MDN / EcKeyGenParams

The EcKeyGenParams dictionary of the Web Crypto API represents the object that should be passed as the algorithm parameter into [` {{ APIRef(“Web Crypto API”) }}

The EcKeyGenParams dictionary of the Web Crypto API represents the object that should be passed as the algorithm parameter into {{domxref(“SubtleCrypto/generateKey()”)}}, when generating any elliptic-curve-based key pair: that is, when the algorithm is identified as either of ECDSA or ECDH/

Instance properties

  • name

    • : A string/ This should be set to ECDSA or ECDH, depending on the algorithm you want to use/

    namedCurve

    • : A string representing the name of the elliptic curve to use/ This may be any of the following names for NIST-approved curves:

      • P-256

      • P-384

      • P-521

Examples

See the examples for {{domxref(“SubtleCrypto/generateKey()”)}}/
