| type | string |
Indicates the type of the key material. Possible values are public, private, secret, unspecified, or unknown. |
| extractable | boolean |
Indicates whether the raw key material can be exported. |
| algorithm | object |
An object containing the algorithm used to generate or import the key. |
| usages | string[] |
