2022/03/07 - Amazon EC2 Container Service - 6 updated api methods
Changes Amazon ECS UpdateService API now supports additional parameters: loadBalancers, propagateTags, enableECSManagedTags, and serviceRegistries
{'propagateTags': {'NONE'}}
Response {'service': {'propagateTags': {'NONE'}}}
Runs and maintains your desired number of tasks from a specified task definition. If the number of tasks running in a service drops below the desiredCount, Amazon ECS runs another copy of the task in the specified cluster. To update an existing service, see the UpdateService action.
In addition to maintaining the desired count of tasks in your service, you can optionally run your service behind one or more load balancers. The load balancers distribute traffic across the tasks that are associated with the service. For more information, see Service Load Balancing in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
Tasks for services that don't use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state. Tasks for services that use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state and are reported as healthy by the load balancer.
There are two service scheduler strategies available:
REPLICA - The replica scheduling strategy places and maintains your desired number of tasks across your cluster. By default, the service scheduler spreads tasks across Availability Zones. You can use task placement strategies and constraints to customize task placement decisions. For more information, see Service Scheduler Concepts in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
DAEMON - The daemon scheduling strategy deploys exactly one task on each active container instance that meets all of the task placement constraints that you specify in your cluster. The service scheduler also evaluates the task placement constraints for running tasks. It also stops tasks that don't meet the placement constraints. When using this strategy, you don't need to specify a desired number of tasks, a task placement strategy, or use Service Auto Scaling policies. For more information, see Service Scheduler Concepts in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
You can optionally specify a deployment configuration for your service. The deployment is initiated by changing properties. For example, the deployment might be initiated by the task definition or by your desired count of a service. This is done with an UpdateService operation. The default value for a replica service for minimumHealthyPercent is 100%. The default value for a daemon service for minimumHealthyPercent is 0%.
If a service uses the ECS deployment controller, the minimum healthy percent represents a lower limit on the number of tasks in a service that must remain in the RUNNING state during a deployment. Specifically, it represents it as a percentage of your desired number of tasks (rounded up to the nearest integer). This happens when any of your container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. Using this parameter, you can deploy without using additional cluster capacity. For example, if you set your service to have desired number of four tasks and a minimum healthy percent of 50%, the scheduler might stop two existing tasks to free up cluster capacity before starting two new tasks. If they're in the RUNNING state, tasks for services that don't use a load balancer are considered healthy . If they're in the RUNNING state and reported as healthy by the load balancer, tasks for services that do use a load balancer are considered healthy . The default value for minimum healthy percent is 100%.
If a service uses the ECS deployment controller, the maximum percent parameter represents an upper limit on the number of tasks in a service that are allowed in the RUNNING or PENDING state during a deployment. Specifically, it represents it as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded down to the nearest integer). This happens when any of your container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. Using this parameter, you can define the deployment batch size. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a maximum percent value of 200%, the scheduler may start four new tasks before stopping the four older tasks (provided that the cluster resources required to do this are available). The default value for maximum percent is 200%.
If a service uses either the CODE_DEPLOY or EXTERNAL deployment controller types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the minimum healthy percent and maximum percent values are used only to define the lower and upper limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state. This is while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the minimum healthy percent and maximum percent values aren't used. This is the case even if they're currently visible when describing your service.
When creating a service that uses the EXTERNAL deployment controller, you can specify only parameters that aren't controlled at the task set level. The only required parameter is the service name. You control your services using the CreateTaskSet operation. For more information, see Amazon ECS Deployment Types in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
When the service scheduler launches new tasks, it determines task placement in your cluster using the following logic:
Determine which of the container instances in your cluster can support the task definition of your service. For example, they have the required CPU, memory, ports, and container instance attributes.
By default, the service scheduler attempts to balance tasks across Availability Zones in this manner. This is the case even if you can choose a different placement strategy with the placementStrategy parameter.
Sort the valid container instances, giving priority to instances that have the fewest number of running tasks for this service in their respective Availability Zone. For example, if zone A has one running service task and zones B and C each have zero, valid container instances in either zone B or C are considered optimal for placement.
Place the new service task on a valid container instance in an optimal Availability Zone based on the previous steps, favoring container instances with the fewest number of running tasks for this service.

