SecretsManager.Client¶A low-level client representing AWS Secrets Manager
Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager provides a service to enable you to store, manage, and retrieve, secrets.
This guide provides descriptions of the Secrets Manager API. For more information about using this service, see the Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager User Guide.
API Version
This version of the Secrets Manager API Reference documents the Secrets Manager API version 2017-10-17.
Support and Feedback for Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager
We welcome your feedback. Send your comments to awssecretsmanager-feedback@amazon.com, or post your feedback and questions in the Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager Discussion Forum. For more information about the Amazon Web Services Discussion Forums, see Forums Help.
Logging API Requests
Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager supports Amazon Web Services CloudTrail, a service that records Amazon Web Services API calls for your Amazon Web Services account and delivers log files to an Amazon S3 bucket. By using information that's collected by Amazon Web Services CloudTrail, you can determine the requests successfully made to Secrets Manager, who made the request, when it was made, and so on. For more about Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager and support for Amazon Web Services CloudTrail, see Logging Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager Events with Amazon Web Services CloudTrail in the Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager User Guide . To learn more about CloudTrail, including enabling it and find your log files, see the Amazon Web Services CloudTrail User Guide.

create_foo, and you'd normally invoke the
operation as client.create_foo(**kwargs), if the
create_foo operation can be paginated, you can use the
call client.get_paginator("create_foo").True if the operation can be paginated,
False otherwise.cancel_rotate_secret(**kwargs)¶Turns off automatic rotation, and if a rotation is currently in progress, cancels the rotation.
If you cancel a rotation in progress, it can leave the VersionStage labels in an unexpected state. You might need to remove the staging label AWSPENDING from the partially created version. You also need to determine whether to roll back to the previous version of the secret by moving the staging label AWSCURRENT to the version that has AWSPENDING . To determine which version has a specific staging label, call ListSecretVersionIds. Then use UpdateSecretVersionStage to change staging labels. For more information, see How rotation works.
To turn on automatic rotation again, call RotateSecret.
Secrets Manager generates a CloudTrail log entry when you call this action. Do not include sensitive information in request parameters because it might be logged. For more information, see Logging Secrets Manager events with CloudTrail.
Required permissions:secretsmanager:CancelRotateSecret. For more information, see IAM policy actions for Secrets Manager and Authentication and access control in Secrets Manager.
See also: AWS API Documentation
Request Syntax
response = client.cancel_rotate_secret(
SecretId='string'
)
[REQUIRED]
The ARN or name of the secret.
For an ARN, we recommend that you specify a complete ARN rather than a partial ARN. See Finding a secret from a partial ARN.
{
'ARN': 'string',
'Name': 'string',
'VersionId': 'string'
}
Response Structure
The ARN of the secret.
The name of the secret.
The unique identifier of the version of the secret created during the rotation. This version might not be complete, and should be evaluated for possible deletion. We recommend that you remove the VersionStage value AWSPENDING from this version so that Secrets Manager can delete it. Failing to clean up a cancelled rotation can block you from starting future rotations.
Exceptions
SecretsManager.Client.exceptions.ResourceNotFoundExceptionSecretsManager.Client.exceptions.InvalidParameterExceptionSecretsManager.Client.exceptions.InternalServiceErrorSecretsManager.Client.exceptions.InvalidRequestExceptionExamples
The following example shows how to cancel rotation for a secret. The operation sets the RotationEnabled field to false and cancels all scheduled rotations. To resume scheduled rotations, you must re-enable rotation by calling the rotate-secret operation.
response = client.cancel_rotate_secret(
SecretId='MyTestDatabaseSecret',
)
print(response)
Expected Output:
{
'ARN': 'arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-west-2:123456789012:secret:MyTestDatabaseSecret-a1b2c3',
'Name': 'Name',
'ResponseMetadata': {
'...': '...',
},
}
close()¶Closes underlying endpoint connections.
create_secret(**kwargs)¶Creates a new secret. A secret can be a password, a set of credentials such as a user name and password, an OAuth token, or other secret information that you store in an encrypted form in Secrets Manager. The secret also includes the connection information to access a database or other service, which Secrets Manager doesn't encrypt. A secret in Secrets Manager consists of both the protected secret data and the important information needed to manage the secret.
For information about creating a secret in the console, see Create a secret.
To create a secret, you can provide the secret value to be encrypted in either the SecretString parameter or the SecretBinary parameter, but not both. If you include SecretString or SecretBinary then Secrets Manager creates an initial secret version and automatically attaches the staging label AWSCURRENT to it.
For database credentials you want to rotate, for Secrets Manager to be able to rotate the secret, you must make sure the JSON you store in the SecretString matches the JSON structure of a database secret.
If you don't specify an KMS encryption key, Secrets Manager uses the Amazon Web Services managed key aws/secretsmanager . If this key doesn't already exist in your account, then Secrets Manager creates it for you automatically. All users and roles in the Amazon Web Services account automatically have access to use aws/secretsmanager . Creating aws/secretsmanager can result in a one-time significant delay in returning the result.
If the secret is in a different Amazon Web Services account from the credentials calling the API, then you can't use aws/secretsmanager to encrypt the secret, and you must create and use a customer managed KMS key.
Secrets Manager generates a CloudTrail log entry when you call this action. Do not include sensitive information in request parameters except SecretBinary or SecretString because it might be logged. For more information, see Logging Secrets Manager events with CloudTrail.
Required permissions:secretsmanager:CreateSecret. If you include tags in the secret, you also needsecretsmanager:TagResource. For more information, see IAM policy actions for Secrets Manager and Authentication and access control in Secrets Manager.
To encrypt the secret with a KMS key other than aws/secretsmanager , you need kms:GenerateDataKey and kms:Decrypt permission to the key.

