CfnRule L1 construct ​

Creates or updates the specified rule.

Rules are enabled by default, or based on value of the state. You can disable a rule using DisableRule .

A single rule watches for events from a single event bus. Events generated by AWS services go to your account's default event bus. Events generated by SaaS partner services or applications go to the matching partner event bus. If you have custom applications or services, you can specify whether their events go to your default event bus or a custom event bus that you have created. For more information, see CreateEventBus .

If you are updating an existing rule, the rule is replaced with what you specify in this PutRule command. If you omit arguments in PutRule , the old values for those arguments are not kept. Instead, they are replaced with null values.

When you create or update a rule, incoming events might not immediately start matching to new or updated rules. Allow a short period of time for changes to take effect.

A rule must contain at least an EventPattern or ScheduleExpression. Rules with EventPatterns are triggered when a matching event is observed. Rules with ScheduleExpressions self-trigger based on the given schedule. A rule can have both an EventPattern and a ScheduleExpression, in which case the rule triggers on matching events as well as on a schedule.

Most services in AWS treat : or / as the same character in Amazon Resource Names (ARNs). However, EventBridge uses an exact match in event patterns and rules. Be sure to use the correct ARN characters when creating event patterns so that they match the ARN syntax in the event you want to match.

In EventBridge, it is possible to create rules that lead to infinite loops, where a rule is fired repeatedly. For example, a rule might detect that ACLs have changed on an S3 bucket, and trigger software to change them to the desired state. If the rule is not written carefully, the subsequent change to the ACLs fires the rule again, creating an infinite loop.

To prevent this, write the rules so that the triggered actions do not re-fire the same rule. For example, your rule could fire only if ACLs are found to be in a bad state, instead of after any change.

An infinite loop can quickly cause higher than expected charges. We recommend that you use budgeting, which alerts you when charges exceed your specified limit. For more information, see Managing Your Costs with Budgets .

As an aid to help you jumpstart developing CloudFormation templates, the EventBridge console enables you to create templates from the existing rules in your account. For more information, see Generating CloudFormation templates from an EventBridge rule in the Amazon EventBridge User Guide .

notes

If you're setting an event bus in another account as the target and that account granted permission to your account through an organization instead of directly by the account ID, you must specify a RoleArn with proper permissions in the Target structure, instead of here in this parameter.

For example, "cron(0 20 * * ? *)", "rate(5 minutes)". For more information, see Creating an Amazon EventBridge rule that runs on a schedule .

stateoptionalstringstateoptionalstrstateoptionalStringStateoptionalstringStateoptional*string#
The state of the rule.
notes

Valid values include:

  • DISABLED : The rule is disabled. EventBridge does not match any events against the rule.
  • ENABLED : The rule is enabled. EventBridge matches events against the rule, except for AWS management events delivered through CloudTrail.
  • ENABLED_WITH_ALL_CLOUDTRAIL_MANAGEMENT_EVENTS : The rule is enabled for all events, including AWS management events delivered through CloudTrail.

Management events provide visibility into management operations that are performed on resources in your AWS account. These are also known as control plane operations. For more information, see Logging management events in the CloudTrail User Guide , and Filtering management events from AWS services in the Amazon EventBridge User Guide .

This value is only valid for rules on the default event bus or custom event buses . It does not apply to partner event buses .

notes

Targets are the resources that are invoked when a rule is triggered.

The maximum number of entries per request is 10.

Each rule can have up to five (5) targets associated with it at one time.

For a list of services you can configure as targets for events, see EventBridge targets in the Amazon EventBridge User Guide .

Creating rules with built-in targets is supported only in the AWS Management Console . The built-in targets are:

  • Amazon EBS CreateSnapshot API call
  • Amazon EC2 RebootInstances API call
  • Amazon EC2 StopInstances API call
  • Amazon EC2 TerminateInstances API call

For some target types, PutTargets provides target-specific parameters. If the target is a Kinesis data stream, you can optionally specify which shard the event goes to by using the KinesisParameters argument. To invoke a command on multiple EC2 instances with one rule, you can use the RunCommandParameters field.

To be able to make API calls against the resources that you own, Amazon EventBridge needs the appropriate permissions:

  • For AWS Lambda and Amazon SNS resources, EventBridge relies on resource-based policies.
  • For EC2 instances, Kinesis Data Streams, AWS Step Functions state machines and API Gateway APIs, EventBridge relies on IAM roles that you specify in the RoleARN argument in PutTargets .

For more information, see Authentication and Access Control in the Amazon EventBridge User Guide .

If another AWS account is in the same region and has granted you permission (using PutPermission ), you can send events to that account. Set that account's event bus as a target of the rules in your account. To send the matched events to the other account, specify that account's event bus as the Arn value when you run PutTargets . If your account sends events to another account, your account is charged for each sent event. Each event sent to another account is charged as a custom event. The account receiving the event is not charged. For more information, see Amazon EventBridge Pricing .

