Account-based endpoints

Note

For help in understanding the layout of settings pages, or in interpreting the Support by AWS SDKs and tools table that follows, see Understanding the settings pages of this guide.

Account-based endpoints help ensure high performance and scalability by using your AWS account ID to route requests for services that support this feature. When you use an AWS SDK and service that support account-based endpoints, the SDK client constructs and uses an account-based endpoint rather than a regional endpoint. If the account ID isn't visible to the SDK client, the client will use the regional endpoint. Account-based endpoints take the form of https://<account-id>.ddb.<region>.amazonaws.com, where <account-id> and <region> are your AWS account ID and AWS Region.

Configure this functionality by using the following:

aws_account_id - shared AWS config file setting
AWS_ACCOUNT_ID - environment variable
aws.accountId - JVM system property: Java/Kotlin only

The AWS account ID. Used for account-based endpoint routing. An AWS account ID has a format like 111122223333.

Account-based endpoint routing provides better request performance for some services.

account_id_endpoint_mode - shared AWS config file setting
AWS_ACCOUNT_ID_ENDPOINT_MODE - environment variable
aws.accountIdEndpointMode - JVM system property: Java/Kotlin only

This setting is used to turn off account-based endpoint routing if necessary, and bypass account-based rules.

Default value: preferred

Valid values:

  • preferred – The endpoint should include account ID if available.

  • disabled – A resolved endpoint doesn't include account ID.

  • required – The endpoint must include account ID. If the account ID isn't available, the SDK throws an error.
