IBM Cloud Secrets - Create or Update a JSON Secret

See more Secrets Examples

Demonstrates how to create or update a JSON secret stored in the IBM Cloud Secrets.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v10.1.0 or later.

Objective-C

#import <CkoSecrets.h>
#import <CkoJsonObject.h>

BOOL success = NO;

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

// The bootstrap secret will contain the following information:

// IBM Cloud API Key

// See following examples for setting up a bootstrap secret in memory, 
// or in the local manager (Windows Credentials Manager or Apple Keychain)
// Setup Bootstrap Secret in Local Manager
// Setup Bootstrap Secret in Memory
CkoSecrets *bootstrap = [[CkoSecrets alloc] init];

// Set the location of the bootstrap secret.
// Can be "local_manager" or "memory", depending on how you setup the bootstrap secret.
// ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// If your operating system is NOT Windows or MacOS/iOS, then change "local_manager" to "memory"
// You can also, if desired, use "memory" on Windows and MacOS/iOS if your bootstrap secret was previously setup in memory.
// ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
bootstrap.Location = @"local_manager";

// Specify the bootstrap secret to be used.
CkoJsonObject *bsId = [[CkoJsonObject alloc] init];
[bsId UpdateString: @"appName" value: @"ibm_bs"];

// ----------------------------------------------------
CkoSecrets *secrets = [[CkoSecrets alloc] init];

// Setup for the IBM Cloud Secrets
secrets.Location = @"ibm_cloud";
success = [secrets SetBootstrapSecret: bsId secretContent: bootstrap];
if (success == NO) {
    NSLog(@"%@",secrets.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// ----
// Specify the name of the secret.
// service and username are required.
// appName and domain are optional.
// Note: The values are arbitrary and can be anything you want.
CkoJsonObject *json = [[CkoJsonObject alloc] init];
[json UpdateString: @"appName" value: @"MyApp"];
[json UpdateString: @"service" value: @"OAuth2"];

// You'll also need to specify your IBM Cloud instance ID and region for each API call.
[json UpdateString: @"instance_id" value: @"a88a0c56-50a6-4461-9911-345b173e1171"];

// Get the secret to be stored.
