess.org/Z01xx8LK"]
[Date "2021.10.11"]
[White "Reini"]
[Black "IloveAnya"]
[Result "1-0"]
[UTCDate "2021.10.11"]
[UTCTime "16:37:09"]
[WhiteElo "1894"]
[BlackElo "2010"]
[WhiteRatingDiff "+8"]
[BlackRatingDiff "-31"]
[Variant "Standard"]
[TimeControl "600+0"]
[ECO "A09"]
[Opening "Réti Opening: Réti Accepted"]
[Termination "Normal"]
[Annotator "lichess.org"]

1. Nf3 d5 2. c4 dxc4 { A09 Réti Opening: Réti Accepted } 3. e4 b5 4. a4 c6 5. axb5 cxb5 6. Na3 Qb6 7. d4 e6 8. Be3 Bb4+ 9. Nd2 Qb7 10. Be2 a6 11. Bf3 Qd7 12. O-O Ne7 13. Ndxc4 bxc4 14.

Rxd8# { White wins by checkmate. } 1-0

Also if this game you want saved is played on lichess theres a FEN&PGN button at the bottom screen when you go into analysis.
@reini

Do you mean saving games that you played here in Lichess? No need to do anything, they are all saved automatically.
Just go to your profile page (click your user name) and there's a tab.

(If you meant uploading games from outside Lichess, see the other posts above).

I'm here to ask the same question: I'm on PC (chrome) and I cannot find the FEN/PGN button.. :O
Can anyone make a screenshot please?
