General Information
Policy Type
Description
Encryption policy encrypts data using cryptographic keys or certificates. It reads data from source variables, encrypts them using specified cipher algorithms, and stores the encrypted data in target variables. This policy provides data confidentiality capabilities. ⚠️ Implementation Status: This policy is currently not implemented in Management API. This policy cannot be created or managed through the Management API at this time. This documentation is provided for reference purposes and will be updated when full API support is added in a future release.Endpoints

Notes and Warnings
-
⚠️ Implementation Status:
- This policy is currently NOT IMPLEMENTED in Management API
- Attempting to create or update this policy via Management API will fail
- This documentation is provided for reference purposes only
- Full API support will be added in a future release
-
Cipher Algorithms:
- Symmetric algorithms (AES, DES, DESede) require
cryptoKeyInfoId - Asymmetric algorithms (RSA) can use either
cryptoKeyInfoId(KEY) orcertificateId(CERTIFICATE) - CBC mode algorithms require IV (set
createIV: true) - ECB mode algorithms do not require IV
- Symmetric algorithms (AES, DES, DESede) require
-
Initialization Vector (IV):
- Required for CBC mode algorithms
- Set
createIV: trueto generate IV automatically - IV is stored in
ivVarwith specifiedivEncodingType - IV must be provided for decryption
-
Encoding Types:
BASE64- Common encoding for encrypted dataHEXADECIMAL- Alternative encoding format- Output encoding must match input encoding for decryption
-
Key/Certificate Management:
- Keys must be configured in Key Store before use
- Certificates must be configured in Certificate Store before use
- Use
enumKeyCertificateTypeto specify key or certificate source
-
Variable Types:
- Source and target variables can be from headers, parameters, body, or context
- Use appropriate variable types based on data location
-
Multiple Definitions:
- Multiple encryption definitions can be configured in one policy
- Each definition encrypts a different source variable
- Definitions are executed in order
Permissions
User must haveAPI_MANAGEMENT + MANAGE permission in the project. For deployment operations (when deploy: true is set), user must also have API_MANAGEMENT + DEPLOY_UNDEPLOY permission.
