Overview

Constructs a service interface object. Each API operation is exposed as a function on service.

Service Description

Transfer Family is a fully managed service that enables the transfer of files over the File Transfer Protocol (FTP), File Transfer Protocol over SSL (FTPS), or Secure Shell (SSH) File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) directly into and out of Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) or Amazon EFS. Additionally, you can use Applicability Statement 2 (AS2) to transfer files into and out of Amazon S3. Amazon Web Services helps you seamlessly migrate your file transfer workflows to Transfer Family by integrating with existing authentication systems, and providing DNS routing with Amazon Route 53 so nothing changes for your customers and partners, or their applications. With your data in Amazon S3, you can use it with Amazon Web Services for processing, analytics, machine learning, and archiving. Getting started with Transfer Family is easy since there is no infrastructure to buy and set up.

Sending a Request Using Transfer

var transfer = new AWS.Transfer();
transfer.createAccess(params, function (err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Locking the API Version

In order to ensure that the Transfer object uses this specific API, you can construct the object by passing the apiVersion option to the constructor:

var transfer = new AWS.Transfer({apiVersion: '2018-11-05'});

You can also set the API version globally in AWS.config.apiVersions using the transfer service identifier:

AWS.config.apiVersions = {
  transfer: '2018-11-05',
  // other service API versions
};

var transfer = new AWS.Transfer();

Version:

  • 2018-11-05

Method Details

createAccess(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

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.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the createAccess operation

var params = {
  ExternalId: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  Role: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  ServerId: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  HomeDirectory: 'STRING_VALUE',
  HomeDirectoryMappings: [
    {
      Entry: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
      Target: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
      Type: FILE | DIRECTORY
    },
    /* more items */
  ],
  HomeDirectoryType: PATH | LOGICAL,
  Policy: 'STRING_VALUE',
  PosixProfile: {
    Gid: 'NUMBER_VALUE', /* required */
    Uid: 'NUMBER_VALUE', /* required */
    SecondaryGids: [
      'NUMBER_VALUE',
      /* more items */
    ]
  }
};
transfer.createAccess(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • HomeDirectory — (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.

      Note: The HomeDirectory parameter is only used if HomeDirectoryType is set to PATH.
    • HomeDirectoryType — (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.

      Note: 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.
      Possible values include:
      • "PATH"
      • "LOGICAL"
    • HomeDirectoryMappings — (Array<map>)

      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" } ]

      • Entryrequired — (String)

        Represents an entry for HomeDirectoryMappings.

      • Targetrequired — (String)

        Represents the map target that is used in a HomeDirectoryMapEntry.

      • Type — (String)

        Specifies the type of mapping. Set the type to FILE if you want the mapping to point to a file, or DIRECTORY for the directory to point to a directory.

        Note: By default, home directory mappings have a Type of DIRECTORY when you create a Transfer Family server. You would need to explicitly set Type to FILE if you want a mapping to have a file target.
        Possible values include:
        • "FILE"
        • "DIRECTORY"
    • Policy — (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}.

      Note: 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 — (map)

      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.

      • Uidrequired — (Integer)

        The POSIX user ID used for all EFS operations by this user.

      • Gidrequired — (Integer)

        The POSIX group ID used for all EFS operations by this user.

      • SecondaryGids — (Array<Integer>)

        The secondary POSIX group IDs used for all EFS operations by this user.

    • Role — (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 — (String)

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

    • ExternalId — (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: =,.@:/-

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • ServerId — (String)

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

      • ExternalId — (String)

        The external identifier of the group whose users have access to your Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS resources over the enabled protocols using Transfer Family.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

createAgreement(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

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.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the createAgreement operation

var params = {
  AccessRole: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  BaseDirectory: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  LocalProfileId: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  PartnerProfileId: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  ServerId: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  Description: 'STRING_VALUE',
  Status: ACTIVE | INACTIVE,
  Tags: [
    {
      Key: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
      Value: 'STRING_VALUE' /* required */
    },
    /* more items */
  ]
};
transfer.createAgreement(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • Description — (String)

      A name or short description to identify the agreement.

    • ServerId — (String)

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

    • LocalProfileId — (String)

      A unique identifier for the AS2 local profile.

    • PartnerProfileId — (String)

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

    • BaseDirectory — (String)

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

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

    • AccessRole — (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.

    • Status — (String)

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

      Possible values include:
      • "ACTIVE"
      • "INACTIVE"
    • Tags — (Array<map>)

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

      • Keyrequired — (String)

        The name assigned to the tag that you create.

      • Valuerequired — (String)

        Contains one or more values that you assigned to the key name you create.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • AgreementId — (String)

        The unique identifier for the agreement. Use this ID for deleting, or updating an agreement, as well as in any other API calls that require that you specify the agreement ID.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

createConnector(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Creates the connector, which captures the parameters for a connection for the AS2 or SFTP protocol. For AS2, the connector is required for sending files to an externally hosted AS2 server. For SFTP, the connector is required when sending files to an SFTP server or receiving files from an SFTP server. For more details about connectors, see Configure AS2 connectors and Create SFTP connectors.

Note: You must specify exactly one configuration object: either for AS2 (As2Config) or SFTP (SftpConfig).

Service Reference:

Examples:

transfer.createConnector(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • Url — (String)

      The URL of the partner's AS2 or SFTP endpoint.

    • As2Config — (map)

      A structure that contains the parameters for an AS2 connector object.

      • LocalProfileId — (String)

        A unique identifier for the AS2 local profile.

      • PartnerProfileId — (String)

        A unique identifier for the partner profile for the connector.

      • MessageSubject — (String)

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

      • Compression — (String)

        Specifies whether the AS2 file is compressed.

        Possible values include:

      • EncryptionAlgorithm — (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.

        Possible values include:
        • "AES128_CBC"
        • "AES192_CBC"
        • "AES256_CBC"
        • "DES_EDE3_CBC"
        • "NONE"
      • SigningAlgorithm — (String)

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

        Possible values include:
        • "SHA256"

      • MdnSigningAlgorithm — (String)

        The signing algorithm for the MDN response.

        Note: If set to DEFAULT (or not set at all), the value for SigningAlgorithm is used.
        Possible values include:
        • "SHA256"
        • "SHA384"
        • "SHA512"
        • "SHA1"
        • "NONE"
        • "DEFAULT"
      • MdnResponse — (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.

        Possible values include:
        • "SYNC"
        • "NONE"
      • BasicAuthSecretId — (String)

        Provides Basic authentication support to the AS2 Connectors API. To use Basic authentication, you must provide the name or Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a secret in Secrets Manager.

        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=""'

    • AccessRole — (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.

    • LoggingRole — (String)

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

    • Tags — (Array<map>)

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

      • Keyrequired — (String)

        The name assigned to the tag that you create.

      • Valuerequired — (String)

        Contains one or more values that you assigned to the key name you create.

    • SftpConfig — (map)

      A structure that contains the parameters for an SFTP connector object.

      • UserSecretId — (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.

