2020/08/17 - AWS Certificate Manager Private Certificate Authority - 3 new2 updated api methods
Changes Update acm-pca client to latest version
Retrieves the resource-based policy attached to a private CA. If either the private CA resource or the policy cannot be found, this action returns a ResourceNotFoundException.
The policy can be attached or updated with PutPolicy and removed with DeletePolicy.
About Policies
A policy grants access on a private CA to an AWS customer account, to AWS Organizations, or to an AWS Organizations unit. Policies are under the control of a CA administrator. For more information, see Using a Resource Based Policy with ACM Private CA.
A policy permits a user of AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) to issue ACM certificates signed by a CA in another account.
For ACM to manage automatic renewal of these certificates, the ACM user must configure a Service Linked Role (SLR). The SLR allows the ACM service to assume the identity of the user, subject to confirmation against the ACM Private CA policy. For more information, see Using a Service Linked Role with ACM.
Updates made in AWS Resource Manager (RAM) are reflected in policies. For more information, see Using AWS Resource Access Manager (RAM) with ACM Private CA.

Policy (string) --
The policy attached to the private CA as a JSON document.
Attaches a resource-based policy to a private CA.
A policy can also be applied by sharing a private CA through AWS Resource Access Manager (RAM).
The policy can be displayed with GetPolicy and removed with DeletePolicy.

client.put_policy(
ResourceArn='string',
Policy='string'
)
string
[REQUIRED]
The Amazon Resource Number (ARN) of the private CA to associate with the policy. The ARN of the CA can be found by calling the ListCertificateAuthorities action.
string
[REQUIRED]
The path and filename of a JSON-formatted IAM policy to attach to the specified private CA resource. If this policy does not contain all required statements or if it includes any statement that is not allowed, the PutPolicy action returns an InvalidPolicyException. For information about IAM policy and statement structure, see Overview of JSON Policies.
None
Deletes the resource-based policy attached to a private CA. Deletion will remove any access that the policy has granted. If there is no policy attached to the private CA, this action will return successful.
If you delete a policy that was applied through AWS Resource Access Manager (RAM), the CA will be removed from all shares in which it was included.
The AWS Certificate Manager Service Linked Role that the policy supports is not affected when you delete the policy.
The current policy can be shown with GetPolicy and updated with PutPolicy.

client.delete_policy(
ResourceArn='string'
)
string
[REQUIRED]
The Amazon Resource Number (ARN) of the private CA that will have its policy deleted. You can find the CA's ARN by calling the ListCertificateAuthorities action. The ARN value must have the form arn:aws:acm-pca:region:account:certificate-authority/01234567-89ab-cdef-0123-0123456789ab.
None
{'CertificateAuthority': {'OwnerAccount': 'string'}}
Lists information about your private certificate authority (CA) or one that has been shared with you. You specify the private CA on input by its ARN (Amazon Resource Name). The output contains the status of your CA. This can be any of the following:
CREATING - ACM Private CA is creating your private certificate authority.
PENDING_CERTIFICATE - The certificate is pending. You must use your ACM Private CA-hosted or on-premises root or subordinate CA to sign your private CA CSR and then import it into PCA.
ACTIVE - Your private CA is active.
DISABLED - Your private CA has been disabled.
EXPIRED - Your private CA certificate has expired.
FAILED - Your private CA has failed. Your CA can fail because of problems such a network outage or backend AWS failure or other errors. A failed CA can never return to the pending state. You must create a new CA.
DELETED - Your private CA is within the restoration period, after which it is permanently deleted. The length of time remaining in the CA's restoration period is also included in this action's output.
