Validate stack deployments

With pre-deployment validation, you can identify and resolve potential deployment issues before CloudFormation provisions resources. Pre-deployment validation runs automatically on Create Stack, Update Stack, and Create Change Set operations, catching common errors in seconds.

How pre-deployment validation works

Pre-deployment validation involves these phases:

Initiate a stack operation – Create a stack, update a stack, or create a change set as you normally would. Pre-deployment validation is enabled by default on all three operations.
Validation execution – CloudFormation runs multiple validation checks against your template and target environment. CloudFormation supports six types of pre-deployment validation. Property syntax validation and resource name conflict detection run on all supported operations. Four additional validations run during change set creation only: S3 bucket emptiness validation, service quota checks, Recorder conflict detection, and ECR repository delete readiness.
Review validation results – CloudFormation provides detailed feedback on any issues found, including precise path pinpointing the issue location in template, eliminating manual template debugging.
Resolve issues – Address identified problems by updating your templates or resolving conflicts before proceeding with deployment.
Execute with confidence – Proceed with your deployment knowing that common failure scenarios have been validated upfront.

Note

For Create Stack and Update Stack operations, validation runs as part of the operation itself. If validation fails in FAIL mode, the operation stops before any resources are provisioned and the stack status reflects the validation failure. For change sets, the change set status shows FAILED.

Considerations

As you use pre-deployment validation, keep the following in mind:

Pre-deployment validation focuses on common deployment failure scenarios. It doesn't guarantee that your deployment will succeed, but reduces the likelihood of common failures.
Validation modes behave differently:
- FAIL mode stops the operation before any resources are provisioned when validation detects errors. For CreateStack and UpdateStack, the operation fails and the stack status reflects the validation failure. For CreateChangeSet, the change set status shows FAILED. This applies to property syntax errors and resource naming conflicts.
- WARN mode allows change set creation to succeed despite validation failures, providing warnings that developers can review and address before execution. This applies to constraint violations like S3 bucket emptiness that may be resolvable through manual intervention.
For change set operations, validation results are tied to the specific change set. If you modify your template, create a new change set to get updated validation results. For CreateStack and UpdateStack operations, use the describe-events command with the operation ID to access validation results.
S3 bucket validation only checks for object presence, not for bucket policies or other constraints that might prevent deletion.
Pre-deployment validation adds a small amount of latency to Create Stack and Update Stack operations while validations run. This is typically a few seconds. If you need to skip validation for a specific operation, use the DisableValidation parameter.

Prerequisites

To use pre-deployment validation, you must have:

The necessary IAM permissions to create stacks, update stacks, or create change sets, and read resources in your account. The validation checks that run during change set creation require the following additional permissions:
- Service quota check – cloudwatch:GetMetricData, lambda:GetAccountSettings, servicequotas:GetServiceQuota, ec2:DescribeSecurityGroups, and iam:GetAccountSummary
- Recorder conflict check – config:ListConfigurationRecorders
- S3 bucket emptiness and ECR repository checks – s3:ListBucketV2 and ecr:ListImages
Access to the AWS Regions where your stacks are deployed.
CloudFormation templates that you want to validate before deployment.

Disable pre-deployment validation

Pre-deployment validation runs by default. To skip validation for a specific operation, use the DisableValidation parameter.

Disable validation in the following situations:

When you have already validated your template through other means (such as cfn-lint, cdk validate, or CI checks)
When you need to minimize operation latency for time-sensitive deployments
When a known false positive is blocking your deployment and you need to proceed

AWS CLI examples:


aws cloudformation create-stack --stack-name MyStack --template-body file://template.yaml --disable-validation


aws cloudformation update-stack --stack-name MyStack --template-body file://template.yaml --disable-validation

API: Set the DisableValidation parameter to true on the CreateStack or UpdateStack API call.

Note

Disabling validation means CloudFormation does not catch common errors until it attempts to provision resources.

Validate a stack deployment (console)

Pre-deployment validation runs automatically on CreateStack and UpdateStack operations. No additional steps are required.

To validate during stack creation or update

Create or update your stack as you normally would.
If validation detects errors, the operation stops before provisioning begins. The stack status reflects the validation failure.
To review validation results, open the stack's Events tab and choose the operation ID—or choose the link in the banner or the Status reason column. The Operation view page opens directly on the Deployment validations tab, which shows validation details, including Logical ID, Resource type, Validation type, Mode, and Status reason.
Fix the identified issues in your template and retry the operation.