Name='string',
ClientRequestToken='string',
Description='string',
KmsKeyId='string',

},
],
AddReplicaRegions=[
{
'Region': 'string',

},
],
ForceOverwriteReplicaSecret=True|False
)
[REQUIRED]
The name of the new secret.
The secret name can contain ASCII letters, numbers, and the following characters: /_+=.@-
Do not end your secret name with a hyphen followed by six characters. If you do so, you risk confusion and unexpected results when searching for a secret by partial ARN. Secrets Manager automatically adds a hyphen and six random characters after the secret name at the end of the ARN.
If you include SecretString or SecretBinary , then Secrets Manager creates an initial version for the secret, and this parameter specifies the unique identifier for the new version.
Note
If you use the Amazon Web Services CLI or one of the Amazon Web Services SDKs to call this operation, then you can leave this parameter empty. The CLI or SDK generates a random UUID for you and includes it as the value for this parameter in the request. If you don't use the SDK and instead generate a raw HTTP request to the Secrets Manager service endpoint, then you must generate a ClientRequestToken yourself for the new version and include the value in the request.
This value helps ensure idempotency. Secrets Manager uses this value to prevent the accidental creation of duplicate versions if there are failures and retries during a rotation. We recommend that you generate a UUID-type value to ensure uniqueness of your versions within the specified secret.
ClientRequestToken value isn't already associated with a version of the secret then a new version of the secret is created.SecretString and SecretBinary values are the same as those in the request, then the request is ignored.SecretString and SecretBinary values are different from those in the request, then the request fails because you cannot modify an existing version. Instead, use PutSecretValue to create a new version.This value becomes the VersionId of the new version.
This field is autopopulated if not provided.
The ARN, key ID, or alias of the KMS key that Secrets Manager uses to encrypt the secret value in the secret. An alias is always prefixed by alias/ , for example alias/aws/secretsmanager . For more information, see About aliases.
To use a KMS key in a different account, use the key ARN or the alias ARN.
If you don't specify this value, then Secrets Manager uses the key aws/secretsmanager . If that key doesn't yet exist, then Secrets Manager creates it for you automatically the first time it encrypts the secret value.
If the secret is in a different Amazon Web Services account from the credentials calling the API, then you can't use aws/secretsmanager to encrypt the secret, and you must create and use a customer managed KMS key.
The binary data to encrypt and store in the new version of the secret. We recommend that you store your binary data in a file and then pass the contents of the file as a parameter.
Either SecretString or SecretBinary must have a value, but not both.
This parameter is not available in the Secrets Manager console.
The text data to encrypt and store in this new version of the secret. We recommend you use a JSON structure of key/value pairs for your secret value.
Either SecretString or SecretBinary must have a value, but not both.
If you create a secret by using the Secrets Manager console then Secrets Manager puts the protected secret text in only the SecretString parameter. The Secrets Manager console stores the information as a JSON structure of key/value pairs that a Lambda rotation function can parse.
A list of tags to attach to the secret. Each tag is a key and value pair of strings in a JSON text string, for example:
[{"Key":"CostCenter","Value":"12345"},{"Key":"environment","Value":"production"}]
Secrets Manager tag key names are case sensitive. A tag with the key "ABC" is a different tag from one with key "abc".
If you check tags in permissions policies as part of your security strategy, then adding or removing a tag can change permissions. If the completion of this operation would result in you losing your permissions for this secret, then Secrets Manager blocks the operation and returns an Access Denied error. For more information, see Control access to secrets using tags and Limit access to identities with tags that match secrets' tags.
For information about how to format a JSON parameter for the various command line tool environments, see Using JSON for Parameters. If your command-line tool or SDK requires quotation marks around the parameter, you should use single quotes to avoid confusion with the double quotes required in the JSON text.
The following restrictions apply to tags:
aws: prefix in your tag names or values because Amazon Web Services reserves it for Amazon Web Services use. You can't edit or delete tag names or values with this prefix. Tags with this prefix do not count against your tags per secret limit.A structure that contains information about a tag.
The key identifier, or name, of the tag.
The string value associated with the key of the tag.
A list of Regions and KMS keys to replicate secrets.
A custom type that specifies a Region and the KmsKeyId for a replica secret.
A Region code. For a list of Region codes, see Name and code of Regions.
The ARN, key ID, or alias of the KMS key to encrypt the secret. If you don't include this field, Secrets Manager uses aws/secretsmanager .

