NAME
kms_management_key_import -

•   Description

•   Usage

•   Required Parameters

•   Optional Parameters

•   Global Parameters

•   Examples

DESCRIPTION

Imports AES key material to create a new key with. The key material must be base64-encoded and wrapped by the vault’s public RSA wrapping key before you can import it. Key Management supports AES symmetric keys that are exactly 16, 24, or 32 bytes. Furthermore, the key length must match what you specify at the time of import.

The top level –endpoint parameter must be supplied for this operation.

USAGE

oci kms management key import [OPTIONS]

REQUIRED PARAMETERS

--compartment-id, -c [text]

    The OCID of the compartment that contains this key.

--display-name [text]

    A user-friendly name for the key. It does not have to be unique, and it is changeable. Avoid entering confidential information.

--key-shape [complex type]

    This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

    The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--wrapped-import-key [complex type]

    This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

    The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

OPTIONAL PARAMETERS

--defined-tags [complex type]

    Usage of predefined tag keys. These predefined keys are scoped to namespaces. Example: {“foo-namespace”: {“bar-key”: “foo-value”}} This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

    The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--freeform-tags [complex type]

    Simple key-value pair that is applied without any predefined name, type, or scope. Exists for cross-compatibility only. Example: {“bar-key”: “value”} This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

    The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--from-json [text]

    Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax.

    The --generate-full-command-json-input option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.

    Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.

    For examples on usage of this option, please see our “using CLI with advanced JSON options” link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions

--protection-mode [text]

    The key’s protection mode indicates how the key persists and where cryptographic operations that use the key are performed. A protection mode of HSM means that the key persists on a hardware security module (HSM) and all cryptographic operations are performed inside the HSM. A protection mode of SOFTWARE means that the key persists on the server, protected by the vault’s RSA wrapping key which persists on the HSM. All cryptographic operations that use a key with a protection mode of SOFTWARE are performed on the server. By default, a key’s protection mode is set to HSM. You can’t change a key’s protection mode after the key is created or imported.

    Accepted values are:

    HSM, SOFTWARE

GLOBAL PARAMETERS

Use oci --help for help on global parameters.

--auth-purpose, --auth, --cert-bundle, --cli-rc-file, --config-file, --debug, --defaults-file, --endpoint, --generate-full-command-json-input, --generate-param-json-input, --help, --latest-version, --max-retries, --no-retry, --opc-client-request-id, --opc-request-id, --output, --profile, --query, --raw-output, --region, --release-info, --request-id, --version, -?, -d, -h, -v

EXAMPLES

Copy and paste the following example into a JSON file, replacing the example parameters with your own.

    oci kms management key import --generate-param-json-input key-shape > key-shape.json
    oci kms management key import --generate-param-json-input wrapped-import-key > wrapped-import-key.json

Copy the following CLI commands into a file named example.sh. Run the command by typing “bash example.sh” and replacing the example parameters with your own.

Please note this sample will only work in the POSIX-compliant bash-like shell. You need to set up the OCI configuration <https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliinstall.htm#configfile> and appropriate security policies <https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Identity/Concepts/policygetstarted.htm> before trying the examples.
