AWS Certificate Manager Private Certificate Authority

2019/03/14 - AWS Certificate Manager Private Certificate Authority - 3 new api methods

Changes  Update acm-pca client to latest version

CreatePermission (new) Link ¶

Assigns permissions from a private CA to a designated AWS service. Services are specified by their service principals and can be given permission to create and retrieve certificates on a private CA. Services can also be given permission to list the active permissions that the private CA has granted. For ACM to automatically renew your private CA's certificates, you must assign all possible permissions from the CA to the ACM service principal.

At this time, you can only assign permissions to ACM ( acm.amazonaws.com). Permissions can be revoked with the DeletePermission operation and listed with the ListPermissions operation.
