.SH "NAME"
.HP
gcloud alpha kms mac\-sign \- sign a user input file using a MAC key version



.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP
\f5gcloud alpha kms mac\-sign\fR \fB\-\-input\-file\fR=\fIINPUT_FILE\fR \fB\-\-signature\-file\fR=\fISIGNATURE_FILE\fR [\fB\-\-key\fR=\fIKEY\fR] [\fB\-\-keyring\fR=\fIKEYRING\fR] [\fB\-\-location\fR=\fILOCATION\fR] [\fB\-\-skip\-integrity\-verification\fR] [\fB\-\-version\fR=\fIVERSION\fR] [\fIGCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG\ ...\fR]



.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fB(ALPHA)\fR Creates a digital signature of the input file using the provided
MAC signing key version and saves the base64 encoded signature.

The required flag \f5signature\-file\fR indicates the path to store signature.

By default, the command performs integrity verification on data sent to and
received from Cloud KMS. Use \-\-skip\-integrity\-verification to disable
integrity verification.



.SH "EXAMPLES"

The following command will read the file '/tmp/my/file.to.sign', and sign it
using the symmetric MAC CryptoKey \f5dont\-panic\fR Version 3, and save the
signature in base64 format to '/tmp/my/signature'.

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha kms mac\-sign \-\-location=us\-central1 \e
    \-\-keyring=hitchhiker \-\-key=dont\-panic \-\-version=3 \e
    \-\-input\-file=/tmp/my/file.to.sign \e
    \-\-signature\-file=/tmp/my/signature
