I use it this way:

    'SFTP' => [
      'driver' => 'sftp',
      'host' => '0.0.0.0',
      'username' => 'admin',
      'privateKey' => '-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----000000000000000000000000000000-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----',
      'root' => '/',
      'timeout' => 10
    ],

When i use with password it doesn’t work for me. Also i couldn’t get the privateKey file reference to work so i use the contents of it directly (i think this is also a tiny bit more performant).

I also suggest you use the cache option so the server doesn’t have to re-auth every time you call the disk.

composer require league/flysystem-cached-adapter

    'SFTP' => [
      'driver' => 'sftp',
      'host' => '0.0.0.0',
      'username' => 'admin',
      'privateKey' => '-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----000000000000000000000000000000-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----',
      'root' => '/',
      'timeout' => 10,
      'cache' => true
    ],
