--certificate
(string)
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon Web ServicesCertificate Manager (ACM) certificate. Required when
Protocols
is set toFTPS
.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.
--protocol-details
(structure)
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 theSetStatOption
parameter. To have the Transfer Family server ignore theSETSTAT
command and upload files without needing to make any changes to your SFTP client, set the value toENABLE_NO_OP
. If you set theSetStatOption
parameter toENABLE_NO_OP
, Transfer Family generates a log entry to Amazon CloudWatch Logs, so that you can determine when the client is making aSETSTAT
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 .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 duringCreateServer
andUpdateServer
calls. If aTlsSessionResumptionMode
value is not specified duringCreateServer
, it is set toENFORCED
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 toENFORCED
, 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.SetStatOption -> (string)
Use the
SetStatOption
to ignore the error that is generated when the client attempts to useSETSTAT
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 theSETSTAT
command, and upload files without needing to make any changes to your SFTP client. While theSetStatOption
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 aSETSTAT
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.As2Transports -> (list)
Indicates the transport method for the AS2 messages. Currently, only HTTP is supported.
(string)

--endpoint-details
(structure)
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 -> (list)
A list of address allocation IDs that are required to attach an Elastic IP address to your server’s endpoint.
Note
This property can only be set when
EndpointType
is set toVPC
and it is only valid in theUpdateServer
API.(string)
SubnetIds -> (list)
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 toVPC
.(string)
VpcEndpointId -> (string)
The ID of the VPC endpoint.
Note
This property can only be set when
EndpointType
is set toVPC_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 ID of the VPC in which a server’s endpoint will be hosted.
Note
This property can only be set when
EndpointType
is set toVPC
.SecurityGroupIds -> (list)
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 toVPC
.You can edit the
SecurityGroupIds
property in the UpdateServer API only if you are changing theEndpointType
fromPUBLIC
orVPC_ENDPOINT
toVPC
. To change security groups associated with your server’s VPC endpoint after creation, use the Amazon EC2 ModifyVpcEndpoint API.(string)
Shorthand Syntax:
AddressAllocationIds=string,string,SubnetIds=string,string,VpcEndpointId=string,VpcId=string,SecurityGroupIds=string,string
JSON Syntax:

}
--endpoint-type
(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 withEndpointType=VPC_ENDPOINT
in your Amazon Web Servicesaccount on or before May 19, 2021, you will not be affected. After this date, useEndpointType
=``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 theEndpointType
. 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 withEndpointType
set toVPC_ENDPOINT
.Possible values:
PUBLIC
VPC
VPC_ENDPOINT
--host-key
(string)
The RSA, ECDSA, or ED25519 private key to use for your server.
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.
Warning
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 Change the host key for your SFTP-enabled server in the Transfer Family User Guide .

.
--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.
