Key Lifecycle Rules

A KeyLifecycleRule represents a rule that applies to API keys, GPG keys, and SSH keys (also called User Public Keys) based on their inactivity or age.

Keys that have been unused for the specified number of days will be deleted. SSH keys can also be configured to expire after a specified number of days. SSH key expiration applies only to User Public Keys used for inbound SFTP/SSH login, not Remote Server outbound SSH keys.
