create-vpc-endpoint¶
Description¶
Creates a VPC endpoint for a specified service. An endpoint enables you to create a private connection between your VPC and the service. The service may be provided by Amazon Web Services, an Amazon Web Services Marketplace Partner, or another Amazon Web Services account. For more information, see the Amazon Web Services PrivateLink Guide .

Options¶
--dry-run | --no-dry-run (boolean)
Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is
DryRunOperation. Otherwise, it isUnauthorizedOperation.
--vpc-endpoint-type (string)
The type of endpoint.
Default: Gateway
Possible values:
Interface
Gateway
GatewayLoadBalancer
--vpc-id (string)
The ID of the VPC in which the endpoint will be used.
--service-name (string)
The service name. To get a list of available services, use the DescribeVpcEndpointServices request, or get the name from the service provider.
--policy-document (string)
(Interface and gateway endpoints) A policy to attach to the endpoint that controls access to the service. The policy must be in valid JSON format. If this parameter is not specified, we attach a default policy that allows full access to the service.
--route-table-ids (list)
(Gateway endpoint) One or more route table IDs.
(string)
Syntax:
"string" "string" ...
--subnet-ids (list)
(Interface and Gateway Load Balancer endpoints) The ID of one or more subnets in which to create an endpoint network interface. For a Gateway Load Balancer endpoint, you can specify one subnet only.
(string)
Syntax:
"string" "string" ...
--security-group-ids (list)
(Interface endpoint) The ID of one or more security groups to associate with the endpoint network interface.
(string)
Syntax:
"string" "string" ...
--ip-address-type (string)
The IP address type for the endpoint.
Possible values:
ipv4
dualstack
ipv6
--dns-options (structure)
The DNS options for the endpoint.
DnsRecordIpType -> (string)
The DNS records created for the endpoint.
Shorthand Syntax:
DnsRecordIpType=string
JSON Syntax:
{
"DnsRecordIpType": "ipv4"|"dualstack"|"ipv6"|"service-defined"
}
--client-token (string)
Unique, case-sensitive identifier that you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. For more information, see How to ensure idempotency .
--private-dns-enabled | --no-private-dns-enabled (boolean)
(Interface endpoint) Indicates whether to associate a private hosted zone with the specified VPC. The private hosted zone contains a record set for the default public DNS name for the service for the Region (for example,
kinesis.us-east-1.amazonaws.com), which resolves to the private IP addresses of the endpoint network interfaces in the VPC. This enables you to make requests to the default public DNS name for the service instead of the public DNS names that are automatically generated by the VPC endpoint service.To use a private hosted zone, you must set the following VPC attributes to
true:enableDnsHostnamesandenableDnsSupport. Use ModifyVpcAttribute to set the VPC attributes.Default:
true
--tag-specifications (list)
The tags to associate with the endpoint.
(structure)
The tags to apply to a resource when the resource is being created.
Note
The
Valid Valueslists all the resource types that can be tagged. However, the action you’re using might not support tagging all of these resource types. If you try to tag a resource type that is unsupported for the action you’re using, you’ll get an error.ResourceType -> (string)
The type of resource to tag on creation.
Tags -> (list)
The tags to apply to the resource.
(structure)
Describes a tag.
Key -> (string)
The key of the tag.
Constraints: Tag keys are case-sensitive and accept a maximum of 127 Unicode characters. May not begin with
aws:.Value -> (string)
The value of the tag.
Constraints: Tag values are case-sensitive and accept a maximum of 256 Unicode characters.

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string)
Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.
--generate-cli-skeleton (string)
Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
Examples¶
Note
To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.
Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .
Example 1: To create a gateway endpoint
The following create-vpc-endpoint example creates a gateway VPC endpoint between VPC vpc-1a2b3c4d and Amazon S3 in the us-east-1 region, and associates route table rtb-11aa22bb with the endpoint.
aws ec2 create-vpc-endpoint \
--vpc-id vpc-1a2b3c4d \
--service-name com.amazonaws.us-east-1.s3 \
--route-table-ids rtb-11aa22bb
Output:

Example 2: To create an interface endpoint
The following create-vpc-endpoint example creates an interface VPC endpoint between VPC vpc-1a2b3c4d and Amazon S3 in the us-east-1 region. The command creates the endpoint in subnet subnet-1a2b3c4d, associates it with security group sg-1a2b3c4d, and adds a tag with a key of “Service” and a Value of “S3”.
aws ec2 create-vpc-endpoint \
--vpc-id vpc-1a2b3c4d \
--vpc-endpoint-type Interface \
--service-name com.amazonaws.us-east-1.s3 \

Example 3: To create a Gateway Load Balancer endpoint
The following create-vpc-endpoint example creates a Gateway Load Balancer endpoint between VPC vpc-111122223333aabbc and and a service that is configured using a Gateway Load Balancer.
