2025/06/25 - Amazon FSx - 3 new api methods
Changes Add support for the ability to create Amazon S3 Access Points for Amazon FSx for OpenZFS file systems.
Creates an S3 access point and attaches it to an Amazon FSx volume. For FSx for OpenZFS file systems, the volume must be hosted on a high-availability file system, either Single-AZ or Multi-AZ. For more information, see Accessing your data using access points in the Amazon FSx for OpenZFS User Guide.
The requester requires the following permissions to perform these actions:
fsx:CreateAndAttachS3AccessPoint
s3:CreateAccessPoint
s3:GetAccessPoint
s3:PutAccessPointPolicy
s3:DeleteAccessPoint
The following actions are related to CreateAndAttachS3AccessPoint:
DescribeS3AccessPointAttachments
DetachAndDeleteS3AccessPoint
