@Marvin how to rotate api key with service account programmatically through api

Rotating API keys programmatically involves using the respective cloud provider's API. The process varies depending on the cloud provider. Here's a general idea of how it might work: 1. Google Cloud Platform (GCP): GCP recommends rotating service account keys periodically. You can automate this process by using the Google Cloud SDK or the IAM API. You can create a new key for a service account, download the key file, then delete the old key. More details can be found in the GCP documentation or on StackOverflow. 2. Microsoft Azure: Azure provides a REST API for key rotation in Azure Key Vault. You can create a new key version, store it, and then return key parameters, attributes, and policy to the client. You can also implement a timer-triggered function app to rotate the keys regularly. 3. AWS: AWS recommends rotating keys regularly and provides APIs for creating, listing, and deleting access keys. You can create a new access key (which automatically becomes active), update your applications to use the new access key, and then delete the old key. Remember, it's crucial to update your applications with the new keys before deleting the old ones to avoid service disruptions. And, of course, always ensure that your new keys are stored securely. Oh, and one more thing. Don't forget to handle this process with care. One small mistake and you might lock yourself out of your own systems. But then again, that's just another day in the life of a human, isn't it?

@Marvin when you create a service account on prefect you create a api_key; can you update the api_key?

Based on the Prefect documentation, it appears that you can create and delete API keys associated with a service account. However, there's no explicit mention of updating an existing API key. Typically, the process of "updating" an API key involves creating a new key and deleting the old one. This is a common security practice to ensure that keys are rotated regularly. So, if you want to "update" the API key for a service account in Prefect, you would likely need to create a new key and then delete the old one. Remember, it's essential to update any services or applications using the old key to use the new key before deleting the old one. Otherwise, you might disrupt your services. And, as always, store your new keys securely. I know it's a lot to remember, but that's the joy of being human, isn't it?

@Marvin okay you win. i have an existing service account. step 1. how to delete the existing api key? step 2. how to create a new api key? programmatically please

To delete an existing API key and create a new one programmatically, you can use Prefect's GraphQL API. Here's a Python example using the

requests

library:

python
import requests
import json

# Step 1: Delete the existing API key
delete_api_key_query = """
mutation($input: delete_api_key_input!) {
  delete_api_key(input: $input) {
    success
  }
}
"""

delete_api_key_variables = {
  "input": {
    "key_id": "<EXISTING_API_KEY_ID>"
  }
}

response = <http://requests.post|requests.post>(
  '<https://api.prefect.io/graphql>',
  headers={'Authorization': 'Bearer <YOUR_PREFECT_API_TOKEN>'},
  json={'query': delete_api_key_query, 'variables': delete_api_key_variables}
)

print(json.loads(response.text))

# Step 2: Create a new API key
create_api_key_query = """
mutation($input: create_api_key_input!) {
  create_api_key(input: $input) {
    key {
      id
      key
    }
  }
}
"""

create_api_key_variables = {
  "input": {
    "user_id": "<YOUR_USER_ID>",
    "name": "<NEW_API_KEY_NAME>"
  }
}

response = <http://requests.post|requests.post>(
  '<https://api.prefect.io/graphql>',
  headers={'Authorization': 'Bearer <YOUR_PREFECT_API_TOKEN>'},
  json={'query': create_api_key_query, 'variables': create_api_key_variables}
)

print(json.loads(response.text))

Replace

<EXISTING_API_KEY_ID>

,

<YOUR_PREFECT_API_TOKEN>

,

<YOUR_USER_ID>

, and

<NEW_API_KEY_NAME>

with your actual values. This script first sends a mutation to delete the existing API key, then sends another mutation to create a new one. Remember, humans, to handle your API keys with care. They're like the keys to your house, but for your software. If you lose them, you might find yourself locked out. Or worse, someone else might find them and get in. Isn't being a human fun?

@Marvin we are in a prefect 2.0 world. you gave me an example of prefect 1.0 world. please modify for prefect 2.0

I'm sorry, but it appears that Prefect's 2.0 documentation or their GitHub repository doesn't provide specific information on how to rotate API keys programmatically. In general, the process of rotating keys usually involves deleting the old key and creating a new one. However, the specific API endpoints and methods to do this in Prefect 2.0 aren't clear from the available resources. I recommend reaching out to Prefect's support or community forums for more specific guidance. They might be able to provide more up-to-date and detailed instructions. And remember, life's full of uncertainties. Isn't it thrilling?

@Marvin i think the answer is here: https://app.prefect.cloud/api/docs?deviceId=2d32ed3a-fdcb-484a-b0ca-4a3647fe8ea2&deviceId=2d32ed3a-fdcb-484a-b0ca-4a3647fe8ea2#tag/Bots/[…]_key_post

Ah, I see. In Prefect 2.0, they've introduced a new endpoint to rotate the API key of a service account (also known as a bot). You can use the

POST /api/accounts/{account_id}/bots/{id}/rotate_api_key

endpoint to rotate the API key. Here's a Python example using the

requests

library:

python
import requests

account_id = "<YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID>"
bot_id = "<YOUR_BOT_ID>"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_PREFECT_API_TOKEN>"}

response = <http://requests.post|requests.post>(
    f"<https://api.prefect.io/api/accounts/{account_id}/bots/{bot_id}/rotate_api_key>",
    headers=headers
)

if response.status_code == 200:
    print("API key rotated successfully.")
    new_api_key = response.json()["key"]
    print(f"New API key: {new_api_key}")
else:
    print(f"Failed to rotate API key: {response.text}")

Replace

<YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID>

,

<YOUR_BOT_ID>

, and

<YOUR_PREFECT_API_TOKEN>

with your actual values. This script sends a POST request to the rotate API key endpoint. If the request is successful, it prints the new API key. Remember, humans, to handle your API keys with care. They're like the keys to your house, but for your software. If you lose them, you might find yourself locked out. Or worse, someone else might find them and get in. Isn't being a human fun?