Validate using a change set (console)

You can also use change sets to validate your template before deployment. Change sets support all six validation types, including WARN-mode validations (S3 bucket emptiness, service quota, Config Recorder conflict, and ECR repository delete readiness) that are only available during change set creation. You can use a change set to validate a new stack before you create it, or to validate an update to an existing stack.

To validate using a change set

Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the CloudFormation console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudformation.
On the navigation bar at the top of the screen, choose the AWS Region where your stack is located.
On the Stacks page, choose the running stack you want to create a change set for.
In the stack details pane, choose Update Stack, and then choose Create a change set.
On the Create change set for stack-name page, upload your updated template or specify the template source.
Choose Next to proceed through the remaining change set configuration steps.
If the template includes IAM resources, for Capabilities, choose I acknowledge that CloudFormation might create IAM resources. IAM resources can modify permissions in your AWS account; review these resources to ensure that you're permitting only the actions that you intend. For more information, see Acknowledging IAM resources in CloudFormation templates.
On the Review page, choose Create change set.
CloudFormation creates the change set and runs validation checks. Review the validation results in the Deployment validation tab.
If validation passes or you're satisfied with the warnings, choose Execute Change set to deploy your changes.
If validation fails, fix the issues and create a new change set to re-validate your deployment.

Validate a stack deployment (AWS CLI)

Pre-deployment validation runs automatically on create-stack and update-stack commands.

Create a stack with validation

Use the following command to create a stack. Pre-deployment validation runs automatically.


aws cloudformation create-stack \
  --stack-name MyStack \
  --template-body file://template.yaml

Update a stack with validation

Use the following command to update a stack. Pre-deployment validation runs automatically.


aws cloudformation update-stack \
  --stack-name MyStack \
  --template-body file://updated-template.yaml

View validation results

Use the following command to view validation results for a stack operation.


aws cloudformation describe-events \
  --stack-name MyStack

Example output of validation errors:


{
   "OperationEvents":[
      {
         "EventId":"9b5c9a29-4704-4ad0-8082-afb49418d55b",

         "ValidationPath":"/Resources/NotificationBucket/Properties/NotificationConfiguration/QueueConfigurations/0"
      }
   ]
}

Validate using a change set (AWS CLI)

Change sets also surface WARN-mode validations that are not available on direct stack operations.

To validate using a change set

Use the create-change-set command:


aws cloudformation create-change-set \
  --stack-name MyStack \
  --change-set-name MyChangeSet \
  --change-set-type "CREATE" \
  --template-body file://updated-template.yaml

The command returns both the change set ARN and the stack ARN.

Use the describe-events command with the change set ARN to review validation status and results.


aws cloudformation describe-events \
  --change-set-name "arn:aws:cloudformation:us-east-1:123456789012:changeSet/MyChangeSet/94498df5-1afb-43b1-9869-9f82b2d877ac"

Address any validation errors by updating your template, then create a new change set.

After validation passes, execute the change set:


aws cloudformation execute-change-set \
  --change-set-name MyChangeSet \
  --stack-name MyStack

Validation types

Pre-deployment validation includes the following types of checks:

Property Syntax Validation – Validates resource properties against AWS resource schemas. It checks for required properties and valid property values and identifies deprecated or unsupported property combinations.
Resource Name Conflict Detection – Checks for naming conflicts with existing AWS resources. It validates that resource names meet AWS naming requirements and identifies potential conflicts before deployment attempts.
S3 Bucket Emptiness Validation – Warns when attempting to delete S3 buckets that contain objects. It provides object counts to help assess deletion impact and helps prevent common S3 deletion failures.
Service Quota Validation – Checks whether creating resources would exceed your AWS service quotas. This validation currently runs during change set creation only and operates in WARN mode. The operation proceeds, and you receive alerts about potential quota issues.
Recorder Conflict Detection – Warns when your template adds rules to an account that doesn't have recording enabled, or defines an Recorder in an account where one is already active. This validation currently runs during change set creation only and operates in WARN mode.
ECR Repository Delete Readiness – Validates that ECR repositories targeted for deletion are empty or have appropriate force-delete settings. This validation currently runs during change set creation only and operates in WARN mode.

The following table summarizes each validation type, its mode, and the operations on which it runs.

Validation type	Mode	Available on
Property syntax validation	FAIL	CreateStack, UpdateStack, CreateChangeSet
Resource name conflict (RAE)	FAIL	CreateStack, UpdateStack, CreateChangeSet
S3 bucket emptiness	WARN	CreateChangeSet
Service Quota	WARN	CreateChangeSet
Recorder conflict	WARN	CreateChangeSet
ECR Repository delete readiness	WARN	CreateChangeSet

Each validation type provides specific error messages and with error location in the template to help you resolve issues quickly.
