Create a private connection between a VPC and Recycle Bin

You can establish a private connection between your VPC and Recycle Bin by creating an interface VPC endpoint, powered by AWS PrivateLink. You can access Recycle Bin as if it were in your VPC, without using an internet gateway, NAT device, VPN connection, or AWS Direct Connect connection. Instances in your VPC don't need public IP addresses to communicate with Recycle Bin.

We create an endpoint network interface in each subnet that you enable for the interface endpoint.

For more information, see Access AWS services through AWS PrivateLink in the AWS PrivateLink Guide.

Create an interface VPC endpoint for Recycle Bin

You can create a VPC endpoint for Recycle Bin using either the Amazon VPC console or the AWS CLI. For more information, see Create a VPC endpoint in the AWS PrivateLink Guide.

Create a VPC endpoint for Recycle Bin using the following service name: com.amazonaws.region.rbin

If you enable private DNS for the endpoint, you can make API requests to Recycle Bin using its default DNS name for the Region, for example, rbin.us-east-1.amazonaws.com.

Create a VPC endpoint policy for Recycle Bin

By default, full access to Recycle Bin is allowed through the endpoint. You can control access to the interface endpoint using VPC endpoint policies. You can attach an endpoint policy to your VPC endpoint that controls access to Recycle Bin. The policy specifies the following information:

• The principal that can perform actions.

• The actions that can be performed.

• The resources on which actions can be performed.

For more information, see Controlling access to services with VPC endpoints in the Amazon VPC User Guide.
