Key Management Service:CreateApplicationAccessPoint

Last Updated:Dec 18, 2023

Creates an application access point (AAP)

Usage notes

To perform cryptographic operations and retrieve secret values, self-managed applications must use a client key to access a Key Management Service (KMS) instance. The following process shows how to create a client key-based AAP:

1. Create a network access rule: You can configure the private IP addresses or private CIDR blocks that are allowed to access KMS. For more information, see CreateNetworkRule.

2. Create a permission policy: You can configure the keys and secrets that are allowed to access and bind network access rules to the keys and secrets. For more information, see CreatePolicy.

3. Create an AAP: You can configure an authentication method and bind a permission policy to an AAP. This topic describes how to create an AAP.

4. Create a client key: You can configure the encryption password and validity period of a client key and bind the client key to an AAP. For more information, see CreateClientKey.

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer. OpenAPI Explorer dynamically generates the sample code of the operation for different SDKs.
