An ImportJob can be used to create
CryptoKeys and
CryptoKeyVersions using pre-
existing key material, generated outside of Cloud KMS. When an
ImportJob is created, Cloud KMS will
generate a "wrapping key", which is a public/private key pair. You use
the wrapping key to encrypt (also known as wrap) the pre-existing key
material to protect it during the import process. The nature of the
wrapping key depends on the choice of
[import_method][google.cloud.kms.v1.ImportJob.import_method]. When
the wrapping key generation is complete, the
state will be set to
ACTIVE and the
[public_key][google.cloud.kms.v1.ImportJob.public_key] can be
fetched. The fetched public key can then be used to wrap your pre-
existing key material. Once the key material is wrapped, it can be
imported into a new
CryptoKeyVersion in an
existing CryptoKey by calling [Import
CryptoKeyVersion][google.cloud.kms.v1.KeyManagementService.ImportCrypt
oKeyVersion]. Multiple
CryptoKeyVersions can be
imported with a single ImportJob.
Cloud KMS uses the private key portion of the wrapping key to unwrap
the key material. Only Cloud KMS has access to the private key. An
ImportJob expires 3 days after it is
created. Once expired, Cloud KMS will no longer be able to import or
unwrap any key material that was wrapped with the
ImportJob's public key. For more
information, see Importing a key
<https://cloud.google.com/kms/docs/importing-a-key>__.
.. attribute:: name
Output only. The resource name for this
ImportJob in the format
projects/*/locations/*/keyRings/*/importJobs/*.
Required. Immutable. The protection level of the ImportJob. This must match the [protection_level][google.cloud.kms.v1.CryptoKeyVersionTe mplate.protection_level] of the [version_template][google.cl oud.kms.v1.CryptoKey.version_template] on the CryptoKey you attempt to import into.
Output only. The time this ImportJob's key material was generated.
Output only. The time this ImportJob expired. Only present if state is [EX PIRED][google.cloud.kms.v1.ImportJob.ImportJobState.EXPIRED].
Output only. The public key with which to wrap key material prior to import. Only returned if state is ACTIVE.
