The SubtleCrypto.sign()
method returns a Promise
containing the signature corresponding to the text, algorithm and key given as parameters.
var signature = crypto.subtle.sign(algo, key, text2sign);
algo
is a DOMString
defining the signature function to use. Supported values are: HMAC
, RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5
, and ECDSA
.CryptoKey
containing the private key to be used for signing.text2sign
is a ArrayBuffer
or an ArrayBufferView
containing the data to be signed.signature
is a Promise
that returns the signature on success.The promise is rejected when the following exception is encountered:
InvalidAccessError
when the signing key is not a key for the request signing algorithm or when trying to use an algorithm that is either unknown or isn't suitable for signing.Specification | Status | Comment |
