Creates or updates a destination. This operation is used only to create destinations for cross-account subscriptions.

A destination encapsulates a physical resource (such as an Amazon Kinesis stream). With a destination, you can subscribe to a real-time stream of log events for a different account, ingested using PutLogEvents.

Through an access policy, a destination controls what is written to it. By default, PutDestination does not set any access policy with the destination, which means a cross-account user cannot call PutSubscriptionFilter against this destination. To enable this, the destination owner must call PutDestinationPolicy after PutDestination.

To perform a PutDestination operation, you must also have the iam:PassRole permission.
