+# Encrypt an existing database
+
+## Users identity
+
+If your application has existing users, you have to explicitly onboard the `application user` to let them create a cryptographic identity (the `e2esdk user`). This is done **on the client**.
+
+```js
+import { useE2ESDKClient } from '@socialgouv/e2esdk-react'
+
+const client = useE2ESDKClient()
+
+// some user uuid from your application
+const uuid = session.user.id
+
+// signup the user to e2esdk
+await client.signup(uuid)
+
+// login existing user
+await client.login(uuid)
+```
+
+The client is password-less thanks to devices storing their secrets in `localStorage`, and once logged-in you can start encrypting/decrypting your payloads.
+
+> The `uuid` must be stable for a given user, not an email because it could be changed by the user.
+
+## Database impacts
+
+If you e2e encrypt your database fields, **your server won't be able to do any processing** on these. Filtering, sorting, grouping will only be available client-side in your frontend UI, once data is decrypted.
+
+The main challenge regarding converting clear-text data to e2e encrypted in an existing application is that **you cannot migrate data server-side** so you have to implement it client-side and encrypt progressively.
+
+- we recommend adding a `[fieldname]_encrypted` field to your DB
+- on the client side:
+  - `read`: if the `[fieldname]_encrypted` field is filled, decrypt it and use it. if not, use `[fieldname]`
+  - `write`: when user updates data, encrypt it and POST the `[fieldname]_encrypted` field
+- progressively cleanup cleartext data (at runtime, when `[fieldname]_encrypted` is provided, or via some cronjob)
+
+## Read encrypted data
+
+This is how you could read and decrypt a `firstName` field coming from your API and for which you have a decryption key.
+
+```js
+import { useE2ESDKClient } from '@socialgouv/e2esdk-react'
+
+const client = useE2ESDKClient()
+
+// the encryption key fingerpint, ex: secret-database
+const keychainFingerprint = await client.findKeyByPurpose('secret-database')?.keychainFingerprint
+
+const customers = await fetch('/api/customers', {
+  method: 'GET',
+})
+  .then(r => r.json())
+  .then(collection => {
+    // decrypt the field in each row
+    return collection.data.map(async customer => {
+      // if data have been encrypted, decrypt it. if not, use cleartext value if any
+      const firstName = await (customer.firstName_encrypted
+        ? client.decrypt(customer.firstName_encrypted, keychainFingerprint)
+        : customer.firstName)
+      return {
+        ...customer,
+        firstName,
+      }
+    })
+  })
+
+console.log(customers)
+```
+
+> :bulb: In real life, you'll add TypeScript, Zod validation and error management (see examples)
+
+## Write encrypted data
+
+This is how you could encrypt some of your fields and POST encrypted data to your API:
+
+```js
+import { useE2ESDKClient } from '@socialgouv/e2esdk-react'
+
+const client = useE2ESDKClient()
+
+const firstName = 'Uma'
+const lastName = 'Thurman'
+
+// this key name, ex: secret-database
+const keychainFingerprint = await client.findKeyByPurpose('secret-database')?.keychainFingerprint
+
+// encrypt values
+const firstName_encrypted = await client.encrypt(firstName, keychainFingerprint)
+const lastName_encrypted = await client.encrypt(lastName, keychainFingerprint)
+
+// POST encrypted data to your API
+await fetch(API_URL, {
+  method: 'POST',
+  body: JSON.stringify({
+    firstName_encrypted,
+    lastName_encrypted,
+  }),
+})
+```
+
+Be aware that if other users needs to decrypt the data, you need to share them the key (see below)
+
+## Key sharing
+
+As `e2esdk` only act on your client-side application, if you want to share encrypted data with other users, you need to explicitly send them a shared decryption key in the SDK context.
+
+```js
+const client = useE2ESDKClient()
+
+// this key name, ex: secret-database
+const keychainFingerprint = await client.findKeyByPurpose('secret-database')?.keychainFingerprint
+
+// fetch recipient identity
+const recipientIdentity = await client.getUserIdentity('some-user-uuid')
+
+// share key to recipient
+await client.shareKey(keychainFingerprint, recipientIdentity)
+```
+
+There is no delay or confirmation, if the user is connected, its client-side application will receive the key and will be able to encrypt/decrypt instantly.
+
+> Both users must have already called `client.signup` to be able to exchange keys.
+
+## Wipe the clear-text
+
+Regulary wipe clear-text data from your DB, ex:
+
+```sql
+UPDATE table SET firstName=NULL WHERE firstName_encrypted is not NULL;
+```
