Classes

NameDescription
Class AccessDescription

Provides access information used by the authorityInfoAccess and subjectInfoAccess extensions described in RFC 5280.

Class AccessMethod

Describes the type and format of extension access. Only one of CustomObjectIdentifier or AccessMethodType may be provided. Providing both results in InvalidArgsException.

Class ACMPCAPaginatorFactory

Paginators for the ACMPCA service

Class ApiPassthrough

Contains X.509 certificate information to be placed in an issued certificate. An APIPassthrough or APICSRPassthrough template variant must be selected, or else this parameter is ignored.

If conflicting or duplicate certificate information is supplied from other sources, Amazon Web Services Private CA applies order of operation rules to determine what information is used.

Class ASN1Subject

Contains information about the certificate subject. The Subject field in the certificate identifies the entity that owns or controls the public key in the certificate. The entity can be a user, computer, device, or service. The Subject must contain an X.500 distinguished name (DN). A DN is a sequence of relative distinguished names (RDNs). The RDNs are separated by commas in the certificate.

Class CertificateAuthority

Contains information about your private certificate authority (CA). Your private CA can issue and revoke X.509 digital certificates. Digital certificates verify that the entity named in the certificate Subject field owns or controls the public key contained in the Subject Public Key Info field. Call the CreateCertificateAuthority action to create your private CA. You must then call the GetCertificateAuthorityCertificate action to retrieve a private CA certificate signing request (CSR). Sign the CSR with your Amazon Web Services Private CA-hosted or on-premises root or subordinate CA certificate. Call the ImportCertificateAuthorityCertificate action to import the signed certificate into Certificate Manager (ACM).

Class CertificateAuthorityConfiguration

Contains configuration information for your private certificate authority (CA). This includes information about the class of public key algorithm and the key pair that your private CA creates when it issues a certificate. It also includes the signature algorithm that it uses when issuing certificates, and its X.500 distinguished name. You must specify this information when you call the CreateCertificateAuthority action.

Class CertificateMismatchException

The certificate authority certificate you are importing does not comply with conditions specified in the certificate that signed it.

Class ConcurrentModificationException

A previous update to your private CA is still ongoing.

Class CreateCertificateAuthorityAuditReportRequest

Container for the parameters to the CreateCertificateAuthorityAuditReport operation. Creates an audit report that lists every time that your CA private key is used. The report is saved in the Amazon S3 bucket that you specify on input. The IssueCertificate and RevokeCertificate actions use the private key.

Both Amazon Web Services Private CA and the IAM principal must have permission to write to the S3 bucket that you specify. If the IAM principal making the call does not have permission to write to the bucket, then an exception is thrown. For more information, see Access policies for CRLs in Amazon S3.

Amazon Web Services Private CA assets that are stored in Amazon S3 can be protected with encryption. For more information, see Encrypting Your Audit Reports.

You can generate a maximum of one report every 30 minutes.

Class CreateCertificateAuthorityAuditReportResponse

This is the response object from the CreateCertificateAuthorityAuditReport operation.

Class CreateCertificateAuthorityRequest

Container for the parameters to the CreateCertificateAuthority operation. Creates a root or subordinate private certificate authority (CA). You must specify the CA configuration, an optional configuration for Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) and/or a certificate revocation list (CRL), the CA type, and an optional idempotency token to avoid accidental creation of multiple CAs. The CA configuration specifies the name of the algorithm and key size to be used to create the CA private key, the type of signing algorithm that the CA uses, and X.500 subject information. The OCSP configuration can optionally specify a custom URL for the OCSP responder. The CRL configuration specifies the CRL expiration period in days (the validity period of the CRL), the Amazon S3 bucket that will contain the CRL, and a CNAME alias for the S3 bucket that is included in certificates issued by the CA. If successful, this action returns the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the CA.

Both Amazon Web Services Private CA and the IAM principal must have permission to write to the S3 bucket that you specify. If the IAM principal making the call does not have permission to write to the bucket, then an exception is thrown. For more information, see Access policies for CRLs in Amazon S3.

