Specifies the hash algorithm to use when creating a digital signature.

```python

from nutrient_sdk import SignatureHashAlgorithm

```

## Values

| Name                            | Value | Description                                              |
| ------------------------------- | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| `SignatureHashAlgorithm.SHA256` | `1`   | SHA-256 hash algorithm. This is the recommended default. |
| `SignatureHashAlgorithm.SHA512` | `2`   | SHA-512 hash algorithm.                                  |
| `SignatureHashAlgorithm.SHA384` | `4`   | SHA-384 hash algorithm.                                  |

## Usage Example

```python

from nutrient_sdk import SignatureHashAlgorithm

# Access enum values

value = SignatureHashAlgorithm.SHA256
print(f"Value: {value}")  # Output: Value: SignatureHashAlgorithm.SHA256

print(f"Integer value: {value.value}")  # Output: Integer value: 1

```
