ingested encrypted data in to AEP using API

[nirshani]

hi 

I'm trying to ingest encrypted data into AEP from   Data Landing zone

first, i ingested the data without encryption to be sure that my mapping is working 

then i followed https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/sources/api-tutorials/encrypt-data.html?... 

i have used the public key from the call https://platform.adobe.io/data/foundation/connectors/encryption/keys to encrypt my csv   using  GPG keychain software on my Mac

the data flow failed with the following error 107 Unable to ingest the data in the file because the encoding does not match the original file.

i have saved my file in UTF-8 

any ideas ?

Hey @nirshani 

I am assuming the unencrypted file was uploaded successfully.

In the documentation, the step which talks about public key mentions that the public key is Base-64 encoded and must be decrypted before using. Just wanted to check with you if it was indeed decrypted before you used it to encrypt the file?

Cheers,

hi Thanks i do notice that and concert the key back 

one other thing i noticed is that one of the steps in the tutorial is not working for me

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/sources/api-tutorials/create/cloud-stora...

the call 

http://platform.adobe.io/data/foundation/flowservice/connectionSpecs/26f526f2-58f4-4712-961d-e41bf1ccc0e8/explore?objectType=root'

lead to time out

Hey @nirshani 

From your response above, I am assuming you got the encryption piece working post decrypting the public key?

Now you are trying to access the folder contents from the landing zone using the above API which is timing out. Is it correct understanding ? Your initial issue is resolved then ?
