EnableKeyRotation
Enables automatic rotation of the key material for a KMS key.
Description
The `EnableKeyRotation` operation enables automatic rotation of the key material for a symmetric customer managed KMS key. You cannot enable automatic rotation of asymmetric KMS keys, KMS keys in custom key stores, or AWS managed keys.
note
- When you enable key rotation, QKMS automatically creates new cryptographic material for the KMS key one year after enabling and every year thereafter.
- The KMS key that you use for this operation must be in a compatible key state.
- You cannot enable automatic rotation for AWS managed keys.
