AWS SDK for PHP 3.x

Service ID: acm-pca

Version: 2017-08-22

This page describes the parameters and results for the operations of the AWS Certificate Manager Private Certificate Authority (2017-08-22), and shows how to use the Aws\ACMPCA\ACMPCAClient object to call the described operations. This documentation is specific to the 2017-08-22 API version of the service.

Operation Summary

Each of the following operations can be created from a client using $client->getCommand('CommandName'), where "CommandName" is the name of one of the following operations. Note: a command is a value that encapsulates an operation and the parameters used to create an HTTP request.

You can also create and send a command immediately using the magic methods available on a client object: $client->commandName(/* parameters */). You can send the command asynchronously (returning a promise) by appending the word "Async" to the operation name: $client->commandNameAsync(/* parameters */).

Paginators

Paginators handle automatically iterating over paginated API results. Paginators are associated with specific API operations, and they accept the parameters that the corresponding API operation accepts. You can get a paginator from a client class using getPaginator($paginatorName, $operationParameters). This client supports the following paginators:

ListCertificateAuthorities
ListPermissions
ListTags

Waiters

Waiters allow you to poll a resource until it enters into a desired state. A waiter has a name used to describe what it does, and is associated with an API operation. When creating a waiter, you can provide the API operation parameters associated with the corresponding operation. Waiters can be accessed using the getWaiter($waiterName, $operationParameters) method of a client object. This client supports the following waiters:

Waiter name	API Operation	Delay	Max Attempts
CertificateAuthorityCSRCreated	GetCertificateAuthorityCsr	3	60
CertificateIssued	GetCertificate	3	60
AuditReportCreated	DescribeCertificateAuthorityAuditReport	3	60

Operations

CreateCertificateAuthority

$result = $client->createCertificateAuthority([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createCertificateAuthorityAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates a root or subordinate private certificate authority (CA). You must specify the CA configuration, an optional configuration for Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) and/or a certificate revocation list (CRL), the CA type, and an optional idempotency token to avoid accidental creation of multiple CAs. The CA configuration specifies the name of the algorithm and key size to be used to create the CA private key, the type of signing algorithm that the CA uses, and X.500 subject information. The OCSP configuration can optionally specify a custom URL for the OCSP responder. The CRL configuration specifies the CRL expiration period in days (the validity period of the CRL), the Amazon S3 bucket that will contain the CRL, and a CNAME alias for the S3 bucket that is included in certificates issued by the CA. If successful, this action returns the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the CA.

Both Amazon Web Services Private CA and the IAM principal must have permission to write to the S3 bucket that you specify. If the IAM principal making the call does not have permission to write to the bucket, then an exception is thrown. For more information, see Access policies for CRLs in Amazon S3.

Amazon Web Services Private CA assets that are stored in Amazon S3 can be protected with encryption. For more information, see Encrypting Your CRLs.

Parameter Details

Members

CertificateAuthorityConfiguration

Required: Yes
Type: CertificateAuthorityConfiguration structure

Name and bit size of the private key algorithm, the name of the signing algorithm, and X.500 certificate subject information.

CertificateAuthorityType

Required: Yes
Type: string

The type of the certificate authority.

IdempotencyToken

Type: string

Custom string that can be used to distinguish between calls to the CreateCertificateAuthority action. Idempotency tokens for CreateCertificateAuthority time out after five minutes. Therefore, if you call CreateCertificateAuthority multiple times with the same idempotency token within five minutes, Amazon Web Services Private CA recognizes that you are requesting only certificate authority and will issue only one. If you change the idempotency token for each call, Amazon Web Services Private CA recognizes that you are requesting multiple certificate authorities.

KeyStorageSecurityStandard

Type: string

Specifies a cryptographic key management compliance standard used for handling CA keys.

Default: FIPS_140_2_LEVEL_3_OR_HIGHER

Some Amazon Web Services Regions do not support the default. When creating a CA in these Regions, you must provide FIPS_140_2_LEVEL_2_OR_HIGHER as the argument for KeyStorageSecurityStandard. Failure to do this results in an InvalidArgsException with the message, "A certificate authority cannot be created in this region with the specified security standard."

For information about security standard support in various Regions, see Storage and security compliance of Amazon Web Services Private CA private keys.

