delete_secret async

Deletes a secret from AWS Secrets Manager.

Secrets can either be deleted immediately by setting force_delete_without_recovery equal to True. Otherwise, secrets will be marked for deletion and available for recovery for the number of days specified in recovery_window_in_days

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
secret_name str

Name of the secret to be deleted.

required
aws_credentials AwsCredentials

Credentials to use for authentication with AWS.

            before permanent deletion. Minium window is 7 days and maximum window
            is 30 days. If `force_delete_without_recovery` is set to `True`, this
            value will be ignored.
        force_delete_without_recovery: If `True`, the secret will be immediately
            deleted and will not be recoverable.

    Returns:
        A dict containing the secret ARN (Amazon Resource Name),
            name, and deletion date of the secret. DeletionDate is the date and
            time of the delete request plus the number of days in
            `recovery_window_in_days`.
