# Export Public Key (JWKS JSON)

##

Required permission:

* [certmgt:read:key](../reference/roles-and-permissions-in-pingone/pingone-permissions-by-identifier.html#permission-certmgt-read-key "Learn more about this permission")

```none
GET {{apiPath}}/v1/environments/{{envID}}/keys/{{keyID}}
```

To get a JSON web key set (JWKS) from a specific encryption-decryption key pair, the `GET {{apiPath}}/v1/environments/{{envID|}/key/{{keyID}}` operation returns a JSON file. This operation requires an `Accept` header in the request that specifies `application/jwk-set+json`.

The sample shows the JSON response, which includes the following `keys` property claims:

* `kty`: The key type.

* `kid`: The key ID, a value that identifies the ID of the corresponding encryption-decryption key pair.

* `n`: The modulus value for the RSA public key.

* `e`: The RSA public exponent.

### Headers

Authorization      Bearer {{accessToken}}

Accept      application/jwk-set+json

##

### Example Request

* cURL

* C#

* Go

* HTTP

* Java

* jQuery

* NodeJS

* Python

* PHP

* Ruby

* Swift

```shell
curl --location --globoff '{{apiPath}}/v1/environments/{{envID}}/keys/{{keyID}}' \
--header 'Accept: application/jwk-set+json' \

```

```csharp

RestResponse response = await client.ExecuteAsync(request);
Console.WriteLine(response.Content);
```