string
The short name or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the cluster that you run your service on. If you do not specify a cluster, the default cluster is assumed.
string
[REQUIRED]
The name of your service. Up to 255 letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, underscores, and hyphens are allowed. Service names must be unique within a cluster, but you can have similarly named services in multiple clusters within a Region or across multiple Regions.
string
The family and revision ( family:revision) or full ARN of the task definition to run in your service. If a revision isn't specified, the latest ACTIVE revision is used.
A task definition must be specified if the service uses either the ECS or CODE_DEPLOY deployment controllers.
list
A load balancer object representing the load balancers to use with your service. For more information, see Service Load Balancing in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
If the service uses the rolling update ( ECS) deployment controller and using either an Application Load Balancer or Network Load Balancer, you must specify one or more target group ARNs to attach to the service. The service-linked role is required for services that use multiple target groups. For more information, see Using service-linked roles for Amazon ECS in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
If the service uses the CODE_DEPLOY deployment controller, the service is required to use either an Application Load Balancer or Network Load Balancer. When creating an CodeDeploy deployment group, you specify two target groups (referred to as a targetGroupPair). During a deployment, CodeDeploy determines which task set in your service has the status PRIMARY, and it associates one target group with it. Then, it also associates the other target group with the replacement task set. The load balancer can also have up to two listeners: a required listener for production traffic and an optional listener that you can use to perform validation tests with Lambda functions before routing production traffic to it.
If you use the CODE_DEPLOY deployment controller, these values can be changed when updating the service.
For Application Load Balancers and Network Load Balancers, this object must contain the load balancer target group ARN, the container name, and the container port to access from the load balancer. The container name must be as it appears in a container definition. The load balancer name parameter must be omitted. When a task from this service is placed on a container instance, the container instance and port combination is registered as a target in the target group that's specified here.
For Classic Load Balancers, this object must contain the load balancer name, the container name , and the container port to access from the load balancer. The container name must be as it appears in a container definition. The target group ARN parameter must be omitted. When a task from this service is placed on a container instance, the container instance is registered with the load balancer that's specified here.
Services with tasks that use the awsvpc network mode (for example, those with the Fargate launch type) only support Application Load Balancers and Network Load Balancers. Classic Load Balancers aren't supported. Also, when you create any target groups for these services, you must choose ip as the target type, not instance. This is because tasks that use the awsvpc network mode are associated with an elastic network interface, not an Amazon EC2 instance.
(dict) --
The load balancer configuration to use with a service or task set.
For specific notes and restrictions regarding the use of load balancers with services and task sets, see the CreateService and CreateTaskSet actions.
When you add, update, or remove a load blaancer configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment with the updated Elastic Load Balancing configuration. This causes tasks to register to and deregister from load balancers.
We recommend that you verify this on a test environment before you update the Elastic Load Balancing configuration.
A service-linked role is required for services that use multiple target groups. For more information, see Service-linked roles in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
targetGroupArn (string) --
The full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Elastic Load Balancing target group or groups associated with a service or task set.
A target group ARN is only specified when using an Application Load Balancer or Network Load Balancer. If you're using a Classic Load Balancer, omit the target group ARN.
For services using the ECS deployment controller, you can specify one or multiple target groups. For more information, see Registering Multiple Target Groups with a Service in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
For services using the CODE_DEPLOY deployment controller, you're required to define two target groups for the load balancer. For more information, see Blue/Green Deployment with CodeDeploy in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
loadBalancerName (string) --
The name of the load balancer to associate with the Amazon ECS service or task set.
A load balancer name is only specified when using a Classic Load Balancer. If you are using an Application Load Balancer or a Network Load Balancer the load balancer name parameter should be omitted.
containerName (string) --
The name of the container (as it appears in a container definition) to associate with the load balancer.
containerPort (integer) --
The port on the container to associate with the load balancer. This port must correspond to a containerPort in the task definition the tasks in the service are using. For tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the container instance they're launched on must allow ingress traffic on the hostPort of the port mapping.
list
The details of the service discovery registry to associate with this service. For more information, see Service discovery.
(dict) --
The details for the service registry.
Each service may be associated with one service registry. Multiple service registries for each service are not supported.
When you add, update, or remove the service registries configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment. New tasks are registered and deregistered to the updated service registry configuration.
registryArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the service registry. The currently supported service registry is Cloud Map. For more information, see CreateService.
port (integer) --
The port value used if your service discovery service specified an SRV record. This field might be used if both the awsvpc network mode and SRV records are used.
containerName (string) --
The container name value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.
containerPort (integer) --
The port value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.
integer
The number of instantiations of the specified task definition to place and keep running on your cluster.
This is required if schedulingStrategy is REPLICA or isn't specified. If schedulingStrategy is DAEMON then this isn't required.
string
An identifier that you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. It must be unique and is case sensitive. Up to 32 ASCII characters are allowed.
string
The infrastructure that you run your service on. For more information, see Amazon ECS launch types in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
The FARGATE launch type runs your tasks on Fargate On-Demand infrastructure.
The EC2 launch type runs your tasks on Amazon EC2 instances registered to your cluster.
The EXTERNAL launch type runs your tasks on your on-premises server or virtual machine (VM) capacity registered to your cluster.
A service can use either a launch type or a capacity provider strategy. If a launchType is specified, the capacityProviderStrategy parameter must be omitted.
list
The capacity provider strategy to use for the service.
If a capacityProviderStrategy is specified, the launchType parameter must be omitted. If no capacityProviderStrategy or launchType is specified, the defaultCapacityProviderStrategy for the cluster is used.
A capacity provider strategy may contain a maximum of 6 capacity providers.
(dict) --
The details of a capacity provider strategy. A capacity provider strategy can be set when using the RunTask or CreateCluster APIs or as the default capacity provider strategy for a cluster with the CreateCluster API.
Only capacity providers that are already associated with a cluster and have an ACTIVE or UPDATING status can be used in a capacity provider strategy. The PutClusterCapacityProviders API is used to associate a capacity provider with a cluster.
If specifying a capacity provider that uses an Auto Scaling group, the capacity provider must already be created. New Auto Scaling group capacity providers can be created with the CreateCapacityProvider API operation.
To use a Fargate capacity provider, specify either the FARGATE or FARGATE_SPOT capacity providers. The Fargate capacity providers are available to all accounts and only need to be associated with a cluster to be used in a capacity provider strategy.
A capacity provider strategy may contain a maximum of 6 capacity providers.
capacityProvider (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The short name of the capacity provider.
weight (integer) --
The weight value designates the relative percentage of the total number of tasks launched that should use the specified capacity provider. The weight value is taken into consideration after the base value, if defined, is satisfied.
If no weight value is specified, the default value of 0 is used. When multiple capacity providers are specified within a capacity provider strategy, at least one of the capacity providers must have a weight value greater than zero and any capacity providers with a weight of 0 can't be used to place tasks. If you specify multiple capacity providers in a strategy that all have a weight of 0, any RunTask or CreateService actions using the capacity provider strategy will fail.
An example scenario for using weights is defining a strategy that contains two capacity providers and both have a weight of 1, then when the base is satisfied, the tasks will be split evenly across the two capacity providers. Using that same logic, if you specify a weight of 1 for capacityProviderA and a weight of 4 for capacityProviderB, then for every one task that's run using capacityProviderA, four tasks would use capacityProviderB.
base (integer) --
The base value designates how many tasks, at a minimum, to run on the specified capacity provider. Only one capacity provider in a capacity provider strategy can have a base defined. If no value is specified, the default value of 0 is used.
string
