list-retirable-grants

Description

Returns information about all grants in the Amazon Web Services account and Region that have the specified retiring principal.

You can specify any principal in your Amazon Web Services account. The grants that are returned include grants for KMS keys in your Amazon Web Services account and other Amazon Web Services accounts. You might use this operation to determine which grants you may retire. To retire a grant, use the RetireGrant operation.

For detailed information about grants, including grant terminology, see Grants in KMS in the * Key Management Service Developer Guide * . For examples of working with grants in several programming languages, see Programming grants .

Cross-account use : You must specify a principal in your Amazon Web Services account. This operation returns a list of grants where the retiring principal specified in the ListRetirableGrants request is the same retiring principal on the grant. This can include grants on KMS keys owned by other Amazon Web Services accounts, but you do not need kms:ListRetirableGrants permission (or any other additional permission) in any Amazon Web Services account other than your own.

Required permissions : kms:ListRetirableGrants (IAM policy) in your Amazon Web Services account.

Note

KMS authorizes ListRetirableGrants requests by evaluating the caller account's kms:ListRetirableGrants permissions. The authorized resource in ListRetirableGrants calls is the retiring principal specified in the request. KMS does not evaluate the caller's permissions to verify their access to any KMS keys or grants that might be returned by the ListRetirableGrants call.

  • ListGrants
  • RetireGrant
  • RevokeGrant
Eventual consistency : The KMS API follows an eventual consistency model. For more information, see KMS eventual consistency .

list-retirable-grants is a paginated operation. Multiple API calls may be issued in order to retrieve the entire data set of results. You can disable pagination by providing the --no-paginate argument. When using --output text and the --query argument on a paginated response, the --query argument must extract data from the results of the following query expressions: Grants

Options

--retiring-principal (string)

The retiring principal for which to list grants. Enter a principal in your Amazon Web Services account.

To specify the retiring principal, use the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an Amazon Web Services principal. Valid principals include Amazon Web Services accounts, IAM users, IAM roles, federated users, and assumed role users. For help with the ARN syntax for a principal, see IAM ARNs in the * Identity and Access Management User Guide * .

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--starting-token (string)

A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previously truncated response.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--page-size (integer)

The size of each page to get in the AWS service call. This does not affect the number of items returned in the command's output. Setting a smaller page size results in more calls to the AWS service, retrieving fewer items in each call. This can help prevent the AWS service calls from timing out.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--max-items (integer)

The total number of items to return in the command's output. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified, a NextToken is provided in the command's output. To resume pagination, provide the NextToken value in the starting-token argument of a subsequent command. Do not use the NextToken response element directly outside of the AWS CLI.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command's default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on
  • off
  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal's quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To view the grants that a principal can retire

The following list-retirable-grants example displays all of the grants that the ExampleAdmin user can retire on the KMS keys in an AWS account and Region. You can use a command like this one to view the grants that any account principal can retire on KMS keys in the AWS account and Region.

The value of the required retiring-principal parameter must be the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an account, user, or role.

You cannot specify a service for the value of retiring-principal in this command, even though a service can be the retiring principal. To find the grants in which a particular service is the retiring principal, use the list-grants command.

The output shows that ExampleAdmin user has permission to retire grants on two different KMS keys in the account and region. In addition to the retiring principal, the account has permission to retire any grant in the account.

Output

Grants -> (list)

A list of grants.

(structure)

Contains information about a grant.

KeyId -> (string)

The unique identifier for the KMS key to which the grant applies.

GrantId -> (string)

The unique identifier for the grant.

Name -> (string)

The friendly name that identifies the grant. If a name was provided in the CreateGrant request, that name is returned. Otherwise this value is null.

CreationDate -> (timestamp)

The date and time when the grant was created.

GranteePrincipal -> (string)

The identity that gets the permissions in the grant.

The GranteePrincipal field in the ListGrants response usually contains the user or role designated as the grantee principal in the grant. However, when the grantee principal in the grant is an Amazon Web Services service, the GranteePrincipal field contains the service principal , which might represent several different grantee principals.

RetiringPrincipal -> (string)

The principal that can retire the grant.

IssuingAccount -> (string)

The Amazon Web Services account under which the grant was issued.

Operations -> (list)

The list of operations permitted by the grant.

(string)

Constraints -> (structure)

A list of key-value pairs that must be present in the encryption context of certain subsequent operations that the grant allows.

EncryptionContextSubset -> (map)

A list of key-value pairs that must be included in the encryption context of the cryptographic operation request. The grant allows the cryptographic operation only when the encryption context in the request includes the key-value pairs specified in this constraint, although it can include additional key-value pairs.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

EncryptionContextEquals -> (map)

A list of key-value pairs that must match the encryption context in the cryptographic operation request. The grant allows the operation only when the encryption context in the request is the same as the encryption context specified in this constraint.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

NextMarker -> (string)

When Truncated is true, this element is present and contains the value to use for the Marker parameter in a subsequent request.

Truncated -> (boolean)

A flag that indicates whether there are more items in the list. When this value is true, the list in this response is truncated. To get more items, pass the value of the NextMarker element in this response to the Marker parameter in a subsequent request.
