AWS SDK Version 3 for .NET
API Reference

AWS services or capabilities described in AWS Documentation may vary by region/location. Click Getting Started with Amazon AWS to see specific differences applicable to the China (Beijing) Region.

Attaches a key policy to the specified KMS key.

For more information about key policies, see Key Policies in the Key Management Service Developer Guide. For help writing and formatting a JSON policy document, see the IAM JSON Policy Reference in the Identity and Access Management User Guide. For examples of adding a key policy in multiple programming languages, see Setting a key policy in the Key Management Service Developer Guide.

Cross-account use: No. You cannot perform this operation on a KMS key in a different Amazon Web Services account.

Required permissions: kms:PutKeyPolicy (key policy)

Related operations: GetKeyPolicy

Eventual consistency: The KMS API follows an eventual consistency model. For more information, see KMS eventual consistency.

Note:

This is an asynchronous operation using the standard naming convention for .NET 4.5 or higher. For .NET 3.5 the operation is implemented as a pair of methods using the standard naming convention of BeginPutKeyPolicy and EndPutKeyPolicy.

Namespace: Amazon.KeyManagementService
Assembly: AWSSDK.KeyManagementService.dll
Version: 3.x.y.z

Syntax

C#
public abstract Task<PutKeyPolicyResponse> PutKeyPolicyAsync(
         String keyId,
         String policy,
         String policyName,
         CancellationToken cancellationToken
)

Parameters

keyId
Type: System.String

Sets the key policy on the specified KMS key. Specify the key ID or key ARN of the KMS key. For example: Key ID: 1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab Key ARN: arn:aws:kms:us-east-2:111122223333:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab To get the key ID and key ARN for a KMS key, use ListKeys or DescribeKey.

policy
Type: System.String

The key policy to attach to the KMS key. The key policy must meet the following criteria: The key policy must allow the calling principal to make a subsequent PutKeyPolicy request on the KMS key. This reduces the risk that the KMS key becomes unmanageable. For more information, see Default key policy in the Key Management Service Developer Guide. (To omit this condition, set BypassPolicyLockoutSafetyCheck to true.) Each statement in the key policy must contain one or more principals. The principals in the key policy must exist and be visible to KMS. When you create a new Amazon Web Services principal, you might need to enforce a delay before including the new principal in a key policy because the new principal might not be immediately visible to KMS. For more information, see Changes that I make are not always immediately visible in the Amazon Web Services Identity and Access Management User Guide. A key policy document can include only the following characters: Printable ASCII characters from the space character (\u0020) through the end of the ASCII character range. Printable characters in the Basic Latin and Latin-1 Supplement character set (through \u00FF). The tab (\u0009), line feed (\u000A), and carriage return (\u000D) special characters For information about key policies, see Key policies in KMS in the Key Management Service Developer Guide.For help writing and formatting a JSON policy document, see the IAM JSON Policy Reference in the Identity and Access Management User Guide.

policyName
Type: System.String

The name of the key policy. If no policy name is specified, the default value is default. The only valid value is default.

cancellationToken
Type: System.Threading.CancellationToken

A cancellation token that can be used by other objects or threads to receive notice of cancellation.

Return Value


The response from the PutKeyPolicy service method, as returned by KeyManagementService.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
DependencyTimeoutException The system timed out while trying to fulfill the request. You can retry the request.
InvalidArnException The request was rejected because a specified ARN, or an ARN in a key policy, is not valid.
KMSInternalException The request was rejected because an internal exception occurred. The request can be retried.
KMSInvalidStateException The request was rejected because the state of the specified resource is not valid for this request. This exceptions means one of the following: The key state of the KMS key is not compatible with the operation. To find the key state, use the DescribeKey operation. For more information about which key states are compatible with each KMS operation, see Key states of KMS keys in the Key Management Service Developer Guide. For cryptographic operations on KMS keys in custom key stores, this exception represents a general failure with many possible causes. To identify the cause, see the error message that accompanies the exception.
LimitExceededException The request was rejected because a quota was exceeded. For more information, see Quotas in the Key Management Service Developer Guide.
MalformedPolicyDocumentException The request was rejected because the specified policy is not syntactically or semantically correct.
NotFoundException The request was rejected because the specified entity or resource could not be found.
UnsupportedOperationException The request was rejected because a specified parameter is not supported or a specified resource is not valid for this operation.