      • TrustedHostKeys — (Array<String>)

        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.

    • SecurityPolicyName — (String)

      Specifies the name of the security policy for the connector.

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • Certificate — (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)

      Note: 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 — (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.

      Note: After the server is created, the domain cannot be changed.
      Possible values include:
      • "S3"
      • "EFS"
    • EndpointDetails — (map)

      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.

      • AddressAllocationIds — (Array<String>)

        A list of address allocation IDs that are required to attach an Elastic IP address to your server's endpoint.

        An address allocation ID corresponds to the allocation ID of an Elastic IP address. This value can be retrieved from the allocationId field from the Amazon EC2 Address data type. One way to retrieve this value is by calling the EC2 DescribeAddresses API.

        This parameter is optional. Set this parameter if you want to make your VPC endpoint public-facing. For details, see Create an internet-facing endpoint for your server.

        Note: This property can only be set as follows:
        • EndpointType must be set to VPC
        • The Transfer Family server must be offline.
        • You cannot set this parameter for Transfer Family servers that use the FTP protocol.
        • The server must already have SubnetIds populated (SubnetIds and AddressAllocationIds cannot be updated simultaneously).
        • AddressAllocationIds can't contain duplicates, and must be equal in length to SubnetIds. For example, if you have three subnet IDs, you must also specify three address allocation IDs.
        • Call the UpdateServer API to set or change this parameter.
      • SubnetIds — (Array<String>)

        A list of subnet IDs that are required to host your server endpoint in your VPC.

        Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC.
      • VpcEndpointId — (String)

        The identifier of the VPC endpoint.

        Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC_ENDPOINT. For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/transfer/latest/userguide/create-server-in-vpc.html#deprecate-vpc-endpoint.
      • VpcId — (String)

        The VPC identifier of the VPC in which a server's endpoint will be hosted.

        Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC.
      • SecurityGroupIds — (Array<String>)

        A list of security groups IDs that are available to attach to your server's endpoint.

        Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC. You can edit the SecurityGroupIds property in the UpdateServer API only if you are changing the EndpointType from PUBLIC or VPC_ENDPOINT to VPC. To change security groups associated with your server's VPC endpoint after creation, use the Amazon EC2 ModifyVpcEndpoint API.
    • EndpointType — (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.

      Note: 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.
      Possible values include:
      • "PUBLIC"
      • "VPC"
      • "VPC_ENDPOINT"
    • HostKey — (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 — (map)

      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.

      • Url — (String)

        Provides the location of the service endpoint used to authenticate users.

      • InvocationRole — (String)

        This parameter is only applicable if your IdentityProviderType is API_GATEWAY. Provides the type of InvocationRole used to authenticate the user account.

      • DirectoryId — (String)

        The identifier of the Directory Service directory that you want to use as your identity provider.

      • Function — (String)

        The ARN for a Lambda function to use for the Identity provider.

      • SftpAuthenticationMethods — (String)

        For SFTP-enabled servers, and for custom identity providers only, you can specify whether to authenticate using a password, SSH key pair, or both.

        • PASSWORD - users must provide their password to connect.

        • PUBLIC_KEY - users must provide their private key to connect.

        • PUBLIC_KEY_OR_PASSWORD - users can authenticate with either their password or their key. This is the default value.

        • PUBLIC_KEY_AND_PASSWORD - users must provide both their private key and their password to connect. The server checks the key first, and then if the key is valid, the system prompts for a password. If the private key provided does not match the public key that is stored, authentication fails.

        Possible values include:
        • "PASSWORD"
        • "PUBLIC_KEY"
        • "PUBLIC_KEY_OR_PASSWORD"
        • "PUBLIC_KEY_AND_PASSWORD"
    • IdentityProviderType — (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.

      Possible values include:
      • "SERVICE_MANAGED"
      • "API_GATEWAY"
      • "AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE"
      • "AWS_LAMBDA"
    • LoggingRole — (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 — (String)

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

      Note: The SFTP protocol does not support post-authentication display banners.
    • PreAuthenticationLoginBanner — (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.

    • Protocols — (Array<String>)

      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

      Note:
      • 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.
    • ProtocolDetails — (map)

      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.

      • PassiveIp — (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.

        Note: 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.

      • TlsSessionResumptionMode — (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.

          Note: 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.
        Possible values include:
        • "DISABLED"
        • "ENABLED"
        • "ENFORCED"
      • SetStatOption — (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.

        Note: 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.
        Possible values include:
        • "DEFAULT"
        • "ENABLE_NO_OP"
      • As2Transports — (Array<String>)

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

    • SecurityPolicyName — (String)

      Specifies the name of the security policy for the server.

    • Tags — (Array<map>)

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

      • Keyrequired — (String)

        The name assigned to the tag that you create.

      • Valuerequired — (String)

        Contains one or more values that you assigned to the key name you create.

    • WorkflowDetails — (map)

      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.

      • OnUpload — (Array<map>)

        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":[]}'

        • WorkflowIdrequired — (String)

          A unique identifier for the workflow.

        • ExecutionRolerequired — (String)

          Includes the necessary permissions for S3, EFS, and Lambda operations that Transfer can assume, so that all workflow steps can operate on the required resources

      • OnPartialUpload — (Array<map>)

        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.

        • WorkflowIdrequired — (String)

          A unique identifier for the workflow.

        • ExecutionRolerequired — (String)

          Includes the necessary permissions for S3, EFS, and Lambda operations that Transfer can assume, so that all workflow steps can operate on the required resources

    • StructuredLogDestinations — (Array<String>)

      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

    • S3StorageOptions — (map)

      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.

      • DirectoryListingOptimization — (String)

        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.

        Possible values include:
        • "ENABLED"
        • "DISABLED"

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • ServerId — (String)

        The service-assigned identifier of the server that is created.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

createUser(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

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.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the createUser operation

var params = {
  Role: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  ServerId: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  UserName: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  HomeDirectory: 'STRING_VALUE',
  HomeDirectoryMappings: [
    {
      Entry: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
      Target: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
      Type: FILE | DIRECTORY
    },
    /* more items */
  ],
  HomeDirectoryType: PATH | LOGICAL,
  Policy: 'STRING_VALUE',
  PosixProfile: {
    Gid: 'NUMBER_VALUE', /* required */
    Uid: 'NUMBER_VALUE', /* required */
    SecondaryGids: [
      'NUMBER_VALUE',
      /* more items */
    ]
  },
  SshPublicKeyBody: 'STRING_VALUE',
  Tags: [
    {
      Key: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
      Value: 'STRING_VALUE' /* required */
    },
    /* more items */
  ]
};
transfer.createUser(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • HomeDirectory — (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.

      Note: The HomeDirectory parameter is only used if HomeDirectoryType is set to PATH.
    • HomeDirectoryType — (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.

      Note: 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.
      Possible values include:
      • "PATH"
      • "LOGICAL"
    • HomeDirectoryMappings — (Array<map>)

      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" } ]

      • Entryrequired — (String)

        Represents an entry for HomeDirectoryMappings.