The platform version that your tasks in the service are running on. A platform version is specified only for tasks using the Fargate launch type. If one isn't specified, the LATEST platform version is used. For more information, see Fargate platform versions in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
string
The name or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM role that allows Amazon ECS to make calls to your load balancer on your behalf. This parameter is only permitted if you are using a load balancer with your service and your task definition doesn't use the awsvpc network mode. If you specify the role parameter, you must also specify a load balancer object with the loadBalancers parameter.
If your specified role has a path other than /, then you must either specify the full role ARN (this is recommended) or prefix the role name with the path. For example, if a role with the name bar has a path of /foo/ then you would specify /foo/bar as the role name. For more information, see Friendly names and paths in the IAM User Guide.
dict
Optional deployment parameters that control how many tasks run during the deployment and the ordering of stopping and starting tasks.
deploymentCircuitBreaker (dict) --
The deployment circuit breaker determines whether a service deployment will fail if the service can't reach a steady state. If deployment circuit breaker is enabled, a service deployment will transition to a failed state and stop launching new tasks. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.
enable (boolean) -- [REQUIRED]
Determines whether to use the deployment circuit breaker logic for the service.
rollback (boolean) -- [REQUIRED]
Determines whether to configure Amazon ECS to roll back the service if a service deployment fails. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.
maximumPercent (integer) --
If a service is using the rolling update ( ECS) deployment type, the maximum percent parameter represents an upper limit on the number of tasks in a service that are allowed in the RUNNING or PENDING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded down to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to define the deployment batch size. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a maximum percent value of 200%, the scheduler may start four new tasks before stopping the four older tasks (provided that the cluster resources required to do this are available). The default value for maximum percent is 200%.
If a service is using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the maximum percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the upper limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the maximum percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.
minimumHealthyPercent (integer) --
If a service is using the rolling update ( ECS) deployment type, the minimum healthy percent represents a lower limit on the number of tasks in a service that must remain in the RUNNING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded up to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to deploy without using additional cluster capacity. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a minimum healthy percent of 50%, the scheduler may stop two existing tasks to free up cluster capacity before starting two new tasks. Tasks for services that do not use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state; tasks for services that do use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state and they're reported as healthy by the load balancer. The default value for minimum healthy percent is 100%.
If a service is using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the lower limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.
list
An array of placement constraint objects to use for tasks in your service. You can specify a maximum of 10 constraints for each task. This limit includes constraints in the task definition and those specified at runtime.
(dict) --
An object representing a constraint on task placement. For more information, see Task Placement Constraints in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
type (string) --
The type of constraint. Use distinctInstance to ensure that each task in a particular group is running on a different container instance. Use memberOf to restrict the selection to a group of valid candidates.
expression (string) --
A cluster query language expression to apply to the constraint. The expression can have a maximum length of 2000 characters. You can't specify an expression if the constraint type is distinctInstance. For more information, see Cluster query language in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
list
The placement strategy objects to use for tasks in your service. You can specify a maximum of 5 strategy rules for each service.
(dict) --
The task placement strategy for a task or service. For more information, see Task Placement Strategies in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
type (string) --
The type of placement strategy. The random placement strategy randomly places tasks on available candidates. The spread placement strategy spreads placement across available candidates evenly based on the field parameter. The binpack strategy places tasks on available candidates that have the least available amount of the resource that's specified with the field parameter. For example, if you binpack on memory, a task is placed on the instance with the least amount of remaining memory but still enough to run the task.
field (string) --
The field to apply the placement strategy against. For the spread placement strategy, valid values are instanceId (or host, which has the same effect), or any platform or custom attribute that's applied to a container instance, such as attribute:ecs.availability-zone. For the binpack placement strategy, valid values are cpu and memory. For the random placement strategy, this field is not used.
dict
The network configuration for the service. This parameter is required for task definitions that use the awsvpc network mode to receive their own elastic network interface, and it isn't supported for other network modes. For more information, see Task networking in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
awsvpcConfiguration (dict) --
The VPC subnets and security groups that are associated with a task.
subnets (list) -- [REQUIRED]
The IDs of the subnets associated with the task or service. There's a limit of 16 subnets that can be specified per AwsVpcConfiguration.
(string) --
securityGroups (list) --
The IDs of the security groups associated with the task or service. If you don't specify a security group, the default security group for the VPC is used. There's a limit of 5 security groups that can be specified per AwsVpcConfiguration.
(string) --
assignPublicIp (string) --
Whether the task's elastic network interface receives a public IP address. The default value is DISABLED.
integer
The period of time, in seconds, that the Amazon ECS service scheduler ignores unhealthy Elastic Load Balancing target health checks after a task has first started. This is only used when your service is configured to use a load balancer. If your service has a load balancer defined and you don't specify a health check grace period value, the default value of 0 is used.
If you do not use an Elastic Load Balancing, we recomend that you use the startPeriod in the task definition healtch check parameters. For more information, see Health check.
If your service's tasks take a while to start and respond to Elastic Load Balancing health checks, you can specify a health check grace period of up to 2,147,483,647 seconds (about 69 years). During that time, the Amazon ECS service scheduler ignores health check status. This grace period can prevent the service scheduler from marking tasks as unhealthy and stopping them before they have time to come up.
string
The scheduling strategy to use for the service. For more information, see Services.
There are two service scheduler strategies available:
REPLICA-The replica scheduling strategy places and maintains the desired number of tasks across your cluster. By default, the service scheduler spreads tasks across Availability Zones. You can use task placement strategies and constraints to customize task placement decisions. This scheduler strategy is required if the service uses the CODE_DEPLOY or EXTERNAL deployment controller types.
DAEMON-The daemon scheduling strategy deploys exactly one task on each active container instance that meets all of the task placement constraints that you specify in your cluster. The service scheduler also evaluates the task placement constraints for running tasks and will stop tasks that don't meet the placement constraints. When you're using this strategy, you don't need to specify a desired number of tasks, a task placement strategy, or use Service Auto Scaling policies.
dict
The deployment controller to use for the service. If no deployment controller is specified, the default value of ECS is used.
type (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The deployment controller type to use.
There are three deployment controller types available:
ECS
The rolling update ( ECS) deployment type involves replacing the current running version of the container with the latest version. The number of containers Amazon ECS adds or removes from the service during a rolling update is controlled by adjusting the minimum and maximum number of healthy tasks allowed during a service deployment, as specified in the DeploymentConfiguration.
CODE_DEPLOY
The blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) deployment type uses the blue/green deployment model powered by CodeDeploy, which allows you to verify a new deployment of a service before sending production traffic to it.
EXTERNAL
The external ( EXTERNAL) deployment type enables you to use any third-party deployment controller for full control over the deployment process for an Amazon ECS service.
list
The metadata that you apply to the service to help you categorize and organize them. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define. When a service is deleted, the tags are deleted as well.
The following basic restrictions apply to tags:
Maximum number of tags per resource - 50
For each resource, each tag key must be unique, and each tag key can have only one value.
Maximum key length - 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8
Maximum value length - 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8
If your tagging schema is used across multiple services and resources, remember that other services may have restrictions on allowed characters. Generally allowed characters are: letters, numbers, and spaces representable in UTF-8, and the following characters: + - = . _ : / @.
Tag keys and values are case-sensitive.
Do not use aws:, AWS:, or any upper or lowercase combination of such as a prefix for either keys or values as it is reserved for Amazon Web Services use. You cannot edit or delete tag keys or values with this prefix. Tags with this prefix do not count against your tags per resource limit.

