hetzner.hcloud.hcloud_ssh_key set as "default"

[vmpr]

SUMMARY

I am managing my ssh keys with your ansible module but I did not find the option to set them as "default"

ISSUE TYPE

• Feature Idea

COMPONENT NAME

hetzner.hcloud.hcloud_ssh_key just integrate it here :)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

if you can set your ssh keys as default, they would be automatically deployed with new machines

like that would be cool:

      hetzner.hcloud.hcloud_ssh_key:
        api_token: "XXX"
        name: "vmpr"
        public_key: "XXX"
        state: present
        default: true

Thank you so much for your work! love it!

Dear @vmpr,

Thanks for the recommendation!

Default SSH keys are currently a console-only feature, and it’s not possible to create them via the API, as this isn’t supported yet.

@jooola - could we consider adding this feature? It’s been available in the console since May 2022, so having API support would help align both interfaces.

Having a default ssh key is indeed a missing feature.

While the public API does not support this feature, we could leverage the module defaults to configure ssh keys:

https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbook_guide/playbooks_module_defaults.html#module-defaults-groups

We are already using this technique to have another way to set the api_token globally: #396
