Options¶

--subdirectory (string)

Specifies a prefix in the S3 bucket that DataSync reads from or writes to (depending on whether the bucket is a source or destination location).

Note
DataSync can’t transfer objects with a prefix that begins with a slash (/ ) or includes // , /./ , or /../ patterns. For example:

/photos

photos//2006/January

photos/./2006/February

photos/../2006/March

--s3-bucket-arn (string)

Specifies the ARN of the S3 bucket that you want to use as a location. (When creating your DataSync task later, you specify whether this location is a transfer source or destination.)

If your S3 bucket is located on an Outposts resource, you must specify an Amazon S3 access point. For more information, see Managing data access with Amazon S3 access points in the Amazon S3 User Guide .

--s3-storage-class (string)

Specifies the storage class that you want your objects to use when Amazon S3 is a transfer destination.

For buckets in Amazon Web Services Regions, the storage class defaults to STANDARD . For buckets on Outposts, the storage class defaults to OUTPOSTS .

For more information, see Storage class considerations with Amazon S3 transfers .

Possible values:

STANDARD

STANDARD_IA

ONEZONE_IA

INTELLIGENT_TIERING

GLACIER

DEEP_ARCHIVE

OUTPOSTS

GLACIER_INSTANT_RETRIEVAL

--s3-config (structure)

Specifies the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that DataSync uses to access your S3 bucket.

For more information, see Accessing S3 buckets .

BucketAccessRoleArn -> (string)

Specifies the ARN of the IAM role that DataSync uses to access your S3 bucket.

Shorthand Syntax:

BucketAccessRoleArn=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "BucketAccessRoleArn": "string"
}

--agent-arns (list)

(Amazon S3 on Outposts only) Specifies the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the DataSync agent on your Outpost.

For more information, see Deploy your DataSync agent on Outposts .

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--tags (list)

Specifies labels that help you categorize, filter, and search for your Amazon Web Services resources. We recommend creating at least a name tag for your transfer location.

(structure)

A key-value pair representing a single tag that’s been applied to an Amazon Web Services resource.

Key -> (string)

The key for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.

Value -> (string)

The value for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.

Shorthand Syntax:

Key=string,Value=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Key": "string",
    "Value": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--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.

Global Options¶

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

json
text
table
yaml
yaml-stream

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

on
off
auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-binary-format (string)

The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.

base64
raw-in-base64-out

--no-cli-pager (boolean)

Disable cli pager for output.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

Output¶

LocationArn -> (string)

The ARN of the S3 location that you created.
