Bearer TOKENThe media type of the request body
What was signed and the signature parameters, in the RFC 9421 format. A credential with a public key must send it on every call, reads included, or the request is refused with 401. The signature covers the @method, @path, and @query components, and also content-digest when there is a body. created and alg are required, and created is valid for 300 seconds. The full format, with examples, is in Request Signing.
The signature of the base defined by RFC 9421, in base64, between : and under the same label used in Signature-Input, for example sig=:SGVsbG8gd29ybGQ=:. It always goes together with Signature-Input.
Hash of the request body in the RFC 9530 format, with sha-256 or sha-512, for example sha-256=:X48E9qOokqqrvdts8nOJRJN3OWDUoyWxBf7kbu9DBPE=:. It is required when the request has a body and the credential has a public key, and in that case Signature-Input must include the content-digest component.
