Resource: DnsKey

A DNSSEC key pair.

}
Fields
id

string

Unique identifier for the resource; defined by the server (output only).

algorithm

enum (Algorithm)

String mnemonic specifying the DNSSEC algorithm of this key. Immutable after creation time.

keyLength

integer

Length of the key in bits. Specified at creation time, and then immutable.

publicKey

string

Base64 encoded public half of this key. Output only.

creationTime

string

The time that this resource was created in the control plane. This is in RFC3339 text format. Output only.

isActive

boolean

Active keys are used to sign subsequent changes to the ManagedZone. Inactive keys are still present as DNSKEY Resource Records for the use of resolvers validating existing signatures.

type

enum (KeyType)

One of "KEY_SIGNING" or "ZONE_SIGNING". Keys of type KEY_SIGNING have the Secure Entry Point flag set and, when active, are used to sign only resource record sets of type DNSKEY. Otherwise, the Secure Entry Point flag is cleared, and this key is used to sign only resource record sets of other types. Immutable after creation time.

keyTag

integer

The key tag is a non-cryptographic hash of the a DNSKEY resource record associated with this DnsKey. The key tag can be used to identify a DNSKEY more quickly (but it is not a unique identifier). In particular, the key tag is used in a parent zone's DS record to point at the DNSKEY in this child ManagedZone. The key tag is a number in the range [0, 65535] and the algorithm to calculate it is specified in RFC4034 Appendix B. Output only.

digests[]

object (Digest)

Cryptographic hashes of the DNSKEY resource record associated with this DnsKey. These digests are needed to construct a DS record that points at this DNS key. Output only.

description

string

A mutable string of at most 1024 characters associated with this resource for the user's convenience. Has no effect on the resource's function.

kind

string

Digest

JSON representation
{
  "type": enum (DigestType),
  "digest": string
}
Fields
type

enum (DigestType)

Specifies the algorithm used to calculate this digest.

digest

string

The base-16 encoded bytes of this digest. Suitable for use in a DS resource record.

DigestType

Enums
sha1
sha256
sha384

Methods

get

Fetches the representation of an existing DnsKey.

list

Enumerates DnsKeys to a ResourceRecordSet collection.
