Config file options

dynamic_users

If set to true then the stack will also create an SNS topic that takes a payload like:

{
  "username": "username",
  "bucket": "s3-bucket-name",
  "TTL": 7,
  "home": "/home/subfolder",
  "access": ["put", "delete", "mkdir"],
  "keys": ['ssh-AAAA', 'ssh-BBBB']
}

username, bucket, and TTL are required, the rest are optional

This SNS topic will then trigger a lambda which will automatically handle the creation of the temporary sftp user

A scheduled daily clean up lambda will automatically delete the temporary sftp user after the specified TTL

endpoint

PUBLIC - public SFTP endpoint

VPC - allows you to attach a security group to the SFTP endpoint to restrict access. Must specify a public subnet (i.e. with an internet gateway route)

VPC_ENDPOINT - old way of doing things, it is recommended that you use the VPC option instead
