Hello,

I've enabled a google managed SSL certificate for my custom domain linked to GAE. I'm able to download / retrieve the .crt file from the browser,

Is there a way for me to download the corresponding private key (.key) file? If yes, how can I achieve this?

Rob

Hello 

Currently it doesn’t seem possible to download the private key after it is created currently [1, 2]. Google Managed SSL certificate private keys are locked and can only be used within GCP and cannot be exported to be used by external services. There is however already a feature request [3] for this functionality and I would like to invite you star it (+) and keep an eye on that to know when this will be available in the future.