RevocationConfiguration

Type: RevocationConfiguration structure

Contains information to enable Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) support, to enable a certificate revocation list (CRL), to enable both, or to enable neither. The default is for both certificate validation mechanisms to be disabled.

The following requirements apply to revocation configurations.

A configuration disabling CRLs or OCSP must contain only the Enabled=False parameter, and will fail if other parameters such as CustomCname or ExpirationInDays are included.
In a CRL configuration, the S3BucketName parameter must conform to Amazon S3 bucket naming rules.
A configuration containing a custom Canonical Name (CNAME) parameter for CRLs or OCSP must conform to RFC2396 restrictions on the use of special characters in a CNAME.
In a CRL or OCSP configuration, the value of a CNAME parameter must not include a protocol prefix such as "http://" or "https://".

For more information, see the OcspConfiguration and CrlConfiguration types.

Tags

Type: Array of Tag structures

Key-value pairs that will be attached to the new private CA. You can associate up to 50 tags with a private CA. For information using tags with IAM to manage permissions, see Controlling Access Using IAM Tags.

UsageMode

Type: string

Specifies whether the CA issues general-purpose certificates that typically require a revocation mechanism, or short-lived certificates that may optionally omit revocation because they expire quickly. Short-lived certificate validity is limited to seven days.

The default value is GENERAL_PURPOSE.

CreatePermission

$result = $client->createPermission([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createPermissionAsync([/* ... */]);

Grants one or more permissions on a private CA to the Certificate Manager (ACM) service principal (acm.amazonaws.com). These permissions allow ACM to issue and renew ACM certificates that reside in the same Amazon Web Services account as the CA.

You can list current permissions with the ListPermissions action and revoke them with the DeletePermission action.

About Permissions

If the private CA and the certificates it issues reside in the same account, you can use CreatePermission to grant permissions for ACM to carry out automatic certificate renewals.
For automatic certificate renewal to succeed, the ACM service principal needs permissions to create, retrieve, and list certificates.
If the private CA and the ACM certificates reside in different accounts, then permissions cannot be used to enable automatic renewals. Instead, the ACM certificate owner must set up a resource-based policy to enable cross-account issuance and renewals. For more information, see Using a Resource Based Policy with Amazon Web Services Private CA.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createPermission([
    'Actions' => ['<string>', ...], // REQUIRED
    'CertificateAuthorityArn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

RequestFailedException:
The request has failed for an unspecified reason.

DeleteCertificateAuthority

$result = $client->deleteCertificateAuthority([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->deleteCertificateAuthorityAsync([/* ... */]);

Deletes a private certificate authority (CA). You must provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the private CA that you want to delete. You can find the ARN by calling the ListCertificateAuthorities action.

Deleting a CA will invalidate other CAs and certificates below it in your CA hierarchy.

Before you can delete a CA that you have created and activated, you must disable it. To do this, call the UpdateCertificateAuthority action and set the CertificateAuthorityStatus parameter to DISABLED.

Additionally, you can delete a CA if you are waiting for it to be created (that is, the status of the CA is CREATING). You can also delete it if the CA has been created but you haven't yet imported the signed certificate into Amazon Web Services Private CA (that is, the status of the CA is PENDING_CERTIFICATE).

When you successfully call DeleteCertificateAuthority, the CA's status changes to DELETED. However, the CA won't be permanently deleted until the restoration period has passed. By default, if you do not set the PermanentDeletionTimeInDays parameter, the CA remains restorable for 30 days. You can set the parameter from 7 to 30 days. The DescribeCertificateAuthority action returns the time remaining in the restoration window of a private CA in the DELETED state. To restore an eligible CA, call the RestoreCertificateAuthority action.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->deleteCertificateAuthority([
    'CertificateAuthorityArn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'PermanentDeletionTimeInDays' => <integer>,
]);

Parameter Details

Members

CertificateAuthorityArn

Required: Yes

InvalidStateException:
The state of the private CA does not allow this action to occur.

DeletePermission

$result = $client->deletePermission([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->deletePermissionAsync([/* ... */]);

Revokes permissions on a private CA granted to the Certificate Manager (ACM) service principal (acm.amazonaws.com).

These permissions allow ACM to issue and renew ACM certificates that reside in the same Amazon Web Services account as the CA. If you revoke these permissions, ACM will no longer renew the affected certificates automatically.

Permissions can be granted with the CreatePermission action and listed with the ListPermissions action.

