Amazon Cloud Directory Amazon Cloud Directory is a component of the AWS Directory Service that simplifies the development and management of cloud-scale web, mobile, and IoT applications. This guide describes the Cloud Directory operations that you can call programmatically and includes detailed information on data types and errors. For information about Cloud Directory features, see AWS Directory Service and the Amazon Cloud Directory Developer Guide

Subcommands

NameDescription
add-facet-to-objectAdds a new Facet to an object. An object can have more than one facet applied on it
apply-schemaCopies the input published schema, at the specified version, into the Directory with the same name and version as that of the published schema
attach-objectAttaches an existing object to another object. An object can be accessed in two ways: Using the path Using ObjectIdentifier
attach-policyAttaches a policy object to a regular object. An object can have a limited number of attached policies
attach-to-indexAttaches the specified object to the specified index
attach-typed-linkAttaches a typed link to a specified source and target object. For more information, see Typed Links
batch-readPerforms all the read operations in a batch
batch-writePerforms all the write operations in a batch. Either all the operations succeed or none
create-directoryCreates a Directory by copying the published schema into the directory. A directory cannot be created without a schema. You can also quickly create a directory using a managed schema, called the QuickStartSchema. For more information, see Managed Schema in the Amazon Cloud Directory Developer Guide
create-facetCreates a new Facet in a schema. Facet creation is allowed only in development or applied schemas
create-indexCreates an index object. See Indexing and search for more information
create-objectCreates an object in a Directory. Additionally attaches the object to a parent, if a parent reference and LinkName is specified. An object is simply a collection of Facet attributes. You can also use this API call to create a policy object, if the facet from which you create the object is a policy facet
create-schemaCreates a new schema in a development state. A schema can exist in three phases: Development: This is a mutable phase of the schema. All new schemas are in the development phase. Once the schema is finalized, it can be published. Published: Published schemas are immutable and have a version associated with them. Applied: Applied schemas are mutable in a way that allows you to add new schema facets. You can also add new, nonrequired attributes to existing schema facets. You can apply only published schemas to directories
create-typed-link-facetCreates a TypedLinkFacet. For more information, see Typed Links
delete-directoryDeletes a directory. Only disabled directories can be deleted. A deleted directory cannot be undone. Exercise extreme caution when deleting directories
delete-facetDeletes a given Facet. All attributes and Rules that are associated with the facet will be deleted. Only development schema facets are allowed deletion
delete-objectDeletes an object and its associated attributes. Only objects with no children and no parents can be deleted. The maximum number of attributes that can be deleted during an object deletion is 30. For more information, see Amazon Cloud Directory Limits
delete-schemaDeletes a given schema. Schemas in a development and published state can only be deleted
delete-typed-link-facetDeletes a TypedLinkFacet. For more information, see Typed Links
detach-from-indexDetaches the specified object from the specified index
detach-objectDetaches a given object from the parent object. The object that is to be detached from the parent is specified by the link name
detach-policyDetaches a policy from an object
detach-typed-linkDetaches a typed link from a specified source and target object. For more information, see Typed Links
disable-directoryDisables the specified directory. Disabled directories cannot be read or written to. Only enabled directories can be disabled. Disabled directories may be reenabled
enable-directoryEnables the specified directory. Only disabled directories can be enabled. Once enabled, the directory can then be read and written to
get-applied-schema-versionReturns current applied schema version ARN, including the minor version in use
get-directoryRetrieves metadata about a directory
get-facetGets details of the Facet, such as facet name, attributes, Rules, or ObjectType. You can call this on all kinds of schema facets -- published, development, or applied
get-link-attributesRetrieves attributes that are associated with a typed link
get-object-attributesRetrieves attributes within a facet that are associated with an object
get-object-informationRetrieves metadata about an object
get-schema-as-jsonRetrieves a JSON representation of the schema. See JSON Schema Format for more information
