/**
*
* The WorkDocs API is designed for the following use cases:
*
*
* -
*
* File Migration: File migration applications are supported for users who want to migrate their files from an
* on-premise or off-premise file system or service. Users can insert files into a user directory structure, as well as
* allow for basic metadata changes, such as modifications to the permissions of files.
*
*
* -
*
* Security: Support security applications are supported for users who have additional security needs, such as
* anti-virus or data loss prevention. The APIs, in conjunction with Amazon CloudTrail, allow these applications to
* detect when changes occur in Amazon WorkDocs, so the application can take the necessary actions and replace the
* target file. The application can also choose to email the user if the target file violates the policy.
*
*
* -
*
* eDiscovery/Analytics: General administrative applications are supported, such as eDiscovery and analytics. These
* applications can choose to mimic and/or record the actions in an Amazon WorkDocs site, in conjunction with Amazon
* CloudTrails, to replicate data for eDiscovery, backup, or analytical applications.
*
*
*
*
* All Amazon WorkDocs APIs are Amazon authenticated, certificate-signed APIs. They not only require the use of the AWS
* SDK, but also allow for the exclusive use of IAM users and roles to help facilitate access, trust, and permission
* policies. By creating a role and allowing an IAM user to access the Amazon WorkDocs site, the IAM user gains full
* administrative visibility into the entire Amazon WorkDocs site (or as set in the IAM policy). This includes, but is
* not limited to, the ability to modify file permissions and upload any file to any user. This allows developers to
* perform the three use cases above, as well as give users the ability to grant access on a selective basis using the
* IAM model.