About Permissions

If the private CA and the certificates it issues reside in the same account, you can use CreatePermission to grant permissions for ACM to carry out automatic certificate renewals.
For automatic certificate renewal to succeed, the ACM service principal needs permissions to create, retrieve, and list certificates.

RequestFailedException:
The request has failed for an unspecified reason.

DeletePolicy

$result = $client->deletePolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->deletePolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Deletes the resource-based policy attached to a private CA. Deletion will remove any access that the policy has granted. If there is no policy attached to the private CA, this action will return successful.

If you delete a policy that was applied through Amazon Web Services Resource Access Manager (RAM), the CA will be removed from all shares in which it was included.

The Certificate Manager Service Linked Role that the policy supports is not affected when you delete the policy.

The current policy can be shown with GetPolicy and updated with PutPolicy.

About Policies

A policy grants access on a private CA to an Amazon Web Services customer account, to Amazon Web Services Organizations, or to an Amazon Web Services Organizations unit. Policies are under the control of a CA administrator. For more information, see Using a Resource Based Policy with Amazon Web Services Private CA.
A policy permits a user of Certificate Manager (ACM) to issue ACM certificates signed by a CA in another account.
For ACM to manage automatic renewal of these certificates, the ACM user must configure a Service Linked Role (SLR). The SLR allows the ACM service to assume the identity of the user, subject to confirmation against the Amazon Web Services Private CA policy. For more information, see Using a Service Linked Role with ACM.
Updates made in Amazon Web Services Resource Manager (RAM) are reflected in policies. For more information, see Attach a Policy for Cross-Account Access.

InvalidArnException:
The requested Amazon Resource Name (ARN) does not refer to an existing resource.
InvalidStateException:
The state of the private CA does not allow this action to occur.
LockoutPreventedException:
The current action was prevented because it would lock the caller out from performing subsequent actions. Verify that the specified parameters would not result in the caller being denied access to the resource.
RequestFailedException:
The request has failed for an unspecified reason.
ResourceNotFoundException:
A resource such as a private CA, S3 bucket, certificate, audit report, or policy cannot be found.

DescribeCertificateAuthority

$result = $client->describeCertificateAuthority([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->describeCertificateAuthorityAsync([/* ... */]);

Lists information about your private certificate authority (CA) or one that has been shared with you. You specify the private CA on input by its ARN (Amazon Resource Name). The output contains the status of your CA. This can be any of the following:

CREATING - Amazon Web Services Private CA is creating your private certificate authority.
PENDING_CERTIFICATE - The certificate is pending. You must use your Amazon Web Services Private CA-hosted or on-premises root or subordinate CA to sign your private CA CSR and then import it into Amazon Web Services Private CA.
ACTIVE - Your private CA is active.
DISABLED - Your private CA has been disabled.
EXPIRED - Your private CA certificate has expired.
FAILED - Your private CA has failed. Your CA can fail because of problems such a network outage or back-end Amazon Web Services failure or other errors. A failed CA can never return to the pending state. You must create a new CA.
DELETED - Your private CA is within the restoration period, after which it is permanently deleted. The length of time remaining in the CA's restoration period is also included in this action's output.

Retrieves the resource-based policy attached to a private CA. If either the private CA resource or the policy cannot be found, this action returns a ResourceNotFoundException.

The policy can be attached or updated with PutPolicy and removed with DeletePolicy.

About Policies

A policy grants access on a private CA to an Amazon Web Services customer account, to Amazon Web Services Organizations, or to an Amazon Web Services Organizations unit. Policies are under the control of a CA administrator. For more information, see Using a Resource Based Policy with Amazon Web Services Private CA.
A policy permits a user of Certificate Manager (ACM) to issue ACM certificates signed by a CA in another account.
For ACM to manage automatic renewal of these certificates, the ACM user must configure a Service Linked Role (SLR). The SLR allows the ACM service to assume the identity of the user, subject to confirmation against the Amazon Web Services Private CA policy. For more information, see Using a Service Linked Role with ACM.
Updates made in Amazon Web Services Resource Manager (RAM) are reflected in policies. For more information, see Attach a Policy for Cross-Account Access.

