Imports a signed private CA certificate into ACM Private CA. This action is used when you are using a chain of trust whose root is located outside ACM Private CA. Before you can call this action, the following preparations must in place:
acmpca_import_certificate_authority_certificate(CertificateAuthorityArn,
Certificate, CertificateChain)[required] The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) that was returned when you called CreateCertificateAuthority. This must be of the form:
arn:aws:acm-pca:<i>region</i>:<i>account</i>:certificate-authority/<i>12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012</i>
[required] The PEM-encoded certificate for a private CA. This may be a self-signed certificate in the case of a root CA, or it may be signed by another CA that you control.
A PEM-encoded file that contains all of your certificates, other than the certificate you\'re importing, chaining up to your root CA. Your ACM Private CA-hosted or on-premises root certificate is the last in the chain, and each certificate in the chain signs the one preceding.
This parameter must be supplied when you import a subordinate CA. When you import a root CA, there is no chain.
svc$import_certificate_authority_certificate( CertificateAuthorityArn = "string", Certificate = raw, CertificateChain = raw )
In ACM Private CA, call the CreateCertificateAuthority action to create the private CA that that you plan to back with the imported certificate.
Call the GetCertificateAuthorityCsr action to generate a certificate signing request (CSR).
Sign the CSR using a root or intermediate CA hosted either by an on-premises PKI hierarchy or a commercial CA..
Create a certificate chain and copy the signed certificate and the certificate chain to your working directory.
The following requirements apply when you import a CA certificate.
You cannot import a non-self-signed certificate for use as a root CA.
You cannot import a self-signed certificate for use as a subordinate CA.
Your certificate chain must not include the private CA certificate that you are importing.
Your ACM Private CA-hosted or on-premises CA certificate must be the last certificate in your chain. The subordinate certificate, if any, that your root CA signed must be next to last. The subordinate certificate signed by the preceding subordinate CA must come next, and so on until your chain is built.
The chain must be PEM-encoded.
