How to update AWS Secrets Manager via python?

Question

I can't find any documentation on how to upload/update values to the AWS secrets manager. I can only retrieve the values via python. Is there a workaround on this?

Answer 1

You can use update_secret():

response = client.update_secret(
    SecretId='string',
    ClientRequestToken='string',
    Description='string',
    KmsKeyId='string',
    SecretBinary=b'bytes',
    SecretString='string'
)

For creating new secrets, use: put_secret_value()
