# `rsadecrypt` Function
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`rsadecrypt` decrypts an RSA-encrypted ciphertext, returning the corresponding
|
|
|
|
|
cleartext.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```hcl
|
|
|
|
|
rsadecrypt(ciphertext, privatekey)
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`ciphertext` must be a base64-encoded representation of the ciphertext, using
|
|
|
|
|
the PKCS #1 v1.5 padding scheme. Terraform uses the "standard" Base64 alphabet
|
|
|
|
|
as defined in [RFC 4648 section 4](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-4).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`privatekey` must be a PEM-encoded RSA private key that is not itself
|
|
|
|
|
encrypted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Terraform has no corresponding function for _encrypting_ a message. Use this
|
|
|
|
|
function to decrypt ciphertexts returned by remote services using a keypair
|
|
|
|
|
negotiated out-of-band.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
> rsadecrypt(filebase64("${path.module}/ciphertext"), file("privatekey.pem"))
|
|
|
|
|
Hello, world!
|
|
|
|
|
```
