Hi Douglas ,
It would be great if you could respond to the email with the explanation
provided in yesterday's IRC meeting so that I can share it with my team.
Thanks and Regards,
Asha Seshagiri

Sure John . Thanks a lot John for your response.
I would like Barbican to support the retrieval of the secret in plain/text
format generated from the order resource.Since it is very important for our
Encryption usecase which is dependent on the key generated from Barbican.
I would like to know
Thanks Nate for your response.
I would need Barbican to generate the key in plain/text format which is the
human readable form so that I can use that key in Standard Crytp graphy
libraries in python which takes key as the argument.
Yeah , text/plain format means the bytes are in base64 format.
Hello Asha,
Barbican is not yet supporting the conversion of secrets of one format to
another. If you have thoughts on desired conversions however, please mentioned
them in this thread, or else consider mentioning them in our weekly IRC meeting
(freenode #openstack-meeting-alt at 3pm CDT).
Asha,
When you say you want your key in ASCII does that also mean putting
the bytes in hex or base64 format? Isn't ASCII only 7 bits?

Hello Asha,
The AES type key should require an application/octet-stream Accept header to
retrieve the secret as it is a binary type. Please replace 'text/plain' with
'application/octet-stream' in your curl calls below.
Thanks,

Thanks John for your response.
I am aware that application/octet-stream works for the retrieval of secret
.
We are utilizing the key generated from Barbican in our AES encryption
algorithm . Hence we wanted the response in text/plain format from
Barbican since AES encryption algorithm would need
Hi All ,
I am currently working on use cases for database and file Encryption.It is
really important for us to know since my Encryption use case would be using
the key generated by Barbican through order resource as the key.
The encyption algorithms would not accept the binary format and even if
