Creating a Secret Version

Function

Creates a new secret version in the specified secret to encrypt and keep the new secret value. By default, The latest secret version in SYSCURRENT state. The previous version is in the SYSPREVIOUS state. You can overwrite the default behavior by specifying the VersionStage parameter.

Constraints

  • On the CSMS console, only the secret_string field can be configured. To add binary secrets to the secret_binary field, use an SDK or API. * A secret can have up to 20 versions in CSMS. * You can only add versions to enabled secrets. * Secret versions are numbered v1, v2, v3, and so on based on their creation time.

Table 3 Request body parameters

Parameter

Mandatory

Type

Description

secret_binary

No

String

Value of a new secret. The value is encrypted and stored in the initial version of the secret. Type: Base64-encoded binary data object Constraint: Either secret_binary or secret_string must be configured. The maximum size is 32 KB.

secret_string

No

String

Value of a new secret. The value is encrypted and stored in the initial version of the secret. Constraint: Either secret_binary or secret_string must be configured. The maximum size is 32 KB.

version_stages

No

Array of strings

Version status added to a secret version when the version is stored. If you do not specify this parameter, secret manager defaults to SYSCURRENT for the new version. Constraint: The array can contain up to 12 elements. The stage length can be up to 64 bytes.

expire_time

No

Long

Expiration time of the secret version. The value is a timestamp, that is, the total number of seconds from January 1, 1970 to the current time. Value based on which the validity period is determined when the secret subscribes to the version expiration event type. This parameter is left blank by default.

Response Parameters

Table 4 Response body parameters

Parameter

Type

Description

version_metadata

VersionMetadata object

Status of a secret version.

Table 5 VersionMetadata

Parameter

Type

Description

id

String

Secret version ID, which is unique under a secret object.

create_time

Long

Time when a secret version was created. The timestamp indicates the total seconds since January 1, 1970.

expire_time

Long

Expiration time of the secret version. The value is a timestamp, that is, the total number of seconds from January 1, 1970 to the time. When the secret subscribes to the version expiration event type, the validity period is determined based on this parameter. This parameter is left blank by default.

kms_key_id

String

ID of the KMS CMK used to encrypt a secret version value.

secret_name

String

Secret name

version_stages

Array of strings

Secret version status list. Every version status is unique under a secret. If you add a status tag in use to a new version, the tag will be automatically removed from the old version. If version_stage is not specified, the temporary tag SYSCURRENT will be added to this version.
