Revoking a Grant¶
You can revoke a grant on the KMS console in either of the following scenarios:
A grantee does not need the grant. (The grantee can either tell the user who has created the grant to revoke the grant or call the necessary API to revoke the grant directly.)
You do not want the grantee to have the grant.
When a grant is revoked, the grantee does not have the corresponding permission anymore. However, if the grantee has created the same grant to another user, permission of that user will not be affected.
This section describes how to revoke a grant on the KMS console.