      • Targetrequired — (String)

        Represents the map target that is used in a HomeDirectoryMapEntry.

      • Type — (String)

        Specifies the type of mapping. Set the type to FILE if you want the mapping to point to a file, or DIRECTORY for the directory to point to a directory.

        Note: By default, home directory mappings have a Type of DIRECTORY when you create a Transfer Family server. You would need to explicitly set Type to FILE if you want a mapping to have a file target.
        Possible values include:
        • "FILE"
        • "DIRECTORY"
    • Policy — (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}.

      Note: 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 — (map)

      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.

      • Uidrequired — (Integer)

        The POSIX user ID used for all EFS operations by this user.

      • Gidrequired — (Integer)

        The POSIX group ID used for all EFS operations by this user.

      • SecondaryGids — (Array<Integer>)

        The secondary POSIX group IDs used for all EFS operations by this user.

    • Role — (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 — (String)

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

    • SshPublicKeyBody — (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 — (Array<map>)

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

      • Keyrequired — (String)

        The name assigned to the tag that you create.

      • Valuerequired — (String)

        Contains one or more values that you assigned to the key name you create.

    • UserName — (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.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • ServerId — (String)

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

      • UserName — (String)

        A unique string that identifies a Transfer Family user.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

createWorkflow(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Allows you to create a workflow with specified steps and step details the workflow invokes after file transfer completes. After creating a workflow, you can associate the workflow created with any transfer servers by specifying the workflow-details field in CreateServer and UpdateServer operations.

          A flag that indicates whether to overwrite an existing file of the same name. The default is FALSE.

          If the workflow is processing a file that has the same name as an existing file, the behavior is as follows:

          • If OverwriteExisting is TRUE, the existing file is replaced with the file being processed.

          • If OverwriteExisting is FALSE, nothing happens, and the workflow processing stops.

          Possible values include:
          • "TRUE"
          • "FALSE"
        • SourceFileLocation — (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.

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: =,.@:/-

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • ServerId — (String)

        A system-assigned unique identifier for a server that has this access assigned.

      • Access — (map)

        The external identifier of the server that the access is attached to.

        • HomeDirectory — (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.

          Note: The HomeDirectory parameter is only used if HomeDirectoryType is set to PATH.
        • HomeDirectoryMappings — (Array<map>)

          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.

          • Entryrequired — (String)

            Represents an entry for HomeDirectoryMappings.

          • Targetrequired — (String)

            Represents the map target that is used in a HomeDirectoryMapEntry.

          • Type — (String)

            Specifies the type of mapping. Set the type to FILE if you want the mapping to point to a file, or DIRECTORY for the directory to point to a directory.

            Note: By default, home directory mappings have a Type of DIRECTORY when you create a Transfer Family server. You would need to explicitly set Type to FILE if you want a mapping to have a file target.
            Possible values include:
            • "FILE"
            • "DIRECTORY"
        • HomeDirectoryType — (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.

          Note: 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.
          Possible values include:
          • "PATH"
          • "LOGICAL"
        • Policy — (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 — (map)

          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.

          • Uidrequired — (Integer)

            The POSIX user ID used for all EFS operations by this user.

          • Gidrequired — (Integer)

            The POSIX group ID used for all EFS operations by this user.

          • SecondaryGids — (Array<Integer>)

            The secondary POSIX group IDs used for all EFS operations by this user.

        • Role — (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.

        • ExternalId — (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 name or short description that's used to identify the agreement.

        • Status — (String)

          The current status of the agreement, either ACTIVE or INACTIVE.

          Possible values include:

        • BaseDirectory — (String)

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

        • AccessRole — (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.

            Provides Basic authentication support to the AS2 Connectors API. To use Basic authentication, you must provide the name or Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a secret in Secrets Manager.

            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=""'

        • AccessRole — (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.

        • LoggingRole — (String)

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

        • Tags — (Array<map>)

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

          • Keyrequired — (String)

            The name assigned to the tag that you create.

          • Valuerequired — (String)

            Contains one or more values that you assigned to the key name you create.

        • SftpConfig — (map)

          A structure that contains the parameters for an SFTP connector object.

          • UserSecretId — (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.

          • TrustedHostKeys — (Array<String>)

            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.

        • ServiceManagedEgressIpAddresses — (Array<String>)

          The list of egress IP addresses of this connector. These IP addresses are assigned automatically when you create the connector.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

describeServer(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Describes a file transfer protocol-enabled server that you specify by passing the ServerId parameter.

The response contains a description of a server's properties. When you set EndpointType to VPC, the response will contain the EndpointDetails.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the describeServer operation

var params = {
  ServerId: 'STRING_VALUE' /* required */
};
transfer.describeServer(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • ServerId — (String)

      A system-assigned unique identifier for a server.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • Server — (map)

        An array containing the properties of a server with the ServerID you specified.

        • Arnrequired — (String)

          Specifies the unique Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the server.

        • Certificate — (String)

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

        • ProtocolDetails — (map)

          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.

          • PassiveIp — (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.

            Note: 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.

          • TlsSessionResumptionMode — (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.

              Note: 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.
            Possible values include:
            • "DISABLED"
            • "ENABLED"
            • "ENFORCED"
          • SetStatOption — (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.

            Note: 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.
            Possible values include:
            • "DEFAULT"
            • "ENABLE_NO_OP"
          • As2Transports — (Array<String>)

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

        • Domain — (String)

          Specifies 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.

          Possible values include:
          • "S3"
          • "EFS"
        • EndpointDetails — (map)

          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.

          • AddressAllocationIds — (Array<String>)

            A list of address allocation IDs that are required to attach an Elastic IP address to your server's endpoint.

            An address allocation ID corresponds to the allocation ID of an Elastic IP address. This value can be retrieved from the allocationId field from the Amazon EC2 Address data type. One way to retrieve this value is by calling the EC2 DescribeAddresses API.

            This parameter is optional. Set this parameter if you want to make your VPC endpoint public-facing. For details, see Create an internet-facing endpoint for your server.

            Note: This property can only be set as follows:
            • EndpointType must be set to VPC
            • The Transfer Family server must be offline.
            • You cannot set this parameter for Transfer Family servers that use the FTP protocol.
            • The server must already have SubnetIds populated (SubnetIds and AddressAllocationIds cannot be updated simultaneously).
            • AddressAllocationIds can't contain duplicates, and must be equal in length to SubnetIds. For example, if you have three subnet IDs, you must also specify three address allocation IDs.
            • Call the UpdateServer API to set or change this parameter.
          • SubnetIds — (Array<String>)

            A list of subnet IDs that are required to host your server endpoint in your VPC.

            Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC.
          • VpcEndpointId — (String)

            The identifier of the VPC endpoint.

            Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC_ENDPOINT. For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/transfer/latest/userguide/create-server-in-vpc.html#deprecate-vpc-endpoint.
          • VpcId — (String)

            The VPC identifier of the VPC in which a server's endpoint will be hosted.

            Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC.
          • SecurityGroupIds — (Array<String>)

            A list of security groups IDs that are available to attach to your server's endpoint.

            Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC. You can edit the SecurityGroupIds property in the UpdateServer API only if you are changing the EndpointType from PUBLIC or VPC_ENDPOINT to VPC. To change security groups associated with your server's VPC endpoint after creation, use the Amazon EC2 ModifyVpcEndpoint API.
        • EndpointType — (String)

          Defines the type of endpoint that your server is connected to. If your server is connected to a VPC endpoint, your server isn't accessible over the public internet.

          Possible values include:
          • "PUBLIC"
          • "VPC"
          • "VPC_ENDPOINT"
        • HostKeyFingerprint — (String)

          Specifies the Base64-encoded SHA256 fingerprint of the server's host key. This value is equivalent to the output of the ssh-keygen -l -f my-new-server-key command.

        • IdentityProviderDetails — (map)

          Specifies information to call a customer-supplied authentication API. This field is not populated when the IdentityProviderType of a server is AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE or SERVICE_MANAGED.

          • Url — (String)

            Provides the location of the service endpoint used to authenticate users.

          • InvocationRole — (String)

            This parameter is only applicable if your IdentityProviderType is API_GATEWAY. Provides the type of InvocationRole used to authenticate the user account.

          • DirectoryId — (String)

            The identifier of the Directory Service directory that you want to use as your identity provider.

          • Function — (String)

            The ARN for a Lambda function to use for the Identity provider.

          • SftpAuthenticationMethods — (String)

            For SFTP-enabled servers, and for custom identity providers only, you can specify whether to authenticate using a password, SSH key pair, or both.

            • PASSWORD - users must provide their password to connect.

            • PUBLIC_KEY - users must provide their private key to connect.

            • PUBLIC_KEY_OR_PASSWORD - users can authenticate with either their password or their key. This is the default value.

            • PUBLIC_KEY_AND_PASSWORD - users must provide both their private key and their password to connect. The server checks the key first, and then if the key is valid, the system prompts for a password. If the private key provided does not match the public key that is stored, authentication fails.

            Possible values include:
            • "PASSWORD"
            • "PUBLIC_KEY"
            • "PUBLIC_KEY_OR_PASSWORD"
            • "PUBLIC_KEY_AND_PASSWORD"
        • IdentityProviderType — (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.

          Possible values include:
          • "SERVICE_MANAGED"
          • "API_GATEWAY"
          • "AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE"
          • "AWS_LAMBDA"
        • LoggingRole — (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 — (String)

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

          Note: The SFTP protocol does not support post-authentication display banners.
        • PreAuthenticationLoginBanner — (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.

        • Protocols — (Array<String>)

          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

          Note:
          • 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.
        • SecurityPolicyName — (String)

          Specifies the name of the security policy for the server.

        • ServerId — (String)

          Specifies the unique system-assigned identifier for a server that you instantiate.

        • State — (String)

          The condition of the server that was described. A value of ONLINE indicates that the server can accept jobs and transfer files. A State value of OFFLINE means that the server cannot perform file transfer operations.

          The states of STARTING and STOPPING indicate that the server is in an intermediate state, either not fully able to respond, or not fully offline. The values of START_FAILED or STOP_FAILED can indicate an error condition.

          Possible values include:
          • "OFFLINE"
          • "ONLINE"
          • "STARTING"
          • "STOPPING"
          • "START_FAILED"
          • "STOP_FAILED"
        • Tags — (Array<map>)

            The name assigned to the tag that you create.

          • Valuerequired — (String)

            Contains one or more values that you assigned to the key name you create.

        • UserCount — (Integer)

          Specifies the number of users that are assigned to a server you specified with the ServerId.

        • WorkflowDetails — (map)

          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.

          • OnUpload — (Array<map>)

            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":[]}'

            • WorkflowIdrequired — (String)

              A unique identifier for the workflow.

            • ExecutionRolerequired — (String)

              Includes the necessary permissions for S3, EFS, and Lambda operations that Transfer can assume, so that all workflow steps can operate on the required resources

          • OnPartialUpload — (Array<map>)

            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.

            • WorkflowIdrequired — (String)

              A unique identifier for the workflow.

            • ExecutionRolerequired — (String)

              Includes the necessary permissions for S3, EFS, and Lambda operations that Transfer can assume, so that all workflow steps can operate on the required resources

        • StructuredLogDestinations — (Array<String>)

          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

        • S3StorageOptions — (map)

          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.

          • DirectoryListingOptimization — (String)

            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.

            Possible values include:
            • "ENABLED"
            • "DISABLED"
        • As2ServiceManagedEgressIpAddresses — (Array<String>)

          The list of egress IP addresses of this server. These IP addresses are only relevant for servers that use the AS2 protocol. They are used for sending asynchronous MDNs.

          These IP addresses are assigned automatically when you create an AS2 server. Additionally, if you update an existing server and add the AS2 protocol, static IP addresses are assigned as well.

        • HomeDirectoryMappings — (Array<map>)

          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 your user down to the designated home directory ("chroot"). To do this, you can set Entry to '/' and set Target to the HomeDirectory parameter value.

          • Entryrequired — (String)

            Represents an entry for HomeDirectoryMappings.

          • Targetrequired — (String)

            Represents the map target that is used in a HomeDirectoryMapEntry.

          • Type — (String)

            Specifies the type of mapping. Set the type to FILE if you want the mapping to point to a file, or DIRECTORY for the directory to point to a directory.

            Note: By default, home directory mappings have a Type of DIRECTORY when you create a Transfer Family server. You would need to explicitly set Type to FILE if you want a mapping to have a file target.
            Possible values include:
            • "FILE"
            • "DIRECTORY"
        • HomeDirectoryType — (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.

          Note: 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.
          Possible values include:
          • "PATH"
          • "LOGICAL"
        • Policy — (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}.

        • Role — (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.

        • SshPublicKeys — (Array<map>)

            • SourceFileLocation — (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}.

          • DecryptStepDetails — (map)

            Details for a step that decrypts an encrypted file.

            • An Amazon S3 or Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) location for the source file to decrypt.

            • An S3 or Amazon EFS location for the destination of the file decryption.

            • A flag that indicates whether to overwrite an existing file of the same name. The default is FALSE.

            • The type of encryption that's used. Currently, only PGP encryption is supported.

            • Name — (String)

              The name of the step, used as an identifier.

            • Typerequired — (String)

listExecutions(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Lists all in-progress executions for the specified workflow.

Note: If the specified workflow ID cannot be found, ListExecutions returns a ResourceNotFound exception.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the listExecutions operation

var params = {
  WorkflowId: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  MaxResults: 'NUMBER_VALUE',
  NextToken: 'STRING_VALUE'
};
transfer.listExecutions(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • MaxResults — (Integer)

      Specifies the maximum number of executions to return.

    • NextToken — (String)

      ListExecutions returns the NextToken parameter in the output. You can then pass the NextToken parameter in a subsequent command to continue listing additional executions.

