AWS v6.80.0 published on Tuesday, May 6, 2025 by Pulumi
pulumi/pulumi-aws

    Provides a resource to manage the default AWS VPC in the current AWS Region.

    If you created your AWS account after 2013-12-04 you have a default VPC in each AWS Region.

    This is an advanced resource and has special caveats to be aware of when using it. Please read this document in its entirety before using this resource.

    The aws.ec2.DefaultVpc resource behaves differently from normal resources in that if a default VPC exists, this provider does not create this resource, but instead “adopts” it into management. If no default VPC exists, the provider creates a new default VPC, which leads to the implicit creation of other resources. By default, pulumi destroy does not delete the default VPC but does remove the resource from the state. Set the force_destroy argument to true to delete the default VPC.

    Example Usage

    Basic usage with tags:

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

const _default = new aws.ec2.DefaultVpc("default", {tags: {
    Name: "Default VPC",
}});

    import pulumi
import pulumi_aws as aws

default = aws.ec2.DefaultVpc("default", tags={
    "Name": "Default VPC",
})

    package main

import (
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi-aws/sdk/v6/go/aws/ec2"
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi/sdk/v3/go/pulumi"
)

func main() {
	pulumi.Run(func(ctx *pulumi.Context) error {
		_, err := ec2.NewDefaultVpc(ctx, "default", &ec2.DefaultVpcArgs{
			Tags: pulumi.StringMap{
				"Name": pulumi.String("Default VPC"),
			},
		})
		if err != nil {
			return err
		}
		return nil
	})
}

    using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using Pulumi;
using Aws = Pulumi.Aws;

return await Deployment.RunAsync(() => 
{
    var @default = new Aws.Ec2.DefaultVpc("default", new()
    {
        Tags = 
        {
            { "Name", "Default VPC" },
        },
    });

});