key (string) --
One part of a key-value pair that make up a tag. A key is a general label that acts like a category for more specific tag values.
value (string) --
The optional part of a key-value pair that make up a tag. A value acts as a descriptor within a tag category (key).
boolean
Specifies whether to turn on Amazon ECS managed tags for the tasks within the service. For more information, see Tagging Your Amazon ECS Resources in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
string
Specifies whether to propagate the tags from the task definition or the service to the tasks in the service. If no value is specified, the tags aren't propagated. Tags can only be propagated to the tasks within the service during service creation. To add tags to a task after service creation or task creation, use the TagResource API action.
boolean
Determines whether the execute command functionality is enabled for the service. If true, this enables execute command functionality on all containers in the service tasks.

Response Structure
(dict) --
service (dict) --
The full description of your service following the create call.
A service will return either a capacityProviderStrategy or launchType parameter, but not both, depending where one was specified when it was created.
If a service is using the ECS deployment controller, the deploymentController and taskSets parameters will not be returned.
if the service uses the CODE_DEPLOY deployment controller, the deploymentController, taskSets and deployments parameters will be returned, however the deployments parameter will be an empty list.
serviceArn (string) --
The ARN that identifies the service. The ARN contains the arn:aws:ecs namespace, followed by the Region of the service, the Amazon Web Services account ID of the service owner, the service namespace, and then the service name. For example, arn:aws:ecs:region:012345678910:service/my-service.
serviceName (string) --
The name of your service. Up to 255 letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, underscores, and hyphens are allowed. Service names must be unique within a cluster. However, you can have similarly named services in multiple clusters within a Region or across multiple Regions.
clusterArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the cluster that hosts the service.
loadBalancers (list) --
A list of Elastic Load Balancing load balancer objects. It contains the load balancer name, the container name, and the container port to access from the load balancer. The container name is as it appears in a container definition.
(dict) --
The load balancer configuration to use with a service or task set.
For specific notes and restrictions regarding the use of load balancers with services and task sets, see the CreateService and CreateTaskSet actions.
When you add, update, or remove a load blaancer configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment with the updated Elastic Load Balancing configuration. This causes tasks to register to and deregister from load balancers.
We recommend that you verify this on a test environment before you update the Elastic Load Balancing configuration.
A service-linked role is required for services that use multiple target groups. For more information, see Service-linked roles in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
targetGroupArn (string) --
The full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Elastic Load Balancing target group or groups associated with a service or task set.
A target group ARN is only specified when using an Application Load Balancer or Network Load Balancer. If you're using a Classic Load Balancer, omit the target group ARN.
For services using the ECS deployment controller, you can specify one or multiple target groups. For more information, see Registering Multiple Target Groups with a Service in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
For services using the CODE_DEPLOY deployment controller, you're required to define two target groups for the load balancer. For more information, see Blue/Green Deployment with CodeDeploy in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
loadBalancerName (string) --
The name of the load balancer to associate with the Amazon ECS service or task set.
A load balancer name is only specified when using a Classic Load Balancer. If you are using an Application Load Balancer or a Network Load Balancer the load balancer name parameter should be omitted.
containerName (string) --
The name of the container (as it appears in a container definition) to associate with the load balancer.
containerPort (integer) --
The port on the container to associate with the load balancer. This port must correspond to a containerPort in the task definition the tasks in the service are using. For tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the container instance they're launched on must allow ingress traffic on the hostPort of the port mapping.
serviceRegistries (list) --
The details for the service discovery registries to assign to this service. For more information, see Service Discovery.
(dict) --
The details for the service registry.
Each service may be associated with one service registry. Multiple service registries for each service are not supported.
When you add, update, or remove the service registries configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment. New tasks are registered and deregistered to the updated service registry configuration.
registryArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the service registry. The currently supported service registry is Cloud Map. For more information, see CreateService.
port (integer) --
The port value used if your service discovery service specified an SRV record. This field might be used if both the awsvpc network mode and SRV records are used.
containerName (string) --
The container name value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.
containerPort (integer) --
The port value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.
status (string) --
The status of the service. The valid values are ACTIVE, DRAINING, or INACTIVE.
desiredCount (integer) --
The desired number of instantiations of the task definition to keep running on the service. This value is specified when the service is created with CreateService, and it can be modified with UpdateService.
runningCount (integer) --
The number of tasks in the cluster that are in the RUNNING state.
pendingCount (integer) --
The number of tasks in the cluster that are in the PENDING state.
launchType (string) --
The launch type the service is using. When using the DescribeServices API, this field is omitted if the service was created using a capacity provider strategy.
capacityProviderStrategy (list) --
The capacity provider strategy the service uses. When using the DescribeServices API, this field is omitted if the service was created using a launch type.
(dict) --
The details of a capacity provider strategy. A capacity provider strategy can be set when using the RunTask or CreateCluster APIs or as the default capacity provider strategy for a cluster with the CreateCluster API.
Only capacity providers that are already associated with a cluster and have an ACTIVE or UPDATING status can be used in a capacity provider strategy. The PutClusterCapacityProviders API is used to associate a capacity provider with a cluster.
If specifying a capacity provider that uses an Auto Scaling group, the capacity provider must already be created. New Auto Scaling group capacity providers can be created with the CreateCapacityProvider API operation.
To use a Fargate capacity provider, specify either the FARGATE or FARGATE_SPOT capacity providers. The Fargate capacity providers are available to all accounts and only need to be associated with a cluster to be used in a capacity provider strategy.
A capacity provider strategy may contain a maximum of 6 capacity providers.
capacityProvider (string) --
The short name of the capacity provider.
weight (integer) --
The weight value designates the relative percentage of the total number of tasks launched that should use the specified capacity provider. The weight value is taken into consideration after the base value, if defined, is satisfied.
If no weight value is specified, the default value of 0 is used. When multiple capacity providers are specified within a capacity provider strategy, at least one of the capacity providers must have a weight value greater than zero and any capacity providers with a weight of 0 can't be used to place tasks. If you specify multiple capacity providers in a strategy that all have a weight of 0, any RunTask or CreateService actions using the capacity provider strategy will fail.
An example scenario for using weights is defining a strategy that contains two capacity providers and both have a weight of 1, then when the base is satisfied, the tasks will be split evenly across the two capacity providers. Using that same logic, if you specify a weight of 1 for capacityProviderA and a weight of 4 for capacityProviderB, then for every one task that's run using capacityProviderA, four tasks would use capacityProviderB.
base (integer) --
The base value designates how many tasks, at a minimum, to run on the specified capacity provider. Only one capacity provider in a capacity provider strategy can have a base defined. If no value is specified, the default value of 0 is used.
platformVersion (string) --
The platform version to run your service on. A platform version is only specified for tasks that are hosted on Fargate. If one isn't specified, the LATEST platform version is used. For more information, see Fargate Platform Versions in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
platformFamily (string) --
The operating system that your tasks in the service run on. A platform family is specified only for tasks using the Fargate launch type.
All tasks that run as part of this service must use the same platformFamily value as the service (for example, LINUX).
taskDefinition (string) --
The task definition to use for tasks in the service. This value is specified when the service is created with CreateService, and it can be modified with UpdateService.
deploymentConfiguration (dict) --
Optional deployment parameters that control how many tasks run during the deployment and the ordering of stopping and starting tasks.
deploymentCircuitBreaker (dict) --
The deployment circuit breaker determines whether a service deployment will fail if the service can't reach a steady state. If deployment circuit breaker is enabled, a service deployment will transition to a failed state and stop launching new tasks. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.
enable (boolean) --
Determines whether to use the deployment circuit breaker logic for the service.
rollback (boolean) --
Determines whether to configure Amazon ECS to roll back the service if a service deployment fails. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.
maximumPercent (integer) --
If a service is using the rolling update ( ECS) deployment type, the maximum percent parameter represents an upper limit on the number of tasks in a service that are allowed in the RUNNING or PENDING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded down to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to define the deployment batch size. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a maximum percent value of 200%, the scheduler may start four new tasks before stopping the four older tasks (provided that the cluster resources required to do this are available). The default value for maximum percent is 200%.
If a service is using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the maximum percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the upper limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the maximum percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.
minimumHealthyPercent (integer) --
If a service is using the rolling update ( ECS) deployment type, the minimum healthy percent represents a lower limit on the number of tasks in a service that must remain in the RUNNING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded up to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to deploy without using additional cluster capacity. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a minimum healthy percent of 50%, the scheduler may stop two existing tasks to free up cluster capacity before starting two new tasks. Tasks for services that do not use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state; tasks for services that do use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state and they're reported as healthy by the load balancer. The default value for minimum healthy percent is 100%.
If a service is using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the lower limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.

