CreateKey
These examples show AWS CloudTrail log entries for the CreateKey operation.
A CreateKey
log entry can result from a CreateKey
request or the
CreateKey
operation for a ReplicateKey request.
The following example shows an CloudTrail log entry for a CreateKey operation that creates a symmetric encryption KMS key. For information about creating KMS keys, see Create a KMS key.
