Dear Amazon Web Services Customer,
In December 2017, we announced that Amazon EC2, Amazon EBS, and AWS Storage Gateway are migrating to longer format resource IDs to support the ongoing growth of Amazon Web Services. Starting today, you can click on “Switch to longer IDs” in the AWS Management Console or use the APIs to receive longer IDs.
Systems that parse or store resource IDs may not work with longer IDs. We strongly recommend that you test your systems interoperability with longer IDs. After June 2018, all new resources will receive longer IDs. We will continue to support shorter IDs for existing resources.
Additional information including details of how to test your systems can be found in the FAQs and docs. Please contact the AWS support team on the community forums or via AWS Premium Support if you have questions. Click below to switch to longer IDs now.
