aws_kms – Perform various KMS management tasks

Synopsis

  • Manage role/user access to a KMS key. Not designed for encrypting/decrypting.

Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

  • python >= 2.6
  • boto

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
alias
-
An alias for a key. For safety, even though KMS does not require keys to have an alias, this module expects all new keys to be given an alias to make them easier to manage. Existing keys without an alias may be referred to by key_id. Use aws_kms_info to find key ids. Required if key_id is not given. Note that passing a key_id and alias will only cause a new alias to be added, an alias will never be renamed. The 'alias/' prefix is optional.

aliases: key_alias
aws_access_key
string
AWS access key. If not set then the value of the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_ACCESS_KEY or EC2_ACCESS_KEY environment variable is used.

aliases: ec2_access_key, access_key
aws_secret_key
string
AWS secret key. If not set then the value of the AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_KEY, or EC2_SECRET_KEY environment variable is used.

aliases: ec2_secret_key, secret_key
debug_botocore_endpoint_logs
boolean
added in 2.8
    Choices:
  • no ←
  • yes
Use a botocore.endpoint logger to parse the unique (rather than total) "resource:action" API calls made during a task, outputing the set to the resource_actions key in the task results. Use the aws_resource_action callback to output to total list made during a playbook. The ANSIBLE_DEBUG_BOTOCORE_LOGS environment variable may also be used.
description
-
added in 2.8
A description of the CMK. Use a description that helps you decide whether the CMK is appropriate for a task.
ec2_url
string
Url to use to connect to EC2 or your Eucalyptus cloud (by default the module will use EC2 endpoints). Ignored for modules where region is required. Must be specified for all other modules if region is not used. If not set then the value of the EC2_URL environment variable, if any, is used.
enabled
boolean
added in 2.8
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes ←
Whether or not a key is enabled
grants
-
added in 2.8
A list of grants to apply to the key. Each item must contain grantee_principal. Each item can optionally contain retiring_principal, operations, constraints, name.
Valid operations are Decrypt, Encrypt, GenerateDataKey, GenerateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext, ReEncryptFrom, ReEncryptTo, CreateGrant, RetireGrant, DescribeKey, Verify and Sign
Constraints is a dict containing encryption_context_subset or encryption_context_equals, either or both being a dict specifying an encryption context match. See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/APIReference/API_GrantConstraints.html
grantee_principal and retiring_principal must be ARNs
key_id
-
Key ID or ARN of the key. One of alias or key_id are required.

aliases: key_arn
policy
-
added in 2.8
policy to apply to the KMS key
policy_clean_invalid_entries
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes ←
(deprecated) If adding/removing a role and invalid grantees are found, remove them. These entries will cause an update to fail in all known cases.
Only cleans if changes are being made.
Used for modifying the Key Policy rather than modifying a grant and only works on the default policy created through the AWS Console.
This option has been deprecated, and will be removed in 2.13. Use policy instead.

aliases: clean_invalid_entries
policy_grant_types
-
(deprecated) List of grants to give to user/role. Likely "role,role grant" or "role,role grant,admin". Required when policy_mode=grant.
Used for modifying the Key Policy rather than modifying a grant and only works on the default policy created through the AWS Console.
This option has been deprecated, and will be removed in 2.13. Use policy instead.

aliases: grant_types
policy_mode
-
    Choices:
  • grant ←
  • deny
(deprecated) Grant or deny access.
Used for modifying the Key Policy rather than modifying a grant and only works on the default policy created through the AWS Console.
This option has been deprecated, and will be removed in 2.13. Use policy instead.

aliases: mode
policy_role_arn
-
(deprecated) ARN of role to allow/deny access. One of policy_role_name or policy_role_arn are required.
Used for modifying the Key Policy rather than modifying a grant and only works on the default policy created through the AWS Console.
This option has been deprecated, and will be removed in 2.13. Use policy instead.

aliases: role_arn
policy_role_name
-
(deprecated) Role to allow/deny access. One of policy_role_name or policy_role_arn are required.
Used for modifying the Key Policy rather than modifying a grant and only works on the default policy created through the AWS Console.
This option has been deprecated, and will be removed in 2.13. Use policy instead.

aliases: role_name
profile
string
Uses a boto profile. Only works with boto >= 2.24.0.
purge_grants
boolean
added in 2.8
    Choices:
  • no ←
  • yes
Whether the grants argument should cause grants not in the list to be removed
purge_tags
boolean
added in 2.8
    Choices:
  • no ←
  • yes
Whether the tags argument should cause tags not in the list to be removed
region
string
The AWS region to use. If not specified then the value of the AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION environment variable, if any, is used. See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#ec2_region

aliases: aws_region, ec2_region
security_token
string
AWS STS security token. If not set then the value of the AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN or EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN environment variable is used.

aliases: access_token
state
-
added in 2.8
    Choices:
  • present ←
  • absent
Whether a key should be present or absent. Note that making an existing key absent only schedules a key for deletion. Passing a key that is scheduled for deletion with state present will cancel key deletion.
tags
-
added in 2.8
A dictionary of tags to apply to a key.
validate_certs
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes ←
When set to "no", SSL certificates will not be validated for boto versions >= 2.6.0.

Notes

Note

  • If parameters are not set within the module, the following environment variables can be used in decreasing order of precedence AWS_URL or EC2_URL, AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID or AWS_ACCESS_KEY or EC2_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY or AWS_SECRET_KEY or EC2_SECRET_KEY, AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN or EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN, AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION
  • Ansible uses the boto configuration file (typically ~/.boto) if no credentials are provided. See https://boto.readthedocs.io/en/latest/boto_config_tut.html
  • AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION can be typically be used to specify the AWS region, when required, but this can also be configured in the boto config file
