Sets the state of a KMS key to disabled. This change temporarily prevents use of the KMS key for cryptographic operations.
For more information about how key state affects the use of a KMS key, see Key states of KMS keys in the Key Management Service Developer Guide.
The KMS key that you use for this operation must be in a compatible key state. For details, see Key states of KMS keys 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:DisableKey (key policy)
Related operations: EnableKey
Eventual consistency: The KMS API follows an eventual consistency model. For more information, see KMS eventual consistency.
For .NET Core this operation is only available in asynchronous form. Please refer to DisableKeyAsync.

| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| 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. |
| NotFoundException | The request was rejected because the specified entity or resource could not be found. |
The following example disables the specified KMS key.
var client = new AmazonKeyManagementServiceClient();
var response = client.DisableKey(new DisableKeyRequest
{
KeyId = "1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab" // The identifier of the KMS key to disable. You can use the key ID or the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the KMS key.
