access_points

Creates, updates, deletes or gets an access_point resource or lists access_points in a region

Overview

Nameaccess_points
TypeResource
DescriptionThe AWS::EFS::AccessPoint resource creates an EFS access point. An access point is an application-specific view into an EFS file system that applies an operating system user and group, and a file system path, to any file system request made through the access point. The operating system user and group override any identity information provided by the NFS client. The file system path is exposed as the access point's root directory. Applications using the access point can only access data in its own directory and below. To learn more, see [Mounting a file system using EFS access points](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/efs/latest/ug/efs-access-points.html).
This operation requires permissions for the elasticfilesystem:CreateAccessPoint action.

file_system_id,
posix_user,
root_directory
FROM aws.efs.access_points
WHERE region = 'us-east-1';

Gets all properties from an individual access_point.

SELECT
region,
access_point_id,
arn,
client_token,
access_point_tags,
file_system_id,
posix_user,
root_directory
FROM aws.efs.access_points
WHERE region = 'us-east-1' AND data__Identifier = '<AccessPointId>';

INSERT example

Use the following StackQL query and manifest file to create a new access_point resource, using stack-deploy.

/*+ create */
INSERT INTO aws.efs.access_points (
FileSystemId,
region
)
SELECT
'{{ FileSystemId }}',
'{{ region }}';

DELETE example

/*+ delete */
DELETE FROM aws.efs.access_points
WHERE data__Identifier = '<AccessPointId>'
AND region = 'us-east-1';
