Instance Attribute Details

#grant_tokens ⇒ Array<String>

A list of grant tokens.

For more information, see Grant Tokens in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide.

Returns:

  • (Array<String>) —

    A list of grant tokens.

#key_id ⇒ String

Describes the specified customer master key (CMK).

If you specify a predefined AWS alias (an AWS alias with no key ID), KMS associates the alias with an AWS managed CMK and returns its KeyId and Arn in the response.

To specify a CMK, use its key ID, Amazon Resource Name (ARN), alias name, or alias ARN. When using an alias name, prefix it with "alias/". To specify a CMK in a different AWS account, you must use the key ARN or alias ARN.

For example:

  • Key ID: 1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab

  • Key ARN: arn:aws:kms:us-east-2:111122223333:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab

  • Alias name: alias/ExampleAlias

  • Alias ARN: arn:aws:kms:us-east-2:111122223333:alias/ExampleAlias

To get the key ID and key ARN for a CMK, use ListKeys or DescribeKey. To get the alias name and alias ARN, use ListAliases.

Returns:

  • (String) —

    Describes the specified customer master key (CMK).
