Maybe I misunderstand what you're trying to do, but you shouldn't have to use ssh-add or anything of the sort; cloudlaunch will do this for you. When you put your credentials into those two boxes at usegalaxy.org/cloudlaunch, what exactly happens?

Whoever your organization administrator is will need to either create those keys for you, or allow your IAM user access to them. Are you able to contact the person that administers your account?

Good Morning Dannon

we have paid amazon service, I log into EC2 using organization credentials, but get that screen ( below) while trying to identify account text string in AWS console section

Launching a cloud instance of galaxy would require this account text string
