acmpca_revoke_certificate: Revokes a certificate that was issued inside Amazon Web Services Private CA

Description

Revokes a certificate that was issued inside Amazon Web Services Private CA. If you enable a certificate revocation list (CRL) when you create or update your private CA, information about the revoked certificates will be included in the CRL. Amazon Web Services Private CA writes the CRL to an S3 bucket that you specify. A CRL is typically updated approximately 30 minutes after a certificate is revoked. If for any reason the CRL update fails, Amazon Web Services Private CA attempts makes further attempts every 15 minutes. With Amazon CloudWatch, you can create alarms for the metrics CRLGenerated and MisconfiguredCRLBucket. For more information, see Supported CloudWatch Metrics.

CertificateAuthorityArn

[required] Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the private CA that issued the certificate to be revoked. This must be of the form:

You can retrieve the serial number by calling get_certificate with the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the certificate you want and the ARN of your private CA.