Amazon Web Services Private CA assets that are stored in Amazon S3 can be protected with encryption. For more information, see Encrypting Your CRLs.

Class CreateCertificateAuthorityResponse

This is the response object from the CreateCertificateAuthority operation.

Class CreatePermissionRequest

Container for the parameters to the CreatePermission operation. Grants one or more permissions on a private CA to the Certificate Manager (ACM) service principal (acm.amazonaws.com). These permissions allow ACM to issue and renew ACM certificates that reside in the same Amazon Web Services account as the CA.

You can list current permissions with the ListPermissions action and revoke them with the DeletePermission action.

About Permissions

  • If the private CA and the certificates it issues reside in the same account, you can use CreatePermission to grant permissions for ACM to carry out automatic certificate renewals.

  • For automatic certificate renewal to succeed, the ACM service principal needs permissions to create, retrieve, and list certificates.

  • If the private CA and the ACM certificates reside in different accounts, then permissions cannot be used to enable automatic renewals. Instead, the ACM certificate owner must set up a resource-based policy to enable cross-account issuance and renewals. For more information, see Using a Resource Based Policy with Amazon Web Services Private CA.

Class CreatePermissionResponse

This is the response object from the CreatePermission operation.

Class CrlConfiguration

Contains configuration information for a certificate revocation list (CRL). Your private certificate authority (CA) creates base CRLs. Delta CRLs are not supported. You can enable CRLs for your new or an existing private CA by setting the Enabled parameter to true. Your private CA writes CRLs to an S3 bucket that you specify in the S3BucketName parameter. You can hide the name of your bucket by specifying a value for the CustomCname parameter. Your private CA by default copies the CNAME or the S3 bucket name to the CRL Distribution Points extension of each certificate it issues. If you want to configure this default behavior to be something different, you can set the CrlDistributionPointExtensionConfiguration parameter. Your S3 bucket policy must give write permission to Amazon Web Services Private CA.

Amazon Web Services Private CA assets that are stored in Amazon S3 can be protected with encryption. For more information, see Encrypting Your CRLs.

Your private CA uses the value in the ExpirationInDays parameter to calculate the nextUpdate field in the CRL. The CRL is refreshed prior to a certificate's expiration date or when a certificate is revoked. When a certificate is revoked, it appears in the CRL until the certificate expires, and then in one additional CRL after expiration, and it always appears in the audit report.

A CRL is typically updated approximately 30 minutes after a certificate is revoked. If for any reason a CRL update fails, Amazon Web Services Private CA makes further attempts every 15 minutes.

CRLs contain the following fields:

  • Version: The current version number defined in RFC 5280 is V2. The integer value is 0x1.

  • Signature Algorithm: The name of the algorithm used to sign the CRL.

  • Issuer: The X.500 distinguished name of your private CA that issued the CRL.

  • Last Update: The issue date and time of this CRL.

  • Next Update: The day and time by which the next CRL will be issued.

  • Revoked Certificates: List of revoked certificates. Each list item contains the following information.

    • Serial Number: The serial number, in hexadecimal format, of the revoked certificate.

    • Revocation Date: Date and time the certificate was revoked.

    • CRL Entry Extensions: Optional extensions for the CRL entry.

      • X509v3 CRL Reason Code: Reason the certificate was revoked.

  • CRL Extensions: Optional extensions for the CRL.

    • X509v3 Authority Key Identifier: Identifies the public key associated with the private key used to sign the certificate.

    • X509v3 CRL Number:: Decimal sequence number for the CRL.

  • Signature Algorithm: Algorithm used by your private CA to sign the CRL.

  • Signature Value: Signature computed over the CRL.

Certificate revocation lists created by Amazon Web Services Private CA are DER-encoded. You can use the following OpenSSL command to list a CRL.

openssl crl -inform DER -text -in crl_path -noout

For more information, see Planning a certificate revocation list (CRL) in the Amazon Web Services Private Certificate Authority User Guide

Class CrlDistributionPointExtensionConfiguration

Contains configuration information for the default behavior of the CRL Distribution Point (CDP) extension in certificates issued by your CA. This extension contains a link to download the CRL, so you can check whether a certificate has been revoked. To choose whether you want this extension omitted or not in certificates issued by your CA, you can set the OmitExtension parameter.

