How Generate Rsa Keypair

How to Generate an RSA Keypair?

To integrate the API endpoints with signature. First you need to generate an RSA keypair. After you generate the RSA keypair, you will get PrivateKey and PublicKey.

  • The PrivateKey is used to sign the request.
  • The PublicKey is used to verify the signature.

Then you keep the PrivateKey in a secure place and share the PublicKey with the API provider.

Getting Started

This guide will show the step by step process of generating an RSA keypair using the openssl command.

Install openssl

Please make sure you have openssl installed on your system. There is many ways to install openssl on your system.

Generate RSA Keypair

To generate an RSA keypair, run the following command:

openssl genrsa -out {{name}}_private.pem 2048
openssl rsa -in {{name}}_private.pem -pubout -out {{name}}_public.pem
openssl rsa -in {{name}}_private.pem -out {{name}}_private_t.pem -traditional

You can replace the {{name}} to any name you want.

You will get these 3 files:

  1. {{name}}_private_t.pem: Private key file in traditional format
  2. {{name}}_public.pem: Public key file
  3. {{name}}_private.pem: Private key file

We need to exchange PrivateKey(1) and PublicKey(2) for the API integration with signature.
