Request syntax

svc$share_directory(
  DirectoryId = "string",

Details

When you share your AWS Managed Microsoft AD directory, AWS Directory Service creates a shared directory in the directory consumer account. This shared directory contains the metadata to provide access to the directory within the directory owner account. The shared directory is visible in all VPCs in the directory consumer account.

The ShareMethod parameter determines whether the specified directory can be shared between AWS accounts inside the same AWS organization (ORGANIZATIONS). It also determines whether you can share the directory with any other AWS account either inside or outside of the organization (HANDSHAKE).

The ShareNotes parameter is only used when HANDSHAKE is called, which sends a directory sharing request to the directory consumer.