assignPublicIp (string) --
Whether the task's elastic network interface receives a public IP address. The default value is DISABLED.
rolloutState (string) --
The rollout state of the deployment. When a service deployment is started, it begins in an IN_PROGRESS state. When the service reaches a steady state, the deployment transitions to a COMPLETED state. If the service fails to reach a steady state and circuit breaker is enabled, the deployment transitions to a FAILED state. A deployment in FAILED state doesn't launch any new tasks. For more information, see DeploymentCircuitBreaker.
rolloutStateReason (string) --
A description of the rollout state of a deployment.
roleArn (string) --
The ARN of the IAM role that's associated with the service. It allows the Amazon ECS container agent to register container instances with an Elastic Load Balancing load balancer.

The placement constraints for the tasks in the service.
(dict) --
An object representing a constraint on task placement. For more information, see Task Placement Constraints in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
type (string) --
The type of constraint. Use distinctInstance to ensure that each task in a particular group is running on a different container instance. Use memberOf to restrict the selection to a group of valid candidates.
expression (string) --
A cluster query language expression to apply to the constraint. The expression can have a maximum length of 2000 characters. You can't specify an expression if the constraint type is distinctInstance. For more information, see Cluster query language in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.

The placement strategy that determines how tasks for the service are placed.
(dict) --
The task placement strategy for a task or service. For more information, see Task Placement Strategies in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
type (string) --
The type of placement strategy. The random placement strategy randomly places tasks on available candidates. The spread placement strategy spreads placement across available candidates evenly based on the field parameter. The binpack strategy places tasks on available candidates that have the least available amount of the resource that's specified with the field parameter. For example, if you binpack on memory, a task is placed on the instance with the least amount of remaining memory but still enough to run the task.
field (string) --
The field to apply the placement strategy against. For the spread placement strategy, valid values are instanceId (or host, which has the same effect), or any platform or custom attribute that's applied to a container instance, such as attribute:ecs.availability-zone.

Whether the task's elastic network interface receives a public IP address. The default value is DISABLED.
healthCheckGracePeriodSeconds (integer) --
The period of time, in seconds, that the Amazon ECS service scheduler ignores unhealthy Elastic Load Balancing target health checks after a task has first started.
schedulingStrategy (string) --
The scheduling strategy to use for the service. For more information, see Services.
There are two service scheduler strategies available.
REPLICA-The replica scheduling strategy places and maintains the desired number of tasks across your cluster. By default, the service scheduler spreads tasks across Availability Zones. You can use task placement strategies and constraints to customize task placement decisions.
DAEMON-The daemon scheduling strategy deploys exactly one task on each active container instance. This task meets all of the task placement constraints that you specify in your cluster. The service scheduler also evaluates the task placement constraints for running tasks. It stop tasks that don't meet the placement constraints.
deploymentController (dict) --
The deployment controller type the service is using. When using the DescribeServices API, this field is omitted if the service uses the ECS deployment controller type.
type (string) --
The deployment controller type to use.
There are three deployment controller types available:
ECS
The rolling update ( ECS) deployment type involves replacing the current running version of the container with the latest version. The number of containers Amazon ECS adds or removes from the service during a rolling update is controlled by adjusting the minimum and maximum number of healthy tasks allowed during a service deployment, as specified in the DeploymentConfiguration.
CODE_DEPLOY
The blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) deployment type uses the blue/green deployment model powered by CodeDeploy, which allows you to verify a new deployment of a service before sending production traffic to it.
EXTERNAL
The external ( EXTERNAL) deployment type enables you to use any third-party deployment controller for full control over the deployment process for an Amazon ECS service.
tags (list) --
The metadata that you apply to the service to help you categorize and organize them. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value. You define bot the key and value.
The following basic restrictions apply to tags:
Maximum number of tags per resource - 50
For each resource, each tag key must be unique, and each tag key can have only one value.
Maximum key length - 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8
Maximum value length - 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8
If your tagging schema is used across multiple services and resources, remember that other services may have restrictions on allowed characters. Generally allowed characters are: letters, numbers, and spaces representable in UTF-8, and the following characters: + - = . _ : / @.
Tag keys and values are case-sensitive.
Do not use aws:, AWS:, or any upper or lowercase combination of such as a prefix for either keys or values as it is reserved for Amazon Web Services use. You cannot edit or delete tag keys or values with this prefix. Tags with this prefix do not count against your tags per resource limit.

