Client: Aws\Transfer\TransferClient
Service ID: transfer
Version: 2018-11-05

This page describes the parameters and results for the operations of the AWS Transfer Family (2018-11-05), and shows how to use the Aws\Transfer\TransferClient object to call the described operations. This documentation is specific to the 2018-11-05 API version of the service.

Operation Summary

Each of the following operations can be created from a client using $client->getCommand('CommandName'), where "CommandName" is the name of one of the following operations. Note: a command is a value that encapsulates an operation and the parameters used to create an HTTP request.

You can also create and send a command immediately using the magic methods available on a client object: $client->commandName(/* parameters */). You can send the command asynchronously (returning a promise) by appending the word "Async" to the operation name: $client->commandNameAsync(/* parameters */).

Operations

CreateAccess

$result = $client->createAccess([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createAccessAsync([/* ... */]);

Used by administrators to choose which groups in the directory should have access to upload and download files over the enabled protocols using Transfer Family. For example, a Microsoft Active Directory might contain 50,000 users, but only a small fraction might need the ability to transfer files to the server. An administrator can use CreateAccess to limit the access to the correct set of users who need this ability.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createAccess([
    'ExternalId' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'HomeDirectory' => '<string>',
    'HomeDirectoryMappings' => [
        [
            'Entry' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
            'Target' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
            'Type' => 'FILE|DIRECTORY',
        ],
        // ...
    ],
    'HomeDirectoryType' => 'PATH|LOGICAL',
    'Policy' => '<string>',
    'PosixProfile' => [
        'Gid' => <integer>, // REQUIRED
        'SecondaryGids' => [<integer>, ...],
        'Uid' => <integer>, // REQUIRED
    ],
    'Role' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'ServerId' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
]);

Parameter Details

Members
ExternalId
Required: Yes
Type: string

A unique identifier that is required to identify specific groups within your directory. The users of the group that you associate have access to your Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS resources over the enabled protocols using Transfer Family. If you know the group name, you can view the SID values by running the following command using Windows PowerShell.

Get-ADGroup -Filter {samAccountName -like "YourGroupName*"} -Properties * | Select SamAccountName,ObjectSid

In that command, replace YourGroupName with the name of your Active Directory group.

The regular expression used to validate this parameter is a string of characters consisting of uppercase and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces. You can also include underscores or any of the following characters: =,.@:/-

HomeDirectory
Type: string

The landing directory (folder) for a user when they log in to the server using the client.

A HomeDirectory example is /bucket_name/home/mydirectory.

The HomeDirectory parameter is only used if HomeDirectoryType is set to PATH.

HomeDirectoryMappings
Type: Array of HomeDirectoryMapEntry structures

Logical directory mappings that specify what Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS paths and keys should be visible to your user and how you want to make them visible. You must specify the Entry and Target pair, where Entry shows how the path is made visible and Target is the actual Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS path. If you only specify a target, it is displayed as is. You also must ensure that your Identity and Access Management (IAM) role provides access to paths in Target. This value can be set only when HomeDirectoryType is set to LOGICAL.

The following is an Entry and Target pair example.

[ { "Entry": "/directory1", "Target": "/bucket_name/home/mydirectory" } ]

In most cases, you can use this value instead of the session policy to lock down your user to the designated home directory ("chroot"). To do this, you can set Entry to / and set Target to the HomeDirectory parameter value.

The following is an Entry and Target pair example for chroot.

[ { "Entry": "/", "Target": "/bucket_name/home/mydirectory" } ]

HomeDirectoryType
Type: string

The type of landing directory (folder) that you want your users' home directory to be when they log in to the server. If you set it to PATH, the user will see the absolute Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS path as is in their file transfer protocol clients. If you set it to LOGICAL, you need to provide mappings in the HomeDirectoryMappings for how you want to make Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS paths visible to your users.

If HomeDirectoryType is LOGICAL, you must provide mappings, using the HomeDirectoryMappings parameter. If, on the other hand, HomeDirectoryType is PATH, you provide an absolute path using the HomeDirectory parameter. You cannot have both HomeDirectory and HomeDirectoryMappings in your template.

Policy
Type: string

A session policy for your user so that you can use the same Identity and Access Management (IAM) role across multiple users. This policy scopes down a user's access to portions of their Amazon S3 bucket. Variables that you can use inside this policy include ${Transfer:UserName}, ${Transfer:HomeDirectory}, and ${Transfer:HomeBucket}.

This policy applies only when the domain of ServerId is Amazon S3. Amazon EFS does not use session policies.

For session policies, Transfer Family stores the policy as a JSON blob, instead of the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the policy. You save the policy as a JSON blob and pass it in the Policy argument.

For an example of a session policy, see Example session policy.

For more information, see AssumeRole in the Security Token Service API Reference.

PosixProfile
Type: PosixProfile structure

The full POSIX identity, including user ID (Uid), group ID (Gid), and any secondary groups IDs (SecondaryGids), that controls your users' access to your Amazon EFS file systems. The POSIX permissions that are set on files and directories in your file system determine the level of access your users get when transferring files into and out of your Amazon EFS file systems.

Role
Required: Yes
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that controls your users' access to your Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS file system. The policies attached to this role determine the level of access that you want to provide your users when transferring files into and out of your Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS file system. The IAM role should also contain a trust relationship that allows the server to access your resources when servicing your users' transfer requests.

ServerId
Required: Yes
Type: string

A system-assigned unique identifier for a server instance. This is the specific server that you added your user to.

Result Syntax

[
    'ExternalId' => '<string>',
    'ServerId' => '<string>',
]

Result Details

Members
ExternalId
Required: Yes
Type: string

ServerId
Required: Yes
Type: string

The identifier of the server that the user is attached to.

Errors

CreateAgreement

$result = $client->createAgreement([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createAgreementAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates an agreement. An agreement is a bilateral trading partner agreement, or partnership, between an Transfer Family server and an AS2 process. The agreement defines the file and message transfer relationship between the server and the AS2 process. To define an agreement, Transfer Family combines a server, local profile, partner profile, certificate, and other attributes.

The partner is identified with the PartnerProfileId, and the AS2 process is identified with the LocalProfileId.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createAgreement([
    'AccessRole' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'BaseDirectory' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'Description' => '<string>',
    'LocalProfileId' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'PartnerProfileId' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'ServerId' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

            'Value' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
        ],
        // ...
    ],
]);

Parameter Details

Members
AccessRole
Required: Yes
Type: string

Connectors are used to send files using either the AS2 or SFTP protocol. For the access role, provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management role to use.

For AS2 connectors

With AS2, you can send files by calling StartFileTransfer and specifying the file paths in the request parameter, SendFilePaths. We use the file’s parent directory (for example, for --send-file-paths /bucket/dir/file.txt, parent directory is /bucket/dir/) to temporarily store a processed AS2 message file, store the MDN when we receive them from the partner, and write a final JSON file containing relevant metadata of the transmission. So, the AccessRole needs to provide read and write access to the parent directory of the file location used in the StartFileTransfer request. Additionally, you need to provide read and write access to the parent directory of the files that you intend to send with StartFileTransfer.

If you are using Basic authentication for your AS2 connector, the access role requires the secretsmanager:GetSecretValue permission for the secret. If the secret is encrypted using a customer-managed key instead of the Amazon Web Services managed key in Secrets Manager, then the role also needs the kms:Decrypt permission for that key.

For SFTP connectors

Make sure that the access role provides read and write access to the parent directory of the file location that's used in the StartFileTransfer request. Additionally, make sure that the role provides secretsmanager:GetSecretValue permission to Secrets Manager.

BaseDirectory
Required: Yes
Type: string

The landing directory (folder) for files transferred by using the AS2 protocol.

A BaseDirectory example is /DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/home/mydirectory.

Description
Type: string

A name or short description to identify the agreement.

LocalProfileId
Required: Yes
Type: string

A unique identifier for the AS2 local profile.

