2025/11/21 - AWS Key Management Service - 1 updated api methods
Changes Support for on-demand rotation of AWS KMS Multi-Region keys with imported key material
{'Rotations': {'KeyMaterialState': {'PENDING_MULTI_REGION_IMPORT_AND_ROTATION'}}}
Returns information about the key materials associated with the specified KMS key. You can use the optional IncludeKeyMaterial parameter to control which key materials are included in the response.
You must specify the KMS key in all requests. You can refine the key rotations list by limiting the number of rotations returned.
For detailed information about automatic and on-demand key rotations, see Rotate KMS keys in the Key Management Service Developer Guide.
Cross-account use: No. You cannot perform this operation on a KMS key in a different Amazon Web Services account.
Required permissions: kms:ListKeyRotations (key policy)

Eventual consistency: The KMS API follows an eventual consistency model. For more information, see KMS eventual consistency.

Request Syntax
client.list_key_rotations(
KeyId='string',
IncludeKeyMaterial='ALL_KEY_MATERIAL'|'ROTATIONS_ONLY',
Limit=123,
Marker='string'
)
string
[REQUIRED]
Gets the key rotations for the specified KMS key.
Specify the key ID or key ARN of the KMS key.
For example:
Key ID: 1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab
Key ARN: arn:aws:kms:us-east-2:111122223333:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab
To get the key ID and key ARN for a KMS key, use ListKeys or DescribeKey.
string
Use this optional parameter to control which key materials associated with this key are listed in the response. The default value of this parameter is ROTATIONS_ONLY. If you omit this parameter, KMS returns information on the key materials created by automatic or on-demand key rotation. When you specify a value of ALL_KEY_MATERIAL, KMS adds the first key material and any imported key material pending rotation to the response. This parameter can only be used with KMS keys that support automatic or on-demand key rotation.
integer
Use this parameter to specify the maximum number of items to return. When this value is present, KMS does not return more than the specified number of items, but it might return fewer.
This value is optional. If you include a value, it must be between 1 and 1000, inclusive. If you do not include a value, it defaults to 100.
string
Use this parameter in a subsequent request after you receive a response with truncated results. Set it to the value of NextMarker from the truncated response you just received.

Response Structure
(dict) --
Rotations (list) --
A list of completed key material rotations. When the optional input parameter IncludeKeyMaterial is specified with a value of ALL_KEY_MATERIAL, this list includes the first key material and any imported key material pending rotation.
(dict) --
Each entry contains information about one of the key materials associated with a KMS key.
KeyId (string) --
Unique identifier of the key.
KeyMaterialId (string) --
Unique identifier of the key material.
KeyMaterialDescription (string) --
User-specified description of the key material. This field is only present for symmetric encryption KMS keys with EXTERNAL origin.
ImportState (string) --
Indicates if the key material is currently imported into KMS. It has two possible values: IMPORTED or PENDING_IMPORT. This field is only present for symmetric encryption KMS keys with EXTERNAL origin.
KeyMaterialState (string) --
There are four possible values for this field: CURRENT, NON_CURRENT, PENDING_MULTI_REGION_IMPORT_AND_ROTATION and PENDING_ROTATION. KMS uses CURRENT key material for both encryption and decryption and NON_CURRENT key material only for decryption. PENDING_ROTATION identifies key material that has been imported for on-demand key rotation but the rotation hasn't completed. The key material state PENDING_MULTI_REGION_IMPORT_AND_ROTATION is unique to multi-region, symmetric encryption keys with imported key material. It indicates key material that has been imported into the primary Region key but not all of the replica Region keys. When this key material is imported in to all of the replica Region keys, the key material state will change to PENDING_ROTATION. Key material in PENDING_MULTI_REGION_IMPORT_AND_ROTATION or PENDING_ROTATION state is not permanently associated with the KMS key. You can delete this key material and import different key material in its place. The PENDING_MULTI_REGION_IMPORT_AND_ROTATION and PENDING_ROTATION values are only used in symmetric encryption keys with imported key material. The other values, CURRENT and NON_CURRENT, are used for all KMS keys that support automatic or on-demand key rotation.
ExpirationModel (string) --
Indicates if the key material is configured to automatically expire. There are two possible values for this field: KEY_MATERIAL_EXPIRES and KEY_MATERIAL_DOES_NOT_EXPIRE. For any key material that expires, the expiration date and time is indicated in ValidTo. This field is only present for symmetric encryption KMS keys with EXTERNAL origin.
ValidTo (datetime) --
Date and time at which the key material expires. This field is only present for symmetric encryption KMS keys with EXTERNAL origin in rotation list entries with an ExpirationModel value of KEY_MATERIAL_EXPIRES.
RotationDate (datetime) --
Date and time that the key material rotation completed. Formatted as Unix time. This field is not present for the first key material or an imported key material in PENDING_ROTATION state.
RotationType (string) --
Identifies whether the key material rotation was a scheduled automatic rotation or an on-demand rotation. This field is not present for the first key material or an imported key material in PENDING_ROTATION state.
NextMarker (string) --
When Truncated is true, this element is present and contains the value to use for the Marker parameter in a subsequent request.
Truncated (boolean) --
A flag that indicates whether there are more items in the list. When this value is true, the list in this response is truncated. To get more items, pass the value of the NextMarker element in this response to the Marker parameter in a subsequent request.
