I corrected a few relref specs. I'll go ahead and approve.
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| - `sse_customer_key` must be a base64-encoded string that decodes to exactly 32 bytes (AES-256). | ||
| - SSE-C encryption is only available for S3 and S3-compatible storage locations, and only for this one export request. You can't add `encryption` to a database's persisted [backup_location]({{<relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api/objects/bdb/backup_location">}}) configuration, so SSE-C isn't available for [scheduled backups]({{<relref "/operate/rs/databases/import-export/schedule-backups.md">}}). |

Low Risk
Documentation-only changes with no runtime or API implementation in this diff; risk is limited to doc accuracy and customer key-handling guidance.
Overview
Documents customer-provided S3 encryption (SSE-C) for Redis Software on-demand export and import over S3 and S3-compatible storage.
The docs add optional
encryptionobjects (type:"sse-c",sse_customer_keyas base64-encoded 32-byte AES-256 key) onexport_locationand S3 entries indataset_import_sources, with JSON examples in the how-to pages and REST API reference (backup_location,dataset_import_sources, export/import actions).They also state that SSE-C is request-scoped only: it works on export/import action requests and must not be stored in persisted
backup_locationordataset_import_sources(requests fail if you try). Scheduled backups explicitly do not support SSE-C, with a note on the schedule-backups page linking to on-demand export/import.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 02afd59.
