Does Snaplogic support Ed25519 SSH keys?

I’m guessing that it doesn’t because when I try to use one in that format I get an “Invalid private key” error, but it would be helpful if someone could confirm that. Here’s the full error:

Invalid private key
Resolution: Please ensure private key is in OpenSSH key file format.
Reason: Missing private key header/footer might be a possible reason

and here’s my key:

-----BEGIN OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----
blah etc.
-----END OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----

The key is valid because it does work in other clients like Filezilla.

    So in case anyone else is wondering on this point - it doesn’t look as if they are supported. I had to create a new public / private pair in RSA format and get the public key registered on the SFTP server. The private key then worked in Snaplogic.
