To search key names by multiple attributes
The API I_C_GetKeyNames is introduced to accept multiple search criteria. This API can accept multiple custom attribute to search.
Example
The following search options are available. All the search criteria are optional.
| Search options | Description |

Custom attributes name, value, and type are mandatory. The I_C_CreateCustomAttributeList and I_C_AddToAttributeList APIs can be used to create custom attribute list and to add multiple attributes in the list.Note: Use of "type" custom attribute is supported from CipherTrust Application Data Protection CAPI version 8.12.2 onward. |
| Conjunctive Operator | This operator is applied on custom attributes given in search criteria. Valid values:— AND: key should have all the attributes listed —OR: key should have any of the attributes listed |
| KeyOffset | This is an index of a key array received. From this index onward, the keys will be sent in response. For example: If there are total 10 keys and the offset is 2 then in response, keys will be listed starting from index 2 rather than 0. |
| Max Keys | Total keys received by the user in response starting from offset mentioned. |
| FingerPrint | Search on the basis of a fingerprint. |
In response, this API returns:
| Returned value | Description |
