Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

DeleteCertificateAuthority

The following Java sample shows how to use the DeleteCertificateAuthority operation.

This operation deletes the private certificate authority (CA) that you created using the CreateCertificateAuthority operation. The DeleteCertificateAuthority operation requires that you provide an ARN for the CA to be deleted. You can find the ARN by calling the ListCertificateAuthorities operation. You can delete the private CA immediately if its status is CREATING or PENDING_CERTIFICATE. If you have already imported the certificate, however, you cannot delete it immediately. You must first disable the CA by calling the UpdateCertificateAuthority operation and set the Status parameter to DISABLED. You can then use the PermanentDeletionTimeInDays parameter in the DeleteCertificateAuthority operation to specify the number of days, from 7 to 30. During that period the private CA can be restored to disabled status. By default, if you do not set the PermanentDeletionTimeInDays parameter, the restoration period is 30 days. After this period expires, the private CA is permanently deleted and cannot be restored. For more information, see Restore a CA.

For a Java example that shows you how to use the RestoreCertificateAuthority operation, see RestoreCertificateAuthority.
