Issue Description

When I run my fastlane command on my local computer it works but it won't in GitHub.
Both have the same version number: 2.181.0

I tried to put the content of APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_KEY in various ways:

the original content of .p8 file
the original content of .p8 file base64 encoded
the original content of .p8 file base64 encoded into a single line
removing linefeeds from the original content of .p8 file
removing linefeeds from the original content of .p8 file base64 encoded
removing linefeeds from the original content of .p8 file base64 encoded into a single line
changing linefeeds to \n in the original content of .p8 file
changing linefeeds to \n in the original content of .p8 file base64 encoded
changing linefeeds to \n in the original content of .p8 file base64 encoded into a single line

Where I encoded the content I also set APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_IS_KEY_CONTENT_BASE64 to true.
To create a single line base64 encoded string I used the following command:
cat AuthKey_XXXXXXXXX.p8 | openssl base64 -A

Command executed

I run the following command: fastlane ios testflight_release

I have a Fastfile with a lane containing the following actions:

app_store_connect_api_key()
match
gym
pilot

The secret parameters are set via environment variables such as:

MATCH_PASSWORD
MATCH_KEYCHAIN_NAME
MATCH_KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD
APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_ISSUER_ID
APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_KEY_ID
APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_KEY
MATCH_GIT_BASIC_AUTHORIZATION

The following parameters are also set via env variables:

LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"
MATCH_READONLY="true"
APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_IS_KEY_CONTENT_BASE64="true"
APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_DURATION="1200"
APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_IN_HOUSE="false"
SSH_AUTH_SOCK="/tmp/ssh_agent.sock"
PILOT_SKIP_WAITING_FOR_BUILD_PROCESSING="true"

The GiHub Action looks like this:

Hey m8,
try to use the json file described in Fastlane Docs - App Store Connect Api > Using Fastlane API key json file.
I've just tried it and it works!

Still drives me nuts I cannot do this by simply setting the environment variables!

markemer · 2021-05-20T13:58:11Z

I refuse to check my private key into a git repo in any form, is there another workaround anyone has found? Or can the ENV variable be the JSON file?

Seemed to work with KEY_CONTENT as a Github Secret.

P.S. - This using the latest Firebase.

As a data point, I was getting this exact same error, but it simply ended up being a typo in how I was threading through my secrets through from the repo secrets -> action workflow -> env vars. This is now working perfectly for me, loading the raw contents of my .p8 file via a GitHub Secret.

Here's the relevant bits of my setup:

Fastfile

app_store_connect_api_key(
  key_id: ENV["APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_ID"],
  issuer_id: ENV["APP_STORE_CONNECT_ISSUER_ID"],
  key_content: ENV["APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY"]
)

Workflow YAML file:

      - name: Build
        shell: bash
        run: bundle exec fastlane beta
        env:
          APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_ID: ${{ secrets.APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_ID }}
          APP_STORE_CONNECT_ISSUER_ID: ${{ secrets.APP_STORE_CONNECT_ISSUER_ID }}
          APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY: ${{ secrets.APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY }}
          ...

APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY is just the plaintext raw form of the .p8 file:

-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
[long string of characters]
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----

This works great for me, despite not escaping newlines like @markemer is.

I am also having the exact same problem. At one point I managed to fix it on one computer by encoding the p8 key and using the encoded key. But now I am trying to run using TestFlight and a remote cmdline call to the same computer and the problem is back :( Just as rocSank) describes I have tried all the above avenues. So frustrating. I wish the error was more informative. What is a curve anyways?

Another option could be to base64 encode your key, set it as a secret on Github, and then decode it into a file.
From there, you can use it in your Fastlane. You can also add a teardown action that removes all the keys you have generated in the CI machine for added safety.

Example:

- name: Setup Secret  
  env:
    APP_STORE_KEY: ${{ secrets.APP_STORE_KEY }}
  run: |
    echo "$APP_STORE_KEY" | base64 -d > appstorekey.p12

I've got the same issue :
/Users/ci/.gem/gems/fastlane-2.194.0/spaceship/lib/spaceship/connect_api/token.rb:71:in `initialize': invalid curve name (OpenSSL::PKey::ECError)

Tried with bundle, without, using je json file, the app_store_connect_api_key, both with escaping, double escaping and without, base64... Could not find a way to get it working (was ok and probably broke since an apple auto-update_
