AWS::CloudFront::Distribution CacheTagConfig - AWS CloudFormation

This is the new CloudFormation Template Reference Guide. Please update your bookmarks and links. For help getting started with CloudFormation, see the AWS CloudFormation User Guide.

AWS::CloudFront::Distribution CacheTagConfig

A complex type that specifies the HTTP header name from which CloudFront extracts cache tags from origin responses. When you add CacheTagConfig to a distribution, CloudFront reads the specified header from origin responses, parses the comma-separated tag values, and stores them with the cached object. You can then invalidate cached objects by tag using the CreateInvalidation API.

Syntax

To declare this entity in your CloudFormation template, use the following syntax:

JSON

{ "HeaderName" : String }

YAML

Properties

HeaderName
