cancel-key-deletion

Description

Cancels the deletion of a KMS key. When this operation succeeds, the key state of the KMS key is Disabled . To enable the KMS key, use EnableKey .

For more information about scheduling and canceling deletion of a KMS key, see Deleting 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:CancelKeyDeletion (key policy)

Related operations : ScheduleKeyDeletion

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  cancel-key-deletion
--key-id <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--key-id (string)

Identifies the KMS key whose deletion is being canceled.

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 .

--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 cancel the scheduled deletion of a customer managed KMS key

The following cancel-key-deletion example cancels the scheduled deletion of a customer managed KMS key.

aws kms cancel-key-deletion \
    --key-id 1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab

Output:

{
    "KeyId": "arn:aws:kms:us-west-2:123456789012:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab"
}

When the cancel-key-deletion command succeeds, the scheduled deletion is canceled. However, the key state of the KMS key is Disabled, so you can’t use the KMS key in cryptographic operations. To restore its functionality, use the enable-key command .

For more information, see Scheduling and canceling key deletion in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide.

Output

KeyId -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (key ARN ) of the KMS key whose deletion is canceled.
