aws transfer71 CLI commands available for AWS Transfer Family.
| Command | API Operation | Sample |
|---|---|---|
create-accessUsed by administrators to choose which groups in the directory should have access to upload and download files over the enabled protocols using Transfer Family. For example, a Microsoft Active Directory might contain 50,000 users, but only a small fraction might need the ability to transfer files to | CreateAccess | |
create-agreementCreates an agreement. An agreement is a bilateral trading partner agreement, or partnership, between an Transfer Family server and an AS2 process. The agreement defines the file and message transfer relationship between the server and the AS2 process. To define an agreement, Transfer Family combines | CreateAgreement | |
create-connectorCreates the connector, which captures the parameters for a connection for the AS2 or SFTP protocol.
