AWS CLI version 2, the latest major version of AWS CLI, is now stable and recommended for general use. To view this page for the AWS CLI version 2, click here. For more information see the AWS CLI version 2 installation instructions and migration guide.
Creates a transfer location for an Amazon S3 bucket. DataSync can use this location as a source or destination for transferring data.
Before you begin, make sure that you read the following topics:

--subdirectory
(string)
Specifies a prefix in the S3 bucket that DataSync reads from or writes to (depending on whether the bucket is a source or destination location).
Note
DataSync can't transfer objects with a prefix that begins with a slash (
/
) or includes//
,/./
, or/../
patterns. For example:
/photos
photos//2006/January
photos/./2006/February
photos/../2006/March
--s3-bucket-arn
(string)
Specifies the ARN of the S3 bucket that you want to use as a location. (When creating your DataSync task later, you specify whether this location is a transfer source or destination.)
If your S3 bucket is located on an Outposts resource, you must specify an Amazon S3 access point. For more information, see Managing data access with Amazon S3 access points in the Amazon S3 User Guide .
--s3-storage-class
(string)
Specifies the storage class that you want your objects to use when Amazon S3 is a transfer destination.
For buckets in Amazon Web Services Regions, the storage class defaults to
STANDARD
. For buckets on Outposts, the storage class defaults toOUTPOSTS
.For more information, see Storage class considerations with Amazon S3 transfers .
Possible values:
STANDARD
STANDARD_IA
ONEZONE_IA
INTELLIGENT_TIERING
GLACIER
DEEP_ARCHIVE
OUTPOSTS
GLACIER_INSTANT_RETRIEVAL
--s3-config
(structure)
Specifies the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that DataSync uses to access your S3 bucket.
For more information, see Providing DataSync access to S3 buckets .
BucketAccessRoleArn -> (string)
Specifies the ARN of the IAM role that DataSync uses to access your S3 bucket.
Shorthand Syntax:
BucketAccessRoleArn=string
JSON Syntax:
{
"BucketAccessRoleArn": "string"
}
--agent-arns
(list)
(Amazon S3 on Outposts only) Specifies the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the DataSync agent on your Outpost.
For more information, see Deploy your DataSync agent on Outposts .
(string)
Syntax:
"string" "string" ...
--tags
(list)
Specifies labels that help you categorize, filter, and search for your Amazon Web Services resources. We recommend creating at least a name tag for your transfer location.
(structure)
A key-value pair representing a single tag that's been applied to an Amazon Web Services resource.
Key -> (string)
The key for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.Value -> (string)
The value for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.
Shorthand Syntax:
Key=string,Value=string ...
JSON Syntax:
[
{
"Key": "string",
"Value": "string"

--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.
--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.
--query

--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.
