Certificate Management Service:UpdateCACertificateStatus

Last Updated:Dec 16, 2025

Changes the status of a root Certificate Authority (CA) certificate or an intermediate CA certificate from ISSUE to REVOKE.

Operation description

When you create a Certificate Authority (CA) certificate, its status is ISSUE by default. You can call this API operation to change the status of a CA certificate from ISSUE to REVOKE. A CA certificate in the ISSUE state can be used to issue certificates. A CA certificate in the REVOKE state cannot be used to issue certificates, and all certificates issued by this CA certificate become invalid.

Before you call this API operation, create a root CA certificate by calling CreateRootCACertificate and an intermediate CA certificate by calling CreateSubCACertificate.

QPS limit

This operation is limited to 10 queries per second (QPS) for each user. If you exceed this limit, API calls are throttled. This may affect your business. Plan your calls accordingly.

Try it now

Try this API in OpenAPI Explorer, no manual signing needed. Successful calls auto-generate SDK code matching your parameters. Download it with built-in credential security for local usage.

Test

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

  • Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.

  • API: The API that you can call to perform the action.

  • Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.

  • Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.

    • For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.

    • For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.

  • Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.

  • Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.
