<a name="aws-properties-mediaconnect-bridge-failoverconfig-syntax.json"></a>

```
{
  "[FailoverMode](#cfn-mediaconnect-bridge-failoverconfig-failovermode)" : String,
  "[SourcePriority](#cfn-mediaconnect-bridge-failoverconfig-sourcepriority)" : SourcePriority,
  "[State](#cfn-mediaconnect-bridge-failoverconfig-state)" : String
}
```

### YAML
<a name="aws-properties-mediaconnect-bridge-failoverconfig-syntax.yaml"></a>

```
  [FailoverMode](#cfn-mediaconnect-bridge-failoverconfig-failovermode): String
  [SourcePriority](#cfn-mediaconnect-bridge-failoverconfig-sourcepriority): 
    SourcePriority
  [State](#cfn-mediaconnect-bridge-failoverconfig-state): String
```

## Properties
<a name="aws-properties-mediaconnect-bridge-failoverconfig-properties"></a>

`FailoverMode`  <a name="cfn-mediaconnect-bridge-failoverconfig-failovermode"></a>
 The type of failover you choose for this flow. MERGE combines the source streams into a single stream, allowing graceful recovery from any single-source loss. FAILOVER allows switching between different streams.  
*Required*: Yes  
*Type*: String  
*Allowed values*: `FAILOVER`  
*Update requires*: [No interruption](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/using-cfn-updating-stacks-update-behaviors.html#update-no-interrupt)

`SourcePriority`  <a name="cfn-mediaconnect-bridge-failoverconfig-sourcepriority"></a>
 The priority you want to assign to a source. You can have a primary stream and a backup stream or two equally prioritized streams.  
*Required*: No  
*Type*: [SourcePriority](aws-properties-mediaconnect-bridge-sourcepriority.md)  
*Update requires*: [No interruption](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/using-cfn-updating-stacks-update-behaviors.html#update-no-interrupt)

`State`  <a name="cfn-mediaconnect-bridge-failoverconfig-state"></a>
The state of source failover on the flow. If the state is inactive, the flow can have only one source. If the state is active, the flow can have one or two sources.   
*Required*: No  
*Type*: String  
*Allowed values*: `ENABLED | DISABLED`  
*Update requires*: [No interruption](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/using-cfn-updating-stacks-update-behaviors.html#update-no-interrupt)