'ResponseMetadata': {
'...': '...',
},
}
delete_secret(**kwargs)¶Deletes a secret and all of its versions. You can specify a recovery window during which you can restore the secret. The minimum recovery window is 7 days. The default recovery window is 30 days. Secrets Manager attaches a DeletionDate stamp to the secret that specifies the end of the recovery window. At the end of the recovery window, Secrets Manager deletes the secret permanently.
You can't delete a primary secret that is replicated to other Regions. You must first delete the replicas using RemoveRegionsFromReplication, and then delete the primary secret. When you delete a replica, it is deleted immediately.
You can't directly delete a version of a secret. Instead, you remove all staging labels from the version using UpdateSecretVersionStage. This marks the version as deprecated, and then Secrets Manager can automatically delete the version in the background.
To determine whether an application still uses a secret, you can create an Amazon CloudWatch alarm to alert you to any attempts to access a secret during the recovery window. For more information, see Monitor secrets scheduled for deletion.
Secrets Manager performs the permanent secret deletion at the end of the waiting period as a background task with low priority. There is no guarantee of a specific time after the recovery window for the permanent delete to occur.
At any time before recovery window ends, you can use RestoreSecret to remove the DeletionDate and cancel the deletion of the secret.
When a secret is scheduled for deletion, you cannot retrieve the secret value. You must first cancel the deletion with RestoreSecret and then you can retrieve the secret.
Secrets Manager generates a CloudTrail log entry when you call this action. Do not include sensitive information in request parameters because it might be logged. For more information, see Logging Secrets Manager events with CloudTrail.
Required permissions:secretsmanager:DeleteSecret. For more information, see IAM policy actions for Secrets Manager and Authentication and access control in Secrets Manager.
See also: AWS API Documentation
Request Syntax
response = client.delete_secret(
SecretId='string',
RecoveryWindowInDays=123,
ForceDeleteWithoutRecovery=True|False
)
[REQUIRED]
The ARN or name of the secret to delete.
For an ARN, we recommend that you specify a complete ARN rather than a partial ARN. See Finding a secret from a partial ARN.
ForceDeleteWithoutRecovery in the same call. If you don't use either, then Secrets Manager defaults to a 30 day recovery window.Specifies whether to delete the secret without any recovery window. You can't use both this parameter and RecoveryWindowInDays in the same call. If you don't use either, then Secrets Manager defaults to a 30 day recovery window.
Secrets Manager performs the actual deletion with an asynchronous background process, so there might be a short delay before the secret is permanently deleted. If you delete a secret and then immediately create a secret with the same name, use appropriate back off and retry logic.
Warning
Use this parameter with caution. This parameter causes the operation to skip the normal recovery window before the permanent deletion that Secrets Manager would normally impose with the RecoveryWindowInDays parameter. If you delete a secret with the ForceDeleteWithoutRecovery parameter, then you have no opportunity to recover the secret. You lose the secret permanently.

