Question

I ve got a question related to Snowflake and creating a credentials block I m attempting to use a private key and can t seem to get anything to work Question What is the right format for specifying the private key I ve tried a multiline string in the format of ``` BEGIN PRIVATE KEY END PRIVATE KEY ``` I ve tried taking the content between the blocks and making a long one line string and removing the ` n` characters Each time I get the same InvalidPemFormat error

To answer my own question multiline string is the way to go Be careful of extra newlines Good ```key = BEGIN PRIVATE KEY ``` Bad ```key = BEGIN PRIVATE KEY ```
