# Download a Key as its raw file

`GET /apiops/projects/{projectName}/keys/{keyName}/export-file/`

## Request

- Base URL: `http://167.86.118.166:32080`
- URL: `http://167.86.118.166:32080/apiops/projects/{projectName}/keys/{keyName}/export-file/`
- Auth: none declared
- TypeScript: <https://skmtc.dev/apinizer/apis/apinizer-management-apis/docs/apiops/projects/:projectName/keys/:keyName/export-file/get.ts> (a function with typed inputs; its response is checked against the schema)

Downloads the key material itself — PEM for asymmetric keys, the stored value for symmetric ones — instead of an Apinizer export package. Without environmentName every environment's material is returned in one ZIP; with it, that single environment's file is returned directly.
