Synopsis

Calls the AWS Key Management Service PutKeyPolicy API operation.

Syntax

Write-KMSKeyPolicy
-KeyId <String>
-BypassPolicyLockoutSafetyCheck <Boolean>
-Policy <String>
-PolicyName <String>
-Select <String>
-PassThru <SwitchParameter>
-Force <SwitchParameter>
-ClientConfig <AmazonKeyManagementServiceConfig>

Description

Attaches a key policy to the specified KMS key. For more information about key policies, see Key Policies in the Key Management Service Developer Guide. For help writing and formatting a JSON policy document, see the IAM JSON Policy Reference in the Identity and Access Management User Guide. For examples of adding a key policy in multiple programming languages, see Setting a key policy in the Key Management Service Developer Guide. Cross-account use: No. You cannot perform this operation on a KMS key in a different Amazon Web Services account. Required permissions: kms:PutKeyPolicy (key policy) Related operations: GetKeyPolicyEventual consistency: The KMS API follows an eventual consistency model. For more information, see KMS eventual consistency.

Parameters

-BypassPolicyLockoutSafetyCheck <Boolean>
Skips ("bypasses") the key policy lockout safety check. The default value is false.Setting this value to true increases the risk that the KMS key becomes unmanageable. Do not set this value to true indiscriminately.For more information, see Default key policy in the Key Management Service Developer Guide.Use this parameter only when you intend to prevent the principal that is making the request from making a subsequent PutKeyPolicy request on the KMS key.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
Amazon.PowerShell.Cmdlets.KMS.AmazonKeyManagementServiceClientCmdlet.ClientConfig
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
This parameter overrides confirmation prompts to force the cmdlet to continue its operation. This parameter should always be used with caution.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-KeyId <String>
Sets the key policy on the specified KMS key.Specify the key ID or key ARN of the KMS key.For example:
  • Key ID: 1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab
  • Key ARN: arn:aws:kms:us-east-2:111122223333:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab
To get the key ID and key ARN for a KMS key, use ListKeys or DescribeKey.
Required?True
Position?1
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-PassThru <SwitchParameter>
Changes the cmdlet behavior to return the value passed to the KeyId parameter. The -PassThru parameter is deprecated, use -Select '^KeyId' instead. This parameter will be removed in a future version.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Policy <String>
The key policy to attach to the KMS key.The key policy must meet the following criteria:
  • The key policy must allow the calling principal to make a subsequent PutKeyPolicy request on the KMS key. This reduces the risk that the KMS key becomes unmanageable. For more information, see Default key policy in the Key Management Service Developer Guide. (To omit this condition, set BypassPolicyLockoutSafetyCheck to true.)
  • Each statement in the key policy must contain one or more principals. The principals in the key policy must exist and be visible to KMS. When you create a new Amazon Web Services principal, you might need to enforce a delay before including the new principal in a key policy because the new principal might not be immediately visible to KMS. For more information, see Changes that I make are not always immediately visible in the Amazon Web Services Identity and Access Management User Guide.
A key policy document can include only the following characters:
  • Printable ASCII characters from the space character (\u0020) through the end of the ASCII character range.
  • Printable characters in the Basic Latin and Latin-1 Supplement character set (through \u00FF).
  • The tab (\u0009), line feed (\u000A), and carriage return (\u000D) special characters
For information about key policies, see Key policies in KMS in the Key Management Service Developer Guide.For help writing and formatting a JSON policy document, see the IAM JSON Policy Reference in the Identity and Access Management User Guide.
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-PolicyName <String>
The name of the key policy. If no policy name is specified, the default value is default. The only valid value is default.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The cmdlet doesn't have a return value by default. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.KeyManagementService.Model.PutKeyPolicyResponse). Specifying -Select '^ParameterName' will result in the cmdlet returning the selected cmdlet parameter value.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)

Common Credential and Region Parameters

-AccessKey <String>
The AWS access key for the user account. This can be a temporary access key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesAK
-Credential <AWSCredentials>
An AWSCredentials object instance containing access and secret key information, and optionally a token for session-based credentials.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-EndpointUrl <String>
The endpoint to make the call against.Note: This parameter is primarily for internal AWS use and is not required/should not be specified for normal usage. The cmdlets normally determine which endpoint to call based on the region specified to the -Region parameter or set as default in the shell (via Set-DefaultAWSRegion). Only specify this parameter if you must direct the call to a specific custom endpoint.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-NetworkCredential <PSCredential>
Used with SAML-based authentication when ProfileName references a SAML role profile. Contains the network credentials to be supplied during authentication with the configured identity provider's endpoint. This parameter is not required if the user's default network identity can or should be used during authentication.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-ProfileLocation <String>
Used to specify the name and location of the ini-format credential file (shared with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs)If this optional parameter is omitted this cmdlet will search the encrypted credential file used by the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio first. If the profile is not found then the cmdlet will search in the ini-format credential file at the default location: (user's home directory)\.aws\credentials.If this parameter is specified then this cmdlet will only search the ini-format credential file at the location given.As the current folder can vary in a shell or during script execution it is advised that you use specify a fully qualified path instead of a relative path.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesAWSProfilesLocation, ProfilesLocation
-ProfileName <String>
The user-defined name of an AWS credentials or SAML-based role profile containing credential information. The profile is expected to be found in the secure credential file shared with the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio. You can also specify the name of a profile stored in the .ini-format credential file used with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesStoredCredentials, AWSProfileName
-Region <Object>
The system name of an AWS region or an AWSRegion instance. This governs the endpoint that will be used when calling service operations. Note that the AWS resources referenced in a call are usually region-specific.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesRegionToCall
-SecretKey <String>
The AWS secret key for the user account. This can be a temporary secret key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.

Outputs

This cmdlet does not generate any output.The service response (type Amazon.KeyManagementService.Model.PutKeyPolicyResponse) can be referenced from properties attached to the cmdlet entry in the $AWSHistory stack.
