hi chetandevani, the current firefox sync system doesn't have a recovery key - so it appears you are referring to the "old sync", which was decommissioned in autumn of last year.

if you want to use firefox sync, please update to a current version of firefox and create a new firefox account: Update Firefox to the latest release Firefox Sync upgrade - Frequently Asked Questions

edit: data from the old sync system that is not synced to a local profile will be lost by now.