ImportCertificateAuthorityCertificate

$result = $client->importCertificateAuthorityCertificate([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->importCertificateAuthorityCertificateAsync([/* ... */]);

Imports a signed private CA certificate into Amazon Web Services Private CA. This action is used when you are using a chain of trust whose root is located outside Amazon Web Services Private CA. Before you can call this action, the following preparations must in place:

In Amazon Web Services Private CA, call the CreateCertificateAuthority action to create the private CA that you plan to back with the imported certificate.
Call the GetCertificateAuthorityCsr action to generate a certificate signing request (CSR).
Sign the CSR using a root or intermediate CA hosted by either an on-premises PKI hierarchy or by a commercial CA.
Create a certificate chain and copy the signed certificate and the certificate chain to your working directory.

Amazon Web Services Private CA supports three scenarios for installing a CA certificate:

Installing a certificate for a root CA hosted by Amazon Web Services Private CA.
Installing a subordinate CA certificate whose parent authority is hosted by Amazon Web Services Private CA.
Installing a subordinate CA certificate whose parent authority is externally hosted.

The following additional requirements apply when you import a CA certificate.

Only a self-signed certificate can be imported as a root CA.
A self-signed certificate cannot be imported as a subordinate CA.
Your certificate chain must not include the private CA certificate that you are importing.
Your root CA must be the last certificate in your chain. The subordinate certificate, if any, that your root CA signed must be next to last. The subordinate certificate signed by the preceding subordinate CA must come next, and so on until your chain is built.
The chain must be PEM-encoded.
The maximum allowed size of a certificate is 32 KB.
The maximum allowed size of a certificate chain is 2 MB.

Enforcement of Critical Constraints

Amazon Web Services Private CA allows the following extensions to be marked critical in the imported CA certificate or chain.

Basic constraints (must be marked critical)
Subject alternative names
Key usage
Extended key usage
Authority key identifier
Subject key identifier
Issuer alternative name
Subject directory attributes
Subject information access
Certificate policies
Policy mappings
Inhibit anyPolicy

Amazon Web Services Private CA rejects the following extensions when they are marked critical in an imported CA certificate or chain.

Name constraints
Policy constraints
CRL distribution points
Authority information access
Freshest CRL
Any other extension

Parameter Details

Members

ApiPassthrough

Type: ApiPassthrough structure

Specifies X.509 certificate information to be included in the issued certificate. An APIPassthrough or APICSRPassthrough template variant must be selected, or else this parameter is ignored. For more information about using these templates, see Understanding Certificate Templates.

If conflicting or duplicate certificate information is supplied during certificate issuance, Amazon Web Services Private CA applies order of operation rules to determine what information is used.

CertificateAuthorityArn

Required: Yes
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) that was returned when you called CreateCertificateAuthority. This must be of the form:

arn:aws:acm-pca:region:account:certificate-authority/12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012

Csr

Required: Yes
Type: blob (string|resource|Psr\Http\Message\StreamInterface)

The certificate signing request (CSR) for the certificate you want to issue. As an example, you can use the following OpenSSL command to create the CSR and a 2048 bit RSA private key.

openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -days 365 -keyout private/test_cert_priv_key.pem -out csr/test_cert_.csr

If you have a configuration file, you can then use the following OpenSSL command. The usr_cert block in the configuration file contains your X509 version 3 extensions.

openssl req -new -config openssl_rsa.cnf -extensions usr_cert -newkey rsa:2048 -days 365 -keyout private/test_cert_priv_key.pem -out csr/test_cert_.csr

Note: A CSR must provide either a subject name or a subject alternative name or the request will be rejected.

IdempotencyToken

Type: string

Alphanumeric string that can be used to distinguish between calls to the IssueCertificate action. Idempotency tokens for IssueCertificate time out after five minutes. Therefore, if you call IssueCertificate multiple times with the same idempotency token within five minutes, Amazon Web Services Private CA recognizes that you are requesting only one certificate and will issue only one. If you change the idempotency token for each call, Amazon Web Services Private CA recognizes that you are requesting multiple certificates.

SigningAlgorithm

Required: Yes
Type: string

The name of the algorithm that will be used to sign the certificate to be issued.

This parameter should not be confused with the SigningAlgorithm parameter used to sign a CSR in the CreateCertificateAuthority action.

The specified signing algorithm family (RSA or ECDSA) must match the algorithm family of the CA's secret key.

