Options

--cloud-front-origin-access-identity-config (structure)

The identity's configuration information.

CallerReference -> (string)

A unique value (for example, a date-time stamp) that ensures that the request can't be replayed.

If the value of CallerReference is new (regardless of the content of the CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityConfig object), a new origin access identity is created.

If the CallerReference is a value already sent in a previous identity request, and the content of the CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityConfig is identical to the original request (ignoring white space), the response includes the same information returned to the original request.

If the CallerReference is a value you already sent in a previous request to create an identity, but the content of the CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityConfig is different from the original request, CloudFront returns a CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityAlreadyExists error.

Comment -> (string)

A comment to describe the origin access identity. The comment cannot be longer than 128 characters.

Shorthand Syntax:

CallerReference=string,Comment=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "CallerReference": "string",
  "Comment": "string"
}

--id (string)

The identity's id.

--if-match (string)

The value of the ETag header that you received when retrieving the identity's configuration. For example: E2QWRUHAPOMQZL .

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command's default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on
  • off
  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal's quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To update a CloudFront origin access identity

The following example updates the origin access identity (OAI) with the ID E74FTE3AEXAMPLE. The only field that you can update is the OAI's Comment.

To update an OAI, you must have the OAI's ID and ETag. The OAI ID is returned in the output of the create-cloud-front-origin-access-identity and list-cloud-front-origin-access-identities commands. To get the ETag, use the get-cloud-front-origin-access-identity or get-cloud-front-origin-access-identity-config command. Use the --if-match option to provide the OAI's ETag.

aws cloudfront update-cloud-front-origin-access-identity \
    --id E74FTE3AEXAMPLE \
    --if-match E2QWRUHEXAMPLE \
    --cloud-front-origin-access-identity-config \
        CallerReference=cli-example,Comment="Example OAI Updated"

You can accomplish the same thing by providing the OAI configuration in a JSON file, as shown in the following example:

aws cloudfront update-cloud-front-origin-access-identity \
    --id E74FTE3AEXAMPLE \
    --if-match E2QWRUHEXAMPLE \
    --cloud-front-origin-access-identity-config file://OAI-config.json

The file OAI-config.json is a JSON document in the current directory that contains the following:

{
    "CallerReference": "cli-example",
    "Comment": "Example OAI Updated"
}

Whether you provide the OAI configuration with a command line argument or a JSON file, the output is the same:

{
    "ETag": "E9LHASXEXAMPLE",
    "CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentity": {
        "Id": "E74FTE3AEXAMPLE",
        "S3CanonicalUserId": "cd13868f797c227fbea2830611a26fe0a21ba1b826ab4bed9b7771c9aEXAMPLE",
        "CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityConfig": {
            "CallerReference": "cli-example",
            "Comment": "Example OAI Updated"
        }
    }
}

Output

CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentity -> (structure)

The origin access identity's information.

Id -> (string)

The ID for the origin access identity, for example, E74FTE3AJFJ256A .

S3CanonicalUserId -> (string)

The Amazon S3 canonical user ID for the origin access identity, used when giving the origin access identity read permission to an object in Amazon S3.

CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityConfig -> (structure)

The current configuration information for the identity.

CallerReference -> (string)

A unique value (for example, a date-time stamp) that ensures that the request can't be replayed.

If the value of CallerReference is new (regardless of the content of the CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityConfig object), a new origin access identity is created.

If the CallerReference is a value already sent in a previous identity request, and the content of the CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityConfig is identical to the original request (ignoring white space), the response includes the same information returned to the original request.

If the CallerReference is a value you already sent in a previous request to create an identity, but the content of the CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityConfig is different from the original request, CloudFront returns a CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityAlreadyExists error.

Comment -> (string)

A comment to describe the origin access identity. The comment cannot be longer than 128 characters.

ETag -> (string)

The current version of the configuration. For example: E2QWRUHAPOMQZL .
