Home directory - Restricted in aws transfer family using cloud formation template

Question

Hi,

For adding a user with a home directory mapping, I tried the below stack template.

However, the home directory was not created after stack was run. It was in restricted mode.

If we only do to edit user configuration manually we can uncheck restricted.

I want to implement this mode in yaml template.

Please help me to do better.

```
GoldcoastTvodUser:
    Type: 'AWS::Transfer::User'
    Properties:
      HomeDirectoryMappings:
        - Entry: /
          Target: /goldcoast-tvod
      HomeDirectoryType: LOGICAL
      Policy:
        'Fn::Sub': |
          {
            "Version": "2012-10-17",
            "Statement": {
              "Sid": "AllowFullAccessToBucket",
              "Action": "s3:*",
              "Effect": "Allow", 
              "Resource": [
                "arn:aws:s3:::goldcoast-tvod",
                "arn:aws:s3:::goldcoast-tvod/*"
              ]
            }
          }
      Role:
        'Fn::Sub': 'arn:aws:iam::${AWS::AccountId}:role/TransferManagementRole'
      ServerId:
        'Fn::GetAtt': TransferServer.ServerId
      SshPublicKeys:
        - >-
          ssh-rsa
          AAAAB
      UserName: GoldcoastTvodUser

```

Accepted Answer

If you change the `HomeDirectoryType` to `PATH`, it'll remove the restricted.

```
      HomeDirectory: "/goldcoast-tvod"
      HomeDirectoryType: "PATH"
```

P.S. although it's only a public SSH key, you might want to remove it from your question.
