AWS amazonq documentation change

Service: amazonq · 2025-10-01 · Documentation low

File: amazonq/latest/qbusiness-ug/exchange-connector.md

Summary

Added connector version documentation, split console instructions into legacy/new connectors, added API section for new connector, and clarified feature availability between versions.

Security assessment

Changes focus on feature differentiation between connector versions and documentation organization. While ACL crawling is mentioned, this appears to be a functional capability rather than a security feature. No security controls or vulnerabilities are addressed.