PartnerProfileId
Required: Yes
Type: string

A unique identifier for the partner profile used in the agreement.

ServerId
Required: Yes
Type: string

A system-assigned unique identifier for a server instance. This is the specific server that the agreement uses.

Status
Type: string

The status of the agreement. The agreement can be either ACTIVE or INACTIVE.

Tags
Type: Array of Tag structures

Key-value pairs that can be used to group and search for agreements.

Result Syntax

[
    'AgreementId' => '<string>',

Parameter Details

Members
Certificate
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Certificate Manager (ACM) certificate. Required when Protocols is set to FTPS.

To request a new public certificate, see Request a public certificate in the Certificate Manager User Guide.

To import an existing certificate into ACM, see Importing certificates into ACM in the Certificate Manager User Guide.

To request a private certificate to use FTPS through private IP addresses, see Request a private certificate in the Certificate Manager User Guide.

Certificates with the following cryptographic algorithms and key sizes are supported:

  • 2048-bit RSA (RSA_2048)

  • 4096-bit RSA (RSA_4096)

  • Elliptic Prime Curve 256 bit (EC_prime256v1)

  • Elliptic Prime Curve 384 bit (EC_secp384r1)

  • Elliptic Prime Curve 521 bit (EC_secp521r1)

The certificate must be a valid SSL/TLS X.509 version 3 certificate with FQDN or IP address specified and information about the issuer.

Domain
Type: string

The domain of the storage system that is used for file transfers. There are two domains available: Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) and Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS). The default value is S3.

After the server is created, the domain cannot be changed.

EndpointDetails
Type: EndpointDetails structure

The virtual private cloud (VPC) endpoint settings that are configured for your server. When you host your endpoint within your VPC, you can make your endpoint accessible only to resources within your VPC, or you can attach Elastic IP addresses and make your endpoint accessible to clients over the internet. Your VPC's default security groups are automatically assigned to your endpoint.

EndpointType
Type: string

The type of endpoint that you want your server to use. You can choose to make your server's endpoint publicly accessible (PUBLIC) or host it inside your VPC. With an endpoint that is hosted in a VPC, you can restrict access to your server and resources only within your VPC or choose to make it internet facing by attaching Elastic IP addresses directly to it.

After May 19, 2021, you won't be able to create a server using EndpointType=VPC_ENDPOINT in your Amazon Web Services account if your account hasn't already done so before May 19, 2021. If you have already created servers with EndpointType=VPC_ENDPOINT in your Amazon Web Services account on or before May 19, 2021, you will not be affected. After this date, use EndpointType=VPC.

For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/transfer/latest/userguide/create-server-in-vpc.html#deprecate-vpc-endpoint.

It is recommended that you use VPC as the EndpointType. With this endpoint type, you have the option to directly associate up to three Elastic IPv4 addresses (BYO IP included) with your server's endpoint and use VPC security groups to restrict traffic by the client's public IP address. This is not possible with EndpointType set to VPC_ENDPOINT.

HostKey
Type: string

The RSA, ECDSA, or ED25519 private key to use for your SFTP-enabled server. You can add multiple host keys, in case you want to rotate keys, or have a set of active keys that use different algorithms.

Use the following command to generate an RSA 2048 bit key with no passphrase:

ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 2048 -N "" -m PEM -f my-new-server-key.

Use a minimum value of 2048 for the -b option. You can create a stronger key by using 3072 or 4096.

Use the following command to generate an ECDSA 256 bit key with no passphrase:

ssh-keygen -t ecdsa -b 256 -N "" -m PEM -f my-new-server-key.

Valid values for the -b option for ECDSA are 256, 384, and 521.

Use the following command to generate an ED25519 key with no passphrase:

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -N "" -f my-new-server-key.

For all of these commands, you can replace my-new-server-key with a string of your choice.

If you aren't planning to migrate existing users from an existing SFTP-enabled server to a new server, don't update the host key. Accidentally changing a server's host key can be disruptive.

For more information, see Manage host keys for your SFTP-enabled server in the Transfer Family User Guide.

IdentityProviderDetails
Type: IdentityProviderDetails structure

Required when IdentityProviderType is set to AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE, Amazon Web Services_LAMBDA or API_GATEWAY. Accepts an array containing all of the information required to use a directory in AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE or invoke a customer-supplied authentication API, including the API Gateway URL. Not required when IdentityProviderType is set to SERVICE_MANAGED.

IdentityProviderType
Type: string

The mode of authentication for a server. The default value is SERVICE_MANAGED, which allows you to store and access user credentials within the Transfer Family service.

Use AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE to provide access to Active Directory groups in Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory or Microsoft Active Directory in your on-premises environment or in Amazon Web Services using AD Connector. This option also requires you to provide a Directory ID by using the IdentityProviderDetails parameter.

Use the API_GATEWAY value to integrate with an identity provider of your choosing. The API_GATEWAY setting requires you to provide an Amazon API Gateway endpoint URL to call for authentication by using the IdentityProviderDetails parameter.

Use the AWS_LAMBDA value to directly use an Lambda function as your identity provider. If you choose this value, you must specify the ARN for the Lambda function in the Function parameter for the IdentityProviderDetails data type.

LoggingRole
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that allows a server to turn on Amazon CloudWatch logging for Amazon S3 or Amazon EFSevents. When set, you can view user activity in your CloudWatch logs.

PostAuthenticationLoginBanner
Type: string

Specifies a string to display when users connect to a server. This string is displayed after the user authenticates.

The SFTP protocol does not support post-authentication display banners.

PreAuthenticationLoginBanner
Type: string

Specifies a string to display when users connect to a server. This string is displayed before the user authenticates. For example, the following banner displays details about using the system:

This system is for the use of authorized users only. Individuals using this computer system without authority, or in excess of their authority, are subject to having all of their activities on this system monitored and recorded by system personnel.

ProtocolDetails
Type: ProtocolDetails structure

The protocol settings that are configured for your server.

  • To indicate passive mode (for FTP and FTPS protocols), use the PassiveIp parameter. Enter a single dotted-quad IPv4 address, such as the external IP address of a firewall, router, or load balancer.

  • To ignore the error that is generated when the client attempts to use the SETSTAT command on a file that you are uploading to an Amazon S3 bucket, use the SetStatOption parameter. To have the Transfer Family server ignore the SETSTAT command and upload files without needing to make any changes to your SFTP client, set the value to ENABLE_NO_OP. If you set the SetStatOption parameter to ENABLE_NO_OP, Transfer Family generates a log entry to Amazon CloudWatch Logs, so that you can determine when the client is making a SETSTAT call.

  • To determine whether your Transfer Family server resumes recent, negotiated sessions through a unique session ID, use the TlsSessionResumptionMode parameter.

  • As2Transports indicates the transport method for the AS2 messages. Currently, only HTTP is supported.

Protocols
Type: Array of strings

Specifies the file transfer protocol or protocols over which your file transfer protocol client can connect to your server's endpoint. The available protocols are:

  • SFTP (Secure Shell (SSH) File Transfer Protocol): File transfer over SSH

  • FTPS (File Transfer Protocol Secure): File transfer with TLS encryption

  • FTP (File Transfer Protocol): Unencrypted file transfer

  • AS2 (Applicability Statement 2): used for transporting structured business-to-business data

  • If you select FTPS, you must choose a certificate stored in Certificate Manager (ACM) which is used to identify your server when clients connect to it over FTPS.

  • If Protocol includes either FTP or FTPS, then the EndpointType must be VPC and the IdentityProviderType must be either AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE, AWS_LAMBDA, or API_GATEWAY.

  • If Protocol includes FTP, then AddressAllocationIds cannot be associated.

  • If Protocol is set only to SFTP, the EndpointType can be set to PUBLIC and the IdentityProviderType can be set any of the supported identity types: SERVICE_MANAGED, AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE, AWS_LAMBDA, or API_GATEWAY.