Input , InputPath , and InputTransformer are not available with PutTarget if the target is an event bus of a different AWS account.

If you are setting the event bus of another account as the target, and that account granted permission to your account through an organization instead of directly by the account ID, then you must specify a RoleArn with proper permissions in the Target structure. For more information, see Sending and Receiving Events Between AWS Accounts in the Amazon EventBridge User Guide .

If you have an IAM role on a cross-account event bus target, a PutTargets call without a role on the same target (same Id and Arn ) will not remove the role.

For more information about enabling cross-account events, see PutPermission .

Input , InputPath , and InputTransformer are mutually exclusive and optional parameters of a target. When a rule is triggered due to a matched event:

  • If none of the following arguments are specified for a target, then the entire event is passed to the target in JSON format (unless the target is Amazon EC2 Run Command or Amazon ECS task, in which case nothing from the event is passed to the target).
  • If Input is specified in the form of valid JSON, then the matched event is overridden with this constant.
  • If InputPath is specified in the form of JSONPath (for example, $.detail ), then only the part of the event specified in the path is passed to the target (for example, only the detail part of the event is passed).
  • If InputTransformer is specified, then one or more specified JSONPaths are extracted from the event and used as values in a template that you specify as the input to the target.

When you specify InputPath or InputTransformer , you must use JSON dot notation, not bracket notation.

When you add targets to a rule and the associated rule triggers soon after, new or updated targets might not be immediately invoked. Allow a short period of time for changes to take effect.

This action can partially fail if too many requests are made at the same time. If that happens, FailedEntryCount is non-zero in the response and each entry in FailedEntries provides the ID of the failed target and the error code.

Syntactic sugar for `addOverride(path, undefined)`.
1 parameter

Parameters

  • pathpathpathpathPath — The path of the value to delete.
addDependency(target: CfnResource): voiddef add_dependency(self, target: CfnResource) -> Nonepublic void addDependency(CfnResource target)public void AddDependency(CfnResource target)func AddDependency(Target CfnResource)deprecated#
Use `addResourceDependency` instead.

This method has been renamed to addResourceDependency to more clearly set it apart from construct.node.addDependency. See the documentation of that function for more details.

addDependsOn(target: CfnResource): voiddef add_depends_on(self, target: CfnResource) -> Nonepublic void addDependsOn(CfnResource target)public void AddDependsOn(CfnResource target)func AddDependsOn(Target CfnResource)deprecated#
Use `addResourceDependency` instead.
notes

This can be used for resources across stacks (or nested stack) boundaries and the dependency will automatically be transferred to the relevant scope.

This method has been renamed to addResourceDependency, which makes it more clear that this method operates at a different level from the construct-level construct.node.addDependency() mechanism.

addMetadata(key: string, value: any): voiddef add_metadata(self, key: str, value: Any) -> Nonepublic void addMetadata(String key, Object value)public void AddMetadata(string key, object value)func AddMetadata(Key *string, Value interface{})#
Add a value to the CloudFormation Resource Metadata.
addOverride(path: string, value: any): voiddef add_override(self, path: str, value: Any) -> Nonepublic void addOverride(String path, Object value)public void AddOverride(string path, object value)func AddOverride(Path *string, Value interface{})#
Adds an override to the synthesized CloudFormation resource.
notes · 2 parameters

To add a property override, either use addPropertyOverride or prefix path with "Properties." (i.e. Properties.TopicName).

If the override is nested, separate each nested level using a dot (.) in the path parameter. If there is an array as part of the nesting, specify the index in the path.

To include a literal . in the property name, prefix with a \. In most programming languages you will need to write this as "\\." because the \ itself will need to be escaped.

For example,

typescript
cfnResource.addOverride('Properties.GlobalSecondaryIndexes.0.Projection.NonKeyAttributes', ['myattribute']);
cfnResource.addOverride('Properties.GlobalSecondaryIndexes.1.ProjectionType', 'INCLUDE');

would add the overrides

json
"Properties": {
  "GlobalSecondaryIndexes": [
    {
      "Projection": {
        "NonKeyAttributes": [ "myattribute" ]
        ...
      }
      ...
    },
    {
      "ProjectionType": "INCLUDE"
      ...
    },
  ]
  ...
}

The value argument to addOverride will not be processed or translated in any way. Pass raw JSON values in here with the correct capitalization for CloudFormation. If you pass CDK classes or structs, they will be rendered with lowercased key names, and CloudFormation will reject the template.

