Creates a SCEP connector. A SCEP connector links Amazon Web Services Private Certificate Authority to your SCEP-compatible devices and mobile device management (MDM) systems. Before you create a connector, you must complete a set of prerequisites, including creation of a private certificate authority (CA) to use with this connector. For more information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/privateca/latest/userguide/scep-connector.htmlconnector-for-scep-prerequisites.html">Connector for SCEP prerequisites</a>.

Request body

CertificateAuthorityArnstring required
<p>The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon Web Services Private Certificate Authority certificate authority to use with this connector. Due to security vulnerabilities present in the SCEP protocol, we recommend using a private CA that's dedicated for use with the connector.</p> <p>To retrieve the private CAs associated with your account, you can call <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/privateca/latest/APIReference/API_ListCertificateAuthorities.html">ListCertificateAuthorities</a> using the Amazon Web Services Private CA API.</p>
VpcEndpointIdstring

If you don't supply a value, by default Connector for SCEP creates a connector accessible over the public internet. If you provide a VPC endpoint ID, creates a connector accessible only through that specific VPC endpoint.

ClientTokenstring

Custom string that can be used to distinguish between calls to the <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/pca-connector-scep/latest/APIReference/API_CreateChallenge.html">CreateChallenge</a> action. Client tokens for <code>CreateChallenge</code> time out after five minutes. Therefore, if you call <code>CreateChallenge</code> multiple times with the same client token within five minutes, Connector for SCEP recognizes that you are requesting only one challenge and will only respond with one. If you change the client token for each call, Connector for SCEP recognizes that you are requesting multiple challenge passwords.