      This is useful for pagination, for instance. If you have 100 executions for a workflow, you might only want to list first 10. If so, call the API by specifying the max-results:

      aws transfer list-executions --max-results 10

      This returns details for the first 10 executions, as well as the pointer (NextToken) to the eleventh execution. You can now call the API again, supplying the NextToken value you received:

      aws transfer list-executions --max-results 10 --next-token $somePointerReturnedFromPreviousListResult

      This call returns the next 10 executions, the 11th through the 20th. You can then repeat the call until the details for all 100 executions have been returned.

    • WorkflowId — (String)

      A unique identifier for the workflow.

startDirectoryListing(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

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).

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the startDirectoryListing operation

var params = {
  ConnectorId: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */

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.

      Note: 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.
      Possible values include:
      • "PATH"
      • "LOGICAL"
    • HomeDirectoryMappings — (Array<map>)

      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" } ]

      • Entryrequired — (String)

        Represents an entry for HomeDirectoryMappings.

      • Targetrequired — (String)

        Represents the map target that is used in a HomeDirectoryMapEntry.

      • Type — (String)

        Specifies the type of mapping. Set the type to FILE if you want the mapping to point to a file, or DIRECTORY for the directory to point to a directory.

        Note: By default, home directory mappings have a Type of DIRECTORY when you create a Transfer Family server. You would need to explicitly set Type to FILE if you want a mapping to have a file target.
        Possible values include:
        • "FILE"
        • "DIRECTORY"
    • Policy — (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}.

      Note: 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 — (map)

      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.

      • Uidrequired — (Integer)

        The POSIX user ID used for all EFS operations by this user.

      • Gidrequired — (Integer)

        The POSIX group ID used for all EFS operations by this user.

      • SecondaryGids — (Array<Integer>)

        The secondary POSIX group IDs used for all EFS operations by this user.

    • Role — (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 — (String)

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

    • ExternalId — (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: =,.@:/-

updateAgreement(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Updates some of the parameters for an existing agreement. Provide the AgreementId and the ServerId for the agreement that you want to update, along with the new values for the parameters to update.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the updateAgreement operation

var params = {
  AgreementId: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  ServerId: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  AccessRole: 'STRING_VALUE',
  BaseDirectory: 'STRING_VALUE',
  Description: 'STRING_VALUE',
  LocalProfileId: 'STRING_VALUE',
  PartnerProfileId: 'STRING_VALUE',
  Status: ACTIVE | INACTIVE
};
transfer.updateAgreement(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • AgreementId — (String)

      A unique identifier for the agreement. This identifier is returned when you create an agreement.

    • ServerId — (String)

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

    • Description — (String)

      To replace the existing description, provide a short description for the agreement.

    • Status — (String)

      You can update the status for the agreement, either activating an inactive agreement or the reverse.

      Possible values include:
      • "ACTIVE"
      • "INACTIVE"
    • LocalProfileId — (String)

      A unique identifier for the AS2 local profile.

      To change the local profile identifier, provide a new value here.

    • PartnerProfileId — (String)

      A unique identifier for the partner profile. To change the partner profile identifier, provide a new value here.

    • BaseDirectory — (String)

      To change the landing directory (folder) for files that are transferred, provide the bucket folder that you want to use; for example, /DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/home/mydirectory .

    • AccessRole — (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.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • ConnectorId — (String)

      The unique identifier for the connector.

    • Url — (String)

      The URL of the partner's AS2 or SFTP endpoint.

    • As2Config — (map)

        A unique identifier for the partner profile for the connector.

      • MessageSubject — (String)

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

      • Compression — (String)

        Specifies whether the AS2 file is compressed.

        Possible values include:
        • "ZLIB"
        • "DISABLED"
      • EncryptionAlgorithm — (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.

        Possible values include:
        • "AES128_CBC"
        • "AES192_CBC"
        • "AES256_CBC"
        • "DES_EDE3_CBC"
        • "NONE"
      • SigningAlgorithm — (String)

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

        Possible values include:
        • "SHA256"
        • "SHA384"
        • "SHA512"
        • "SHA1"
        • "NONE"
      • MdnSigningAlgorithm — (String)

        The signing algorithm for the MDN response.

        Note: If set to DEFAULT (or not set at all), the value for SigningAlgorithm is used.
        Possible values include:
        • "SHA256"
        • "SHA384"
        • "SHA512"
        • "SHA1"
        • "NONE"
        • "DEFAULT"
      • MdnResponse — (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.

        Possible values include:
        • "SYNC"
        • "NONE"
      • BasicAuthSecretId — (String)

        Provides Basic authentication support to the AS2 Connectors API. To use Basic authentication, you must provide the name or Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a secret in Secrets Manager.

        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=""'

    • AccessRole — (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.

    • LoggingRole — (String)

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

    • SftpConfig — (map)

      A structure that contains the parameters for an SFTP connector object.

      • UserSecretId — (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.

      • TrustedHostKeys — (Array<String>)

        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.

    • SecurityPolicyName — (String)

      Specifies the name of the security policy for the connector.

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • Certificate — (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)

      Note: The certificate must be a valid SSL/TLS X.509 version 3 certificate with FQDN or IP address specified and information about the issuer.
    • ProtocolDetails — (map)

      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.

      • PassiveIp — (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.

        Note: 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.

      • TlsSessionResumptionMode — (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.

          Note: 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.
        Possible values include:
        • "DISABLED"
        • "ENABLED"
        • "ENFORCED"
      • SetStatOption — (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.

        Note: 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.
        Possible values include:
        • "DEFAULT"
        • "ENABLE_NO_OP"
      • As2Transports — (Array<String>)

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

    • EndpointDetails — (map)

      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.

      • AddressAllocationIds — (Array<String>)

        A list of address allocation IDs that are required to attach an Elastic IP address to your server's endpoint.

        An address allocation ID corresponds to the allocation ID of an Elastic IP address. This value can be retrieved from the allocationId field from the Amazon EC2 Address data type. One way to retrieve this value is by calling the EC2 DescribeAddresses API.

        This parameter is optional. Set this parameter if you want to make your VPC endpoint public-facing. For details, see Create an internet-facing endpoint for your server.

        Note: This property can only be set as follows:
        • EndpointType must be set to VPC
        • The Transfer Family server must be offline.
        • You cannot set this parameter for Transfer Family servers that use the FTP protocol.
        • The server must already have SubnetIds populated (SubnetIds and AddressAllocationIds cannot be updated simultaneously).
        • AddressAllocationIds can't contain duplicates, and must be equal in length to SubnetIds. For example, if you have three subnet IDs, you must also specify three address allocation IDs.
        • Call the UpdateServer API to set or change this parameter.
      • SubnetIds — (Array<String>)

        A list of subnet IDs that are required to host your server endpoint in your VPC.

        Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC.
      • VpcEndpointId — (String)

        The identifier of the VPC endpoint.

        Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC_ENDPOINT. For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/transfer/latest/userguide/create-server-in-vpc.html#deprecate-vpc-endpoint.
      • VpcId — (String)

        The VPC identifier of the VPC in which a server's endpoint will be hosted.

        Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC.
      • SecurityGroupIds — (Array<String>)

        A list of security groups IDs that are available to attach to your server's endpoint.

        Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC. You can edit the SecurityGroupIds property in the UpdateServer API only if you are changing the EndpointType from PUBLIC or VPC_ENDPOINT to VPC. To change security groups associated with your server's VPC endpoint after creation, use the Amazon EC2 ModifyVpcEndpoint API.
    • EndpointType — (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.

      Note: 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.
      Possible values include:
      • "PUBLIC"
      • "VPC"
      • "VPC_ENDPOINT"
    • HostKey — (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 — (map)

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

      • Url — (String)

        Provides the location of the service endpoint used to authenticate users.

      • InvocationRole — (String)

        This parameter is only applicable if your IdentityProviderType is API_GATEWAY. Provides the type of InvocationRole used to authenticate the user account.

      • DirectoryId — (String)

        The identifier of the Directory Service directory that you want to use as your identity provider.

      • Function — (String)

        The ARN for a Lambda function to use for the Identity provider.

      • SftpAuthenticationMethods — (String)

        For SFTP-enabled servers, and for custom identity providers only, you can specify whether to authenticate using a password, SSH key pair, or both.

        • PASSWORD - users must provide their password to connect.

        • PUBLIC_KEY - users must provide their private key to connect.

        • PUBLIC_KEY_OR_PASSWORD - users can authenticate with either their password or their key. This is the default value.

        • PUBLIC_KEY_AND_PASSWORD - users must provide both their private key and their password to connect. The server checks the key first, and then if the key is valid, the system prompts for a password. If the private key provided does not match the public key that is stored, authentication fails.

        Possible values include:
        • "PASSWORD"
        • "PUBLIC_KEY"
        • "PUBLIC_KEY_OR_PASSWORD"
        • "PUBLIC_KEY_AND_PASSWORD"
    • LoggingRole — (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 — (String)

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

      Note: The SFTP protocol does not support post-authentication display banners.
    • PreAuthenticationLoginBanner — (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.

    • Protocols — (Array<String>)

      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

      Note:
      • 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.
    • SecurityPolicyName — (String)

      Specifies the name of the security policy for the server.

    • ServerId — (String)

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

    • WorkflowDetails — (map)

      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":[]}'

      • OnUpload — (Array<map>)

        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":[]}'

        • WorkflowIdrequired — (String)

          A unique identifier for the workflow.

        • ExecutionRolerequired — (String)

          Includes the necessary permissions for S3, EFS, and Lambda operations that Transfer can assume, so that all workflow steps can operate on the required resources

      • OnPartialUpload — (Array<map>)

        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.

        • WorkflowIdrequired — (String)

          A unique identifier for the workflow.

        • ExecutionRolerequired — (String)

          Includes the necessary permissions for S3, EFS, and Lambda operations that Transfer can assume, so that all workflow steps can operate on the required resources

    • StructuredLogDestinations — (Array<String>)

      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

    • S3StorageOptions — (map)

      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.

      • DirectoryListingOptimization — (String)

        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.

        Possible values include:
        • "ENABLED"
        • "DISABLED"

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • ServerId — (String)

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

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

updateUser(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

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\"}]"

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the updateUser operation

var params = {
  ServerId: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  UserName: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  HomeDirectory: 'STRING_VALUE',
  HomeDirectoryMappings: [
    {
      Entry: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
      Target: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
      Type: FILE | DIRECTORY
    },
    /* more items */
  ],
  HomeDirectoryType: PATH | LOGICAL,
  Policy: 'STRING_VALUE',
  PosixProfile: {
    Gid: 'NUMBER_VALUE', /* required */
    Uid: 'NUMBER_VALUE', /* required */
    SecondaryGids: [
      'NUMBER_VALUE',
      /* more items */
    ]
  },
  Role: 'STRING_VALUE'
};
transfer.updateUser(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • HomeDirectory — (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.

      Note: The HomeDirectory parameter is only used if HomeDirectoryType is set to PATH.
    • HomeDirectoryType — (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.

      Note: 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.
      Possible values include:
      • "PATH"
      • "LOGICAL"
    • HomeDirectoryMappings — (Array<map>)

      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" } ]

      • Entryrequired — (String)

        Represents an entry for HomeDirectoryMappings.

      • Targetrequired — (String)

        Represents the map target that is used in a HomeDirectoryMapEntry.

      • Type — (String)

        Specifies the type of mapping. Set the type to FILE if you want the mapping to point to a file, or DIRECTORY for the directory to point to a directory.

        Note: By default, home directory mappings have a Type of DIRECTORY when you create a Transfer Family server. You would need to explicitly set Type to FILE if you want a mapping to have a file target.
        Possible values include:
        • "FILE"
        • "DIRECTORY"
    • Policy — (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}.

      Note: 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 — (map)

      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.

      • Uidrequired — (Integer)

        The POSIX user ID used for all EFS operations by this user.

      • Gidrequired — (Integer)

        The POSIX group ID used for all EFS operations by this user.

      • SecondaryGids — (Array<Integer>)

        The secondary POSIX group IDs used for all EFS operations by this user.

    • Role — (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 — (String)

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

    • UserName — (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.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • ServerId — (String)

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

      • UserName — (String)

        The unique identifier for a user that is assigned to a server instance that was specified in the request.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

waitFor(state, params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Waits for a given Transfer resource. The final callback or 'complete' event will be fired only when the resource is either in its final state or the waiter has timed out and stopped polling for the final state.

Examples:

Waiting for the serverOffline state

var params = {
  ServerId: 'STRING_VALUE' /* required */
};
transfer.waitFor('serverOffline', params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • state (String)

    the resource state to wait for. Available states for this service are listed in "Waiter Resource States" below.

  • params (map) (defaults to: {})

    a list of parameters for the given state. See each waiter resource state for required parameters.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Callback containing error and data information. See the respective resource state for the expected error or data information.

    If the waiter times out its requests, it will return a ResourceNotReady error.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

Waiter Resource States:

Waiter Resource Details

transfer.waitFor('serverOffline', params = {}, [callback]) ⇒ AWS.Request

Waits for the serverOffline state by periodically calling the underlying Transfer.describeServer() operation every 30 seconds (at most 120 times).

Examples:

Waiting for the serverOffline state

var params = {
  ServerId: 'STRING_VALUE' /* required */
};
transfer.waitFor('serverOffline', params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object)
    • ServerId — (String)

      A system-assigned unique identifier for a server.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • Server — (map)

        An array containing the properties of a server with the ServerID you specified.

        • Arnrequired — (String)

          Specifies the unique Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the server.

        • Certificate — (String)

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

        • ProtocolDetails — (map)

          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.

          • PassiveIp — (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.

            Note: 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.

          • TlsSessionResumptionMode — (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.

