- DESCRIPTION
-
gcloud compute backend-buckets add-signed-url-key
is used to add a new Cloud CDN Signed URL key to a backend bucket.Cloud CDN Signed URLs give you a way to serve responses from the globally distributed CDN cache, even if the request needs to be authorized.
Signed URLs are a mechanism to temporarily give a client access to a private resource without requiring additional authorization. To achieve this, the full request URL that should be allowed is hashed and cryptographically signed. By using the signed URL you give it, that one request will be considered authorized to receive the requested content.
Generally, a signed URL can be used by anyone who has it. However, it is usually only intended to be used by the client that was directly given the URL. To mitigate this, they expire at a time chosen by the issuer. To minimize the risk of a signed URL being shared, it is recommended that the signed URL be set to expire as soon as possible.
A 128-bit secret key is used for signing the URLs.
