Synopsis
Calls the AWS Secrets Manager RotateSecret API operation.
Syntax
Invoke-SECSecretRotation-SecretId <String>-RotationRules_AutomaticallyAfterDay <Int64>-ClientRequestToken <String>-RotationLambdaARN <String>-Force <SwitchParameter>
Description
Configures and starts the asynchronous process of rotating this secret. If you include the configuration parameters, the operation sets those values for the secret and then immediately starts a rotation. If you do not include the configuration parameters, the operation starts a rotation with the values already stored in the secret. After the rotation completes, the protected service and its clients all use the new version of the secret.
This required configuration information includes the ARN of an AWS Lambda function and the time between scheduled rotations. The Lambda rotation function creates a new version of the secret and creates or updates the credentials on the protected service to match. After testing the new credentials, the function marks the new secret with the staging label
AWSCURRENT so that your clients all immediately begin to use the new version. For more information about rotating secrets and how to configure a Lambda function to rotate the secrets for your protected service, see Rotating Secrets in AWS Secrets Manager in the AWS Secrets Manager User Guide.
Secrets Manager schedules the next rotation when the previous one is complete. Secrets Manager schedules the date by adding the rotation interval (number of days) to the actual date of the last rotation. The service chooses the hour within that 24-hour date window randomly. The minute is also chosen somewhat randomly, but weighted towards the top of the hour and influenced by a variety of factors that help distribute load.
The rotation function must end with the versions of the secret in one of two states: - The
AWSPENDINGandAWSCURRENTstaging labels are attached to the same version of the secret, or - The
AWSPENDINGstaging label is not attached to any version of the secret.
AWSPENDING staging label is present but is not attached to the same version as AWSCURRENT then any later invocation of RotateSecret assumes that a previous rotation request is still in progress and returns an error. Minimum permissions To run this command, you must have the following permissions: - secretsmanager:RotateSecret
- lambda:InvokeFunction (on the function specified in the secret's metadata)
- To list the secrets in your account, use ListSecrets.
- To get the details for a version of a secret, use DescribeSecret.
- To create a new version of a secret, use CreateSecret.
- To attach staging labels to or remove staging labels from a version of a secret, use UpdateSecretVersionStage.
Parameters
-ClientRequestToken <String>
(Optional) Specifies a unique identifier for the new version of the secret that helps ensure idempotency. If you use the AWS CLI or one of the AWS SDK to call this operation, then you can leave this parameter empty. The CLI or SDK generates a random UUID for you and includes that in the request for this parameter. If you don't use the SDK and instead generate a raw HTTP request to the Secrets Manager service endpoint, then you must generate a
ClientRequestToken yourself for new versions and include that value in the request.You only need to specify your own value if you are implementing your own retry logic and want to ensure that a given secret is not created twice. We recommend that you generate a UUID-type value to ensure uniqueness within the specified secret. Secrets Manager uses this value to prevent the accidental creation of duplicate versions if there are failures and retries during the function's processing. This value becomes the VersionId of the new version. | Required? | False |
| Position? | Named |
| Accept pipeline input? | False |
-Force <SwitchParameter>
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? | False |
-RotationLambdaARN <String>
(Optional) Specifies the ARN of the Lambda function that can rotate the secret.
| Required? | False |
| Position? | Named |
| Accept pipeline input? | False |
-RotationRules_AutomaticallyAfterDay <Int64>
Specifies the number of days between automatic scheduled rotations of the secret.Secrets Manager schedules the next rotation when the previous one is complete. Secrets Manager schedules the date by adding the rotation interval (number of days) to the actual date of the last rotation. The service chooses the hour within that 24-hour date window randomly. The minute is also chosen somewhat randomly, but weighted towards the top of the hour and influenced by a variety of factors that help distribute load.
| Required? | False |
| Position? | Named |
| Accept pipeline input? | False |
-SecretId <String>
Specifies the secret that you want to rotate. You can specify either the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) or the friendly name of the secret.If you specify an ARN, we generally recommend that you specify a complete ARN. You can specify a partial ARN too—for example, if you don’t include the final hyphen and six random characters that Secrets Manager adds at the end of the ARN when you created the secret. A partial ARN match can work as long as it uniquely matches only one secret. However, if your secret has a name that ends in a hyphen followed by six characters (before Secrets Manager adds the hyphen and six characters to the ARN) and you try to use that as a partial ARN, then those characters cause Secrets Manager to assume that you’re specifying a complete ARN. This confusion can cause unexpected results. To avoid this situation, we recommend that you don’t create secret names that end with a hyphen followed by six characters.
| Required? | False |
| Position? | 1 |
| Accept pipeline input? | True (ByValue, ) |
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? | False |
-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? | False |
-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. Note that the encrypted credential file is not supported on all platforms. It will be skipped when searching for profiles on Windows Nano Server, Mac, and Linux platforms.
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? | False |
-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? | False |
-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? | False |
-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.
| Required? | False |
| Position? | Named |
| Accept pipeline input? | False |
-SessionToken <String>
The session token if the access and secret keys are temporary session-based
credentials.
| Required? | False |
| Position? | Named |
| Accept pipeline input? | False |
-Region <String>
The system name of the AWS region in which the operation should be invoked. For example, us-east-1, eu-west-1 etc.
| Required? | False |
| Position? | Named |
| Accept pipeline input? | False |
-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? | False |
Inputs
You can pipe a String object to this cmdlet for the SecretId parameter.
Outputs
This cmdlet returns a Amazon.SecretsManager.Model.RotateSecretResponse object containing multiple properties. The object can also be referenced from properties attached to the cmdlet entry in the $AWSHistory stack.
