Generates a hash-based message authentication code.

This function is restricted. Use of this function in your script will require a manual review before it will execute on the Sentinel infrastructure.

Signatures

beacon.hmac(algorithm, key, input);

Parameters

algorithm

One of md5, sha1, sha256, sha-256, sha2-256, sha512, sha-512, sha2-512, sha3-256, or sha3-512. Some of these values are duplicates intended to be easier to remember.

key

The raw key to use. Do not use an encoding.

input

The input value for the hashing algorithm.

Return Values

Type	Notes
String	The message signature, hex encoded.

Examples

Generate a SHA256 hash of Hello World

const signature = beacon.hmac('sha256', 'Password', 'Hello World');
beacon.debugPrint(signature); // Outputs "25c8922af6ecd2eff0e67b107aca31f604b0cdf0ccc67379b007e315b07106a7"