Class CsrExtensions

Describes the certificate extensions to be added to the certificate signing request (CSR).

Class CustomAttribute

Defines the X.500 relative distinguished name (RDN).

Class CustomExtension

Specifies the X.509 extension information for a certificate.

Extensions present in CustomExtensions follow the ApiPassthrough template rules.

Class DeleteCertificateAuthorityRequest

Container for the parameters to the DeleteCertificateAuthority operation. Deletes a private certificate authority (CA). You must provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the private CA that you want to delete. You can find the ARN by calling the ListCertificateAuthorities action.

Deleting a CA will invalidate other CAs and certificates below it in your CA hierarchy.

Before you can delete a CA that you have created and activated, you must disable it. To do this, call the UpdateCertificateAuthority action and set the CertificateAuthorityStatus parameter to DISABLED.

Additionally, you can delete a CA if you are waiting for it to be created (that is, the status of the CA is CREATING). You can also delete it if the CA has been created but you haven't yet imported the signed certificate into Amazon Web Services Private CA (that is, the status of the CA is PENDING_CERTIFICATE).

When you successfully call DeleteCertificateAuthority, the CA's status changes to DELETED. However, the CA won't be permanently deleted until the restoration period has passed. By default, if you do not set the PermanentDeletionTimeInDays parameter, the CA remains restorable for 30 days. You can set the parameter from 7 to 30 days. The DescribeCertificateAuthority action returns the time remaining in the restoration window of a private CA in the DELETED state. To restore an eligible CA, call the RestoreCertificateAuthority action.

Class DeleteCertificateAuthorityResponse

This is the response object from the DeleteCertificateAuthority operation.

Class DeletePermissionRequest

Container for the parameters to the DeletePermission operation. Revokes permissions on a private CA granted to the Certificate Manager (ACM) service principal (acm.amazonaws.com).

These permissions allow ACM to issue and renew ACM certificates that reside in the same Amazon Web Services account as the CA. If you revoke these permissions, ACM will no longer renew the affected certificates automatically.

Permissions can be granted with the CreatePermission action and listed with the ListPermissions action.

About Permissions

  • If the private CA and the certificates it issues reside in the same account, you can use CreatePermission to grant permissions for ACM to carry out automatic certificate renewals.

  • For automatic certificate renewal to succeed, the ACM service principal needs permissions to create, retrieve, and list certificates.

  • If the private CA and the ACM certificates reside in different accounts, then permissions cannot be used to enable automatic renewals. Instead, the ACM certificate owner must set up a resource-based policy to enable cross-account issuance and renewals. For more information, see Using a Resource Based Policy with Amazon Web Services Private CA.

Class DeletePermissionResponse

This is the response object from the DeletePermission operation.

Class DeletePolicyRequest

Container for the parameters to the DeletePolicy operation. Deletes the resource-based policy attached to a private CA. Deletion will remove any access that the policy has granted. If there is no policy attached to the private CA, this action will return successful.

If you delete a policy that was applied through Amazon Web Services Resource Access Manager (RAM), the CA will be removed from all shares in which it was included.

The Certificate Manager Service Linked Role that the policy supports is not affected when you delete the policy.

The current policy can be shown with GetPolicy and updated with PutPolicy.

About Policies

  • A policy grants access on a private CA to an Amazon Web Services customer account, to Amazon Web Services Organizations, or to an Amazon Web Services Organizations unit. Policies are under the control of a CA administrator. For more information, see Using a Resource Based Policy with Amazon Web Services Private CA.

  • A policy permits a user of Certificate Manager (ACM) to issue ACM certificates signed by a CA in another account.

  • For ACM to manage automatic renewal of these certificates, the ACM user must configure a Service Linked Role (SLR). The SLR allows the ACM service to assume the identity of the user, subject to confirmation against the Amazon Web Services Private CA policy. For more information, see Using a Service Linked Role with ACM.

