Has anyone used GCP Certificate Manager Managed Certificates with Cloud CDN successfully? I suspect they’re only compatible with Media CDN.

hi All, I am trying to create GCP service account using terraform, i could create it, but i wanted to download the private_key JSON file aswell, i tried to create it using output resource in terraform, but it seems like the format is different, It is not like the same as the one which we creating in the web console. Can someone help me the procedure to get the key in JSON format same as its creating in manual way..
