AccessKey

class aws_cdk.aws_iam.AccessKey(scope, id, *, user, serial=None, status=None)

Bases: aws_cdk.core.Resource

Define a new IAM Access Key.

ExampleMetadata

infused

Example:

# Creates a new IAM user, access and secret keys, and stores the secret access key in a Secret.
user = iam.User(self, "User")
access_key = iam.AccessKey(self, "AccessKey", user=user)
secret_value = secretsmanager.SecretStringValueBeta1.from_token(access_key.secret_access_key.to_string())
secretsmanager.Secret(self, "Secret",
    secret_string_beta1=secret_value
)
Parameters

  • scope (Construct) –

  • id (str) –

  • user (IUser) – The IAM user this key will belong to. Changing this value will result in the access key being deleted and a new access key (with a different ID and secret value) being assigned to the new user.

  • serial (Union[int, float, None]) – A CloudFormation-specific value that signifies the access key should be replaced/rotated. This value can only be incremented. Incrementing this value will cause CloudFormation to replace the Access Key resource. Default: - No serial value

  • status (Optional[AccessKeyStatus]) – The status of the access key. An Active access key is allowed to be used to make API calls; An Inactive key cannot. Default: - The access key is active

Methods

apply_removal_policy(policy)

Apply the given removal policy to this resource.

The Removal Policy controls what happens to this resource when it stops being managed by CloudFormation, either because you’ve removed it from the CDK application or because you’ve made a change that requires the resource to be replaced.

The resource can be deleted (RemovalPolicy.DESTROY), or left in your AWS account for data recovery and cleanup later (RemovalPolicy.RETAIN).

Parameters

policy (RemovalPolicy) –

Return type

str

env

The environment this resource belongs to.

For resources that are created and managed by the CDK (generally, those created by creating new class instances like Role, Bucket, etc.), this is always the same as the environment of the stack they belong to; however, for imported resources (those obtained from static methods like fromRoleArn, fromBucketName, etc.), that might be different than the stack they were imported into.

Return type

ResourceEnvironment

node

The construct tree node associated with this construct.