Parameters

  • pathpathpathpathPath — - The path of the property, you can use dot notation to override values in complex types.
  • valuevaluevaluevalueValue — - The value.
addPropertyDeletionOverride(propertyPath: string): voiddef add_property_deletion_override(self, property_path: str) -> Nonepublic void addPropertyDeletionOverride(String propertyPath)public void AddPropertyDeletionOverride(string propertyPath)func AddPropertyDeletionOverride(PropertyPath *string)#

Parameters

  • propertyPathproperty_pathpropertyPathpropertyPathPropertyPath — The path of the property.

addResourceDependency(target: CfnResource, reason?: string): voiddef add_resource_dependency(self, target: CfnResource, reason: typing.Optional[str] = None) -> Nonepublic void addResourceDependency(CfnResource target, String reason)public void AddResourceDependency(CfnResource target, string? reason = null)func AddResourceDependency(Target CfnResource, Reason *string)#
Indicates that this resource depends on another resource and cannot be provisioned unless the other resource has been successfully provisioned.
notes

This can be used for resources across stacks (or nested stack) boundaries and the dependency will automatically be transferred to the relevant scope.

This method only adds dependencies between L1 resources. If you are looking for a generic construct-to-construct dependency mechanism that works for all constructs including L2s, use construct.node.addDependency instead.

Sets the cross-stack reference strength for this resource.

When set, any cross-stack reference to this resource will use the specified strength instead of the global default from the consuming stack's context.

1 parameter

Parameters

  • strengthstrengthstrengthstrengthStrength — - The reference strength to use for this resource.
applyRemovalPolicy(policy?: RemovalPolicy, options?: RemovalPolicyOptions): voiddef apply_removal_policy(self, policy: typing.Optional[RemovalPolicy] = None, options: typing.Optional[RemovalPolicyOptions] = None) -> Nonepublic void applyRemovalPolicy(RemovalPolicy policy, RemovalPolicyOptions options)public void ApplyRemovalPolicy(RemovalPolicy? policy = null, RemovalPolicyOptions? options = null)func ApplyRemovalPolicy(Policy RemovalPolicy, Options RemovalPolicyOptions)#
Sets the deletion policy of the resource based on the removal policy specified.
notes

The Removal Policy controls what happens to this resource when it stops being managed by CloudFormation, either because you've removed it from the CDK application or because you've made a change that requires the resource to be replaced.

The resource can be deleted (RemovalPolicy.DESTROY), or left in your AWS account for data recovery and cleanup later (RemovalPolicy.RETAIN). In some cases, a snapshot can be taken of the resource prior to deletion (RemovalPolicy.SNAPSHOT). A list of resources that support this policy can be found in the following link:

notes · 1 parameter · returns

Use this method instead of instanceof to properly detect Construct instances, even when the construct library is symlinked.

Explanation: in JavaScript, multiple copies of the constructs library on disk are seen as independent, completely different libraries. As a consequence, the class Construct in each copy of the constructs library is seen as a different class, and an instance of one class will not test as instanceof the other class. npm install will not create installations like this, but users may manually symlink construct libraries together or use a monorepo tool: in those cases, multiple copies of the constructs library can be accidentally installed, and instanceof will behave unpredictably. It is safest to avoid using instanceof, and using this type-testing method instead.

Parameters

  • xxxxX — Any object.

Returns: true if x is an object created from a class which extends Construct.

Retrieves an array of resources and stacks this resource depends on.

For resources depended on directly, returns the CfnResource object. For dependencies on other stacks, returns the Stack object. The order of the array is not guaranteed.

overrideLogicalId(newLogicalId: string): voiddef override_logical_id(self, new_logical_id: str) -> Nonepublic void overrideLogicalId(String newLogicalId)public void OverrideLogicalId(string newLogicalId)func OverrideLogicalId(NewLogicalId *string)#
Overrides the auto-generated logical ID with a specific ID.
1 parameter

Parameters

  • newLogicalIdnew_logical_idnewLogicalIdnewLogicalIdNewLogicalId — The new logical ID to use for this stack element.
removeDependency(target: CfnResource): voiddef remove_dependency(self, target: CfnResource) -> Nonepublic void removeDependency(CfnResource target)public void RemoveDependency(CfnResource target)func RemoveDependency(Target CfnResource)deprecated#
Use `removeResourceDependency` instead

This can be used for resources across stacks (including nested stacks) and the dependency will automatically be removed from the relevant scope.

removeResourceDependency(target: CfnResource): voiddef remove_resource_dependency(self, target: CfnResource) -> Nonepublic void removeResourceDependency(CfnResource target)public void RemoveResourceDependency(CfnResource target)func RemoveResourceDependency(Target CfnResource)#
Indicates that this resource no longer depends on another resource.

This can be used for resources across stacks (including nested stacks) and the dependency will automatically be removed from the relevant scope.

Returns: a string representation of this resource

with(...mixins: IMixin[]): IConstructdef with(self, mixins: IMixin) -> IConstructpublic IConstruct with(IMixin mixins)public IConstruct With(IMixin mixins)func With(Mixins IMixin) IConstruct#
Applies one or more mixins to this construct.

Mixins are applied in order. The list of constructs is captured at the start of the call, so constructs added by a mixin will not be visited. Use multiple with() calls if subsequent mixins should apply to added constructs.