  • Updates made in Amazon Web Services Resource Manager (RAM) are reflected in policies. For more information, see Attach a Policy for Cross-Account Access.

Class DeletePolicyResponse

This is the response object from the DeletePolicy operation.

Class DescribeCertificateAuthorityAuditReportRequest

Container for the parameters to the DescribeCertificateAuthorityAuditReport operation. Lists information about a specific audit report created by calling the CreateCertificateAuthorityAuditReport action.

Class DescribeCertificateAuthorityAuditReportResponse

This is the response object from the DescribeCertificateAuthorityAuditReport operation.

Class DescribeCertificateAuthorityRequest

Container for the parameters to the DescribeCertificateAuthority operation. Lists information about your private certificate authority (CA) or one that has been shared with you. You specify the private CA on input by its ARN (Amazon Resource Name). The output contains the status of your CA. This can be any of the following:

  • CREATING - Amazon Web Services Private CA is creating your private certificate authority.

  • PENDING_CERTIFICATE - The certificate is pending. You must use your Amazon Web Services Private CA-hosted or on-premises root or subordinate CA to sign your private CA CSR and then import it into Amazon Web Services Private CA.

  • ACTIVE - Your private CA is active.

  • DISABLED - Your private CA has been disabled.

  • EXPIRED - Your private CA certificate has expired.

  • FAILED - Your private CA has failed. Your CA can fail because of problems such a network outage or back-end Amazon Web Services failure or other errors. A failed CA can never return to the pending state. You must create a new CA.

  • DELETED - Your private CA is within the restoration period, after which it is permanently deleted. The length of time remaining in the CA's restoration period is also included in this action's output.

Class DescribeCertificateAuthorityResponse

This is the response object from the DescribeCertificateAuthority operation.

Class EdiPartyName

Describes an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) entity as described in as defined in Subject Alternative Name in RFC 5280.

Class ExtendedKeyUsage

Specifies additional purposes for which the certified public key may be used other than basic purposes indicated in the KeyUsage extension.

Class Extensions

Contains X.509 extension information for a certificate.

Class GeneralName

Describes an ASN.1 X.400 GeneralName as defined in RFC 5280. Only one of the following naming options should be provided. Providing more than one option results in an InvalidArgsException error.

Class GetCertificateAuthorityCertificateRequest

Container for the parameters to the GetCertificateAuthorityCertificate operation. Retrieves the certificate and certificate chain for your private certificate authority (CA) or one that has been shared with you. Both the certificate and the chain are base64 PEM-encoded. The chain does not include the CA certificate. Each certificate in the chain signs the one before it.

Class GetCertificateAuthorityCertificateResponse

This is the response object from the GetCertificateAuthorityCertificate operation.

Class GetCertificateAuthorityCsrRequest

Container for the parameters to the GetCertificateAuthorityCsr operation. Retrieves the certificate signing request (CSR) for your private certificate authority (CA). The CSR is created when you call the CreateCertificateAuthority action. Sign the CSR with your Amazon Web Services Private CA-hosted or on-premises root or subordinate CA. Then import the signed certificate back into Amazon Web Services Private CA by calling the ImportCertificateAuthorityCertificate action. The CSR is returned as a base64 PEM-encoded string.

Class GetCertificateAuthorityCsrResponse

This is the response object from the GetCertificateAuthorityCsr operation.

Class GetCertificateRequest

Container for the parameters to the GetCertificate operation. Retrieves a certificate from your private CA or one that has been shared with you. The ARN of the certificate is returned when you call the IssueCertificate action. You must specify both the ARN of your private CA and the ARN of the issued certificate when calling the GetCertificate action. You can retrieve the certificate if it is in the ISSUED state. You can call the CreateCertificateAuthorityAuditReport action to create a report that contains information about all of the certificates issued and revoked by your private CA.

Class GetCertificateResponse

This is the response object from the GetCertificate operation.

Class GetPolicyRequest

Container for the parameters to the GetPolicy operation. Retrieves the resource-based policy attached to a private CA. If either the private CA resource or the policy cannot be found, this action returns a ResourceNotFoundException.

The policy can be attached or updated with PutPolicy and removed with DeletePolicy.