get-typed-link-facet-informationReturns the identity attribute order for a specific TypedLinkFacet. For more information, see Typed Links
list-applied-schema-arnsLists schema major versions applied to a directory. If SchemaArn is provided, lists the minor version
list-attached-indicesLists indices attached to the specified object
list-development-schema-arnsRetrieves each Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of schemas in the development state
list-directoriesLists directories created within an account
list-facet-attributesRetrieves attributes attached to the facet
list-facet-namesRetrieves the names of facets that exist in a schema
list-incoming-typed-linksReturns a paginated list of all the incoming TypedLinkSpecifier information for an object. It also supports filtering by typed link facet and identity attributes. For more information, see Typed Links
list-indexLists objects attached to the specified index
list-managed-schema-arnsLists the major version families of each managed schema. If a major version ARN is provided as SchemaArn, the minor version revisions in that family are listed instead
list-object-attributesLists all attributes that are associated with an object
list-object-childrenReturns a paginated list of child objects that are associated with a given object
list-object-parent-pathsRetrieves all available parent paths for any object type such as node, leaf node, policy node, and index node objects. For more information about objects, see Directory Structure. Use this API to evaluate all parents for an object. The call returns all objects from the root of the directory up to the requested object. The API returns the number of paths based on user-defined MaxResults, in case there are multiple paths to the parent. The order of the paths and nodes returned is consistent among multiple API calls unless the objects are deleted or moved. Paths not leading to the directory root are ignored from the target object
list-object-parentsLists parent objects that are associated with a given object in pagination fashion
list-object-policiesReturns policies attached to an object in pagination fashion
list-outgoing-typed-linksReturns a paginated list of all the outgoing TypedLinkSpecifier information for an object. It also supports filtering by typed link facet and identity attributes. For more information, see Typed Links
list-policy-attachmentsReturns all of the ObjectIdentifiers to which a given policy is attached
list-published-schema-arnsLists the major version families of each published schema. If a major version ARN is provided as SchemaArn, the minor version revisions in that family are listed instead
list-tags-for-resourceReturns tags for a resource. Tagging is currently supported only for directories with a limit of 50 tags per directory. All 50 tags are returned for a given directory with this API call
list-typed-link-facet-attributesReturns a paginated list of all attribute definitions for a particular TypedLinkFacet. For more information, see Typed Links
list-typed-link-facet-namesReturns a paginated list of TypedLink facet names for a particular schema. For more information, see Typed Links
lookup-policyLists all policies from the root of the Directory to the object specified. If there are no policies present, an empty list is returned. If policies are present, and if some objects don't have the policies attached, it returns the ObjectIdentifier for such objects. If policies are present, it returns ObjectIdentifier, policyId, and policyType. Paths that don't lead to the root from the target object are ignored. For more information, see Policies
publish-schemaPublishes a development schema with a major version and a recommended minor version
put-schema-from-jsonAllows a schema to be updated using JSON upload. Only available for development schemas. See JSON Schema Format for more information
remove-facet-from-objectRemoves the specified facet from the specified object
tag-resourceAn API operation for adding tags to a resource
untag-resourceAn API operation for removing tags from a resource
update-facetDoes the following: Adds new Attributes, Rules, or ObjectTypes. Updates existing Attributes, Rules, or ObjectTypes. Deletes existing Attributes, Rules, or ObjectTypes

update-schemaUpdates the schema name with a new name. Only development schema names can be updated
update-typed-link-facetUpdates a TypedLinkFacet. For more information, see Typed Links
upgrade-applied-schemaUpgrades a single directory in-place using the PublishedSchemaArn with schema updates found in MinorVersion. Backwards-compatible minor version upgrades are instantaneously available for readers on all objects in the directory. Note: This is a synchronous API call and upgrades only one schema on a given directory per call. To upgrade multiple directories from one schema, you would need to call this API on each directory
upgrade-published-schemaUpgrades a published schema under a new minor version revision using the current contents of DevelopmentSchemaArn