  • If Protocol includes AS2, then the EndpointType must be VPC, and domain must be Amazon S3.

S3StorageOptions
Type: S3StorageOptions structure

Specifies whether or not performance for your Amazon S3 directories is optimized. This is disabled by default.

By default, home directory mappings have a TYPE of DIRECTORY. If you enable this option, you would then need to explicitly set the HomeDirectoryMapEntry Type to FILE if you want a mapping to have a file target.

SecurityPolicyName
Type: string

Specifies the name of the security policy for the server.

StructuredLogDestinations
Type: Array of strings

Specifies the log groups to which your server logs are sent.

To specify a log group, you must provide the ARN for an existing log group. In this case, the format of the log group is as follows:

arn:aws:logs:region-name:amazon-account-id:log-group:log-group-name:*

For example, arn:aws:logs:us-east-1:111122223333:log-group:mytestgroup:*

If you have previously specified a log group for a server, you can clear it, and in effect turn off structured logging, by providing an empty value for this parameter in an update-server call. For example:

update-server --server-id s-1234567890abcdef0 --structured-log-destinations

Tags
Type: Array of Tag structures

Key-value pairs that can be used to group and search for servers.

WorkflowDetails
Type: WorkflowDetails structure

Specifies the workflow ID for the workflow to assign and the execution role that's used for executing the workflow.

In addition to a workflow to execute when a file is uploaded completely, WorkflowDetails can also contain a workflow ID (and execution role) for a workflow to execute on partial upload. A partial upload occurs when the server session disconnects while the file is still being uploaded.

CreateUser

$result = $client->createUser([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createUserAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates a user and associates them with an existing file transfer protocol-enabled server. You can only create and associate users with servers that have the IdentityProviderType set to SERVICE_MANAGED. Using parameters for CreateUser, you can specify the user name, set the home directory, store the user's public key, and assign the user's Identity and Access Management (IAM) role. You can also optionally add a session policy, and assign metadata with tags that can be used to group and search for users.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createUser([
    'HomeDirectory' => '<string>',
    'HomeDirectoryMappings' => [
        [
            'Entry' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

        ],
        // ...
    ],
    'UserName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
]);

Parameter Details

Members
HomeDirectory
Type: string

The landing directory (folder) for a user when they log in to the server using the client.

A HomeDirectory example is /bucket_name/home/mydirectory.

The HomeDirectory parameter is only used if HomeDirectoryType is set to PATH.

HomeDirectoryMappings
Type: Array of HomeDirectoryMapEntry structures

Logical directory mappings that specify what Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS paths and keys should be visible to your user and how you want to make them visible. You must specify the Entry and Target pair, where Entry shows how the path is made visible and Target is the actual Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS path. If you only specify a target, it is displayed as is. You also must ensure that your Identity and Access Management (IAM) role provides access to paths in Target. This value can be set only when HomeDirectoryType is set to LOGICAL.

The following is an Entry and Target pair example.

[ { "Entry": "/directory1", "Target": "/bucket_name/home/mydirectory" } ]

In most cases, you can use this value instead of the session policy to lock your user down to the designated home directory ("chroot"). To do this, you can set Entry to / and set Target to the value the user should see for their home directory when they log in.

The following is an Entry and Target pair example for chroot.

[ { "Entry": "/", "Target": "/bucket_name/home/mydirectory" } ]

HomeDirectoryType
Type: string

The type of landing directory (folder) that you want your users' home directory to be when they log in to the server. If you set it to PATH, the user will see the absolute Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS path as is in their file transfer protocol clients. If you set it to LOGICAL, you need to provide mappings in the HomeDirectoryMappings for how you want to make Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS paths visible to your users.

If HomeDirectoryType is LOGICAL, you must provide mappings, using the HomeDirectoryMappings parameter. If, on the other hand, HomeDirectoryType is PATH, you provide an absolute path using the HomeDirectory parameter. You cannot have both HomeDirectory and HomeDirectoryMappings in your template.

Policy
Type: string

A session policy for your user so that you can use the same Identity and Access Management (IAM) role across multiple users. This policy scopes down a user's access to portions of their Amazon S3 bucket. Variables that you can use inside this policy include ${Transfer:UserName}, ${Transfer:HomeDirectory}, and ${Transfer:HomeBucket}.

This policy applies only when the domain of ServerId is Amazon S3. Amazon EFS does not use session policies.

For session policies, Transfer Family stores the policy as a JSON blob, instead of the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the policy. You save the policy as a JSON blob and pass it in the Policy argument.

For an example of a session policy, see Example session policy.

For more information, see AssumeRole in the Amazon Web Services Security Token Service API Reference.

PosixProfile
Type: PosixProfile structure

Specifies the full POSIX identity, including user ID (Uid), group ID (Gid), and any secondary groups IDs (SecondaryGids), that controls your users' access to your Amazon EFS file systems. The POSIX permissions that are set on files and directories in Amazon EFS determine the level of access your users get when transferring files into and out of your Amazon EFS file systems.

Role
Required: Yes
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that controls your users' access to your Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS file system. The policies attached to this role determine the level of access that you want to provide your users when transferring files into and out of your Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS file system. The IAM role should also contain a trust relationship that allows the server to access your resources when servicing your users' transfer requests.

ServerId
Required: Yes
Type: string

A system-assigned unique identifier for a server instance. This is the specific server that you added your user to.

SshPublicKeyBody
Type: string

The public portion of the Secure Shell (SSH) key used to authenticate the user to the server.

The three standard SSH public key format elements are <key type>, <body base64>, and an optional <comment>, with spaces between each element.

Transfer Family accepts RSA, ECDSA, and ED25519 keys.

  • For RSA keys, the key type is ssh-rsa.

  • For ED25519 keys, the key type is ssh-ed25519.

  • For ECDSA keys, the key type is either ecdsa-sha2-nistp256, ecdsa-sha2-nistp384, or ecdsa-sha2-nistp521, depending on the size of the key you generated.

Tags
Type: Array of Tag structures

Key-value pairs that can be used to group and search for users. Tags are metadata attached to users for any purpose.

UserName
Required: Yes
Type: string

A unique string that identifies a user and is associated with a ServerId. This user name must be a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 100 characters long. The following are valid characters: a-z, A-Z, 0-9, underscore '_', hyphen '-', period '.', and at sign '@'. The user name can't start with a hyphen, period, or at sign.

CreateWorkflow

$result = $client->createWorkflow([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createWorkflowAsync([/* ... */]);

Allows you to create a workflow with specified steps and step details the workflow invokes after file transfer completes.

Members
Description
Type: string

A textual description for the workflow.

OnExceptionSteps
Type: Array of WorkflowStep structures

Specifies the steps (actions) to take if errors are encountered during execution of the workflow.

For custom steps, the Lambda function needs to send FAILURE to the call back API to kick off the exception steps. Additionally, if the Lambda does not send SUCCESS before it times out, the exception steps are executed.

Steps
Required: Yes
Type: Array of WorkflowStep structures

Specifies the details for the steps that are in the specified workflow.

The TYPE specifies which of the following actions is being taken for this step.

  • COPY - Copy the file to another location.

  • CUSTOM - Perform a custom step with an Lambda function target.

  • DECRYPT - Decrypt a file that was encrypted before it was uploaded.

  • DELETE - Delete the file.

  • TAG - Add a tag to the file.

Currently, copying and tagging are supported only on S3.

For file location, you specify either the Amazon S3 bucket and key, or the Amazon EFS file system ID and path.

Tags
Type: Array of Tag structures

Key-value pairs that can be used to group and search for workflows. Tags are metadata attached to workflows for any purpose.