About Policies

  • A policy grants access on a private CA to an Amazon Web Services customer account, to Amazon Web Services Organizations, or to an Amazon Web Services Organizations unit. Policies are under the control of a CA administrator. For more information, see Using a Resource Based Policy with Amazon Web Services Private CA.

  • A policy permits a user of Certificate Manager (ACM) to issue ACM certificates signed by a CA in another account.

  • For ACM to manage automatic renewal of these certificates, the ACM user must configure a Service Linked Role (SLR). The SLR allows the ACM service to assume the identity of the user, subject to confirmation against the Amazon Web Services Private CA policy. For more information, see Using a Service Linked Role with ACM.

  • Updates made in Amazon Web Services Resource Manager (RAM) are reflected in policies. For more information, see Attach a Policy for Cross-Account Access.

Class GetPolicyResponse

This is the response object from the GetPolicy operation.

Class ImportCertificateAuthorityCertificateRequest

Container for the parameters to the ImportCertificateAuthorityCertificate operation. Imports a signed private CA certificate into Amazon Web Services Private CA. This action is used when you are using a chain of trust whose root is located outside Amazon Web Services Private CA. Before you can call this action, the following preparations must in place:

  1. In Amazon Web Services Private CA, call the CreateCertificateAuthority action to create the private CA that you plan to back with the imported certificate.

  2. Call the GetCertificateAuthorityCsr action to generate a certificate signing request (CSR).

  3. Sign the CSR using a root or intermediate CA hosted by either an on-premises PKI hierarchy or by a commercial CA.

  4. Create a certificate chain and copy the signed certificate and the certificate chain to your working directory.

Amazon Web Services Private CA supports three scenarios for installing a CA certificate:

  • Installing a certificate for a root CA hosted by Amazon Web Services Private CA.

  • Installing a subordinate CA certificate whose parent authority is hosted by Amazon Web Services Private CA.

  • Installing a subordinate CA certificate whose parent authority is externally hosted.

The following additional requirements apply when you import a CA certificate.

  • Only a self-signed certificate can be imported as a root CA.

  • A self-signed certificate cannot be imported as a subordinate CA.

  • Your certificate chain must not include the private CA certificate that you are importing.

  • Your root CA must be the last certificate in your chain. The subordinate certificate, if any, that your root CA signed must be next to last. The subordinate certificate signed by the preceding subordinate CA must come next, and so on until your chain is built.

  • The chain must be PEM-encoded.

  • The maximum allowed size of a certificate is 32 KB.

  • The maximum allowed size of a certificate chain is 2 MB.

A resource such as a private CA, S3 bucket, certificate, audit report, or policy cannot be found.

Class RestoreCertificateAuthorityRequest

Container for the parameters to the RestoreCertificateAuthority operation. Restores a certificate authority (CA) that is in the DELETED state. You can restore a CA during the period that you defined in the PermanentDeletionTimeInDays parameter of the DeleteCertificateAuthority action. Currently, you can specify 7 to 30 days. If you did not specify a PermanentDeletionTimeInDays value, by default you can restore the CA at any time in a 30 day period. You can check the time remaining in the restoration period of a private CA in the DELETED state by calling the DescribeCertificateAuthority or ListCertificateAuthorities actions. The status of a restored CA is set to its pre-deletion status when the RestoreCertificateAuthority action returns. To change its status to ACTIVE, call the UpdateCertificateAuthority action. If the private CA was in the PENDING_CERTIFICATE state at deletion, you must use the ImportCertificateAuthorityCertificate action to import a certificate authority into the private CA before it can be activated. You cannot restore a CA after the restoration period has ended.

Class RestoreCertificateAuthorityResponse

This is the response object from the RestoreCertificateAuthority operation.

Class RevocationConfiguration

Certificate revocation information used by the CreateCertificateAuthority and UpdateCertificateAuthority actions. Your private certificate authority (CA) can configure Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) support and/or maintain a certificate revocation list (CRL). OCSP returns validation information about certificates as requested by clients, and a CRL contains an updated list of certificates revoked by your CA. For more information, see RevokeCertificate and Setting up a certificate revocation method in the Amazon Web Services Private Certificate Authority User Guide.

