Names are not required to be unique which makes this a challenging problem

Using the approach below

Droplet config

ssh_keys = ["${digitalocean_ssh_key.april.fingerprint}",
              "${digitalocean_ssh_key.pete.fingerprint}",
              "${digitalocean_ssh_key.garfield.fingerprint}"]

Referencing 3 ssh key resource definitions

works great on 0.7.0 maybe this ticket is solved but just wasn't closed?

Maybe it should be possible to reference people by${digitalocean_ssh_key.april.name} ?

Quick update here: We've landed a new digitalocean_ssh_key data source. This allows for looking up an existing SSH key by name which you can then use with a Droplet resource. This requires that you've used unique names for your keys.

For example:

data "digitalocean_ssh_key" "example" {
  name = "example"
}

resource "digitalocean_droplet" "web" {
  image    = "ubuntu-18-04-x64"
  name     = "web-1"
  region   = "nyc1"
  size     = "512mb"
  ssh_keys = ["${data.digitalocean_ssh_key.example.fingerprint}"]
}
