aws-cdk.aws-acmpca
The CDK Construct Library for AWS::ACMPCA
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No for new projects. This is AWS CDK v1, which reached end-of-support on 2023-06-01 and is no longer maintained. If you are already on CDK v1 and need ACMPCA support, it is available and has no known vulnerabilities, but you should plan migration to CDK v2. Do not start new CDK projects with v1.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires AWS CDK v1 core library; AWS CDK v1 is end-of-support as of 2023-06-01 and migration to v2 is recommended.
- Low install friction with stable dependencies.
- However, this is an AWS CDK v1 package that reached end-of-support on 2023-06-01 and is no longer being updated—users should migrate to AWS CDK v2 instead.

What it is and what it does
This is an AWS CDK v1 construct library for AWS Certificate Manager Private CA (ACMPCA). It provides Python bindings to define and manage private certificate authorities in AWS infrastructure-as-code. The package includes high-level `CertificateAuthority` classes for importing existing authorities by ARN, and low-level `Cfn*` classes that map directly to CloudFormation resources for creating new certificate authorities with full control over key algorithms, signing algorithms, and certificate subject properties.
The package depends on aws-cdk.core, constructs, jsii, publication, and typeguard. However, AWS CDK v1 reached end-of-support on 2023-06-01 and is no longer receiving updates. Users building new infrastructure should migrate to AWS CDK v2 rather than start new projects with this package.
Use it for
- Import an existing private certificate authority into a CDK stack to reference it in other constructs
- Define a new private root or subordinate certificate authority using low-level CloudFormation constructs
- Configure certificate authority subject properties (country, organization, common name, etc.) in infrastructure code
- Integrate ACMPCA resources with other AWS services managed via CDK v1
