CreateWorkloadShare

Create a workload share.

The owner of a workload can share it with other AWS accounts and users in the same AWS Region. Shared access to a workload is not removed until the workload invitation is deleted.

If you share a workload with an organization or OU, all accounts in the organization or OU are granted access to the workload.

For more information, see Sharing a workload in the AWS Well-Architected Tool User Guide.
