Step Details | |
| Introduced in Version | 9.18.0 |
| Last Modified in Version | -- |
| Location | PGP |
The Verify File step uses the specified public key to determine whether the input file has an authentic digital signature.
Prerequisites
- This step requires the PGP module to be installed before it will be available in the toolbox.
- Users must download GPG before utilizing this and other PGP steps.
Considerations
In v9.18, PGP steps were moved to a legacy category, and new steps were added. While the new PGP steps use an updated encryption/decryption approach (based on AEAD/OCB mode), both categories of steps can be utilized as they have the same functionality.
Properties
Inputs
| Property | Description | Data Type |
|---|---|---|
| Data | The desired file to evaluate | List of Byte |
| Sender Public Key | The PGP-generated Public Key file | List of Byte |
Example Inputs and Outputs
Common Errors
Buffer cannot be null
If the Data or Sender Public Key fields are null or empty, the step will cause an error.
To correct this, ensure both fields have an appropriate file uploaded or mapped.