Response Structure
The ARN of the secret.
The name of the secret.
The description of the secret.
The key ID or alias ARN of the KMS key that Secrets Manager uses to encrypt the secret value. If the secret is encrypted with the Amazon Web Services managed key aws/secretsmanager , this field is omitted. Secrets created using the console use an KMS key ID.
Specifies whether automatic rotation is turned on for this secret.
To turn on rotation, use RotateSecret. To turn off rotation, use CancelRotateSecret.
The ARN of the Lambda function that Secrets Manager invokes to rotate the secret.
The rotation schedule and Lambda function for this secret. If the secret previously had rotation turned on, but it is now turned off, this field shows the previous rotation schedule and rotation function. If the secret never had rotation turned on, this field is omitted.
The number of days between automatic scheduled rotations of the secret. You can use this value to check that your secret meets your compliance guidelines for how often secrets must be rotated.
In DescribeSecret and ListSecrets , this value is calculated from the rotation schedule after every successful rotation. In RotateSecret , you can set the rotation schedule in RotationRules with AutomaticallyAfterDays or ScheduleExpression , but not both. To set a rotation schedule in hours, use ScheduleExpression .
The length of the rotation window in hours, for example 3h for a three hour window. Secrets Manager rotates your secret at any time during this window. The window must not extend into the next rotation window or the next UTC day. The window starts according to the ScheduleExpression . If you don't specify a Duration , for a ScheduleExpression in hours, the window automatically closes after one hour. For a ScheduleExpression in days, the window automatically closes at the end of the UTC day. For more information, including examples, see Schedule expressions in Secrets Manager rotation in the Secrets Manager Users Guide .
A cron() or rate() expression that defines the schedule for rotating your secret. Secrets Manager rotation schedules use UTC time zone. Secrets Manager rotates your secret any time during a rotation window.
Secrets Manager rate() expressions represent the interval in hours or days that you want to rotate your secret, for example rate(12 hours) or rate(10 days) . You can rotate a secret as often as every four hours. If you use a rate() expression, the rotation window starts at midnight. For a rate in hours, the default rotation window closes after one hour. For a rate in days, the default rotation window closes at the end of the day. You can set the Duration to change the rotation window. The rotation window must not extend into the next UTC day or into the next rotation window.
You can use a cron() expression to create a rotation schedule that is more detailed than a rotation interval. For more information, including examples, see Schedule expressions in Secrets Manager rotation in the Secrets Manager Users Guide . For a cron expression that represents a schedule in hours, the default rotation window closes after one hour. For a cron expression that represents a schedule in days, the default rotation window closes at the end of the day. You can set the Duration to change the rotation window. The rotation window must not extend into the next UTC day or into the next rotation window.
The last date and time that Secrets Manager rotated the secret. If the secret isn't configured for rotation, Secrets Manager returns null.
The last date and time that this secret was modified in any way.
The date that the secret was last accessed in the Region. This field is omitted if the secret has never been retrieved in the Region.
The date the secret is scheduled for deletion. If it is not scheduled for deletion, this field is omitted. When you delete a secret, Secrets Manager requires a recovery window of at least 7 days before deleting the secret. Some time after the deleted date, Secrets Manager deletes the secret, including all of its versions.
If a secret is scheduled for deletion, then its details, including the encrypted secret value, is not accessible. To cancel a scheduled deletion and restore access to the secret, use RestoreSecret.
The list of tags attached to the secret. To add tags to a secret, use TagResource. To remove tags, use UntagResource.
A structure that contains information about a tag.
The key identifier, or name, of the tag.
The string value associated with the key of the tag.
A list of the versions of the secret that have staging labels attached. Versions that don't have staging labels are considered deprecated and Secrets Manager can delete them.
Secrets Manager uses staging labels to indicate the status of a secret version during rotation. The three staging labels for rotation are:
AWSCURRENT , which indicates the current version of the secret.AWSPENDING , which indicates the version of the secret that contains new secret information that will become the next current version when rotation finishes. During rotation, Secrets Manager creates an AWSPENDING version ID before creating the new secret version. To check if a secret version exists, call GetSecretValue.AWSPREVIOUS , which indicates the previous current version of the secret. You can use this as the last known good version.For more information about rotation and staging labels, see How rotation works.
The ID of the service that created this secret. For more information, see Secrets managed by other Amazon Web Services services.
The date the secret was created.
The Region the secret is in. If a secret is replicated to other Regions, the replicas are listed in ReplicationStatus .
A list of the replicas of this secret and their status:
Failed , which indicates that the replica was not created.InProgress , which indicates that Secrets Manager is in the process of creating the replica.InSync , which indicates that the replica was created.A replication object consisting of a RegionReplicationStatus object and includes a Region, KMSKeyId, status, and status message.
The Region where replication occurs.
Can be an ARN , Key ID , or Alias .
The status can be InProgress , Failed , or InSync .
Status message such as "Secret with this name already exists in this region ".
The date that the secret was last accessed in the Region. This field is omitted if the secret has never been retrieved in the Region.

RotationLambdaARN (string) --
The ARN of an Amazon Web Services Lambda function invoked by Secrets Manager to rotate and expire the secret either automatically per the schedule or manually by a call to RotateSecret.
RotationRules (dict) --
A structure that defines the rotation configuration for the secret.
AutomaticallyAfterDays (integer) --
The number of days between automatic scheduled rotations of the secret. You can use this value to check that your secret meets your compliance guidelines for how often secrets must be rotated.
In DescribeSecret and ListSecrets , this value is calculated from the rotation schedule after every successful rotation. In RotateSecret , you can set the rotation schedule in RotationRules with AutomaticallyAfterDays or ScheduleExpression , but not both. To set a rotation schedule in hours, use ScheduleExpression .
Duration (string) --
The length of the rotation window in hours, for example 3h for a three hour window. Secrets Manager rotates your secret at any time during this window. The window must not extend into the next rotation window or the next UTC day. The window starts according to the ScheduleExpression . If you don't specify a Duration , for a ScheduleExpression in hours, the window automatically closes after one hour. For a ScheduleExpression in days, the window automatically closes at the end of the UTC day. For more information, including examples, see Schedule expressions in Secrets Manager rotation in the Secrets Manager Users Guide .
ScheduleExpression (string) --
A cron() or rate() expression that defines the schedule for rotating your secret. Secrets Manager rotation schedules use UTC time zone. Secrets Manager rotates your secret any time during a rotation window.
Secrets Manager rate() expressions represent the interval in hours or days that you want to rotate your secret, for example rate(12 hours) or rate(10 days) . You can rotate a secret as often as every four hours. If you use a rate() expression, the rotation window starts at midnight. For a rate in hours, the default rotation window closes after one hour. For a rate in days, the default rotation window closes at the end of the day. You can set the Duration to change the rotation window. The rotation window must not extend into the next UTC day or into the next rotation window.
You can use a cron() expression to create a rotation schedule that is more detailed than a rotation interval. For more information, including examples, see Schedule expressions in Secrets Manager rotation in the Secrets Manager Users Guide . For a cron expression that represents a schedule in hours, the default rotation window closes after one hour. For a cron expression that represents a schedule in days, the default rotation window closes at the end of the day. You can set the Duration to change the rotation window. The rotation window must not extend into the next UTC day or into the next rotation window.