Response Structure
(dict) --
service (dict) --
The full description of the deleted service.
serviceArn (string) --
The ARN that identifies the service. The ARN contains the arn:aws:ecs namespace, followed by the Region of the service, the Amazon Web Services account ID of the service owner, the service namespace, and then the service name. For example, arn:aws:ecs:region:012345678910:service/my-service.
serviceName (string) --
The name of your service. Up to 255 letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, underscores, and hyphens are allowed. Service names must be unique within a cluster. However, you can have similarly named services in multiple clusters within a Region or across multiple Regions.
clusterArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the cluster that hosts the service.
loadBalancers (list) --
A list of Elastic Load Balancing load balancer objects. It contains the load balancer name, the container name, and the container port to access from the load balancer. The container name is as it appears in a container definition.
(dict) --
The load balancer configuration to use with a service or task set.
For specific notes and restrictions regarding the use of load balancers with services and task sets, see the CreateService and CreateTaskSet actions.
When you add, update, or remove a load blaancer configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment with the updated Elastic Load Balancing configuration. This causes tasks to register to and deregister from load balancers.
We recommend that you verify this on a test environment before you update the Elastic Load Balancing configuration.
A service-linked role is required for services that use multiple target groups. For more information, see Service-linked roles in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
targetGroupArn (string) --
The full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Elastic Load Balancing target group or groups associated with a service or task set.
A target group ARN is only specified when using an Application Load Balancer or Network Load Balancer. If you're using a Classic Load Balancer, omit the target group ARN.
For services using the ECS deployment controller, you can specify one or multiple target groups. For more information, see Registering Multiple Target Groups with a Service in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
For services using the CODE_DEPLOY deployment controller, you're required to define two target groups for the load balancer. For more information, see Blue/Green Deployment with CodeDeploy in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
loadBalancerName (string) --
The name of the load balancer to associate with the Amazon ECS service or task set.
A load balancer name is only specified when using a Classic Load Balancer. If you are using an Application Load Balancer or a Network Load Balancer the load balancer name parameter should be omitted.
containerName (string) --
The name of the container (as it appears in a container definition) to associate with the load balancer.
containerPort (integer) --
The port on the container to associate with the load balancer. This port must correspond to a containerPort in the task definition the tasks in the service are using. For tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the container instance they're launched on must allow ingress traffic on the hostPort of the port mapping.
serviceRegistries (list) --
The details for the service discovery registries to assign to this service. For more information, see Service Discovery.
(dict) --
The details for the service registry.
Each service may be associated with one service registry. Multiple service registries for each service are not supported.
When you add, update, or remove the service registries configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment. New tasks are registered and deregistered to the updated service registry configuration.
registryArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the service registry. The currently supported service registry is Cloud Map. For more information, see CreateService.
port (integer) --
The port value used if your service discovery service specified an SRV record. This field might be used if both the awsvpc network mode and SRV records are used.
containerName (string) --
The container name value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.
containerPort (integer) --
The port value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.
status (string) --
The status of the service. The valid values are ACTIVE, DRAINING, or INACTIVE.
desiredCount (integer) --
The desired number of instantiations of the task definition to keep running on the service. This value is specified when the service is created with CreateService, and it can be modified with UpdateService.
runningCount (integer) --
The number of tasks in the cluster that are in the RUNNING state.
pendingCount (integer) --
The number of tasks in the cluster that are in the PENDING state.
launchType (string) --
The launch type the service is using. When using the DescribeServices API, this field is omitted if the service was created using a capacity provider strategy.
capacityProviderStrategy (list) --
The capacity provider strategy the service uses. When using the DescribeServices API, this field is omitted if the service was created using a launch type.
(dict) --
The details of a capacity provider strategy. A capacity provider strategy can be set when using the RunTask or CreateCluster APIs or as the default capacity provider strategy for a cluster with the CreateCluster API.
Only capacity providers that are already associated with a cluster and have an ACTIVE or UPDATING status can be used in a capacity provider strategy. The PutClusterCapacityProviders API is used to associate a capacity provider with a cluster.
If specifying a capacity provider that uses an Auto Scaling group, the capacity provider must already be created. New Auto Scaling group capacity providers can be created with the CreateCapacityProvider API operation.
To use a Fargate capacity provider, specify either the FARGATE or FARGATE_SPOT capacity providers. The Fargate capacity providers are available to all accounts and only need to be associated with a cluster to be used in a capacity provider strategy.
A capacity provider strategy may contain a maximum of 6 capacity providers.
capacityProvider (string) --
The short name of the capacity provider.
weight (integer) --
The weight value designates the relative percentage of the total number of tasks launched that should use the specified capacity provider. The weight value is taken into consideration after the base value, if defined, is satisfied.
If no weight value is specified, the default value of 0 is used. When multiple capacity providers are specified within a capacity provider strategy, at least one of the capacity providers must have a weight value greater than zero and any capacity providers with a weight of 0 can't be used to place tasks. If you specify multiple capacity providers in a strategy that all have a weight of 0, any RunTask or CreateService actions using the capacity provider strategy will fail.
An example scenario for using weights is defining a strategy that contains two capacity providers and both have a weight of 1, then when the base is satisfied, the tasks will be split evenly across the two capacity providers. Using that same logic, if you specify a weight of 1 for capacityProviderA and a weight of 4 for capacityProviderB, then for every one task that's run using capacityProviderA, four tasks would use capacityProviderB.
base (integer) --
The base value designates how many tasks, at a minimum, to run on the specified capacity provider. Only one capacity provider in a capacity provider strategy can have a base defined. If no value is specified, the default value of 0 is used.
platformVersion (string) --
The platform version to run your service on. A platform version is only specified for tasks that are hosted on Fargate. If one isn't specified, the LATEST platform version is used. For more information, see Fargate Platform Versions in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
platformFamily (string) --
The operating system that your tasks in the service run on. A platform family is specified only for tasks using the Fargate launch type.
All tasks that run as part of this service must use the same platformFamily value as the service (for example, LINUX).
taskDefinition (string) --
The task definition to use for tasks in the service. This value is specified when the service is created with CreateService, and it can be modified with UpdateService.
deploymentConfiguration (dict) --
Optional deployment parameters that control how many tasks run during the deployment and the ordering of stopping and starting tasks.
deploymentCircuitBreaker (dict) --
The deployment circuit breaker determines whether a service deployment will fail if the service can't reach a steady state. If deployment circuit breaker is enabled, a service deployment will transition to a failed state and stop launching new tasks. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.
enable (boolean) --
Determines whether to use the deployment circuit breaker logic for the service.
rollback (boolean) --
Determines whether to configure Amazon ECS to roll back the service if a service deployment fails. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.
maximumPercent (integer) --
If a service is using the rolling update ( ECS) deployment type, the maximum percent parameter represents an upper limit on the number of tasks in a service that are allowed in the RUNNING or PENDING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded down to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to define the deployment batch size. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a maximum percent value of 200%, the scheduler may start four new tasks before stopping the four older tasks (provided that the cluster resources required to do this are available). The default value for maximum percent is 200%.
If a service is using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the maximum percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the upper limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the maximum percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.
minimumHealthyPercent (integer) --
If a service is using the rolling update ( ECS) deployment type, the minimum healthy percent represents a lower limit on the number of tasks in a service that must remain in the RUNNING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded up to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to deploy without using additional cluster capacity. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a minimum healthy percent of 50%, the scheduler may stop two existing tasks to free up cluster capacity before starting two new tasks. Tasks for services that do not use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state; tasks for services that do use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state and they're reported as healthy by the load balancer. The default value for minimum healthy percent is 100%.
If a service is using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the lower limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.
taskSets (list) --
Information about a set of Amazon ECS tasks in either an CodeDeploy or an EXTERNAL deployment. An Amazon ECS task set includes details such as the desired number of tasks, how many tasks are running, and whether the task set serves production traffic.

