  - `description` string, nullable — An optional description for the LiteLLM API Key Rotation.
  - `connectionId` string, uuid, required — The ID of the LiteLLM Connection to use for rotation.
  - `environment` string, required — The slug of the project environment to create the rotation in.
  - `secretPath` string, required — The secret path of the project to create the rotation in.
  - `isAutoRotationEnabled` boolean — Whether secrets should be automatically rotated when the specified rotation interval has elapsed.
  - `rotationInterval` number, required — The interval, in days, to automatically rotate secrets.
  - `rotateAtUtc` object — The hours and minutes rotation should occur at in UTC. Defaults to Midnight (00:00) UTC.

Reserved fields (key_alias, auto_rotate, rotation_interval, duration, send_invite_email, key_type, user_id, team_id, models) are managed by Infisical or set via dedicated fields and cannot be set here.
    - `userId` string — The ID of the LiteLLM user to associate the generated key with.
    - `teamId` string — The ID of the LiteLLM team to associate the generated key with.
    - `models` string[] — The list of model names the generated key is allowed to access. An empty list allows all models.
