:ExportDataKey

Last Updated:Feb 21, 2025

Encrypts a data key by using a specific public key and exports the data key.

Usage notes

This API can be called through either a shared gateway or a dedicated gateway. For more information, see Alibaba Cloud SDK.

  • Shared gateway: Accesses KMS through public network or VPC domain names, using one of the following formats:

    • Public network domain names: kms.<REGION_ID>.aliyuncs.com.

    • VPC domain names: kms-vpc.<REGION_ID>.aliyuncs.com.

    This method requires enabling public network access. For instructions, see Access KMS instance keys over the Internet.

  • Dedicated gateway: Access KMS through the KMS private network domain names, following the format: <YOUR_KMS_INSTANCE_ID>.cryptoservice.kms.aliyuncs.com.

Description

You can call the GenerateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext operation to obtain the data key that is encrypted by using a key. If you want to distribute the data key to other regions or cryptographic modules, you can call the ExportDataKey operation to obtain the ciphertext of the data key that is encrypted by using the specified public key.

Then, you can import the ciphertext of the data key that is encrypted by using the public key to a cryptographic module where paired private keys are stored. This way, the data key is securely distributed from KMS to the cryptographic module. After the data key is imported to the cryptographic module, you can use it to encrypt or decrypt data.

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer. OpenAPI Explorer dynamically generates the sample code of the operation for different SDKs.

The Base64-encoded public key.

WrappingKeySpec

String

Yes

RSA_2048

The key type of the public key that is specified by PublicKeyBlob. For more information about key types, see Introduction to asymmetric keys.

Valid values:

  • RSA_2048

  • EC_SM2

WrappingAlgorithm

String

Yes

RSAES_OAEP_SHA_256

The encryption algorithm based on which you use the public key specified by PublicKeyBlob to encrypt the data key. For more information about encryption algorithms, see AsymmetricDecrypt.

Valid values:

  • RSAES_OAEP_SHA_256

  • RSAES_OAEP_SHA_1

  • SM2PKE

DryRun

String

No

false

Specifies whether to perform a dry run. Valid values:

  • true

  • false (default)

A dry run is used for testing in API calls. You can perform a dry run to check whether you have the permissions to access the resources that you want to manage and whether the request parameters are correctly configured. If you set DryRun to true in the request, KMS always returns an error code that indicates the cause of the error. KMS may return the following error codes:

  • DryRunOperationError: The request passes the dry run. If you do not configure the DryRun parameter and retain the other parameter configurations to call the same operation, the operation will be performed.

  • ValidationError: A parameter value in the request is invalid.

  • AccessDeniedError: You do not have the permissions to access the resources that you want to manage.