externalId (string) --
The external ID associated with the task set.
If an CodeDeploy deployment created a task set, the externalId parameter contains the CodeDeploy deployment ID.
If a task set is created for an external deployment and is associated with a service discovery registry, the externalId parameter contains the ECS_TASK_SET_EXTERNAL_ID Cloud Map attribute.
status (string) --
The status of the task set. The following describes each state.
PRIMARY
The task set is serving production traffic.
ACTIVE

DRAINING
The tasks in the task set are being stopped, and their corresponding targets are being deregistered from their target group.
taskDefinition (string) --
The task definition that the task set is using.
computedDesiredCount (integer) --
The computed desired count for the task set. This is calculated by multiplying the service's desiredCount by the task set's scale percentage. The result is always rounded up. For example, if the computed desired count is 1.2, it rounds up to 2 tasks.
pendingCount (integer) --
The number of tasks in the task set that are in the PENDING status during a deployment. A task in the PENDING state is preparing to enter the RUNNING state. A task set enters the PENDING status when it launches for the first time or when it's restarted after being in the STOPPED state.
runningCount (integer) --

capacityProviderStrategy (list) --
The capacity provider strategy that are associated with the task set.
(dict) --
The details of a capacity provider strategy. A capacity provider strategy can be set when using the RunTask or CreateCluster APIs or as the default capacity provider strategy for a cluster with the CreateCluster API.
Only capacity providers that are already associated with a cluster and have an ACTIVE or UPDATING status can be used in a capacity provider strategy. The PutClusterCapacityProviders API is used to associate a capacity provider with a cluster.
If specifying a capacity provider that uses an Auto Scaling group, the capacity provider must already be created. New Auto Scaling group capacity providers can be created with the CreateCapacityProvider API operation.
To use a Fargate capacity provider, specify either the FARGATE or FARGATE_SPOT capacity providers. The Fargate capacity providers are available to all accounts and only need to be associated with a cluster to be used in a capacity provider strategy.
A capacity provider strategy may contain a maximum of 6 capacity providers.
capacityProvider (string) --
The short name of the capacity provider.
weight (integer) --
The weight value designates the relative percentage of the total number of tasks launched that should use the specified capacity provider. The weight value is taken into consideration after the base value, if defined, is satisfied.
If no weight value is specified, the default value of 0 is used. When multiple capacity providers are specified within a capacity provider strategy, at least one of the capacity providers must have a weight value greater than zero and any capacity providers with a weight of 0 can't be used to place tasks. If you specify multiple capacity providers in a strategy that all have a weight of 0, any RunTask or CreateService actions using the capacity provider strategy will fail.
An example scenario for using weights is defining a strategy that contains two capacity providers and both have a weight of 1, then when the base is satisfied, the tasks will be split evenly across the two capacity providers. Using that same logic, if you specify a weight of 1 for capacityProviderA and a weight of 4 for capacityProviderB, then for every one task that's run using capacityProviderA, four tasks would use capacityProviderB.
base (integer) --

(dict) --
The load balancer configuration to use with a service or task set.
For specific notes and restrictions regarding the use of load balancers with services and task sets, see the CreateService and CreateTaskSet actions.
When you add, update, or remove a load blaancer configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment with the updated Elastic Load Balancing configuration. This causes tasks to register to and deregister from load balancers.
We recommend that you verify this on a test environment before you update the Elastic Load Balancing configuration.
A service-linked role is required for services that use multiple target groups. For more information, see Service-linked roles in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
targetGroupArn (string) --
The full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Elastic Load Balancing target group or groups associated with a service or task set.
A target group ARN is only specified when using an Application Load Balancer or Network Load Balancer. If you're using a Classic Load Balancer, omit the target group ARN.
For services using the ECS deployment controller, you can specify one or multiple target groups. For more information, see Registering Multiple Target Groups with a Service in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
For services using the CODE_DEPLOY deployment controller, you're required to define two target groups for the load balancer. For more information, see Blue/Green Deployment with CodeDeploy in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
loadBalancerName (string) --
The name of the load balancer to associate with the Amazon ECS service or task set.
A load balancer name is only specified when using a Classic Load Balancer. If you are using an Application Load Balancer or a Network Load Balancer the load balancer name parameter should be omitted.
containerName (string) --
The name of the container (as it appears in a container definition) to associate with the load balancer.
containerPort (integer) --
The port on the container to associate with the load balancer. This port must correspond to a containerPort in the task definition the tasks in the service are using. For tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the container instance they're launched on must allow ingress traffic on the hostPort of the port mapping.
serviceRegistries (list) --
The details for the service discovery registries to assign to this task set. For more information, see Service discovery.
(dict) --
The details for the service registry.

