Create CAdES p7m using AWS KMS to Sign in the Cloud

See more Signing in the Cloud Examples

Demonstrates how to create a CAdES p7m, using AWS KMS. The signing of the hash happens in the Cloud on AWS KMS. Everything else regarding the creation of CAdES happens locally within Chilkat.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.96 or greater.

* This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
* See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

* Load the certificate used for signing.  The certificate's private key is stored in AWS KMS
* However, we still need the certificate locally (without private key).

* Here's a screenshot showing the key ID of a private key in AWS KMS:
* (image:https://example-code.com/images/aws_kms.jpg/endImage)

* To sign using AWS KMS, 
* add the following lines of code to specify your AWS authentication credentials,
* and the ID of the KMS private key.
loJsonAwsKms = CreateObject('Chilkat.JsonObject')
* Set the "service" equal to "aws_kms" to tell Chilkat to use AWS KMS for signing.
loJsonAwsKms.UpdateString("service","aws_kms")
loJsonAwsKms.UpdateString("access_key","ACCESS_KEY")
loJsonAwsKms.UpdateString("secret_key","SECRET_KEY")
* Make sure to specify the correct region for your case.
loJsonAwsKms.UpdateString("region","us-west-2")
* In the above screenshot, our key ID is "187012e8-008f-4fc7-b100-5efe6146dff2".  You will use your key ID.
