# `/sys/rotate/config`
|
|
|
|
The `/sys/rotate` endpoint is used to configure automatic key rotation.
|
|
|
|
## Configure Automatic Key Rotation
|
|
|
|
This endpoint configures the automatic rotation of the backend encryption key. By
|
|
default, the key is rotated after just under 4 billion encryptions, to satisfy the
|
|
recommendation of [NIST SP 800-38D](https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/detail/sp/800-38d/final).
|
|
One can configure rotations after fewer encryptions or on a time based schedule.
|
|
|
|
## Create or Update the Auto Rotation Configuration
|
|
|
|
| Method | Path |
|
|
| :------ | :------------------- |
|
|
| `POST` | `/sys/rotate/config` |
|
|
|
|
### Parameters
|
|
|
|
- `max_operations` `(int: 3865470566)` - Specify the limit of encryptions after which
|
|
the key will be automatically rotated. The number cannot be higher than
|
|
the default. Specifing 0 resets max_operations to the default.
|
|
- `interval` `(string: "") - If set, the age of the active key at which an
|
|
automatic rotation is triggered. Specified as a Go duration string (e.g. 4320h)
|
|
- `enabled` `(bool: true)` - If set to false, automatic rotations will not
|
|
be performed. Tracking of encryption counts will continue.
|
|
|
|