TemplateArn

Type: string

Specifies a custom configuration template to use when issuing a certificate. If this parameter is not provided, Amazon Web Services Private CA defaults to the EndEntityCertificate/V1 template. For CA certificates, you should choose the shortest path length that meets your needs. The path length is indicated by the PathLenN portion of the ARN, where N is the CA depth.

Note: The CA depth configured on a subordinate CA certificate must not exceed the limit set by its parents in the CA hierarchy.

For a list of TemplateArn values supported by Amazon Web Services Private CA, see Understanding Certificate Templates.

Validity

Required: Yes
Type: Validity structure

Information describing the end of the validity period of the certificate. This parameter sets the “Not After” date for the certificate.

Certificate validity is the period of time during which a certificate is valid. Validity can be expressed as an explicit date and time when the certificate expires, or as a span of time after issuance, stated in days, months, or years. For more information, see Validity in RFC 5280.

This value is unaffected when ValidityNotBefore is also specified. For example, if Validity is set to 20 days in the future, the certificate will expire 20 days from issuance time regardless of the ValidityNotBefore value.

The end of the validity period configured on a certificate must not exceed the limit set on its parents in the CA hierarchy.

ValidityNotBefore

Type: Validity structure

Information describing the start of the validity period of the certificate. This parameter sets the “Not Before" date for the certificate.

By default, when issuing a certificate, Amazon Web Services Private CA sets the "Not Before" date to the issuance time minus 60 minutes. This compensates for clock inconsistencies across computer systems. The ValidityNotBefore parameter can be used to customize the “Not Before” value.

Unlike the Validity parameter, the ValidityNotBefore parameter is optional.

The ValidityNotBefore value is expressed as an explicit date and time, using the Validity type value ABSOLUTE. For more information, see Validity in this API reference and Validity in RFC 5280.

CertificateArn

Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the issued certificate and the certificate serial number. This is of the form:

arn:aws:acm-pca:region:account:certificate-authority/12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012/certificate/286535153982981100925020015808220737245

Errors

LimitExceededException:
An Amazon Web Services Private CA quota has been exceeded. See the exception message returned to determine the quota that was exceeded.
ResourceNotFoundException:
A resource such as a private CA, S3 bucket, certificate, audit report, or policy cannot be found.
InvalidStateException:
The state of the private CA does not allow this action to occur.
InvalidArnException:
The requested Amazon Resource Name (ARN) does not refer to an existing resource.
InvalidArgsException:
One or more of the specified arguments was not valid.
MalformedCSRException:
The certificate signing request is invalid.

ListCertificateAuthorities

$result = $client->listCertificateAuthorities([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->listCertificateAuthoritiesAsync([/* ... */]);

Lists the private certificate authorities that you created by using the CreateCertificateAuthority action.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->listCertificateAuthorities([
    'MaxResults' => <integer>,
    'NextToken' => '<string>',
    'ResourceOwner' => 'SELF|OTHER_ACCOUNTS',
]);

Parameter Details

Members

MaxResults

Type: int

Use this parameter when paginating results to specify the maximum number of items to return in the response on each page. If additional items exist beyond the number you specify, the NextToken element is sent in the response. Use this NextToken value in a subsequent request to retrieve additional items.

NextToken

Type: string

Use this parameter when paginating results in a subsequent request after you receive a response with truncated results. Set it to the value of the NextToken parameter from the response you just received.

ResourceOwner

Type: string

Use this parameter to filter the returned set of certificate authorities based on their owner. The default is SELF.

CertificateAuthorities

Type: Array of CertificateAuthority structures

Summary information about each certificate authority you have created.

NextToken

Type: string

When the list is truncated, this value is present and should be used for the NextToken parameter in a subsequent pagination request.

Errors

InvalidNextTokenException:
The token specified in the NextToken argument is not valid. Use the token returned from your previous call to ListCertificateAuthorities.

ListPermissions

$result = $client->listPermissions([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->listPermissionsAsync([/* ... */]);

List all permissions on a private CA, if any, granted to the Certificate Manager (ACM) service principal (acm.amazonaws.com).

These permissions allow ACM to issue and renew ACM certificates that reside in the same Amazon Web Services account as the CA.

Permissions can be granted with the CreatePermission action and revoked with the DeletePermission action.