StartDirectoryListing

$result = $client->startDirectoryListing([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->startDirectoryListingAsync([/* ... */]);

Retrieves a list of the contents of a directory from a remote SFTP server. You specify the connector ID, the output path, and the remote directory path. You can also specify the optional MaxItems value to control the maximum number of items that are listed from the remote directory. This API returns a list of all files and directories in the remote directory (up to the maximum value), but does not return files or folders in sub-directories. That is, it only returns a list of files and directories one-level deep.

After you receive the listing file, you can provide the files that you want to transfer to the RetrieveFilePaths parameter of the StartFileTransfer API call.

The naming convention for the output file is connector-ID-listing-ID.json. The output file contains the following information:

  • filePath: the complete path of a remote file, relative to the directory of the listing request for your SFTP connector on the remote server.

  • modifiedTimestamp: the last time the file was modified, in UTC time format. This field is optional. If the remote file attributes don't contain a timestamp, it is omitted from the file listing.

  • size: the size of the file, in bytes. This field is optional. If the remote file attributes don't contain a file size, it is omitted from the file listing.

  • path: the complete path of a remote directory, relative to the directory of the listing request for your SFTP connector on the remote server.

  • truncated: a flag indicating whether the list output contains all of the items contained in the remote directory or not. If your Truncated output value is true, you can increase the value provided in the optional max-items input attribute to be able to list more items (up to the maximum allowed list size of 10,000 items).

By doing so, you can troubleshoot issues with the identity provider integration to ensure that your users can successfully use the service.

The ServerId and UserName parameters are required. The ServerProtocol, SourceIp, and UserPassword are all optional.

Note the following:

  • You cannot use TestIdentityProvider if the IdentityProviderType of your server is SERVICE_MANAGED.

  • TestIdentityProvider does not work with keys: it only accepts passwords.

  • TestIdentityProvider can test the password operation for a custom Identity Provider that handles keys and passwords.

  • If you provide any incorrect values for any parameters, the Response field is empty.

  • If you provide a server ID for a server that uses service-managed users, you get an error:

    An error occurred (InvalidRequestException) when calling the TestIdentityProvider operation: s-server-ID not configured for external auth

  • If you enter a Server ID for the --server-id parameter that does not identify an actual Transfer server, you receive the following error:

    An error occurred (ResourceNotFoundException) when calling the TestIdentityProvider operation: Unknown server.

    It is possible your sever is in a different region. You can specify a region by adding the following: --region region-code, such as --region us-east-2 to specify a server in US East (Ohio).

    ],
    'Role' => '<string>',
    'ServerId' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
]);

Parameter Details

Members
ExternalId
Required: Yes
Type: string

A unique identifier that is required to identify specific groups within your directory. The users of the group that you associate have access to your Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS resources over the enabled protocols using Transfer Family. If you know the group name, you can view the SID values by running the following command using Windows PowerShell.

Get-ADGroup -Filter {samAccountName -like "YourGroupName*"} -Properties * | Select SamAccountName,ObjectSid

In that command, replace YourGroupName with the name of your Active Directory group.

The regular expression used to validate this parameter is a string of characters consisting of uppercase and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces. You can also include underscores or any of the following characters: =,.@:/-

HomeDirectory
Type: string

The landing directory (folder) for a user when they log in to the server using the client.

A HomeDirectory example is /bucket_name/home/mydirectory.

The HomeDirectory parameter is only used if HomeDirectoryType is set to PATH.

HomeDirectoryMappings
Type: Array of HomeDirectoryMapEntry structures

Logical directory mappings that specify what Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS paths and keys should be visible to your user and how you want to make them visible. You must specify the Entry and Target pair, where Entry shows how the path is made visible and Target is the actual Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS path. If you only specify a target, it is displayed as is. You also must ensure that your Identity and Access Management (IAM) role provides access to paths in Target. This value can be set only when HomeDirectoryType is set to LOGICAL.

The following is an Entry and Target pair example.

[ { "Entry": "/directory1", "Target": "/bucket_name/home/mydirectory" } ]

In most cases, you can use this value instead of the session policy to lock down your user to the designated home directory ("chroot"). To do this, you can set Entry to / and set Target to the HomeDirectory parameter value.

The following is an Entry and Target pair example for chroot.

[ { "Entry": "/", "Target": "/bucket_name/home/mydirectory" } ]

HomeDirectoryType
Type: string

The type of landing directory (folder) that you want your users' home directory to be when they log in to the server. If you set it to PATH, the user will see the absolute Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS path as is in their file transfer protocol clients. If you set it to LOGICAL, you need to provide mappings in the HomeDirectoryMappings for how you want to make Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS paths visible to your users.

If HomeDirectoryType is LOGICAL, you must provide mappings, using the HomeDirectoryMappings parameter. If, on the other hand, HomeDirectoryType is PATH, you provide an absolute path using the HomeDirectory parameter. You cannot have both HomeDirectory and HomeDirectoryMappings in your template.

Policy
Type: string

A session policy for your user so that you can use the same Identity and Access Management (IAM) role across multiple users. This policy scopes down a user's access to portions of their Amazon S3 bucket. Variables that you can use inside this policy include ${Transfer:UserName}, ${Transfer:HomeDirectory}, and ${Transfer:HomeBucket}.

This policy applies only when the domain of ServerId is Amazon S3. Amazon EFS does not use session policies.

For session policies, Transfer Family stores the policy as a JSON blob, instead of the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the policy. You save the policy as a JSON blob and pass it in the Policy argument.

For an example of a session policy, see Example session policy.

For more information, see AssumeRole in the Amazon Web ServicesSecurity Token Service API Reference.

PosixProfile
Type: PosixProfile structure

The full POSIX identity, including user ID (Uid), group ID (Gid), and any secondary groups IDs (SecondaryGids), that controls your users' access to your Amazon EFS file systems. The POSIX permissions that are set on files and directories in your file system determine the level of access your users get when transferring files into and out of your Amazon EFS file systems.

Role
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that controls your users' access to your Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS file system. The policies attached to this role determine the level of access that you want to provide your users when transferring files into and out of your Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS file system. The IAM role should also contain a trust relationship that allows the server to access your resources when servicing your users' transfer requests.

ServerId
Required: Yes
Type: string

A system-assigned unique identifier for a server instance. This is the specific server that you added your user to.

Result Syntax

[
    'ExternalId' => '<string>',

]);

Parameter Details

Members
AccessRole
Type: string

Connectors are used to send files using either the AS2 or SFTP protocol. For the access role, provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management role to use.

For AS2 connectors

With AS2, you can send files by calling StartFileTransfer and specifying the file paths in the request parameter, SendFilePaths. We use the file’s parent directory (for example, for --send-file-paths /bucket/dir/file.txt, parent directory is /bucket/dir/) to temporarily store a processed AS2 message file, store the MDN when we receive them from the partner, and write a final JSON file containing relevant metadata of the transmission. So, the AccessRole needs to provide read and write access to the parent directory of the file location used in the StartFileTransfer request. Additionally, you need to provide read and write access to the parent directory of the files that you intend to send with StartFileTransfer.

If you are using Basic authentication for your AS2 connector, the access role requires the secretsmanager:GetSecretValue permission for the secret. If the secret is encrypted using a customer-managed key instead of the Amazon Web Services managed key in Secrets Manager, then the role also needs the kms:Decrypt permission for that key.

For SFTP connectors

Make sure that the access role provides read and write access to the parent directory of the file location that's used in the StartFileTransfer request. Additionally, make sure that the role provides secretsmanager:GetSecretValue permission to Secrets Manager.

Parameter Details

Members
AccessRole
Type: string

Connectors are used to send files using either the AS2 or SFTP protocol. For the access role, provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management role to use.

For AS2 connectors

With AS2, you can send files by calling StartFileTransfer and specifying the file paths in the request parameter, SendFilePaths. We use the file’s parent directory (for example, for --send-file-paths /bucket/dir/file.txt, parent directory is /bucket/dir/) to temporarily store a processed AS2 message file, store the MDN when we receive them from the partner, and write a final JSON file containing relevant metadata of the transmission. So, the AccessRole needs to provide read and write access to the parent directory of the file location used in the StartFileTransfer request. Additionally, you need to provide read and write access to the parent directory of the files that you intend to send with StartFileTransfer.

