# Find the source standard distribution or distribution tenant Before you can move an alternate domain name from one distribution (standard or tenant) to another, find the *source distribution*. This is the resource that the alternate domain name is already associated with. When you know the AWS account ID of both the source and target distribution resources, you can determine how to move the alternate domain name. **Notes** We recommend that you use the [ListDomainConflicts](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/latest/APIReference/API_ListDomainConflicts.html) API operation, because it supports both standard distributions and distribution tenants. The [ListConflictingAliases](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/latest/APIReference/API_ListConflictingAliases.html) API operation only supports standard distributions. Follow these examples to find the source distribution (standard or tenant). ------ #### [ list-domain-conflicts ] **Tip** For a standard distribution, you must have the `cloudfront:GetDistribution` and `cloudfront:ListDomainConflicts` permissions. For a distribution tenant, you must have the `cloudfront:GetDistributionTenant` and `cloudfront:ListDomainConflicts` permissions. **To use `list-domain-conflicts` to find the source standard distribution or distribution tenant** 1. Use the `list-domain-conflicts` command as shown in the following example. 1. Replace *www.example.com* with the domain name. 1. For the `domain-control-validation-resource`, specify the ID of the target standard distribution or distribution tenant [that you set up previously](alternate-domain-names-move-create-target.md). You must have a standard distribution or distribution tenant that is associated with a certificate that covers the specified domain. 1. Run this command using the credentials that are in the same AWS account as the target standard distribution or distribution tenant. **Request** This example specifies a distribution tenant. ``` aws cloudfront list-domain-conflicts \ --domain www.example.com \ --domain-control-validation-resource "DistributionTenantId=dt_2x9GhoK0TZRsohWzv1b9It8JABC" ``` **Response** For each domain name in the command’s output, you can see the following: + The resource type that the domain is associated with + The resource ID + The AWS account ID that owns the resource The resource ID and the account ID are partially hidden. This allows you to identify the standard distribution or distribution tenant that belongs to your account, and helps to protect the information of ones that you don’t own. ``` { "DomainConflicts": [ { "Domain": "www.example.com", "ResourceType": "distribution-tenant", "ResourceId": "***************ohWzv1b9It8JABC", "AccountId": "******112233" } ] } ``` The response lists all the domain names that conflict or overlap with the one that you specified. **Example** + If you specify *tenant1.example.com*, the response includes tenant1.example.com and the overlapping wildcard alternate domain name (\$1.example.com if it exists). + If you specify *\$1.tenant1.example.com*, the response includes \$1.tenant1.example.com and any alternate domain names covered by that wildcard (for example, test.tenant1.example.com, dev.tenant1.example.com, and so on). 1. In the response, find the source standard distribution or distribution tenant for the alternate domain name that you're moving, and note the AWS account ID. 1. Compare the account ID of the *source* standard distribution or distribution tenant with the account ID where you created the *target* standard distribution or distribution tenant in the [previous step](alternate-domain-names-move-create-target.md). You can then determine whether the source and target are in the same AWS account. This helps you determine how to move the alternate domain name. For more information, see the [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/cloudfront/list-domain-conflicts.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/cloudfront/list-domain-conflicts.html) command in the *AWS Command Line Interface Reference*. ------ #### [ list-conflicting-aliases (standard distributions only) ] **Tip** You must have the `cloudfront:GetDistribution` and `cloudfront:ListConflictingAliases` permissions on the target standard distribution. **To use `list-conflicting-aliases` to find the source standard distribution** 1. Use the `list-conflicting-aliases` command as shown in the following example. 1. Replace *www.example.com* with the alternate domain name, and *EDFDVBD6EXAMPLE* with the ID of the target standard distribution [that you set up previously](alternate-domain-names-move-create-target.md). 1. Run this command using credentials that are in the same AWS account as the target standard distribution. **Request** This example specifies a standard distribution. ``` aws cloudfront list-conflicting-aliases \ --alias www.example.com \ --distribution-id EDFDVBD6EXAMPLE ``` **Response** For each alternate domain name in the command’s output, you can see the ID of the standard distribution that it’s associated with, and the AWS account ID that owns the standard distribution. The standard distribution and account IDs are partially hidden, which allows you to identify the standard distributions and accounts that you own, and helps to protect the information of ones that you don’t own. ``` { "ConflictingAliasesList": { "MaxItems": 100, "Quantity": 1, "Items": [ { "Alias": "www.example.com", "DistributionId": "*******EXAMPLE", "AccountId": "******112233" } ] } } ``` The response lists the alternate domain names that conflict or overlap with the one that you specified. **Example** + If you specify *www.example.com*, the response includes www.example.com and the overlapping wildcard alternate domain name (\$1.example.com) if it exists. + If you specify *\$1.example.com*, the response includes \$1.example.com and any alternate domain names covered by that wildcard (for example, www.example.com, test.example.com, dev.example.com, and so on). 1. Find the standard distribution for the alternate domain name that you're moving, and note the AWS account ID. Compare this account ID with the account ID where you created the target standard distribution in the [previous step](alternate-domain-names-move-create-target.md). You can then determine whether these two standard distributions are in the same AWS account and how to move the alternate domain name.
