CreateTrust - Amazon Directory Service
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

CreateTrust

Amazon Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory allows you to configure trust relationships. For example, you can establish a trust between your Amazon Managed Microsoft AD directory, and your existing self-managed Microsoft Active Directory. This would allow you to provide users and groups access to resources in either domain, with a single set of credentials.

This action initiates the creation of the Amazon side of a trust relationship between an Amazon Managed Microsoft AD directory and an external domain. You can create either a forest trust or an external trust.