If you are using Basic authentication for your AS2 connector, the access role requires the secretsmanager:GetSecretValue permission for the secret. If the secret is encrypted using a customer-managed key instead of the Amazon Web Services managed key in Secrets Manager, then the role also needs the kms:Decrypt permission for that key.

For SFTP connectors

Make sure that the access role provides read and write access to the parent directory of the file location that's used in the StartFileTransfer request. Additionally, make sure that the role provides secretsmanager:GetSecretValue permission to Secrets Manager.

Parameter Details

Members
Certificate
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon Web ServicesCertificate Manager (ACM) certificate. Required when Protocols is set to FTPS.

To request a new public certificate, see Request a public certificate in the Amazon Web ServicesCertificate Manager User Guide.

To import an existing certificate into ACM, see Importing certificates into ACM in the Amazon Web ServicesCertificate Manager User Guide.

To request a private certificate to use FTPS through private IP addresses, see Request a private certificate in the Amazon Web ServicesCertificate Manager User Guide.

Certificates with the following cryptographic algorithms and key sizes are supported:

  • 2048-bit RSA (RSA_2048)

  • 4096-bit RSA (RSA_4096)

  • Elliptic Prime Curve 256 bit (EC_prime256v1)

  • Elliptic Prime Curve 384 bit (EC_secp384r1)

  • Elliptic Prime Curve 521 bit (EC_secp521r1)

The certificate must be a valid SSL/TLS X.509 version 3 certificate with FQDN or IP address specified and information about the issuer.

EndpointDetails
Type: EndpointDetails structure

The virtual private cloud (VPC) endpoint settings that are configured for your server. When you host your endpoint within your VPC, you can make your endpoint accessible only to resources within your VPC, or you can attach Elastic IP addresses and make your endpoint accessible to clients over the internet. Your VPC's default security groups are automatically assigned to your endpoint.

EndpointType
Type: string

The type of endpoint that you want your server to use. You can choose to make your server's endpoint publicly accessible (PUBLIC) or host it inside your VPC. With an endpoint that is hosted in a VPC, you can restrict access to your server and resources only within your VPC or choose to make it internet facing by attaching Elastic IP addresses directly to it.

After May 19, 2021, you won't be able to create a server using EndpointType=VPC_ENDPOINT in your Amazon Web Servicesaccount if your account hasn't already done so before May 19, 2021. If you have already created servers with EndpointType=VPC_ENDPOINT in your Amazon Web Servicesaccount on or before May 19, 2021, you will not be affected. After this date, use EndpointType=VPC.

For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/transfer/latest/userguide/create-server-in-vpc.html#deprecate-vpc-endpoint.

It is recommended that you use VPC as the EndpointType. With this endpoint type, you have the option to directly associate up to three Elastic IPv4 addresses (BYO IP included) with your server's endpoint and use VPC security groups to restrict traffic by the client's public IP address. This is not possible with EndpointType set to VPC_ENDPOINT.

HostKey
Type: string

The RSA, ECDSA, or ED25519 private key to use for your SFTP-enabled server. You can add multiple host keys, in case you want to rotate keys, or have a set of active keys that use different algorithms.

Use the following command to generate an RSA 2048 bit key with no passphrase:

ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 2048 -N "" -m PEM -f my-new-server-key.

Use a minimum value of 2048 for the -b option. You can create a stronger key by using 3072 or 4096.

Use the following command to generate an ECDSA 256 bit key with no passphrase:

ssh-keygen -t ecdsa -b 256 -N "" -m PEM -f my-new-server-key.

Valid values for the -b option for ECDSA are 256, 384, and 521.

Use the following command to generate an ED25519 key with no passphrase:

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -N "" -f my-new-server-key.

For all of these commands, you can replace my-new-server-key with a string of your choice.

If you aren't planning to migrate existing users from an existing SFTP-enabled server to a new server, don't update the host key. Accidentally changing a server's host key can be disruptive.

For more information, see Manage host keys for your SFTP-enabled server in the Transfer Family User Guide.

IdentityProviderDetails
Type: IdentityProviderDetails structure

An array containing all of the information required to call a customer's authentication API method.

LoggingRole
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that allows a server to turn on Amazon CloudWatch logging for Amazon S3 or Amazon EFSevents. When set, you can view user activity in your CloudWatch logs.

PostAuthenticationLoginBanner
Type: string

Specifies a string to display when users connect to a server. This string is displayed after the user authenticates.

The SFTP protocol does not support post-authentication display banners.

PreAuthenticationLoginBanner
Type: string

Specifies a string to display when users connect to a server. This string is displayed before the user authenticates. For example, the following banner displays details about using the system:

This system is for the use of authorized users only. Individuals using this computer system without authority, or in excess of their authority, are subject to having all of their activities on this system monitored and recorded by system personnel.

ProtocolDetails
Type: ProtocolDetails structure

The protocol settings that are configured for your server.

  • To indicate passive mode (for FTP and FTPS protocols), use the PassiveIp parameter. Enter a single dotted-quad IPv4 address, such as the external IP address of a firewall, router, or load balancer.

  • To ignore the error that is generated when the client attempts to use the SETSTAT command on a file that you are uploading to an Amazon S3 bucket, use the SetStatOption parameter. To have the Transfer Family server ignore the SETSTAT command and upload files without needing to make any changes to your SFTP client, set the value to ENABLE_NO_OP. If you set the SetStatOption parameter to ENABLE_NO_OP, Transfer Family generates a log entry to Amazon CloudWatch Logs, so that you can determine when the client is making a SETSTAT call.

  • To determine whether your Transfer Family server resumes recent, negotiated sessions through a unique session ID, use the TlsSessionResumptionMode parameter.

  • As2Transports indicates the transport method for the AS2 messages. Currently, only HTTP is supported.

Protocols
Type: Array of strings

Specifies the file transfer protocol or protocols over which your file transfer protocol client can connect to your server's endpoint. The available protocols are:

  • SFTP (Secure Shell (SSH) File Transfer Protocol): File transfer over SSH

  • FTPS (File Transfer Protocol Secure): File transfer with TLS encryption

  • FTP (File Transfer Protocol): Unencrypted file transfer

  • AS2 (Applicability Statement 2): used for transporting structured business-to-business data

  • If you select FTPS, you must choose a certificate stored in Certificate Manager (ACM) which is used to identify your server when clients connect to it over FTPS.

  • If Protocol includes either FTP or FTPS, then the EndpointType must be VPC and the IdentityProviderType must be either AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE, AWS_LAMBDA, or API_GATEWAY.

  • If Protocol includes FTP, then AddressAllocationIds cannot be associated.

  • If Protocol is set only to SFTP, the EndpointType can be set to PUBLIC and the IdentityProviderType can be set any of the supported identity types: SERVICE_MANAGED, AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE, AWS_LAMBDA, or API_GATEWAY.

  • If Protocol includes AS2, then the EndpointType must be VPC, and domain must be Amazon S3.

S3StorageOptions
Type: S3StorageOptions structure

Specifies whether or not performance for your Amazon S3 directories is optimized. This is disabled by default.

By default, home directory mappings have a TYPE of DIRECTORY. If you enable this option, you would then need to explicitly set the HomeDirectoryMapEntry Type to FILE if you want a mapping to have a file target.

SecurityPolicyName
Type: string

Specifies the name of the security policy for the server.

ServerId
Required: Yes
Type: string

A system-assigned unique identifier for a server instance that the Transfer Family user is assigned to.

StructuredLogDestinations
Type: Array of strings

Specifies the log groups to which your server logs are sent.

