1**To create a CloudFront origin access identity** 2 3The following example creates a CloudFront origin access identity (OAI) by 4providing the OAI configuration as a command line argument:: 5 6 aws cloudfront create-cloud-front-origin-access-identity \ 7 --cloud-front-origin-access-identity-config \ 8 CallerReference="cli-example",Comment="Example OAI" 9 10You can accomplish the same thing by providing the OAI configuration in a JSON 11file, as shown in the following example:: 12 13 aws cloudfront create-cloud-front-origin-access-identity \ 14 --cloud-front-origin-access-identity-config file://OAI-config.json 15 16The file ``OAI-config.json`` is a JSON document in the current directory that 17contains the following:: 18 19 { 20 "CallerReference": "cli-example", 21 "Comment": "Example OAI" 22 } 23 24Whether you provide the OAI configuration with a command line argument or a 25JSON file, the output is the same:: 26 27 { 28 "Location": "https://cloudfront.amazonaws.com/2019-03-26/origin-access-identity/cloudfront/E74FTE3AEXAMPLE", 29 "ETag": "E2QWRUHEXAMPLE", 30 "CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentity": { 31 "Id": "E74FTE3AEXAMPLE", 32 "S3CanonicalUserId": "cd13868f797c227fbea2830611a26fe0a21ba1b826ab4bed9b7771c9aEXAMPLE", 33 "CloudFrontOriginAccessIdentityConfig": { 34 "CallerReference": "cli-example", 35 "Comment": "Example OAI" 36 } 37 } 38 } 39
