PUT Origin Access Identity Config

Topics

Description

This action sets the configuration for a CloudFront origin access identity. You use this when updating the configuration (the only part of the configuration you can update is the comments). You must follow the same process when updating an identity's configuration as you do when updating a distribution's configuration. For more information, see PUT Distribution Config.

To set an origin access identity's configuration, you do a PUT on the 2012-07-01/origin-access-identity/CloudFront/<identity ID>/config resource. The request body must include an XML document with a CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityConfig element. The new CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityConfig configuration replaces the existing configuration.

If you try to change configuration items that cannot be changed (the caller reference), CloudFront returns an IllegalUpdate error.
