ssh on my server does not permit password-based login -- I use public/private keys.
I want to create an ssh/sftp video source in my Android XBMC app.
My device is a nexus 7 running Android 4.4.4
Where should I place my private key on the device so that the ssh/sftp video source will work properly?
Thanks in advance for your help!

I don't think you can in XBMC. You could mount via operating system or app perhaps?

I didn't know it worked in xbmc at all, does a debug log tell where the key is being looked for?

With kodi 16, you can store the private keys used for ssh connection under /sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.ssh. The folder might not be visible so use adb to copy the file.
