update-server-certificate¶

Description¶

Updates the name and/or the path of the specified server certificate stored in IAM.

For more information about working with server certificates, see Working with server certificates in the IAM User Guide . This topic also includes a list of Amazon Web Services services that can use the server certificates that you manage with IAM.

Warning

You should understand the implications of changing a server certificate’s path or name. For more information, see Renaming a server certificate in the IAM User Guide .

Note

The person making the request (the principal), must have permission to change the server certificate with the old name and the new name. For example, to change the certificate named ProductionCert to ProdCert , the principal must have a policy that allows them to update both certificates. If the principal has permission to update the ProductionCert group, but not the ProdCert certificate, then the update fails. For more information about permissions, see Access management in the IAM User Guide .

Synopsis¶

  update-server-certificate
--server-certificate-name <value>
[--new-path <value>]
[--new-server-certificate-name <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--server-certificate-name (string)

The name of the server certificate that you want to update.

This parameter allows (through its regex pattern ) a string of characters consisting of upper and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces. You can also include any of the following characters: _+=,.@-

--new-path (string)

The new path for the server certificate. Include this only if you are updating the server certificate’s path.

This parameter allows (through its regex pattern ) a string of characters consisting of either a forward slash (/) by itself or a string that must begin and end with forward slashes. In addition, it can contain any ASCII character from the ! (\u0021 ) through the DEL character (\u007F ), including most punctuation characters, digits, and upper and lowercased letters.

--new-server-certificate-name (string)

The new name for the server certificate. Include this only if you are updating the server certificate’s name. The name of the certificate cannot contain any spaces.

This parameter allows (through its regex pattern ) a string of characters consisting of upper and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces. You can also include any of the following characters: _+=,.@-

--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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To change the path or name of a server certificate in your AWS account

The following update-server-certificate command changes the name of the certificate from myServerCertificate to myUpdatedServerCertificate. It also changes the path to /cloudfront/ so that it can be accessed by the Amazon CloudFront service. This command produces no output. You can see the results of the update by running the list-server-certificates command.

aws-iam update-server-certificate --server-certificate-name myServerCertificate --new-server-certificate-name myUpdatedServerCertificate --new-path /cloudfront/

For more information, see Creating, Uploading, and Deleting Server Certificates in the IAM Users Guide.
