How to use Boto3 to restore all secret keys from a a specific location in AWS Secret Manager
Problem Statement: Use boto3 library in Python to restore all secret keys from specific location in AWS Secret Manager.
Approach/Algorithm to solve this problem
Step 1: Import boto3 and botocore exceptions to handle exceptions.
Step 2: secret_stored_location is the required parameter.
Step 3: Create an AWS session using boto3 lib. Make sure region_name is mentioned in the default profile. If it is not mentioned, then explicitly pass the region_name while creating the session.
Step 4: Create an AWS client for secretmanager.
Step 5: Call restore_secret and pass the secret_stored_location as SecretId.
Step 6: It returns the metadata of restored secret.
Step 7: Handle the generic exception if something went wrong while restoring secret.
Example Code
Use the following code to restore secrets in AWS secret Manager −
import boto3
from botocore.exceptions import ClientError
def restore_secret_details(secret_stored_location):
session = boto3.session.Session()
s3_client = session.client('secretmanager')
try:
response = s3_client.restore_secret(SecretId=secret_stored_location)
return response
except ClientError as e:
raise Exception("boto3 client error in restore_secret_details: " + e.__str__())
except Exception as e:
raise Exception("Unexpected error in restore_secret_details: " + e.__str__())
a = restore_secret_details('/secrets/aws')
print(a)Output
{'ARN': 'arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-east-1:***************:secret:/secrets/aws-wr1Aj6', 'Name': '/secrets/aws', 'ResponseMetadata': {'RequestId': 'b32fe48d**************ab', 'HTTPStatusCode': 200, 'HTTPHeaders': {'date': 'Sat, 03 Apr 2021 09:40:48 GMT', 'content-type': 'application/x-amz-json-1.1', 'content-length': '197', 'connection': 'keep-alive', 'x-amzn-requestid': *********************************}, 'RetryAttempts': 0}}
