<a name="create-vpc-endpoint"></a>

You can create an Amazon Organizations endpoint in your VPC using the Amazon VPC Console, the Amazon Command Line Interface (Amazon CLI) or Amazon CloudFormation.

For information about creating and configuring an endpoint using the Amazon VPC console or the Amazon CLI, see [Create a VPC endpoint](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/vpc/latest/privatelink/create-interface-endpoint.html#create-interface-endpoint-aws) in the *Amazon VPC User Guide*. For information about creating and configuring an endpoint using Amazon CloudFormation, see the [AWS::EC2::VPCEndpoint](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-ec2-vpcendpoint.html) resource in the *Amazon CloudFormation User Guide*.

When you create an Amazon Organizations endpoint, use the following as the service name:

```
com.amazonaws.us-east-1.organizations
```

If you require FIPS 140-2 validated cryptographic modules when accessing Amazon, use the following Amazon Organizations FIPS service name:

```
com.amazonaws.us-east-1.organizations-fips
```
