Hi@akhtar,

You can use aws_key_pair resource n terraform. It will help you to create a key. I have attached one example below.

variable "Enter_ur_key_name" {default="my-key1"}
resource "tls_private_key" "example" {
  algorithm = "RSA"
  rsa_bits  = 4096
}
resource "aws_key_pair" "generated_key" {
  key_name   = var.Enter_ur_key_name
  public_key = tls_private_key.example.public_key_openssh
}

Hope this will help.
