# AWS::Lambda::NetworkConnector
<a name="aws-resource-lambda-networkconnector"></a>

The `AWS::Lambda::NetworkConnector` resource creates a network connector that enables Lambda MicroVMs to reach resources in a virtual private cloud (VPC). A network connector provisions elastic network interfaces (ENIs) in the subnets you specify, providing a managed network path to private resources such as databases, caches, and internal APIs.

## Syntax
<a name="aws-resource-lambda-networkconnector-syntax"></a>

To declare this entity in your CloudFormation template, use the following syntax:

### JSON
<a name="aws-resource-lambda-networkconnector-syntax.json"></a>

```
{
  "Type" : "AWS::Lambda::NetworkConnector",
  "Properties" : {
      "[Configuration](#cfn-lambda-networkconnector-configuration)" : {{Config}},
      "[Name](#cfn-lambda-networkconnector-name)" : {{String}},
      "[OperatorRole](#cfn-lambda-networkconnector-operatorrole)" : {{String}},
      "[Tags](#cfn-lambda-networkconnector-tags)" : {{[ Tag, ... ]}}
    }
}
```

### YAML
<a name="aws-resource-lambda-networkconnector-syntax.yaml"></a>

```
Type: AWS::Lambda::NetworkConnector
Properties:
  [Configuration](#cfn-lambda-networkconnector-configuration): {{
    Config}}

    - Tag}}
```

## Properties
<a name="aws-resource-lambda-networkconnector-properties"></a>

`Configuration`  <a name="cfn-lambda-networkconnector-configuration"></a>
The network configuration for the connector. Specify a `VpcEgressConfiguration` to enable outbound traffic routing through your VPC.  
*Required*: Yes

## Return values
<a name="aws-resource-lambda-networkconnector-return-values"></a>

### Ref
<a name="aws-resource-lambda-networkconnector-return-values-ref"></a>

When you pass the logical ID of this resource to the intrinsic `Ref` function, `Ref` returns the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the network connector.

For more information about using the `Ref` function, see [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-ref.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-ref.html).

### Fn::GetAtt
<a name="aws-resource-lambda-networkconnector-return-values-fn--getatt"></a>

The `Fn::GetAtt` intrinsic function returns a value for a specified attribute of this type. The following are the available attributes and sample return values.

For more information about using the `Fn::GetAtt` intrinsic function, see [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-getatt.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-getatt.html).

#### 
<a name="aws-resource-lambda-networkconnector-return-values-fn--getatt-fn--getatt"></a>