              Note: 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.
            Possible values include:
            • "DISABLED"
            • "ENABLED"
            • "ENFORCED"
          • SetStatOption — (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.

            Note: 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.
            Possible values include:
            • "DEFAULT"
            • "ENABLE_NO_OP"
          • As2Transports — (Array<String>)

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

        • Domain — (String)

          Specifies 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.

          Possible values include:
          • "S3"
          • "EFS"
        • EndpointDetails — (map)

          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.

          • AddressAllocationIds — (Array<String>)

            A list of address allocation IDs that are required to attach an Elastic IP address to your server's endpoint.

            An address allocation ID corresponds to the allocation ID of an Elastic IP address. This value can be retrieved from the allocationId field from the Amazon EC2 Address data type. One way to retrieve this value is by calling the EC2 DescribeAddresses API.

            This parameter is optional. Set this parameter if you want to make your VPC endpoint public-facing. For details, see Create an internet-facing endpoint for your server.

            Note: This property can only be set as follows:
            • EndpointType must be set to VPC
            • The Transfer Family server must be offline.
            • You cannot set this parameter for Transfer Family servers that use the FTP protocol.
            • The server must already have SubnetIds populated (SubnetIds and AddressAllocationIds cannot be updated simultaneously).
            • AddressAllocationIds can't contain duplicates, and must be equal in length to SubnetIds. For example, if you have three subnet IDs, you must also specify three address allocation IDs.
            • Call the UpdateServer API to set or change this parameter.
          • SubnetIds — (Array<String>)

            A list of subnet IDs that are required to host your server endpoint in your VPC.

            Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC.
          • VpcEndpointId — (String)

            The identifier of the VPC endpoint.

            Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC_ENDPOINT. For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/transfer/latest/userguide/create-server-in-vpc.html#deprecate-vpc-endpoint.
          • VpcId — (String)

            The VPC identifier of the VPC in which a server's endpoint will be hosted.

            Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC.
          • SecurityGroupIds — (Array<String>)

            A list of security groups IDs that are available to attach to your server's endpoint.

            Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC. You can edit the SecurityGroupIds property in the UpdateServer API only if you are changing the EndpointType from PUBLIC or VPC_ENDPOINT to VPC. To change security groups associated with your server's VPC endpoint after creation, use the Amazon EC2 ModifyVpcEndpoint API.
        • EndpointType — (String)

          Defines the type of endpoint that your server is connected to. If your server is connected to a VPC endpoint, your server isn't accessible over the public internet.

          Possible values include:
          • "PUBLIC"
          • "VPC"
          • "VPC_ENDPOINT"
        • HostKeyFingerprint — (String)

          Specifies the Base64-encoded SHA256 fingerprint of the server's host key. This value is equivalent to the output of the ssh-keygen -l -f my-new-server-key command.

        • IdentityProviderDetails — (map)

          Specifies information to call a customer-supplied authentication API. This field is not populated when the IdentityProviderType of a server is AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE or SERVICE_MANAGED.

          • Url — (String)

            Provides the location of the service endpoint used to authenticate users.

          • InvocationRole — (String)

            This parameter is only applicable if your IdentityProviderType is API_GATEWAY. Provides the type of InvocationRole used to authenticate the user account.

          • DirectoryId — (String)

            The identifier of the Directory Service directory that you want to use as your identity provider.

          • Function — (String)

            The ARN for a Lambda function to use for the Identity provider.

          • SftpAuthenticationMethods — (String)

            For SFTP-enabled servers, and for custom identity providers only, you can specify whether to authenticate using a password, SSH key pair, or both.

            • PASSWORD - users must provide their password to connect.

            • PUBLIC_KEY - users must provide their private key to connect.

            • PUBLIC_KEY_OR_PASSWORD - users can authenticate with either their password or their key. This is the default value.

            • PUBLIC_KEY_AND_PASSWORD - users must provide both their private key and their password to connect. The server checks the key first, and then if the key is valid, the system prompts for a password. If the private key provided does not match the public key that is stored, authentication fails.

            Possible values include:
            • "PASSWORD"
            • "PUBLIC_KEY"
            • "PUBLIC_KEY_OR_PASSWORD"
            • "PUBLIC_KEY_AND_PASSWORD"
        • IdentityProviderType — (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.

          Possible values include:
          • "SERVICE_MANAGED"
          • "API_GATEWAY"
          • "AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE"
          • "AWS_LAMBDA"
        • LoggingRole — (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 — (String)

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

          Note: The SFTP protocol does not support post-authentication display banners.
        • PreAuthenticationLoginBanner — (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.

        • Protocols — (Array<String>)

          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

          Note:
          • 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.
        • SecurityPolicyName — (String)

          Specifies the name of the security policy for the server.

        • ServerId — (String)

          Specifies the unique system-assigned identifier for a server that you instantiate.

        • State — (String)

          The condition of the server that was described. A value of ONLINE indicates that the server can accept jobs and transfer files. A State value of OFFLINE means that the server cannot perform file transfer operations.

          The states of STARTING and STOPPING indicate that the server is in an intermediate state, either not fully able to respond, or not fully offline. The values of START_FAILED or STOP_FAILED can indicate an error condition.

          Possible values include:
          • "OFFLINE"
          • "ONLINE"
          • "STARTING"
          • "STOPPING"
          • "START_FAILED"
          • "STOP_FAILED"
        • Tags — (Array<map>)

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

          • Keyrequired — (String)

            The name assigned to the tag that you create.

          • Valuerequired — (String)

            Contains one or more values that you assigned to the key name you create.

        • UserCount — (Integer)

          Specifies the number of users that are assigned to a server you specified with the ServerId.

        • WorkflowDetails — (map)

          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.

          • OnUpload — (Array<map>)

            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":[]}'

            • WorkflowIdrequired — (String)

              A unique identifier for the workflow.

            • ExecutionRolerequired — (String)

              Includes the necessary permissions for S3, EFS, and Lambda operations that Transfer can assume, so that all workflow steps can operate on the required resources

          • OnPartialUpload — (Array<map>)

            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.

            • WorkflowIdrequired — (String)

              A unique identifier for the workflow.

            • ExecutionRolerequired — (String)

              Includes the necessary permissions for S3, EFS, and Lambda operations that Transfer can assume, so that all workflow steps can operate on the required resources

        • StructuredLogDestinations — (Array<String>)

          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

        • S3StorageOptions — (map)

          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.

          • DirectoryListingOptimization — (String)

            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.

            Possible values include:
            • "ENABLED"
            • "DISABLED"
        • As2ServiceManagedEgressIpAddresses — (Array<String>)

          The list of egress IP addresses of this server. These IP addresses are only relevant for servers that use the AS2 protocol. They are used for sending asynchronous MDNs.

          These IP addresses are assigned automatically when you create an AS2 server. Additionally, if you update an existing server and add the AS2 protocol, static IP addresses are assigned as well.

          • 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.

          • PassiveIp — (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.

            Note: 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.

          • TlsSessionResumptionMode — (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.

