AWS opensearch-service: Replace placeholders in network access policy examples

Service: opensearch-service · 2026-10-08 · Documentation low

File: opensearch-service/latest/developerguide/application-network-access-reference.md

Summary

VPC endpoint, VPC, and application ARN placeholders were replaced with concrete sample values (vpce-1234567890abcdef0, vpc-1234567890abcdef0, us-east-1/111122223333).

Security assessment

These are illustrative condition keys and ARNs in deny/allow policy examples; the security logic (SourceVpce/SourceVpc conditions) is unchanged, only placeholder text was made concrete.

Evidence

                        "aws:SourceVpce": "vpce-1234567890abcdef0"
