Here’s an example of a bash script that enables all active directories in an AWS account for use with Amazon WorkSpaces using the AWS CLI:
#!/bin/bash
# Set the AWS CLI region
aws configure set default.region us-west-2
# Get a list of all the active directories in the AWS account
active_directories=$(aws ds list-directories --query 'DirectoryDescriptions[].DirectoryId' --output text)
# Loop through the list of active directories
for directory in $active_directories; do
# Enable the directory for use with Amazon WorkSpaces
aws workspaces enable-workspace-directory --directory-id $directory
# Confirm that the directory has been enabled
enabled_directories=$(aws workspaces describe-workspace-directories --directory-ids $directory --query 'Directories[].DirectoryId' --output text)
if [ $enabled_directories == $directory ]; then
echo "Success: Directory $directory has been enabled for use with Amazon WorkSpaces."
else
echo "Error: Directory $directory could not be enabled for use with Amazon WorkSpaces."
fi
done
In this example, the AWS CLI is used to retrieve a list of all the active directories in the AWS account, and the bash script loops through that list, enabling each directory for use with Amazon WorkSpaces. The script then confirms that each directory has been successfully enabled by checking the list of enabled directories. If a directory has been successfully enabled, the script will print a success message, and if not, it will print an error message.
This script enables all the active directories in the AWS account for use with Amazon WorkSpaces. You can modify this script to fit your specific needs, such as filtering the list of active directories based on certain criteria.
The register-workspace-directory
command is used to register a directory in Amazon WorkSpaces, which enables you to use Amazon WorkSpaces with your existing directory.
Here’s an example of how you can use the register-workspace-directory
command in the AWS CLI:
aws workspaces register-workspace-directory --directory-id d-1234567890 --subnet-ids subnet-1234567890 subnet-2345678901 --enable-work-docs true --enable-self-service true
In this example, d-1234567890
is the ID of the directory you want to register, subnet-1234567890
and subnet-2345678901
are the IDs of the subnets in which to launch Amazon WorkSpaces, --enable-work-docs true
enables Amazon WorkDocs for the directory, and --enable-self-service true
enables self-service capabilities for your users.
You can also specify other optional parameters when using the register-workspace-directory
command, such as the default organizational unit (OU) for your WorkSpaces and the default security group for your WorkSpaces. You can find more information on these parameters and the register-workspace-directory
command in the Amazon WorkSpaces documentation.
