Creating Keys

In order to use KMS with the Privacy Platform, keys must be created in Ionic.

To proceed, follow these steps:

  1. Log in with the user ID of the persistor profile, create Keys adding the Privitar ‘key name’ as an ‘ionic_external_id’ attribute. Use the Create Keys with External ID approach (https://dev.ionic.com/sdk/tasks/create-key-with-external-id)

  2. Create a policy so the Service User configured in Creating Service User in Ionic Machina can access the Ionic keys. You can refer to the Ionic documentation to proceed: https://dev.ionic.com/tutorials/policy/create-data-policy

    Example 3. Impersonation example

    If we want a user named privitar to impersonate an account named service-user to access a key named key, the policy must be configured with:

    • service-user is allowed to access key.

    • privitar is allowed to access key when ionic-delegated-external-id is service-user.