}
put_secret_value(**kwargs)¶Creates a new version with a new encrypted secret value and attaches it to the secret. The version can contain a new SecretString value or a new SecretBinary value.
We recommend you avoid calling PutSecretValue at a sustained rate of more than once every 10 minutes. When you update the secret value, Secrets Manager creates a new version of the secret. Secrets Manager removes outdated versions when there are more than 100, but it does not remove versions created less than 24 hours ago. If you call PutSecretValue more than once every 10 minutes, you create more versions than Secrets Manager removes, and you will reach the quota for secret versions.
You can specify the staging labels to attach to the new version in VersionStages . If you don't include VersionStages , then Secrets Manager automatically moves the staging label AWSCURRENT to this version. If this operation creates the first version for the secret, then Secrets Manager automatically attaches the staging label AWSCURRENT to it. If this operation moves the staging label AWSCURRENT from another version to this version, then Secrets Manager also automatically moves the staging label AWSPREVIOUS to the version that AWSCURRENT was removed from.
This operation is idempotent. If you call this operation with a ClientRequestToken that matches an existing version's VersionId, and you specify the same secret data, the operation succeeds but does nothing. However, if the secret data is different, then the operation fails because you can't modify an existing version; you can only create new ones.
Secrets Manager generates a CloudTrail log entry when you call this action. Do not include sensitive information in request parameters except SecretBinary or SecretString because it might be logged. For more information, see Logging Secrets Manager events with CloudTrail.
Required permissions:secretsmanager:PutSecretValue. For more information, see IAM policy actions for Secrets Manager and Authentication and access control in Secrets Manager.

[REQUIRED]
The ARN or name of the secret to add a new version to.
For an ARN, we recommend that you specify a complete ARN rather than a partial ARN. See Finding a secret from a partial ARN.
If the secret doesn't already exist, use CreateSecret instead.
A unique identifier for the new version of the secret.
Note
If you use the Amazon Web Services CLI or one of the Amazon Web Services SDKs to call this operation, then you can leave this parameter empty because they generate a random UUID for you. If you don't use the SDK and instead generate a raw HTTP request to the Secrets Manager service endpoint, then you must generate a ClientRequestToken yourself for new versions and include that value in the request.
This value helps ensure idempotency. Secrets Manager uses this value to prevent the accidental creation of duplicate versions if there are failures and retries during the Lambda rotation function processing. We recommend that you generate a UUID-type value to ensure uniqueness within the specified secret.
ClientRequestToken value isn't already associated with a version of the secret then a new version of the secret is created.SecretString or SecretBinary values are the same as those in the request then the request is ignored. The operation is idempotent.SecretString and SecretBinary values are different from those in the request, then the request fails because you can't modify a secret version. You can only create new versions to store new secret values.This value becomes the VersionId of the new version.
This field is autopopulated if not provided.
The binary data to encrypt and store in the new version of the secret. To use this parameter in the command-line tools, we recommend that you store your binary data in a file and then pass the contents of the file as a parameter.
You must include SecretBinary or SecretString , but not both.
You can't access this value from the Secrets Manager console.
The text to encrypt and store in the new version of the secret.
You must include SecretBinary or SecretString , but not both.
We recommend you create the secret string as JSON key/value pairs, as shown in the example.
A list of staging labels to attach to this version of the secret. Secrets Manager uses staging labels to track versions of a secret through the rotation process.
If you specify a staging label that's already associated with a different version of the same secret, then Secrets Manager removes the label from the other version and attaches it to this version. If you specify AWSCURRENT , and it is already attached to another version, then Secrets Manager also moves the staging label AWSPREVIOUS to the version that AWSCURRENT was removed from.
If you don't include VersionStages , then Secrets Manager automatically moves the staging label AWSCURRENT to this version.

