Thanks for the share Ferguson πŸ”’

For the added security and between devs, I would definitely look into this. But tbh, I even had to work with a client's dev who complained about using SSH keys... (extreme scenario lol) Depending of the person/client I'm in contact with, just asking for a Google API key can be a hassle so I wouldn't risk adding any level of complexity πŸ˜…

Google has a way to encrypt emails, so that might be a [less secure] way that can work for less technical people, or you could just send them the actual script commands to use for managing an SSH key, and decrypting a file with it, if they're not sure how.