To specify a log group, you must provide the ARN for an existing log group. In this case, the format of the log group is as follows:

arn:aws:logs:region-name:amazon-account-id:log-group:log-group-name:*

For example, arn:aws:logs:us-east-1:111122223333:log-group:mytestgroup:*

If you have previously specified a log group for a server, you can clear it, and in effect turn off structured logging, by providing an empty value for this parameter in an update-server call. For example:

update-server --server-id s-1234567890abcdef0 --structured-log-destinations

WorkflowDetails
Type: WorkflowDetails structure

Specifies the workflow ID for the workflow to assign and the execution role that's used for executing the workflow.

In addition to a workflow to execute when a file is uploaded completely, WorkflowDetails can also contain a workflow ID (and execution role) for a workflow to execute on partial upload. A partial upload occurs when the server session disconnects while the file is still being uploaded.

To remove an associated workflow from a server, you can provide an empty OnUpload object, as in the following example.

aws transfer update-server --server-id s-01234567890abcdef --workflow-details '{"OnUpload":[]}'

UpdateUser

$result = $client->updateUser([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->updateUserAsync([/* ... */]);

Assigns new properties to a user. Parameters you pass modify any or all of the following: the home directory, role, and policy for the UserName and ServerId you specify.

The response returns the ServerId and the UserName for the updated user.

In the console, you can select Restricted when you create or update a user. This ensures that the user can't access anything outside of their home directory. The programmatic way to configure this behavior is to update the user. Set their HomeDirectoryType to LOGICAL, and specify HomeDirectoryMappings with Entry as root (/) and Target as their home directory.

For example, if the user's home directory is /test/admin-user, the following command updates the user so that their configuration in the console shows the Restricted flag as selected.

aws transfer update-user --server-id <server-id> --user-name admin-user --home-directory-type LOGICAL --home-directory-mappings "[{\"Entry\":\"/\", \"Target\":\"/test/admin-user\"}]"

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->updateUser([
    'HomeDirectory' => '<string>',
    'HomeDirectoryMappings' => [
        [
            'Entry' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

    'UserName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
]);

Parameter Details

Members
HomeDirectory
Type: string

The landing directory (folder) for a user when they log in to the server using the client.

A HomeDirectory example is /bucket_name/home/mydirectory.

The HomeDirectory parameter is only used if HomeDirectoryType is set to PATH.

HomeDirectoryMappings
Type: Array of HomeDirectoryMapEntry structures

Logical directory mappings that specify what Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS paths and keys should be visible to your user and how you want to make them visible. You must specify the Entry and Target pair, where Entry shows how the path is made visible and Target is the actual Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS path. If you only specify a target, it is displayed as is. You also must ensure that your Identity and Access Management (IAM) role provides access to paths in Target. This value can be set only when HomeDirectoryType is set to LOGICAL.

The following is an Entry and Target pair example.

[ { "Entry": "/directory1", "Target": "/bucket_name/home/mydirectory" } ]

In most cases, you can use this value instead of the session policy to lock down your user to the designated home directory ("chroot"). To do this, you can set Entry to '/' and set Target to the HomeDirectory parameter value.

The following is an Entry and Target pair example for chroot.

[ { "Entry": "/", "Target": "/bucket_name/home/mydirectory" } ]

HomeDirectoryType
Type: string

The type of landing directory (folder) that you want your users' home directory to be when they log in to the server. If you set it to PATH, the user will see the absolute Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS path as is in their file transfer protocol clients. If you set it to LOGICAL, you need to provide mappings in the HomeDirectoryMappings for how you want to make Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS paths visible to your users.

If HomeDirectoryType is LOGICAL, you must provide mappings, using the HomeDirectoryMappings parameter. If, on the other hand, HomeDirectoryType is PATH, you provide an absolute path using the HomeDirectory parameter. You cannot have both HomeDirectory and HomeDirectoryMappings in your template.

Policy
Type: string

A session policy for your user so that you can use the same Identity and Access Management (IAM) role across multiple users. This policy scopes down a user's access to portions of their Amazon S3 bucket. Variables that you can use inside this policy include ${Transfer:UserName}, ${Transfer:HomeDirectory}, and ${Transfer:HomeBucket}.

This policy applies only when the domain of ServerId is Amazon S3. Amazon EFS does not use session policies.

For session policies, Transfer Family stores the policy as a JSON blob, instead of the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the policy. You save the policy as a JSON blob and pass it in the Policy argument.

For an example of a session policy, see Creating a session policy.

For more information, see AssumeRole in the Amazon Web Services Security Token Service API Reference.

PosixProfile
Type: PosixProfile structure

Specifies the full POSIX identity, including user ID (Uid), group ID (Gid), and any secondary groups IDs (SecondaryGids), that controls your users' access to your Amazon Elastic File Systems (Amazon EFS). The POSIX permissions that are set on files and directories in your file system determines the level of access your users get when transferring files into and out of your Amazon EFS file systems.

Role
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that controls your users' access to your Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS file system. The policies attached to this role determine the level of access that you want to provide your users when transferring files into and out of your Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS file system. The IAM role should also contain a trust relationship that allows the server to access your resources when servicing your users' transfer requests.

ServerId
Required: Yes
Type: string

A system-assigned unique identifier for a Transfer Family server instance that the user is assigned to.

UserName
Required: Yes
Type: string

A unique string that identifies a user and is associated with a server as specified by the ServerId. This user name must be a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 100 characters long. The following are valid characters: a-z, A-Z, 0-9, underscore '_', hyphen '-', period '.', and at sign '@'. The user name can't start with a hyphen, period, or at sign.

The default value for this parameter is null, which indicates that Basic authentication is not enabled for the connector.

If the connector should use Basic authentication, the secret needs to be in the following format:

{ "Username": "user-name", "Password": "user-password" }

Replace user-name and user-password with the credentials for the actual user that is being authenticated.

Note the following:

  • You are storing these credentials in Secrets Manager, not passing them directly into this API.

  • If you are using the API, SDKs, or CloudFormation to configure your connector, then you must create the secret before you can enable Basic authentication. However, if you are using the Amazon Web Services management console, you can have the system create the secret for you.

If you have previously enabled Basic authentication for a connector, you can disable it by using the UpdateConnector API call. For example, if you are using the CLI, you can run the following command to remove Basic authentication:

update-connector --connector-id my-connector-id --as2-config 'BasicAuthSecretId=""'

Compression
Type: string

Specifies whether the AS2 file is compressed.

EncryptionAlgorithm
Type: string

The algorithm that is used to encrypt the file.

Note the following:

  • Do not use the DES_EDE3_CBC algorithm unless you must support a legacy client that requires it, as it is a weak encryption algorithm.

  • You can only specify NONE if the URL for your connector uses HTTPS. Using HTTPS ensures that no traffic is sent in clear text.

LocalProfileId
Type: string

A unique identifier for the AS2 local profile.

MdnResponse
Type: string

Used for outbound requests (from an Transfer Family server to a partner AS2 server) to determine whether the partner response for transfers is synchronous or asynchronous. Specify either of the following values:

  • SYNC: The system expects a synchronous MDN response, confirming that the file was transferred successfully (or not).

  • NONE: Specifies that no MDN response is required.

MdnSigningAlgorithm
Type: string

The signing algorithm for the MDN response.

If set to DEFAULT (or not set at all), the value for SigningAlgorithm is used.

MessageSubject
Type: string

Used as the Subject HTTP header attribute in AS2 messages that are being sent with the connector.

PartnerProfileId
Type: string

A unique identifier for the partner profile for the connector.

SigningAlgorithm
Type: string

The algorithm that is used to sign the AS2 messages sent with the connector.

Members
ExternalId
Type: string

A unique identifier that is required to identify specific groups within your directory. The users of the group that you associate have access to your Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS resources over the enabled protocols using Transfer Family. If you know the group name, you can view the SID values by running the following command using Windows PowerShell.