}
rotate_secret(**kwargs)¶Configures and starts the asynchronous process of rotating the secret. For more information about rotation, see Rotate secrets.
If you include the configuration parameters, the operation sets the values for the secret and then immediately starts a rotation. If you don't include the configuration parameters, the operation starts a rotation with the values already stored in the secret.
For database credentials you want to rotate, for Secrets Manager to be able to rotate the secret, you must make sure the secret value is in the JSON structure of a database secret. In particular, if you want to use the alternating users strategy, your secret must contain the ARN of a superuser secret.
To configure rotation, you also need the ARN of an Amazon Web Services Lambda function and the schedule for the rotation. The Lambda rotation function creates a new version of the secret and creates or updates the credentials on the database or service to match. After testing the new credentials, the function marks the new secret version with the staging label AWSCURRENT . Then anyone who retrieves the secret gets the new version. For more information, see How rotation works.
You can create the Lambda rotation function based on the rotation function templates that Secrets Manager provides. Choose a template that matches your Rotation strategy.
When rotation is successful, the AWSPENDING staging label might be attached to the same version as the AWSCURRENT version, or it might not be attached to any version. If the AWSPENDING staging label is present but not attached to the same version as AWSCURRENT , then any later invocation of RotateSecret assumes that a previous rotation request is still in progress and returns an error.
When rotation is unsuccessful, the AWSPENDING staging label might be attached to an empty secret version. For more information, see Troubleshoot rotation in the Secrets Manager User Guide .
Secrets Manager generates a CloudTrail log entry when you call this action. Do not include sensitive information in request parameters because it might be logged. For more information, see Logging Secrets Manager events with CloudTrail.
Required permissions:secretsmanager:RotateSecret. For more information, see IAM policy actions for Secrets Manager and Authentication and access control in Secrets Manager. You also needlambda:InvokeFunctionpermissions on the rotation function. For more information, see Permissions for rotation.

[REQUIRED]
The ARN or name of the secret to rotate.
For an ARN, we recommend that you specify a complete ARN rather than a partial ARN. See Finding a secret from a partial ARN.
A unique identifier for the new version of the secret that helps ensure idempotency. Secrets Manager uses this value to prevent the accidental creation of duplicate versions if there are failures and retries during rotation. This value becomes the VersionId of the new version.
If you use the Amazon Web Services CLI or one of the Amazon Web Services SDK to call this operation, then you can leave this parameter empty. The CLI or SDK generates a random UUID for you and includes that in the request for this parameter. If you don't use the SDK and instead generate a raw HTTP request to the Secrets Manager service endpoint, then you must generate a ClientRequestToken yourself for new versions and include that value in the request.
You only need to specify this value if you implement your own retry logic and you want to ensure that Secrets Manager doesn't attempt to create a secret version twice. We recommend that you generate a UUID-type value to ensure uniqueness within the specified secret.
This field is autopopulated if not provided.
A structure that defines the rotation configuration for this secret.
The number of days between automatic scheduled rotations of the secret. You can use this value to check that your secret meets your compliance guidelines for how often secrets must be rotated.
In DescribeSecret and ListSecrets , this value is calculated from the rotation schedule after every successful rotation. In RotateSecret , you can set the rotation schedule in RotationRules with AutomaticallyAfterDays or ScheduleExpression , but not both. To set a rotation schedule in hours, use ScheduleExpression .
The length of the rotation window in hours, for example 3h for a three hour window. Secrets Manager rotates your secret at any time during this window. The window must not extend into the next rotation window or the next UTC day. The window starts according to the ScheduleExpression . If you don't specify a Duration , for a ScheduleExpression in hours, the window automatically closes after one hour. For a ScheduleExpression in days, the window automatically closes at the end of the UTC day. For more information, including examples, see Schedule expressions in Secrets Manager rotation in the Secrets Manager Users Guide .
A cron() or rate() expression that defines the schedule for rotating your secret. Secrets Manager rotation schedules use UTC time zone. Secrets Manager rotates your secret any time during a rotation window.
Secrets Manager rate() expressions represent the interval in hours or days that you want to rotate your secret, for example rate(12 hours) or rate(10 days) . You can rotate a secret as often as every four hours. If you use a rate() expression, the rotation window starts at midnight. For a rate in hours, the default rotation window closes after one hour. For a rate in days, the default rotation window closes at the end of the day. You can set the Duration to change the rotation window. The rotation window must not extend into the next UTC day or into the next rotation window.
You can use a cron() expression to create a rotation schedule that is more detailed than a rotation interval. For more information, including examples, see Schedule expressions in Secrets Manager rotation in the Secrets Manager Users Guide . For a cron expression that represents a schedule in hours, the default rotation window closes after one hour. For a cron expression that represents a schedule in days, the default rotation window closes at the end of the day. You can set the Duration to change the rotation window. The rotation window must not extend into the next UTC day or into the next rotation window.
Specifies whether to rotate the secret immediately or wait until the next scheduled rotation window. The rotation schedule is defined in RotateSecretRequest$RotationRules.
If you don't immediately rotate the secret, Secrets Manager tests the rotation configuration by running the testSecretstep of the Lambda rotation function. The test creates an AWSPENDING version of the secret and then removes it.
If you don't specify this value, then by default, Secrets Manager rotates the secret immediately.

