Updating the Master Encryption Key Assigned to a Stream Pool

This information describes updating the master encryption key assigned to a stream pool.

Required IAM Policy

To use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, you must be granted security access in a policy  by an administrator. This access is required whether you're using the Console or the REST API with an SDK, CLI, or other tool. If you get a message that you don’t have permission or are unauthorized, verify with your administrator what type of access you have and which compartment  to work in.

For administrators: The policy in Let streaming admins manage streaming resources lets the specified group do everything with streaming and related Streaming service resources.

Policies for Encryption Keys

To use your own encryption key, you must let the Streaming service use a Vault key to encrypt data in streams in this stream pool. For example:

allow service streaming to use keys in compartment ABC where target.key.id = '<key_OCID>'

The preceding policy also requires a companion policy to let Streaming use a key on behalf of a user group to create a stream pool that uses the key for cryptographic purposes. For example:

allow user group StreamWriters to use key-delegate in compartment ABC where target.key.id = '<key_OCID>'

If you're new to policies, see Getting Started with Policies and Common Policies. If you want to dig deeper into writing policies for the Streaming service, see Details for the Streaming service in the IAM policy reference and Accessing Streaming Resources Across Tenancies.

Using the Console

  1. Open the navigation menu and click Analytics & AI. Under Messaging, click Streaming.
  2. Click Stream Pools.
  3. Click a stream pool to display the stream pool details page.
  4. In Stream Pool Information, next to Encryption Key, do one of the following:
    • To stop using an Oracle-managed key in favor of a Vault master encryption key that you manage, click Assign, select a vault and encryption key you have access to, and then click Assign.
    • To select a different Vault master encryption key that you manage, click Update, select a vault and encryption key you have access to, and then click Update.
    • Click Unassign to remove the assigned Vault master encryption key and let Oracle manage the encryption key, and then click Unassign again to confirm the removal of the existing key assignment.
