# HMAC (C/C++)


This topic walks you through on how to generate a hash-based message authentication code (HMAC), which provides authentication using a shared secret instead of using digital signatures with asymmetric cryptography.

## Add the dynamic library in the CMake script.
```txt
   target_link_libraries(entry PUBLIC libhuks_ndk.z.so)
```

## How to Develop

**Key Generation**

1. Set the key alias.

2. Initialize the key property set.

3. Use **OH_Huks_GenerateKeyItem** to generate a key. For details about the HMAC specifications, see [Key Generation](huks-key-generation-overview.md#supported-algorithms).

You can also import a key. For details about the supported algorithms, see [Supported Algorithms](huks-key-import-overview.md#supported-algorithms).

**HMAC Generation**

1. Obtain the key alias.

2. Obtains the data to be calculated.

3. Use [OH_Huks_InitParamSet](../../reference/apis-universal-keystore-kit/_huks_param_set_api.md#oh_huks_initparamset) to configure algorithm parameters.
   

4. Use [OH_Huks_InitSession](../../reference/apis-universal-keystore-kit/_huks_key_api.md#oh_huks_initsession) to initialize a key session. The session handle is returned after the initialization.

5. Use [OH_Huks_FinishSession](../../reference/apis-universal-keystore-kit/_huks_key_api.md#oh_huks_finishsession) to obtain the hashed data.
