What should I assign to ECOMMERCE_GIT_IDENTITY?

I’m trying to set our git repository address in server-vars.yml file. though each value I set for ECOMMERCE_GIT_IDENTITY it ends up with the following error:

Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.

I have a private key with which I can clone the repository manually. but It seems to not work when I assign its content to ECOMMERCE_GIT_IDENTITY.
could you guide me, please?

@mahyard, if the SSH private key that you are trying to use has the access to the ecommerce repository that you want to use in your deployment, you can specify it like

ECOMMERCE_GIT_IDENTITY: |
  -----BEGIN OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----
  <private key contents>
  -----END OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----

Please note the usage of the Ansible block operator, |, and the indentation of all the lines of the value.

Thank you @guruprasad
I was absolutely disappointed about having an answer.
I’ll check it out and inform everyone about the result.

It worked for me as @guruprasad explained.
