MONGOC_CLIENT_...TED_COLLECTION(3)  libmongoc MONGOC_CLIENT_...TED_COLLECTION(3)

SYNOPSIS
	mongoc_collection_t*
	mongoc_client_encryption_create_encrypted_collection (
	      mongoc_client_encryption_t *enc,
	      mongoc_database_t *database,
	      const char *name,
	      const bson_t *in_options,
	      bson_t *out_options,
	      const char *kms_provider,
	      const bson_t *opt_masterKey,
	      bson_error_t *error);

     Create a new collection with Queryable Encryption enabled. Requires a valid
     mongoc_client_encryption_t object to operate.

     Added in version 1.24.0.

     SEE ALSO:
	This	  function	is	a      convenience	API	wrapping
	mongoc_database_create_collection().

PARAMETERS
     * enc: The mongoc_client_encryption_t to be used  to  configure  encryption
       for the new collection.

     * database:  The mongoc_database_t in which the new collection will be cre-
       ated.

     * name: The name of the new collection.

     * in_options: The options for the new collection. (See below).

     * out_options: An optional output option for  the	final  create-collection
       options. Should point to storage for a bson_t. The pointed-to object must
       be destroyed by the caller. If NULL, has no effect.

     * kms_provider: The name of the KMS provider to use for generating new data
       encryption keys for encrypted fields within the collection.

     * opt_masterKey:  If  provided,  used as the masterkey option when data en-
       cryption      keys      need	  to	   be	    created.	   (See:
       mongoc_client_encryption_datakey_opts_set_masterkey())

     * error:  Optional output parameter pointing to storage for a bson_error_t.
       If an error occurs, will be initialized with error information.

RETURNS
     If successful, this function  returns  a  new  mongoc_collection_t  object.
     Upon  failure, returns NULL and initializes *error with an error indicating
     the reason for failure. The returned collection object must be freed by the
     caller.

CREATION OPTIONS
     The in_options parameter  behaves	similarly  to  the  opts  parameter  for
     mongoc_database_create_collection(), which accepts the options for the cre-
     ate  MongoDB  command  (Documented here).	The in_options document accepted
     here is different in one important way:

     The $.encryptedFields.fields array is required by this function,  and,  un-
     like  the schema documented for the create command, accepts a value of null
     for the keyId parameter on each array element.

     This function has the following as-if effect:

     1. A new set of options O will be created based on in_options.

     2. For each element F in the $.encryptedFields.fields array of O:

	1. If F contains a "keyId": null element, a new data encryption key  K_f
	   will       be       created	     as-if	by	calling      the
	   mongoc_client_encryption_create_datakey(), using the  relevant  argu-
	   ments   that   were	 given	 to  mongoc_client_encryption_create_en-
	   crypted_collection.

	2. The ID of K_f will be used  to  replace  the  "keyId":  null  element
	   within F.

     3. A collection will be created using the options O.

     4. If out_options is not NULL, O will be written to out_options.