Get-ADGroup -Filter {samAccountName -like "YourGroupName*"} -Properties * | Select SamAccountName,ObjectSid

In that command, replace YourGroupName with the name of your Active Directory group.

The regular expression used to validate this parameter is a string of characters consisting of uppercase and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces. You can also include underscores or any of the following characters: =,.@:/-

HomeDirectory
Type: string

The landing directory (folder) for a user when they log in to the server using the client.

A HomeDirectory example is /bucket_name/home/mydirectory.

The HomeDirectory parameter is only used if HomeDirectoryType is set to PATH.

HomeDirectoryMappings
Type: Array of HomeDirectoryMapEntry structures

Logical directory mappings that specify what Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS paths and keys should be visible to your user and how you want to make them visible. You must specify the Entry and Target pair, where Entry shows how the path is made visible and Target is the actual Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS path. If you only specify a target, it is displayed as is. You also must ensure that your Identity and Access Management (IAM) role provides access to paths in Target. This value can be set only when HomeDirectoryType is set to LOGICAL.

In most cases, you can use this value instead of the session policy to lock down the associated access to the designated home directory ("chroot"). To do this, you can set Entry to '/' and set Target to the HomeDirectory parameter value.

HomeDirectoryType
Type: string

The type of landing directory (folder) that you want your users' home directory to be when they log in to the server. If you set it to PATH, the user will see the absolute Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS path as is in their file transfer protocol clients. If you set it to LOGICAL, you need to provide mappings in the HomeDirectoryMappings for how you want to make Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS paths visible to your users.

If HomeDirectoryType is LOGICAL, you must provide mappings, using the HomeDirectoryMappings parameter. If, on the other hand, HomeDirectoryType is PATH, you provide an absolute path using the HomeDirectory parameter. You cannot have both HomeDirectory and HomeDirectoryMappings in your template.

Policy
Type: string

A session policy for your user so that you can use the same Identity and Access Management (IAM) role across multiple users. This policy scopes down a user's access to portions of their Amazon S3 bucket. Variables that you can use inside this policy include ${Transfer:UserName}, ${Transfer:HomeDirectory}, and ${Transfer:HomeBucket}.

PosixProfile
Type: PosixProfile structure

The full POSIX identity, including user ID (Uid), group ID (Gid), and any secondary groups IDs (SecondaryGids), that controls your users' access to your Amazon EFS file systems. The POSIX permissions that are set on files and directories in your file system determine the level of access your users get when transferring files into and out of your Amazon EFS file systems.

Role
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that controls your users' access to your Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS file system. The policies attached to this role determine the level of access that you want to provide your users when transferring files into and out of your Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon EFS file system. The IAM role should also contain a trust relationship that allows the server to access your resources when servicing your users' transfer requests.

DescribedAgreement

Description

Members
AccessRole
Type: string

Connectors are used to send files using either the AS2 or SFTP protocol. For the access role, provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management role to use.

For AS2 connectors

With AS2, you can send files by calling StartFileTransfer and specifying the file paths in the request parameter, SendFilePaths. We use the file’s parent directory (for example, for --send-file-paths /bucket/dir/file.txt, parent directory is /bucket/dir/) to temporarily store a processed AS2 message file, store the MDN when we receive them from the partner, and write a final JSON file containing relevant metadata of the transmission. So, the AccessRole needs to provide read and write access to the parent directory of the file location used in the StartFileTransfer request. Additionally, you need to provide read and write access to the parent directory of the files that you intend to send with StartFileTransfer.

If you are using Basic authentication for your AS2 connector, the access role requires the secretsmanager:GetSecretValue permission for the secret. If the secret is encrypted using a customer-managed key instead of the Amazon Web Services managed key in Secrets Manager, then the role also needs the kms:Decrypt permission for that key.

For SFTP connectors

Make sure that the access role provides read and write access to the parent directory of the file location that's used in the StartFileTransfer request. Additionally, make sure that the role provides secretsmanager:GetSecretValue permission to Secrets Manager.

Members
AccessRole
Type: string

Connectors are used to send files using either the AS2 or SFTP protocol. For the access role, provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management role to use.

For AS2 connectors

With AS2, you can send files by calling StartFileTransfer and specifying the file paths in the request parameter, SendFilePaths. We use the file’s parent directory (for example, for --send-file-paths /bucket/dir/file.txt, parent directory is /bucket/dir/) to temporarily store a processed AS2 message file, store the MDN when we receive them from the partner, and write a final JSON file containing relevant metadata of the transmission. So, the AccessRole needs to provide read and write access to the parent directory of the file location used in the StartFileTransfer request. Additionally, you need to provide read and write access to the parent directory of the files that you intend to send with StartFileTransfer.

If you are using Basic authentication for your AS2 connector, the access role requires the secretsmanager:GetSecretValue permission for the secret. If the secret is encrypted using a customer-managed key instead of the Amazon Web Services managed key in Secrets Manager, then the role also needs the kms:Decrypt permission for that key.

For SFTP connectors

Make sure that the access role provides read and write access to the parent directory of the file location that's used in the StartFileTransfer request. Additionally, make sure that the role provides secretsmanager:GetSecretValue permission to Secrets Manager.

  • To indicate passive mode (for FTP and FTPS protocols), use the PassiveIp parameter. Enter a single dotted-quad IPv4 address, such as the external IP address of a firewall, router, or load balancer.

  • To ignore the error that is generated when the client attempts to use the SETSTAT command on a file that you are uploading to an Amazon S3 bucket, use the SetStatOption parameter. To have the Transfer Family server ignore the SETSTAT command and upload files without needing to make any changes to your SFTP client, set the value to ENABLE_NO_OP. If you set the SetStatOption parameter to ENABLE_NO_OP, Transfer Family generates a log entry to Amazon CloudWatch Logs, so that you can determine when the client is making a SETSTAT call.

  • To determine whether your Transfer Family server resumes recent, negotiated sessions through a unique session ID, use the TlsSessionResumptionMode parameter.

  • As2Transports indicates the transport method for the AS2 messages. Currently, only HTTP is supported.

Protocols
Type: Array of strings

Specifies the file transfer protocol or protocols over which your file transfer protocol client can connect to your server's endpoint. The available protocols are:

  • FTPS (File Transfer Protocol Secure): File transfer with TLS encryption

  • FTP (File Transfer Protocol): Unencrypted file transfer

  • AS2 (Applicability Statement 2): used for transporting structured business-to-business data

  • If you select FTPS, you must choose a certificate stored in Certificate Manager (ACM) which is used to identify your server when clients connect to it over FTPS.

  • If Protocol includes either FTP or FTPS, then the EndpointType must be VPC and the IdentityProviderType must be either AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE, AWS_LAMBDA, or API_GATEWAY.

  • If Protocol includes FTP, then AddressAllocationIds cannot be associated.

  • If Protocol is set only to SFTP, the EndpointType can be set to PUBLIC and the IdentityProviderType can be set any of the supported identity types: SERVICE_MANAGED, AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE, AWS_LAMBDA, or API_GATEWAY.

  • If Protocol includes AS2, then the EndpointType must be VPC, and domain must be Amazon S3.

S3StorageOptions
Type: S3StorageOptions structure

Specifies whether or not performance for your Amazon S3 directories is optimized. This is disabled by default.

By default, home directory mappings have a TYPE of DIRECTORY. If you enable this option, you would then need to explicitly set the HomeDirectoryMapEntry Type to FILE if you want a mapping to have a file target.

For example, arn:aws:logs:us-east-1:111122223333:log-group:mytestgroup:*

If you have previously specified a log group for a server, you can clear it, and in effect turn off structured logging, by providing an empty value for this parameter in an update-server call. For example:

update-server --server-id s-1234567890abcdef0 --structured-log-destinations

Tags
Type: Array of Tag structures

Specifies the key-value pairs that you can use to search for and group servers that were assigned to the server that was described.

ProtocolDetails

Description

The protocol settings that are configured for your server.

