In my Apple developer account I have created a key for use with APNs across all my apps. On creation it allows me to download it once I have finished. After that the 'download' button is greyed-out and I can't download it again. Presumably this is by design.
Can anyone tell me why it doesn't allow a second download like you can for the certificates/profiles?

[1] To begin, visit the Apple Developer Member Center and log in with your credentials. [2] Click Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. [3] Click Keys then the “+” button in the top right corner to create a new key. [4] Enter a descriptive name for your APNS Auth Key, then select Apple Push Notification Service (APNs).
In the Apple Developer Center, visit the Auth Keys creation page, enter a key name, and choose Apple Push Notifications service (APNs). Click Continue and download the . p8 key file: Note: Keep track of the assigned Key ID for the next step.
Go the the Apple ID creation page. Complete the form and security questions. You'll receive a verification code by email. Enter the verification code to validate your account creation.
You can't re-download the IOS Push Notification Auth key. Only public key is retained by Apple and a private key which you retain and protect.
See documentation section Provider-to-APNs Connection Trust.
Token-based provider connection trust: A provider using the HTTP/2-based API can use JSON web tokens (JWT) to provide validation credentials for connection with APNs. In this scheme, you provision a public key to be retained by Apple, and a private key which you retain and protect.
You can see warning too when you create an Auth Key.
Download and Back Up After downloading your key, it cannot be re-downloaded as the server copy is removed. If you are not prepared to download your key at this time, click Done and download it at a later time. Be sure to save a backup of your key in a secure place.
