Hi After reviewing the documentation, I am unable to use pg\_tde with a “file-keyring” provider and a key stored locally in a file. Could you please provide me with all the commands required to create an encrypted table? Thanks in advance Best Regards Didier ---

Hello @did16, I followed [the documentation](https://docs.percona.com/pg-tde/global-key-provider-configuration/keyring.html) and it worked perfectly. Can you share all the commands you ran, and the output? ---