update_secret(**kwargs)¶Modifies the details of a secret, including metadata and the secret value. To change the secret value, you can also use PutSecretValue.
To change the rotation configuration of a secret, use RotateSecret instead.
We recommend you avoid calling UpdateSecret at a sustained rate of more than once every 10 minutes. When you call UpdateSecret to update the secret value, Secrets Manager creates a new version of the secret. Secrets Manager removes outdated versions when there are more than 100, but it does not remove versions created less than 24 hours ago. If you update the secret value more than once every 10 minutes, you create more versions than Secrets Manager removes, and you will reach the quota for secret versions.
If you include SecretString or SecretBinary to create a new secret version, Secrets Manager automatically moves the staging label AWSCURRENT to the new version. Then it attaches the label AWSPREVIOUS to the version that AWSCURRENT was removed from.
If you call this operation with a ClientRequestToken that matches an existing version's VersionId , the operation results in an error. You can't modify an existing version, you can only create a new version. To remove a version, remove all staging labels from it. See UpdateSecretVersionStage.
Secrets Manager generates a CloudTrail log entry when you call this action. Do not include sensitive information in request parameters except SecretBinary or SecretString because it might be logged. For more information, see Logging Secrets Manager events with CloudTrail.
Required permissions:secretsmanager:UpdateSecret. For more information, see IAM policy actions for Secrets Manager and Authentication and access control in Secrets Manager. If you use a customer managed key, you must also havekms:GenerateDataKeyandkms:Decryptpermissions on the key. For more information, see Secret encryption and decryption.

[REQUIRED]
The ARN or name of the secret.
For an ARN, we recommend that you specify a complete ARN rather than a partial ARN. See Finding a secret from a partial ARN.
If you include SecretString or SecretBinary , then Secrets Manager creates a new version for the secret, and this parameter specifies the unique identifier for the new version.
Note
If you use the Amazon Web Services CLI or one of the Amazon Web Services SDKs to call this operation, then you can leave this parameter empty. The CLI or SDK generates a random UUID for you and includes it as the value for this parameter in the request. If you don't use the SDK and instead generate a raw HTTP request to the Secrets Manager service endpoint, then you must generate a ClientRequestToken yourself for the new version and include the value in the request.
This value becomes the VersionId of the new version.
This field is autopopulated if not provided.
The ARN, key ID, or alias of the KMS key that Secrets Manager uses to encrypt new secret versions as well as any existing versions with the staging labels AWSCURRENT , AWSPENDING , or AWSPREVIOUS . For more information about versions and staging labels, see Concepts: Version.
A key alias is always prefixed by alias/ , for example alias/aws/secretsmanager . For more information, see About aliases.
If you set this to an empty string, Secrets Manager uses the Amazon Web Services managed key aws/secretsmanager . If this key doesn't already exist in your account, then Secrets Manager creates it for you automatically. All users and roles in the Amazon Web Services account automatically have access to use aws/secretsmanager . Creating aws/secretsmanager can result in a one-time significant delay in returning the result.
Warning
You can only use the Amazon Web Services managed key aws/secretsmanager if you call this operation using credentials from the same Amazon Web Services account that owns the secret. If the secret is in a different account, then you must use a customer managed key and provide the ARN of that KMS key in this field. The user making the call must have permissions to both the secret and the KMS key in their respective accounts.
The binary data to encrypt and store in the new version of the secret. We recommend that you store your binary data in a file and then pass the contents of the file as a parameter.
Either SecretBinary or SecretString must have a value, but not both.
You can't access this parameter in the Secrets Manager console.
The text data to encrypt and store in the new version of the secret. We recommend you use a JSON structure of key/value pairs for your secret value.

update_secret_version_stage(**kwargs)¶Modifies the staging labels attached to a version of a secret. Secrets Manager uses staging labels to track a version as it progresses through the secret rotation process. Each staging label can be attached to only one version at a time. To add a staging label to a version when it is already attached to another version, Secrets Manager first removes it from the other version first and then attaches it to this one. For more information about versions and staging labels, see Concepts: Version.
The staging labels that you specify in the VersionStage parameter are added to the existing list of staging labels for the version.
You can move the AWSCURRENT staging label to this version by including it in this call.
Note
Whenever you move AWSCURRENT , Secrets Manager automatically moves the label AWSPREVIOUS to the version that AWSCURRENT was removed from.
If this action results in the last label being removed from a version, then the version is considered to be 'deprecated' and can be deleted by Secrets Manager.
Secrets Manager generates a CloudTrail log entry when you call this action. Do not include sensitive information in request parameters because it might be logged. For more information, see Logging Secrets Manager events with CloudTrail.

The following example shows how to validate a resource-based policy to a secret.
response = client.validate_resource_policy(
ResourcePolicy='{\n"Version":"2012-10-17",\n"Statement":[{\n"Effect":"Allow",\n"Principal":{\n"AWS":"arn:aws:iam::123456789012:root"\n},\n"Action":"secretsmanager:GetSecretValue",\n"Resource":"*"\n}]\n}',
SecretId='MyTestDatabaseSecret',
)
print(response)
Expected Output:
{
'PolicyValidationPassed': True,
'ValidationErrors': [
],
'ResponseMetadata': {
'...': '...',
},
}
The available paginators are:
SecretsManager.Paginator.ListSecrets¶paginator = client.get_paginator('list_secrets')
paginate(**kwargs)¶Creates an iterator that will paginate through responses from SecretsManager.Client.list_secrets().

