# KeyAgreementSpi Added in[API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#ApiLevels) # KeyAgreementSpi ``` abstract class KeyAgreementSpi ``` |---|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | [kotlin.Any](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-any/index.html) || | ↳ | [javax.crypto.KeyAgreementSpi](https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/javax/crypto/KeyAgreementSpi#) | This class defines the*Service Provider Interface* (**SPI** ) for the`KeyAgreement`class. All the abstract methods in this class must be implemented by each cryptographic service provider who wishes to supply the implementation of a particular key agreement algorithm. The keys involved in establishing a shared secret are created by one of the key generators (`KeyPairGenerator`or`KeyGenerator`), a`KeyFactory`, or as a result from an intermediate phase of the key agreement protocol ([engineDoPhase](https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/javax/crypto/KeyAgreementSpi#engineDoPhase(java.security.Key,%20kotlin.Boolean))). For each of the correspondents in the key exchange,`engineDoPhase`needs to be called. For example, if the key exchange is with one other party,`engineDoPhase`needs to be called once, with the`lastPhase`flag set to`true`. If the key exchange is with two other parties,`engineDoPhase`needs to be called twice, the first time setting the`lastPhase`flag to`false`, and the second time setting it to`true`. There may be any number of parties involved in a key exchange. ## Summary | Public constructors || |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---| | [KeyAgreementSpi](https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/javax/crypto/KeyAgreementSpi#KeyAgreementSpi())`()`
