Can I use ACM to export a private key?

Resolution

You can export AWS Private Certificate Authority issued private certificates that have encrypted private keys. You can also use ACM exportable public certificates.

If you require a certificate for an AWS service that ACM doesn't support, then you can export your public certificates from ACM. For ACM integrated services, you can use your certificates without exporting them. You can also import third-party issued TLS/SSL certificates to ACM for centralized management across all your AWS services.