About Permissions

If the private CA and the certificates it issues reside in the same account, you can use CreatePermission to grant permissions for ACM to carry out automatic certificate renewals.
For automatic certificate renewal to succeed, the ACM service principal needs permissions to create, retrieve, and list certificates.
If the private CA and the ACM certificates reside in different accounts, then permissions cannot be used to enable automatic renewals. Instead, the ACM certificate owner must set up a resource-based policy to enable cross-account issuance and renewals. For more information, see Using a Resource Based Policy with Amazon Web Services Private CA.

PutPolicy

$result = $client->putPolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putPolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Attaches a resource-based policy to a private CA.

A policy can also be applied by sharing a private CA through Amazon Web Services Resource Access Manager (RAM). For more information, see Attach a Policy for Cross-Account Access.

The policy can be displayed with GetPolicy and removed with DeletePolicy.

About Policies

A policy grants access on a private CA to an Amazon Web Services customer account, to Amazon Web Services Organizations, or to an Amazon Web Services Organizations unit. Policies are under the control of a CA administrator. For more information, see Using a Resource Based Policy with Amazon Web Services Private CA.
A policy permits a user of Certificate Manager (ACM) to issue ACM certificates signed by a CA in another account.
For ACM to manage automatic renewal of these certificates, the ACM user must configure a Service Linked Role (SLR). The SLR allows the ACM service to assume the identity of the user, subject to confirmation against the Amazon Web Services Private CA policy. For more information, see Using a Service Linked Role with ACM.
Updates made in Amazon Web Services Resource Manager (RAM) are reflected in policies. For more information, see Attach a Policy for Cross-Account Access.

RestoreCertificateAuthority

$result = $client->restoreCertificateAuthority([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->restoreCertificateAuthorityAsync([/* ... */]);

Restores a certificate authority (CA) that is in the DELETED state. You can restore a CA during the period that you defined in the PermanentDeletionTimeInDays parameter of the DeleteCertificateAuthority action. Currently, you can specify 7 to 30 days. If you did not specify a PermanentDeletionTimeInDays value, by default you can restore the CA at any time in a 30 day period. You can check the time remaining in the restoration period of a private CA in the DELETED state by calling the DescribeCertificateAuthority or ListCertificateAuthorities actions. The status of a restored CA is set to its pre-deletion status when the RestoreCertificateAuthority action returns. To change its status to ACTIVE, call the UpdateCertificateAuthority action. If the private CA was in the PENDING_CERTIFICATE state at deletion, you must use the ImportCertificateAuthorityCertificate action to import a certificate authority into the private CA before it can be activated.

RevokeCertificate

$result = $client->revokeCertificate([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->revokeCertificateAsync([/* ... */]);

Revokes a certificate that was issued inside Amazon Web Services Private CA. If you enable a certificate revocation list (CRL) when you create or update your private CA, information about the revoked certificates will be included in the CRL. Amazon Web Services Private CA writes the CRL to an S3 bucket that you specify. A CRL is typically updated approximately 30 minutes after a certificate is revoked. If for any reason the CRL update fails, Amazon Web Services Private CA attempts makes further attempts every 15 minutes. With Amazon CloudWatch, you can create alarms for the metrics CRLGenerated and MisconfiguredCRLBucket. For more information, see Supported CloudWatch Metrics.

Amazon Web Services Private CA also writes revocation information to the audit report. For more information, see CreateCertificateAuthorityAuditReport.

You cannot revoke a root CA self-signed certificate.

TagCertificateAuthority

$result = $client->tagCertificateAuthority([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->tagCertificateAuthorityAsync([/* ... */]);

Adds one or more tags to your private CA. Tags are labels that you can use to identify and organize your Amazon Web Services resources. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value. You specify the private CA on input by its Amazon Resource Name (ARN). You specify the tag by using a key-value pair. You can apply a tag to just one private CA if you want to identify a specific characteristic of that CA, or you can apply the same tag to multiple private CAs if you want to filter for a common relationship among those CAs. To remove one or more tags, use the UntagCertificateAuthority action. Call the ListTags action to see what tags are associated with your CA.

To attach tags to a private CA during the creation procedure, a CA administrator must first associate an inline IAM policy with the CreateCertificateAuthority action and explicitly allow tagging. For more information, see Attaching tags to a CA at the time of creation.