Class RevokeCertificateRequest

Container for the parameters to the RevokeCertificate operation. Revokes a certificate that was issued inside Amazon Web Services Private CA. If you enable a certificate revocation list (CRL) when you create or update your private CA, information about the revoked certificates will be included in the CRL. Amazon Web Services Private CA writes the CRL to an S3 bucket that you specify. A CRL is typically updated approximately 30 minutes after a certificate is revoked. If for any reason the CRL update fails, Amazon Web Services Private CA attempts makes further attempts every 15 minutes. With Amazon CloudWatch, you can create alarms for the metrics CRLGenerated and MisconfiguredCRLBucket. For more information, see Supported CloudWatch Metrics.

Both Amazon Web Services Private CA and the IAM principal must have permission to write to the S3 bucket that you specify. If the IAM principal making the call does not have permission to write to the bucket, then an exception is thrown. For more information, see Access policies for CRLs in Amazon S3.

Amazon Web Services Private CA also writes revocation information to the audit report. For more information, see CreateCertificateAuthorityAuditReport.

You cannot revoke a root CA self-signed certificate.

Class RevokeCertificateResponse

This is the response object from the RevokeCertificate operation.

Class Tag

Tags are labels that you can use to identify and organize your private CAs. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value. You can associate up to 50 tags with a private CA. To add one or more tags to a private CA, call the TagCertificateAuthority action. To remove a tag, call the UntagCertificateAuthority action.

Class TagCertificateAuthorityRequest

Container for the parameters to the TagCertificateAuthority operation. Adds one or more tags to your private CA. Tags are labels that you can use to identify and organize your Amazon Web Services resources. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value. You specify the private CA on input by its Amazon Resource Name (ARN). You specify the tag by using a key-value pair. You can apply a tag to just one private CA if you want to identify a specific characteristic of that CA, or you can apply the same tag to multiple private CAs if you want to filter for a common relationship among those CAs. To remove one or more tags, use the UntagCertificateAuthority action. Call the ListTags action to see what tags are associated with your CA.

To attach tags to a private CA during the creation procedure, a CA administrator must first associate an inline IAM policy with the CreateCertificateAuthority action and explicitly allow tagging. For more information, see Attaching tags to a CA at the time of creation.

Class TagCertificateAuthorityResponse

This is the response object from the TagCertificateAuthority operation.

Class TooManyTagsException

You can associate up to 50 tags with a private CA. Exception information is contained in the exception message field.

Class UntagCertificateAuthorityRequest

Container for the parameters to the UntagCertificateAuthority operation. Remove one or more tags from your private CA. A tag consists of a key-value pair. If you do not specify the value portion of the tag when calling this action, the tag will be removed regardless of value. If you specify a value, the tag is removed only if it is associated with the specified value. To add tags to a private CA, use the TagCertificateAuthority. Call the ListTags action to see what tags are associated with your CA.

Class UntagCertificateAuthorityResponse

This is the response object from the UntagCertificateAuthority operation.

Class UpdateCertificateAuthorityRequest

Container for the parameters to the UpdateCertificateAuthority operation. 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.

Both Amazon Web Services Private CA and the IAM principal must have permission to write to the S3 bucket that you specify. If the IAM principal making the call does not have permission to write to the bucket, then an exception is thrown. For more information, see Access policies for CRLs in Amazon S3.

Class UpdateCertificateAuthorityResponse

This is the response object from the UpdateCertificateAuthority operation.

Class Validity

Validity specifies the period of time during which a certificate is valid. Validity can be expressed as an explicit date and time when the validity of a certificate starts or expires, or as a span of time after issuance, stated in days, months, or years. For more information, see Validity in RFC 5280.

Amazon Web Services Private CA API consumes the Validity data type differently in two distinct parameters of the IssueCertificate action. The required parameter IssueCertificate:Validity specifies the end of a certificate's validity period. The optional parameter IssueCertificate:ValidityNotBefore specifies a customized starting time for the validity period.
