So to clarify, you've got an RSA key that looks like this:
And it's coming back like this:

Actually, '\n' are replaced by ' '. So It's coming like this: |
How are you submitting the key? I found that if I paste the key into the console I can reproduce the error, but if I submit it via boto3 or the cli it comes back as expected. |
I've forwarded this issue on to the service team |
I copy-pasted the key on the console... I'll submit it with the cli to avoid this problem. |
I'm having the same problem. Pasting into the console will end up stripping the newlines. I use the Ruby SDK from the CLI to get around it. But it would be great to have the console work as expected. |

We saved a private RSA key encrypted in the parameter store.
we use iam roles to retrieve it with the following instruction:
aws ssm get-parameters --with-decryption --names our-parameter-name
In the returned JSON, the parameters value does not have any \n in it!
When viewing key (decrypted) on the EC2 console, I can see the \n.
