summary: Create Backup Access Point
description: Creates a backup access point for an Amazon S3 recovery point. A backup access point provides on-demand, read-only access to the backup data in a recovery point through an Amazon S3 access point, without initiating a restore. While a backup access point is active for a recovery point, Backup pauses lifecycle transitions and blocks deletion of that recovery point.

summary: Delete Backup Access Point
description: Deletes a backup access point. This deletes the underlying Amazon S3 access point and, if no other backup access points remain for the recovery point, resumes lifecycle transitions for that recovery point. Always delete backup access points using this operation rather than deleting the underlying Amazon S3 access point directly.