The filters to apply to the list of secrets.
Allows you to add filters when you use the search function in Secrets Manager. For more information, see Find secrets in Secrets Manager.
The following are keys you can use:
The keyword to filter for.
You can prefix your search value with an exclamation mark ( ! ) in order to perform negation filters.
CreatedDate .A dictionary that provides parameters to control pagination.
The total number of items to return. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified in max-items then a NextToken will be provided in the output that you can use to resume pagination.
The size of each page.
A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previous response.

Response Structure
(dict) --
SecretList (list) --
A list of the secrets in the account.
(dict) --
A structure that contains the details about a secret. It does not include the encrypted SecretString and SecretBinary values. To get those values, use GetSecretValue .
ARN (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the secret.
Name (string) --
The friendly name of the secret. You can use forward slashes in the name to represent a path hierarchy. For example, /prod/databases/dbserver1 could represent the secret for a server named dbserver1 in the folder databases in the folder prod .
Description (string) --
The user-provided description of the secret.
KmsKeyId (string) --
The ARN of the KMS key that Secrets Manager uses to encrypt the secret value. If the secret is encrypted with the Amazon Web Services managed key aws/secretsmanager , this field is omitted.
RotationEnabled (boolean) --
Indicates whether automatic, scheduled rotation is enabled for this secret.
RotationLambdaARN (string) --
The ARN of an Amazon Web Services Lambda function invoked by Secrets Manager to rotate and expire the secret either automatically per the schedule or manually by a call to RotateSecret.
RotationRules (dict) --
A structure that defines the rotation configuration for the secret.
AutomaticallyAfterDays (integer) --
The number of days between automatic scheduled rotations of the secret. You can use this value to check that your secret meets your compliance guidelines for how often secrets must be rotated.
In DescribeSecret and ListSecrets , this value is calculated from the rotation schedule after every successful rotation. In RotateSecret , you can set the rotation schedule in RotationRules with AutomaticallyAfterDays or ScheduleExpression , but not both. To set a rotation schedule in hours, use ScheduleExpression .
Duration (string) --
The length of the rotation window in hours, for example 3h for a three hour window. Secrets Manager rotates your secret at any time during this window. The window must not extend into the next rotation window or the next UTC day. The window starts according to the ScheduleExpression . If you don't specify a Duration , for a ScheduleExpression in hours, the window automatically closes after one hour. For a ScheduleExpression in days, the window automatically closes at the end of the UTC day. For more information, including examples, see Schedule expressions in Secrets Manager rotation in the Secrets Manager Users Guide .
ScheduleExpression (string) --
A cron() or rate() expression that defines the schedule for rotating your secret. Secrets Manager rotation schedules use UTC time zone. Secrets Manager rotates your secret any time during a rotation window.
Secrets Manager rate() expressions represent the interval in hours or days that you want to rotate your secret, for example rate(12 hours) or rate(10 days) . You can rotate a secret as often as every four hours. If you use a rate() expression, the rotation window starts at midnight. For a rate in hours, the default rotation window closes after one hour. For a rate in days, the default rotation window closes at the end of the day. You can set the Duration to change the rotation window. The rotation window must not extend into the next UTC day or into the next rotation window.
You can use a cron() expression to create a rotation schedule that is more detailed than a rotation interval. For more information, including examples, see Schedule expressions in Secrets Manager rotation in the Secrets Manager Users Guide . For a cron expression that represents a schedule in hours, the default rotation window closes after one hour. For a cron expression that represents a schedule in days, the default rotation window closes at the end of the day. You can set the Duration to change the rotation window. The rotation window must not extend into the next UTC day or into the next rotation window.
LastRotatedDate (datetime) --
The most recent date and time that the Secrets Manager rotation process was successfully completed. This value is null if the secret hasn't ever rotated.
LastChangedDate (datetime) --
The last date and time that this secret was modified in any way.
LastAccessedDate (datetime) --
The date that the secret was last accessed in the Region. This field is omitted if the secret has never been retrieved in the Region.
DeletedDate (datetime) --
The date and time the deletion of the secret occurred. Not present on active secrets. The secret can be recovered until the number of days in the recovery window has passed, as specified in the RecoveryWindowInDays parameter of the DeleteSecret operation.
Tags (list) --
The list of user-defined tags associated with the secret. To add tags to a secret, use TagResource. To remove tags, use UntagResource.
(dict) --
A structure that contains information about a tag.
Key (string) --
The key identifier, or name, of the tag.
Value (string) --
The string value associated with the key of the tag.
SecretVersionsToStages (dict) --
A list of all of the currently assigned SecretVersionStage staging labels and the SecretVersionId attached to each one. Staging labels are used to keep track of the different versions during the rotation process.
Note
A version that does not have any SecretVersionStage is considered deprecated and subject to deletion. Such versions are not included in this list.
OwningService (string) --
Returns the name of the service that created the secret.
CreatedDate (datetime) --
The date and time when a secret was created.
PrimaryRegion (string) --
The Region where Secrets Manager originated the secret.