              Note: 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.
            Possible values include:
            • "DISABLED"
            • "ENABLED"
            • "ENFORCED"
          • SetStatOption — (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.

            Note: 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.
            Possible values include:
            • "DEFAULT"
            • "ENABLE_NO_OP"
          • As2Transports — (Array<String>)

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

        • Domain — (String)

          Specifies 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.

          Possible values include:
          • "S3"
          • "EFS"
        • EndpointDetails — (map)

          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.

          • AddressAllocationIds — (Array<String>)

            A list of address allocation IDs that are required to attach an Elastic IP address to your server's endpoint.

            An address allocation ID corresponds to the allocation ID of an Elastic IP address. This value can be retrieved from the allocationId field from the Amazon EC2 Address data type. One way to retrieve this value is by calling the EC2 DescribeAddresses API.

            This parameter is optional. Set this parameter if you want to make your VPC endpoint public-facing. For details, see Create an internet-facing endpoint for your server.

            Note: This property can only be set as follows:
            • EndpointType must be set to VPC
            • The Transfer Family server must be offline.
            • You cannot set this parameter for Transfer Family servers that use the FTP protocol.
            • The server must already have SubnetIds populated (SubnetIds and AddressAllocationIds cannot be updated simultaneously).
            • AddressAllocationIds can't contain duplicates, and must be equal in length to SubnetIds. For example, if you have three subnet IDs, you must also specify three address allocation IDs.
            • Call the UpdateServer API to set or change this parameter.
          • SubnetIds — (Array<String>)

            A list of subnet IDs that are required to host your server endpoint in your VPC.

            Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC.
          • VpcEndpointId — (String)

            The identifier of the VPC endpoint.

            Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC_ENDPOINT. For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/transfer/latest/userguide/create-server-in-vpc.html#deprecate-vpc-endpoint.
          • VpcId — (String)

            The VPC identifier of the VPC in which a server's endpoint will be hosted.

            Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC.
          • SecurityGroupIds — (Array<String>)

            A list of security groups IDs that are available to attach to your server's endpoint.

            Note: This property can only be set when EndpointType is set to VPC. You can edit the SecurityGroupIds property in the UpdateServer API only if you are changing the EndpointType from PUBLIC or VPC_ENDPOINT to VPC. To change security groups associated with your server's VPC endpoint after creation, use the Amazon EC2 ModifyVpcEndpoint API.
        • EndpointType — (String)

          Defines the type of endpoint that your server is connected to. If your server is connected to a VPC endpoint, your server isn't accessible over the public internet.

          Possible values include:
          • "PUBLIC"
          • "VPC"
          • "VPC_ENDPOINT"
        • HostKeyFingerprint — (String)

          Specifies the Base64-encoded SHA256 fingerprint of the server's host key. This value is equivalent to the output of the ssh-keygen -l -f my-new-server-key command.

        • IdentityProviderDetails — (map)

          Specifies information to call a customer-supplied authentication API. This field is not populated when the IdentityProviderType of a server is AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE or SERVICE_MANAGED.

          • Url — (String)

            Provides the location of the service endpoint used to authenticate users.

          • InvocationRole — (String)

            This parameter is only applicable if your IdentityProviderType is API_GATEWAY. Provides the type of InvocationRole used to authenticate the user account.

          • DirectoryId — (String)

            The identifier of the Directory Service directory that you want to use as your identity provider.

          • Function — (String)

            The ARN for a Lambda function to use for the Identity provider.

          • SftpAuthenticationMethods — (String)

            For SFTP-enabled servers, and for custom identity providers only, you can specify whether to authenticate using a password, SSH key pair, or both.

            • PASSWORD - users must provide their password to connect.

            • PUBLIC_KEY - users must provide their private key to connect.

            • PUBLIC_KEY_OR_PASSWORD - users can authenticate with either their password or their key. This is the default value.

            • PUBLIC_KEY_AND_PASSWORD - users must provide both their private key and their password to connect. The server checks the key first, and then if the key is valid, the system prompts for a password. If the private key provided does not match the public key that is stored, authentication fails.

            Possible values include:
            • "PASSWORD"
            • "PUBLIC_KEY"
            • "PUBLIC_KEY_OR_PASSWORD"
            • "PUBLIC_KEY_AND_PASSWORD"
        • IdentityProviderType — (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.

          Possible values include:
          • "SERVICE_MANAGED"
          • "API_GATEWAY"
          • "AWS_DIRECTORY_SERVICE"
          • "AWS_LAMBDA"
        • LoggingRole — (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 — (String)

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

          Note: The SFTP protocol does not support post-authentication display banners.
        • PreAuthenticationLoginBanner — (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.

        • Protocols — (Array<String>)

          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

          Note:
          • 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.
        • SecurityPolicyName — (String)

          Specifies the name of the security policy for the server.

        • ServerId — (String)

          Specifies the unique system-assigned identifier for a server that you instantiate.

        • State — (String)

          The condition of the server that was described. A value of ONLINE indicates that the server can accept jobs and transfer files. A State value of OFFLINE means that the server cannot perform file transfer operations.

          The states of STARTING and STOPPING indicate that the server is in an intermediate state, either not fully able to respond, or not fully offline. The values of START_FAILED or STOP_FAILED can indicate an error condition.

          Possible values include:
          • "OFFLINE"
          • "ONLINE"
          • "STARTING"
          • "STOPPING"
          • "START_FAILED"
          • "STOP_FAILED"
        • Tags — (Array<map>)

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

          • Keyrequired — (String)

            The name assigned to the tag that you create.

          • Valuerequired — (String)

            Contains one or more values that you assigned to the key name you create.

        • UserCount — (Integer)

          Specifies the number of users that are assigned to a server you specified with the ServerId.

        • WorkflowDetails — (map)

          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.

          • OnUpload — (Array<map>)

            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":[]}'

            • WorkflowIdrequired — (String)

              A unique identifier for the workflow.

            • ExecutionRolerequired — (String)

              Includes the necessary permissions for S3, EFS, and Lambda operations that Transfer can assume, so that all workflow steps can operate on the required resources

          • OnPartialUpload — (Array<map>)

            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.

            • WorkflowIdrequired — (String)

              A unique identifier for the workflow.

            • ExecutionRolerequired — (String)

              Includes the necessary permissions for S3, EFS, and Lambda operations that Transfer can assume, so that all workflow steps can operate on the required resources

        • StructuredLogDestinations — (Array<String>)

          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

        • S3StorageOptions — (map)

          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.

          • DirectoryListingOptimization — (String)

            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.

            Possible values include:
            • "ENABLED"
            • "DISABLED"
        • As2ServiceManagedEgressIpAddresses — (Array<String>)

          The list of egress IP addresses of this server. These IP addresses are only relevant for servers that use the AS2 protocol. They are used for sending asynchronous MDNs.

          These IP addresses are assigned automatically when you create an AS2 server. Additionally, if you update an existing server and add the AS2 protocol, static IP addresses are assigned as well.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.
