try_aes_decrypt function

Applies to: check marked yes Databricks SQL check marked yes Databricks Runtime 13.3 LTS and above

Decrypts a binary produced using AES encryption and returns NULL if that fails for any reason.

Syntax

try_aes_decrypt(expr, key [, mode [, padding [, aad]]])

Arguments

  • expr: The BINARY expression to be decrypted.
  • key: A BINARY expression. Must match the key originally used to produce the encrypted value and be 16, 24, or 32 bytes long.
  • mode: An optional STRING expression describing the encryption mode used to produce the encrypted value.
  • padding: An optional STRING expression describing how encryption handled padding of the value to key length.
  • aad: An optional STRING expression providing authenticated additional data (AAD) in GCM mode. Must match the aad used to produce the encrypted value. Applies to Databricks SQL and Databricks Runtime 13.3 LTS and above.

Returns

A BINARY.

mode must be one of (case-insensitive):

  • 'ECB': Use Electronic CodeBook (ECB) mode.
  • 'GCM': Use Galois/Counter Mode (GCM). This is the default.

padding must be one of (case-insensitive):

  • 'NONE': Uses no padding. Valid only for 'GCM'.
  • 'PKCS': Uses Public Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS) padding. Valid only for 'ECB'.
  • 'DEFAULT': Uses 'NONE' for 'GCM' and 'PKCS' for 'ECB' mode.

The algorithm depends on the length of the key:

  • 16: AES-128
  • 24: AES-192
  • 32: AES-256

To raise errors instead of NULL in case of error conditions use try_aes_decrypt.
