How to use this algorithm as the signature in (Razorpay )payment gateway integration?
I'm not familiar with Razorpay, but checking it quickly, I suspect what you require may be for payment verification? If so, I think you would probably need crypto.subtle.sign for an HMAC signature using SHA-256, but I've not had occasion to use that, so I can't really help.
