IKeyVaultClient.EncryptWithHttpMessagesAsync Method

Definition

Encrypts an arbitrary sequence of bytes using an encryption key that is stored in a key vault.

abstract member EncryptWithHttpMessagesAsync : string * string * string * string * byte[] * System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<string, System.Collections.Generic.List<string>> * System.Threading.CancellationToken -> System.Threading.Tasks.Task<Microsoft.Rest.Azure.AzureOperationResponse<Microsoft.Azure.KeyVault.Models.KeyOperationResult>>
Public Function EncryptWithHttpMessagesAsync (vaultBaseUrl As String, keyName As String, keyVersion As String, algorithm As String, value As Byte(), Optional customHeaders As Dictionary(Of String, List(Of String)) = Nothing, Optional cancellationToken As CancellationToken = Nothing) As Task(Of AzureOperationResponse(Of KeyOperationResult))

Parameters

vaultBaseUrl
String

The vault name, for example https://myvault.vault.azure.net.

keyName
String

The name of the key.

keyVersion
String

The version of the key.

algorithm
String

algorithm identifier. Possible values include: 'RSA-OAEP', 'RSA-OAEP-256', 'RSA1_5'

value
Byte[]
customHeaders
Dictionary<String,List<String>>

The headers that will be added to request.

cancellationToken
CancellationToken

The cancellation token.

Returns

Remarks

The ENCRYPT operation encrypts an arbitrary sequence of bytes using an encryption key that is stored in Azure Key Vault. Note that the ENCRYPT operation only supports a single block of data, the size of which is dependent on the target key and the encryption algorithm to be used. The ENCRYPT operation is only strictly necessary for symmetric keys stored in Azure Key Vault since protection with an asymmetric key can be performed using public portion of the key. This operation is supported for asymmetric keys as a convenience for callers that have a key-reference but do not have access to the public key material. This operation requires the keys/encypt permission.
