delete_key#

PaymentCryptographyControlPlane.Client.delete_key(**kwargs)#

Deletes the key material and metadata associated with Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography key.

Key deletion is irreversible. After a key is deleted, you can’t perform cryptographic operations using the key. For example, you can’t decrypt data that was encrypted by a deleted Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography key, and the data may become unrecoverable. Because key deletion is destructive, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography has a safety mechanism to prevent accidental deletion of a key. When you call this operation, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography disables the specified key but doesn’t delete it until after a waiting period set using DeleteKeyInDays. The default waiting period is 7 days. During the waiting period, the KeyState is DELETE_PENDING. After the key is deleted, the KeyState is DELETE_COMPLETE.

You should delete a key only when you are sure that you don’t need to use it anymore and no other parties are utilizing this key. If you aren’t sure, consider deactivating it instead by calling StopKeyUsage.

Cross-account use: This operation can’t be used across different Amazon Web Services accounts.

Response Structure

(dict) –
- Key (dict) –
  
  The KeyARN of the key that is scheduled for deletion.
  - KeyArn (string) –
    
    The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the key.
  - KeyAttributes (dict) –
    
    The role of the key, the algorithm it supports, and the cryptographic operations allowed with the key. This data is immutable after the key is created.
    - KeyUsage (string) –
      
      The cryptographic usage of an Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography key as deﬁned in section A.5.2 of the TR-31 spec.
    - KeyClass (string) –
      
      The type of Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography key to create, which determines the classiﬁcation of the cryptographic method and whether Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography key contains a symmetric key or an asymmetric key pair.
    - KeyAlgorithm (string) –
      
      The key algorithm to be use during creation of an Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography key.
      
      For symmetric keys, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography supports AES and TDES algorithms. For asymmetric keys, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography supports RSA and ECC_NIST algorithms.
    - KeyModesOfUse (dict) –
      
      The list of cryptographic operations that you can perform using the key.
