update-certificate-authority¶

Description¶

Updates the status or configuration of a private certificate authority (CA). Your private CA must be in the ACTIVE or DISABLED state before you can update it. You can disable a private CA that is in the ACTIVE state or make a CA that is in the DISABLED state active again.

Synopsis¶

  update-certificate-authority
--certificate-authority-arn <value>
[--revocation-configuration <value>]
[--status <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
[--cli-auto-prompt <value>]

Options¶

--certificate-authority-arn (string)

Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the private CA that issued the certificate to be revoked. This must be of the form:

``arn:aws:acm-pca:region :account :certificate-authority/12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012 ``

--revocation-configuration (structure)

Revocation information for your private CA.

CrlConfiguration -> (structure)

Configuration of the certificate revocation list (CRL), if any, maintained by your private CA.

Enabled -> (boolean)

Boolean value that specifies whether certificate revocation lists (CRLs) are enabled. You can use this value to enable certificate revocation for a new CA when you call the CreateCertificateAuthority action or for an existing CA when you call the UpdateCertificateAuthority action.

ExpirationInDays -> (integer)

Number of days until a certificate expires.

CustomCname -> (string)

Name inserted into the certificate CRL Distribution Points extension that enables the use of an alias for the CRL distribution point. Use this value if you don’t want the name of your S3 bucket to be public.

S3BucketName -> (string)

Name of the S3 bucket that contains the CRL. If you do not provide a value for the CustomCname argument, the name of your S3 bucket is placed into the CRL Distribution Points extension of the issued certificate. You can change the name of your bucket by calling the UpdateCertificateAuthority action. You must specify a bucket policy that allows ACM Private CA to write the CRL to your bucket.

Shorthand Syntax:

CrlConfiguration={Enabled=boolean,ExpirationInDays=integer,CustomCname=string,S3BucketName=string}

JSON Syntax:

{
  "CrlConfiguration": {
    "Enabled": true|false,
    "ExpirationInDays": integer,
    "CustomCname": "string",
    "S3BucketName": "string"
  }
}

--status (string)

Status of your private CA.

Possible values:

CREATING

PENDING_CERTIFICATE

ACTIVE

DELETED

DISABLED

EXPIRED

FAILED

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean) Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

To update the configuration of your private certificate authority

The following update-certificate-authority command updates the status and configuration of the private CA identified by the ARN.

aws acm-pca update-certificate-authority --certificate-authority-arn arn:aws:acm-pca:us-west-2:123456789012:certificate-authority/12345678-1234-1234-1234-1232456789012 --revocation-configuration file://C:\revoke_config.txt --status "DISABLED"
