The virtual private cloud (VPC) endpoint settings that you want to configure for your SFTP server. This parameter is required when you specify a value for the EndpointType parameter.
The ID of the VPC endpoint.
The RSA private key as generated by the ssh-keygen -N "" -f my-new-server-key command.
Warning
If you aren't planning to migrate existing users from an existing SFTP server to a new AWS SFTP server, don't update the host key. Accidentally changing a server's host key can be disruptive.
For more information, see "https://alpha-docs-aws.amazon.com/transfer/latest/userguide/configuring-servers.html#change-host-key" in the AWS SFTP User Guide.
This parameter is required when the IdentityProviderType is set to API_GATEWAY . Accepts an array containing all of the information required to call a customer-supplied authentication API, including the API Gateway URL. This property is not required when the IdentityProviderType is set to SERVICE_MANAGED .
The Url parameter provides contains the location of the service endpoint used to authenticate users.
The InvocationRole parameter provides the type of InvocationRole used to authenticate the user account.
Key-value pairs that can be used to group and search for servers.
Creates a key-value pair for a specific resource. Tags are metadata that you can use to search for and group a resource for various purposes. You can apply tags to servers, users, and roles. A tag key can take more than one value. For example, to group servers for accounting purposes, you might create a tag called Group and assign the values Research and Accounting to that group.

ServerId (string) --
The service-assigned ID of the SFTP server that is created.
Creates a user and associates them with an existing Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) server. You can only create and associate users with SFTP servers that have the IdentityProviderType set to SERVICE_MANAGED . Using parameters for CreateUser , you can specify the user name, set the home directory, store the user's public key, and assign the user's AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) role. You can also optionally add a scope-down policy, and assign metadata with tags that can be used to group and search for users.

The landing directory (folder) for a user when they log in to the server using their SFTP client.
An example is <your-Amazon-S3-bucket-name>/home/username .
Logical directory mappings that specify what S3 paths and keys should be visible to your user and how you want to make them visible. You will need to specify the "Entry " and "Target " pair, where Entry shows how the path is made visible and Target is the actual S3 path. If you only specify a target, it will be displayed as is. You will need to also make sure that your AWS IAM Role provides access to paths in Target . The following is an example.
'[ "/bucket2/documentation", { "Entry": "your-personal-report.pdf", "Target": "/bucket3/customized-reports/${transfer:UserName}.pdf" } ]'
In most cases, you can use this value instead of the scope down policy to lock your user down to the designated home directory ("chroot"). To do this, you can set Entry to '/' and set Target to the HomeDirectory parameter value.
Represents an object that contains entries and a targets for HomeDirectoryMappings .
Represents an entry and a target for HomeDirectoryMappings .
Represents the map target that is used in a HomeDirectorymapEntry .
A scope-down policy for your user so you can use the same IAM role across multiple users. This policy scopes down user access to portions of their Amazon S3 bucket. Variables that you can use inside this policy include ${Transfer:UserName} , ${Transfer:HomeDirectory} , and ${Transfer:HomeBucket} .
Note
For scope-down policies, AWS Transfer for SFTP stores the policy as a JSON blob, instead of the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the policy. You save the policy as a JSON blob and pass it in the Policy argument.
For an example of a scope-down policy, see "https://docs.aws.amazon.com/transfer/latest/userguide/users.html#users-policies-scope-down">Creating a Scope-Down Policy.
For more information, see "https://docs.aws.amazon.com/STS/latest/APIReference/API_AssumeRole.html" in the AWS Security Token Service API Reference .
[REQUIRED]

ServerId (string) --
A system-assigned unique identifier for an SFTP server that the user account is assigned to.
Assigns new properties to a user. Parameters you pass modify any or all of the following: the home directory, role, and policy for the UserName and ServerId you specify.
The response returns the ServerId and the UserName for the updated user.
See also: AWS API Documentation
Request Syntax
response = client.update_user(
HomeDirectory='string',
HomeDirectoryType='PATH'|'LOGICAL',
HomeDirectoryMappings=[
{
'Entry': 'string',
'Target': 'string'
},
],
Policy='string',
Role='string',
ServerId='string',
UserName='string'
)
A parameter that specifies the landing directory (folder) for a user when they log in to the server using their client.
An example is <your-Amazon-S3-bucket-name>/home/username .
Logical directory mappings that specify what S3 paths and keys should be visible to your user and how you want to make them visible. You will need to specify the "Entry " and "Target " pair, where Entry shows how the path is made visible and Target is the actual S3 path. If you only specify a target, it will be displayed as is. You will need to also make sure that your AWS IAM Role provides access to paths in Target . The following is an example.
'[ "/bucket2/documentation", { "Entry": "your-personal-report.pdf", "Target": "/bucket3/customized-reports/${transfer:UserName}.pdf" } ]'
In most cases, you can use this value instead of the scope down policy to lock your user down to the designated home directory ("chroot"). To do this, you can set Entry to '/' and set Target to the HomeDirectory parameter value.
Represents an object that contains entries and a targets for HomeDirectoryMappings .
Represents an entry and a target for HomeDirectoryMappings .
Represents the map target that is used in a HomeDirectorymapEntry .
Allows you to supply a scope-down policy for your user so you can use the same AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) role across multiple users. The policy scopes down user access to portions of your Amazon S3 bucket. Variables you can use inside this policy include ${Transfer:UserName} , ${Transfer:HomeDirectory} , and ${Transfer:HomeBucket} .
Note
For scope-down policies, AWS Transfer for SFTP stores the policy as a JSON blob, instead of the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the policy. You save the policy as a JSON blob and pass it in the Policy argument.
For an example of a scope-down policy, see "https://docs.aws.amazon.com/transfer/latest/userguide/users.html#users-policies-scope-down">Creating a Scope-Down Policy.
For more information, see "https://docs.aws.amazon.com/STS/latest/APIReference/API_AssumeRole.html" in the AWS Security Token Service API Reference .

response_iterator = paginator.paginate(
PaginationConfig={
'MaxItems': 123,
'PageSize': 123,
'StartingToken': 'string'
}
)
A dictionary that provides parameters to control pagination.
The total number of items to return. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified in max-items then a NextToken will be provided in the output that you can use to resume pagination.
The size of each page.
A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previous response.

Response Structure
An array of servers that were listed.
Returns properties of the server that was specified.
The unique Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the server to be listed.
The authentication method used to validate a user for the server that was specified. This can include Secure Shell (SSH), user name and password combinations, or your own custom authentication method. Valid values include SERVICE_MANAGED or API_GATEWAY .
The type of VPC endpoint that your SFTP server is connected to. If your SFTP server is connected to a VPC endpoint, your server isn't accessible over the public internet.
The AWS Identity and Access Management entity that allows the server to turn on Amazon CloudWatch logging.
This value is the unique system assigned identifier for the SFTP servers that were listed.
This property describes the condition of the SFTP server for the server that was described. A value of ONLINE > indicates that the server can accept jobs and transfer files. A State value of OFFLINE means that the server cannot perform file transfer operations.
The states of STARTING and STOPPING indicate that the server is in an intermediate state, either not fully able to respond, or not fully offline. The values of START_FAILED or STOP_FAILED can indicate an error condition.
This property is a numeric value that indicates the number of users that are assigned to the SFTP server you specified with the ServerId .
