CreatePermission - AWS Private Certificate Authority

CreatePermission

Grants one or more permissions on a private CA to the AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) service principal (acm.amazonaws.com). These permissions allow ACM to issue and renew ACM certificates that reside in the same AWS 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 AWS Private CA.
