Parameter

Mandatory

Type

Description

key_id

Yes

String

36-byte ID of a CMK that matches the regular expression ^[0-9a-z]{8}-[0-9a-z]{4}-[0-9a-z]{4}-[0-9a-z]{4}-[0-9a-z]{12}$

Example: 0d0466b0-e727-4d9c-b35d-f84bb474a37f

encryption_context

No

Object

Key-value pairs with a maximum length of 8192 characters. This parameter is used to record resource context information, excluding sensitive information, to ensure data integrity.

If this parameter is specified during encryption, it is also required for decryption.

Example: {"Key1":"Value1","Key2":"Value2"}

cipher_text

Yes

String

This parameter indicates the hexadecimal character string of the DEK ciphertext and the metadata. The value is the cipher_text value in the encryption result of a DEK.

datakey_cipher_length

Yes

String

Number of bytes of a key. The value is 64.

sequence

No

String

36-byte serial number of a request message

Example: 919c82d4-8046-4722-9094-35c3c6524cff
