keyVaultNamespace string A fully qualified namespace (e.g. "databaseName.collectionName") denoting the collection that contains all data keys used for encryption and decryption. This option is required.
kmsProviders array

A document containing the configuration for one or more KMS providers, which are used to encrypt data keys. Supported providers include "aws", "azure", "gcp", "kmip", and "local" and at least one must be specified.

    identityPlatformEndpoint: <optional string> // Defaults to "login.microsoftonline.com"
}

The format for "gcp" is as follows:

gcp: {
    email: <string>,
    privateKey: <base64 string>|<MongoDB\BSON\Binary>,
    endpoint: <optional string> // Defaults to "oauth2.googleapis.com"
}

The format for "kmip" is as follows:

kmip: {
    endpoint: <string>
}

The format for "local" is as follows:

local: {
    // 96-byte master key used to encrypt/decrypt data keys
    key: <base64 string>|<MongoDB\BSON\Binary>
}
tlsOptions array

<provider>: {
    tlsCaFile: <optional string>,
    tlsCertificateKeyFile: <optional string>,

Changelog

Version Description
PECL mongodb 1.16.0

The AWS KMS provider for client-side encryption now accepts a "sessionToken" option, which can be used to authenticate with temporary AWS credentials.

Added "tlsDisableOCSPEndpointCheck" to the "tlsOptions" option.

If an empty document is specified for the "azure" or "gcp" KMS provider, the driver will attempt to configure the provider using » Automatic Credentials.

PECL mongodb 1.15.0

If an empty document is specified for the "aws" KMS provider, the driver will attempt to configure the provider using » Automatic Credentials.

PECL mongodb 1.12.0

KMIP is now supported as a KMS provider for client-side encryption and may be configured in the "kmsProviders" option.

Added the "tlsOptions" option.

PECL mongodb 1.10.0 Azure and GCP are now supported as KMS providers for client-side encryption and may be configured in the "kmsProviders" option. Base64-encoded strings are now accepted as an alternative to MongoDB\BSON\Binary for options within "kmsProviders".
