above you can observe key is written to file "id_rsa"

You can cat this file and check for key and got azure website vm page

paste this key in reset password section--> Reset SSH Public key -> under support and troubleshoot section

you can paste the above key in the "public ssh key"

Now you can use command

ssh azureuser@your_public_ipaddres
