events.create_connection does not create secret

Something to consider:

In AWS after creating a connection, the follow up describe_connection response will have a SecretArn set, which will contain the AuthParameters.

connection_response = boto3.client("events").create_connection(
        Name="my-destination",
        Description="my-destination",
        AuthorizationType='API_KEY',
        AuthParameters = {
            'ApiKeyAuthParameters': {
                'ApiKeyName': 'X-Api-Key',
                'ApiKeyValue': 'password'
            }
        }
    )

describe_connection should return a SecretArn, which is transparently created as the "ApiKeyAuthParameters" dictionary in practice (i.e. its a JSON document with two fields).

I am not totally sure of the full behaviour. I guess it requires some empiricism to figure out. Let me know if filing these vague tickets is helpful.

Hi @tomlarkworthy, that's definitely helpful - we should be able to figure out what AWS exactly does here behind the scenes, it seems fairly straightforward.
Thanks for raising this!