CrlConfiguration

Description

Contains configuration information for a certificate revocation list (CRL). Your private certificate authority (CA) creates base CRLs. Delta CRLs are not supported. You can enable CRLs for your new or an existing private CA by setting the Enabled parameter to true. Your private CA writes CRLs to an S3 bucket that you specify in the S3BucketName parameter. You can hide the name of your bucket by specifying a value for the CustomCname parameter. Your private CA copies the CNAME or the S3 bucket name to the CRL Distribution Points extension of each certificate it issues. Your S3 bucket policy must give write permission to Amazon Web Services Private CA.

Amazon Web Services Private CA assets that are stored in Amazon S3 can be protected with encryption. For more information, see Encrypting Your CRLs.

Your private CA uses the value in the ExpirationInDays parameter to calculate the nextUpdate field in the CRL. The CRL is refreshed prior to a certificate's expiration date or when a certificate is revoked. When a certificate is revoked, it appears in the CRL until the certificate expires, and then in one additional CRL after expiration, and it always appears in the audit report.

A CRL is typically updated approximately 30 minutes after a certificate is revoked. If for any reason a CRL update fails, Amazon Web Services Private CA makes further attempts every 15 minutes.

CRLs contain the following fields:

Version: The current version number defined in RFC 5280 is V2. The integer value is 0x1.
Signature Algorithm: The name of the algorithm used to sign the CRL.
Issuer: The X.500 distinguished name of your private CA that issued the CRL.
Last Update: The issue date and time of this CRL.
Next Update: The day and time by which the next CRL will be issued.
Revoked Certificates: List of revoked certificates. Each list item contains the following information.
- Serial Number: The serial number, in hexadecimal format, of the revoked certificate.
- Revocation Date: Date and time the certificate was revoked.
- CRL Entry Extensions: Optional extensions for the CRL entry.
  - X509v3 CRL Reason Code: Reason the certificate was revoked.
CRL Extensions: Optional extensions for the CRL.
- X509v3 Authority Key Identifier: Identifies the public key associated with the private key used to sign the certificate.
- X509v3 CRL Number:: Decimal sequence number for the CRL.
Signature Algorithm: Algorithm used by your private CA to sign the CRL.
Signature Value: Signature computed over the CRL.

Certificate revocation lists created by Amazon Web Services Private CA are DER-encoded. You can use the following OpenSSL command to list a CRL.

openssl crl -inform DER -text -in crl_path -noout

For more information, see Planning a certificate revocation list (CRL) in the Amazon Web Services Private Certificate Authority User Guide

Members

CustomCname

Type: string

Name inserted into the certificate CRL Distribution Points extension that enables the use of an alias for the CRL distribution point. Use this value if you don't want the name of your S3 bucket to be public.

The content of a Canonical Name (CNAME) record must conform to RFC2396 restrictions on the use of special characters in URIs. Additionally, the value of the CNAME must not include a protocol prefix such as "http://" or "https://".

Enabled

Required: Yes
Type: boolean

Boolean value that specifies whether certificate revocation lists (CRLs) are enabled. You can use this value to enable certificate revocation for a new CA when you call the CreateCertificateAuthority action or for an existing CA when you call the UpdateCertificateAuthority action.

ExpirationInDays

Type: int

Validity period of the CRL in days.

S3BucketName

Type: string

Name of the S3 bucket that contains the CRL. If you do not provide a value for the CustomCname argument, the name of your S3 bucket is placed into the CRL Distribution Points extension of the issued certificate. You can change the name of your bucket by calling the UpdateCertificateAuthority operation. You must specify a bucket policy that allows Amazon Web Services Private CA to write the CRL to your bucket.

The S3BucketName parameter must conform to the S3 bucket naming rules.

S3ObjectAcl

Type: string

Determines whether the CRL will be publicly readable or privately held in the CRL Amazon S3 bucket. If you choose PUBLIC_READ, the CRL will be accessible over the public internet. If you choose BUCKET_OWNER_FULL_CONTROL, only the owner of the CRL S3 bucket can access the CRL, and your PKI clients may need an alternative method of access.

If no value is specified, the default is PUBLIC_READ.

Note: This default can cause CA creation to fail in some circumstances. If you have have enabled the Block Public Access (BPA) feature in your S3 account, then you must specify the value of this parameter as BUCKET_OWNER_FULL_CONTROL, and not doing so results in an error. If you have disabled BPA in S3, then you can specify either BUCKET_OWNER_FULL_CONTROL or PUBLIC_READ as the value.

For more information, see Blocking public access to the S3 bucket.
