SecurityGroup

Provides a security group resource.

NOTE on Security Groups and Security Group Rules: This provider currently provides both a standalone Security Group Rule resource (a single ingress or egress rule), and a Security Group resource with ingress and egress rules defined in-line. At this time you cannot use a Security Group with in-line rules in conjunction with any Security Group Rule resources. Doing so will cause a conflict of rule settings and will overwrite rules.
NOTE: Referencing Security Groups across VPC peering has certain restrictions. More information is available in the VPC Peering User Guide.
NOTE: Due to AWS Lambda improved VPC networking changes that began deploying in September 2019, security groups associated with Lambda Functions can take up to 45 minutes to successfully delete.
Usage with prefix list IDs

Prefix Lists are either managed by AWS internally, or created by the customer using a Prefix List resource. Prefix Lists provided by AWS are associated with a prefix list name, or service name, that is linked to a specific region. Prefix list IDs are exported on VPC Endpoints, so you can use this format:

import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";

const myEndpoint = new aws.ec2.VpcEndpoint("myEndpoint", {});
// ... other configuration ...
// ... other configuration ...
const example = new aws.ec2.SecurityGroup("example", {egress: [{
    fromPort: 0,
    toPort: 0,
    protocol: "-1",
    prefixListIds: [myEndpoint.prefixListId],
}]});

import pulumi
import pulumi_aws as aws

my_endpoint = aws.ec2.VpcEndpoint("myEndpoint")
# ... other configuration ...
# ... other configuration ...
example = aws.ec2.SecurityGroup("example", egress=[aws.ec2.SecurityGroupEgressArgs(
    from_port=0,
    to_port=0,
    protocol="-1",
    prefix_list_ids=[my_endpoint.prefix_list_id],
)])

using Pulumi;
using Aws = Pulumi.Aws;

class MyStack : Stack
{
    public MyStack()
    {
        var myEndpoint = new Aws.Ec2.VpcEndpoint("myEndpoint", new Aws.Ec2.VpcEndpointArgs
        {
        });
        // ... other configuration ...
        // ... other configuration ...
        var example = new Aws.Ec2.SecurityGroup("example", new Aws.Ec2.SecurityGroupArgs
        {
            Egress = 
            {
                new Aws.Ec2.Inputs.SecurityGroupEgressArgs
                {
                    FromPort = 0,
                    ToPort = 0,
                    Protocol = "-1",
                    PrefixListIds = 
                    {
                        myEndpoint.PrefixListId,
                    },
                },
            },
        });
    }

}

package main

import (
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi-aws/sdk/v3/go/aws/ec2"
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi/sdk/v2/go/pulumi"
)

func main() {
	pulumi.Run(func(ctx *pulumi.Context) error {
		myEndpoint, err := ec2.NewVpcEndpoint(ctx, "myEndpoint", nil)
		if err != nil {
			return err
		}
		_, err = ec2.NewSecurityGroup(ctx, "example", &ec2.SecurityGroupArgs{
			Egress: ec2.SecurityGroupEgressArray{
				&ec2.SecurityGroupEgressArgs{
					FromPort: pulumi.Int(0),
					ToPort:   pulumi.Int(0),
					Protocol: pulumi.String("-1"),
					PrefixListIds: pulumi.StringArray{
						myEndpoint.PrefixListId,
					},
				},
			},
		})
		if err != nil {
			return err
		}
		return nil
	})
}

You can also find a specific Prefix List using the aws.getPrefixList data source.
