How to declare multi region access point in cloudformation template

Question

I want to add a multi region access point policy to my cloudformation template and I am getting a syntax error as undefined resource when running the cloudformation template
Template error: instance of Fn::GetAtt references undefined resource m67ckh1qr8zan.mrap
Can someone help me with the correct format of declaring and using a multi region access point by a cloudformation template. Thanks.

Answer

Hi,

Hope this template helps. Pre-requisite is to have at least two buckets in different regions created already so as to reference those bucket names in the CF template

```
{
    "AWSTemplateFormatVersion": "2010-09-09",
    "Resources": {
        "MyMRAP": {
          "Type" : "AWS::S3::MultiRegionAccessPoint",
          "Properties" : {
            "PublicAccessBlockConfiguration" : {
              "BlockPublicAcls" : "True",
              "BlockPublicPolicy" : "True",
              "IgnorePublicAcls" : "True",
              "RestrictPublicBuckets" : "True"
            },
            "Regions" : [ {"Bucket":"bucket1"}, {"Bucket": "bucket2"} ]
        }
      }
    }
}
```
Replace the bucket1/bucket2 in above code with the actual bucket names. I was able to successfully create Multi region Access point with the above code