Members
As2Transports
Type: Array of strings

Indicates the transport method for the AS2 messages. Currently, only HTTP is supported.

PassiveIp
Type: string

Indicates passive mode, for FTP and FTPS protocols. Enter a single IPv4 address, such as the public IP address of a firewall, router, or load balancer. For example:

aws transfer update-server --protocol-details PassiveIp=0.0.0.0

Replace 0.0.0.0 in the example above with the actual IP address you want to use.

If you change the PassiveIp value, you must stop and then restart your Transfer Family server for the change to take effect. For details on using passive mode (PASV) in a NAT environment, see Configuring your FTPS server behind a firewall or NAT with Transfer Family.

Special values

The AUTO and 0.0.0.0 are special values for the PassiveIp parameter. The value PassiveIp=AUTO is assigned by default to FTP and FTPS type servers. In this case, the server automatically responds with one of the endpoint IPs within the PASV response. PassiveIp=0.0.0.0 has a more unique application for its usage. For example, if you have a High Availability (HA) Network Load Balancer (NLB) environment, where you have 3 subnets, you can only specify a single IP address using the PassiveIp parameter. This reduces the effectiveness of having High Availability. In this case, you can specify PassiveIp=0.0.0.0. This tells the client to use the same IP address as the Control connection and utilize all AZs for their connections. Note, however, that not all FTP clients support the PassiveIp=0.0.0.0 response. FileZilla and WinSCP do support it. If you are using other clients, check to see if your client supports the PassiveIp=0.0.0.0 response.

SetStatOption
Type: string

Use the SetStatOption to ignore the error that is generated when the client attempts to use SETSTAT on a file you are uploading to an S3 bucket.

Some SFTP file transfer clients can attempt to change the attributes of remote files, including timestamp and permissions, using commands, such as SETSTAT when uploading the file. However, these commands are not compatible with object storage systems, such as Amazon S3. Due to this incompatibility, file uploads from these clients can result in errors even when the file is otherwise successfully uploaded.

Set the value to ENABLE_NO_OP to have the Transfer Family server ignore the SETSTAT command, and upload files without needing to make any changes to your SFTP client. While the SetStatOption ENABLE_NO_OP setting ignores the error, it does generate a log entry in Amazon CloudWatch Logs, so you can determine when the client is making a SETSTAT call.

If you want to preserve the original timestamp for your file, and modify other file attributes using SETSTAT, you can use Amazon EFS as backend storage with Transfer Family.

TlsSessionResumptionMode
Type: string

A property used with Transfer Family servers that use the FTPS protocol. TLS Session Resumption provides a mechanism to resume or share a negotiated secret key between the control and data connection for an FTPS session. TlsSessionResumptionMode determines whether or not the server resumes recent, negotiated sessions through a unique session ID. This property is available during CreateServer and UpdateServer calls. If a TlsSessionResumptionMode value is not specified during CreateServer, it is set to ENFORCED by default.

  • DISABLED: the server does not process TLS session resumption client requests and creates a new TLS session for each request.

  • ENABLED: the server processes and accepts clients that are performing TLS session resumption. The server doesn't reject client data connections that do not perform the TLS session resumption client processing.

  • ENFORCED: the server processes and accepts clients that are performing TLS session resumption. The server rejects client data connections that do not perform the TLS session resumption client processing. Before you set the value to ENFORCED, test your clients.

    Not all FTPS clients perform TLS session resumption. So, if you choose to enforce TLS session resumption, you prevent any connections from FTPS clients that don't perform the protocol negotiation. To determine whether or not you can use the ENFORCED value, you need to test your clients.

S3InputFileLocation

Description

Specifies the customer input Amazon S3 file location. If it is used inside copyStepDetails.DestinationFileLocation, it should be the S3 copy destination.

You need to provide the bucket and key. The key can represent either a path or a file. This is determined by whether or not you end the key value with the forward slash (/) character. If the final character is "/", then your file is copied to the folder, and its name does not change. If, rather, the final character is alphanumeric, your uploaded file is renamed to the path value. In this case, if a file with that name already exists, it is overwritten.

For example, if your path is shared-files/bob/, your uploaded files are copied to the shared-files/bob/, folder. If your path is shared-files/today, each uploaded file is copied to the shared-files folder and named today: each upload overwrites the previous version of the bob file.

SftpConnectorConfig

Description

Contains the details for an SFTP connector object. The connector object is used for transferring files to and from a partner's SFTP server.

Because the SftpConnectorConfig data type is used for both creating and updating SFTP connectors, its parameters, TrustedHostKeys and UserSecretId are marked as not required. This is a bit misleading, as they are not required when you are updating an existing SFTP connector, but are required when you are creating a new SFTP connector.

Members
TrustedHostKeys
Type: Array of strings

The public portion of the host key, or keys, that are used to identify the external server to which you are connecting. You can use the ssh-keyscan command against the SFTP server to retrieve the necessary key.

The three standard SSH public key format elements are <key type>, <body base64>, and an optional <comment>, with spaces between each element. Specify only the <key type> and <body base64>: do not enter the <comment> portion of the key.

For the trusted host key, Transfer Family accepts RSA and ECDSA keys.

  • For RSA keys, the <key type> string is ssh-rsa.

  • For ECDSA keys, the <key type> string is either ecdsa-sha2-nistp256, ecdsa-sha2-nistp384, or ecdsa-sha2-nistp521, depending on the size of the key you generated.

Run this command to retrieve the SFTP server host key, where your SFTP server name is ftp.host.com.

ssh-keyscan ftp.host.com

This prints the public host key to standard output.

ftp.host.com ssh-rsa AAAAB3Nza...<long-string-for-public-key

Copy and paste this string into the TrustedHostKeys field for the create-connector command or into the Trusted host keys field in the console.

UserSecretId
Type: string

The identifier for the secret (in Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager) that contains the SFTP user's private key, password, or both. The identifier must be the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the secret.

SshPublicKey

Description

Provides information about the public Secure Shell (SSH) key that is associated with a Transfer Family user for the specific file transfer protocol-enabled server (as identified by ServerId). The information returned includes the date the key was imported, the public key contents, and the public key ID. A user can store more than one SSH public key associated with their user name on a specific server.

Members
DateImported

Specifies the content of the SSH public key as specified by the PublicKeyId.

Transfer Family accepts RSA, ECDSA, and ED25519 keys.

SshPublicKeyId
Required: Yes
Type: string

Specifies the SshPublicKeyId parameter contains the identifier of the public key.

Tag

Description

Creates a key-value pair for a specific resource. Tags are metadata that you can use to search for and group a resource for various purposes. You can apply tags to servers, users, and roles. A tag key can take more than one value. For example, to group servers for accounting purposes, you might create a tag called Group and assign the values Research and Accounting to that group.

Members
Key
Required: Yes
Type: string

The name assigned to the tag that you create.

Value
Required: Yes

SourceFileLocation
Type: string

Specifies which file to use as input to the workflow step: either the output from the previous step, or the originally uploaded file for the workflow.

  • To use the previous file as the input, enter ${previous.file}. In this case, this workflow step uses the output file from the previous workflow step as input. This is the default value.

  • To use the originally uploaded file location as input for this step, enter ${original.file}.

Tags
Type: Array of S3Tag structures

Array that contains from 1 to 10 key/value pairs.

Members
OnPartialUpload
Type: Array of WorkflowDetail structures

A trigger that starts a workflow if a file is only partially uploaded. You can attach a workflow to a server that executes whenever there is a partial upload.

A partial upload occurs when a file is open when the session disconnects.

OnUpload
Type: Array of WorkflowDetail structures

A trigger that starts a workflow: the workflow begins to execute after a file is uploaded.

To remove an associated workflow from a server, you can provide an empty OnUpload object, as in the following example.

aws transfer update-server --server-id s-01234567890abcdef --workflow-details '{"OnUpload":[]}'
