UntagResource - AWS Key Management Service

UntagResource

Deletes tags from a customer managed key. To delete a tag, specify the tag key and the KMS key.

Note

Tagging or untagging a KMS key can allow or deny permission to the KMS key. For details, see ABAC for AWS KMS in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide.

When it succeeds, the UntagResource operation doesn't return any output. Also, if the specified tag key isn't found on the KMS key, it doesn't throw an exception or return a response. To confirm that the operation worked, use the ListResourceTags operation.

For information about using tags in AWS KMS, see Tagging keys. For general information about tags, including the format and syntax, see Tagging AWS resources in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

The KMS key that you use for this operation must be in a compatible key state. For details, see Key states of AWS KMS keys in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide.

Cross-account use: No. You cannot perform this operation on a KMS key in a different AWS account.

Required permissions: kms:UntagResource (key policy)

Eventual consistency: The AWS KMS API follows an eventual consistency model. For more information, see AWS KMS eventual consistency.

Request Parameters

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

Note

In the following list, the required parameters are described first.

KeyId

Identifies the KMS key from which you are removing tags.

Specify the key ID or key ARN of the KMS key.

For example:

  • Key ID: 1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab

  • Key ARN: arn:aws:kms:us-east-2:111122223333:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab

To get the key ID and key ARN for a KMS key, use ListKeys or DescribeKey.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 2048.

Required: Yes

TagKeys

One or more tag keys. Specify only the tag keys, not the tag values.

This exceptions means one of the following:

  • The key state of the KMS key is not compatible with the operation.

    To find the key state, use the DescribeKey operation. For more information about which key states are compatible with each AWS KMS operation, see Key states of AWS KMS keys in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide .

  • For cryptographic operations on KMS keys in custom key stores, this exception represents a general failure with many possible causes. To identify the cause, see the error message that accompanies the exception.

HTTP Status Code: 400

NotFoundException
