PGP Key: illegal base64

[João Gabriel]

Hi, 

I'm trying to create a user and get the password/secret key.

I generated a pgp key with 

$ gpg --gen-key

and after exported it with 

$ gpg --export "Keyid" |base 64.

in my config file I put this way:

variable "pgp_key" {
  default = <<EOF
  "mQENBFpNHDsBCACrb05qhdGiMiACI/r4ozox9cG/plgQ4AjKhPoJpFv4Vz0QleNNslEULweXSNqc

# (This key is for test purpose)

resource "aws_iam_user_login_profile" "main" {
  user    = "${aws_iam_user.main.name}"
  pgp_key = "${var.pgp_key}"
}

when I ran terraform apply I got this error:

* aws_iam_user_login_profile.main: 1 error(s) occurred:
* aws_iam_user_login_profile.main: Error encrypting Password: Error decoding given PGP key: illegal base64 data at input byte 0

It has other way to generate and encode a gpg key to use with terraform?

Thanks!

You need to remove the quote marks at the beginning and end.

Thank you David, was a big help.

After I removed the quotes mark I got the same error, but I can noticed in my plan the "\t" in front of the pgp key:
