CreateImportTaskRequest

Class

Container for the parameters to the CreateImportTask operation. Starts an import from a data source to CloudWatch Log and creates a managed log group as the destination for the imported data. Currently, CloudTrail Event Data Store is the only supported data source.

The import task must satisfy the following constraints:

• The specified source must be in an ACTIVE state.

• The API caller must have permissions to access the data in the provided source and to perform iam:PassRole on the provided import role which has the same permissions, as described below.

• The provided IAM role must trust the "cloudtrail.amazonaws.com" principal and have the following permissions:

  • cloudtrail:GetEventDataStoreData

  • logs:CreateLogGroup

  • logs:CreateLogStream

  • logs:PutResourcePolicy

  • (If source has an associated AWS KMS Key) kms:Decrypt

  • (If source has an associated AWS KMS Key) kms:GenerateDataKey

  Example IAM policy for provided import role:

  [ { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": "iam:PassRole", "Resource": "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/apiCallerCredentials", "Condition": { "StringLike": { "iam:AssociatedResourceARN": "arn:aws:logs:us-east-1:123456789012:log-group:aws/cloudtrail/f1d45bff-d0e3-4868-b5d9-2eb678aa32fb:*" } } }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "cloudtrail:GetEventDataStoreData" ], "Resource": [ "arn:aws:cloudtrail:us-east-1:123456789012:eventdatastore/f1d45bff-d0e3-4868-b5d9-2eb678aa32fb" ] }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "logs:CreateImportTask", "logs:CreateLogGroup", "logs:CreateLogStream", "logs:PutResourcePolicy" ], "Resource": [ "arn:aws:logs:us-east-1:123456789012:log-group:/aws/cloudtrail/*" ] }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "kms:Decrypt", "kms:GenerateDataKey" ], "Resource": [ "arn:aws:kms:us-east-1:123456789012:key/12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012" ] } ]

• If the import source has a customer managed key, the "cloudtrail.amazonaws.com" principal needs permissions to perform kms:Decrypt and kms:GenerateDataKey.

• There can be no more than 3 active imports per account at a given time.

• The startEventTime must be less than or equal to endEventTime.

• The data being imported must be within the specified source's retention period.