The number of tasks in the deployment that are in the RUNNING status.
failedTasks (integer) --
The number of consecutively failed tasks in the deployment. A task is considered a failure if the service scheduler can't launch the task, the task doesn't transition to a RUNNING state, or if it fails any of its defined health checks and is stopped.
createdAt (datetime) --
The Unix timestamp for the time when the service deployment was created.
updatedAt (datetime) --
The Unix timestamp for the time when the service deployment was last updated.
capacityProviderStrategy (list) --
The capacity provider strategy that the deployment is using.
(dict) --
The details of a capacity provider strategy. A capacity provider strategy can be set when using the RunTask or CreateCluster APIs or as the default capacity provider strategy for a cluster with the CreateCluster API.
Only capacity providers that are already associated with a cluster and have an ACTIVE or UPDATING status can be used in a capacity provider strategy. The PutClusterCapacityProviders API is used to associate a capacity provider with a cluster.
If specifying a capacity provider that uses an Auto Scaling group, the capacity provider must already be created. New Auto Scaling group capacity providers can be created with the CreateCapacityProvider API operation.
To use a Fargate capacity provider, specify either the FARGATE or FARGATE_SPOT capacity providers. The Fargate capacity providers are available to all accounts and only need to be associated with a cluster to be used in a capacity provider strategy.
A capacity provider strategy may contain a maximum of 6 capacity providers.
capacityProvider (string) --
The short name of the capacity provider.
weight (integer) --
The weight value designates the relative percentage of the total number of tasks launched that should use the specified capacity provider. The weight value is taken into consideration after the base value, if defined, is satisfied.
If no weight value is specified, the default value of 0 is used. When multiple capacity providers are specified within a capacity provider strategy, at least one of the capacity providers must have a weight value greater than zero and any capacity providers with a weight of 0 can't be used to place tasks. If you specify multiple capacity providers in a strategy that all have a weight of 0, any RunTask or CreateService actions using the capacity provider strategy will fail.
An example scenario for using weights is defining a strategy that contains two capacity providers and both have a weight of 1, then when the base is satisfied, the tasks will be split evenly across the two capacity providers. Using that same logic, if you specify a weight of 1 for capacityProviderA and a weight of 4 for capacityProviderB, then for every one task that's run using capacityProviderA, four tasks would use capacityProviderB.
base (integer) --
The base value designates how many tasks, at a minimum, to run on the specified capacity provider. Only one capacity provider in a capacity provider strategy can have a base defined. If no value is specified, the default value of 0 is used.

Whether the task's elastic network interface receives a public IP address. The default value is DISABLED.
rolloutState (string) --
The rollout state of the deployment. When a service deployment is started, it begins in an IN_PROGRESS state. When the service reaches a steady state, the deployment transitions to a COMPLETED state. If the service fails to reach a steady state and circuit breaker is enabled, the deployment transitions to a FAILED state. A deployment in FAILED state doesn't launch any new tasks. For more information, see DeploymentCircuitBreaker.
rolloutStateReason (string) --

The spread placement strategy spreads placement across available candidates evenly based on the field parameter. The binpack strategy places tasks on available candidates that have the least available amount of the resource that's specified with the field parameter. For example, if you binpack on memory, a task is placed on the instance with the least amount of remaining memory but still enough to run the task.
field (string) --
The field to apply the placement strategy against. For the spread placement strategy, valid values are instanceId (or host, which has the same effect), or any platform or custom attribute that's applied to a container instance, such as attribute:ecs.availability-zone.

REPLICA-The replica scheduling strategy places and maintains the desired number of tasks across your cluster. By default, the service scheduler spreads tasks across Availability Zones. You can use task placement strategies and constraints to customize task placement decisions.
DAEMON-The daemon scheduling strategy deploys exactly one task on each active container instance. This task meets all of the task placement constraints that you specify in your cluster. The service scheduler also evaluates the task placement constraints for running tasks. It stop tasks that don't meet the placement constraints.
deploymentController (dict) --
The deployment controller type the service is using. When using the DescribeServices API, this field is omitted if the service uses the ECS deployment controller type.
type (string) --
The deployment controller type to use.
There are three deployment controller types available:
ECS
The rolling update ( ECS) deployment type involves replacing the current running version of the container with the latest version. The number of containers Amazon ECS adds or removes from the service during a rolling update is controlled by adjusting the minimum and maximum number of healthy tasks allowed during a service deployment, as specified in the DeploymentConfiguration.
CODE_DEPLOY
The blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) deployment type uses the blue/green deployment model powered by CodeDeploy, which allows you to verify a new deployment of a service before sending production traffic to it.
EXTERNAL
The external ( EXTERNAL) deployment type enables you to use any third-party deployment controller for full control over the deployment process for an Amazon ECS service.
tags (list) --
The metadata that you apply to the service to help you categorize and organize them. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value. You define bot the key and value.
The following basic restrictions apply to tags:
Maximum number of tags per resource - 50
For each resource, each tag key must be unique, and each tag key can have only one value.
Maximum key length - 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8
Maximum value length - 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8
If your tagging schema is used across multiple services and resources, remember that other services may have restrictions on allowed characters. Generally allowed characters are: letters, numbers, and spaces representable in UTF-8, and the following characters: + - = . _ : / @.
Tag keys and values are case-sensitive.
Do not use aws:, AWS:, or any upper or lowercase combination of such as a prefix for either keys or values as it is reserved for Amazon Web Services use. You cannot edit or delete tag keys or values with this prefix. Tags with this prefix do not count against your tags per resource limit.

The list of services described.
(dict) --
Details on a service within a cluster
serviceArn (string) --
The ARN that identifies the service. The ARN contains the arn:aws:ecs namespace, followed by the Region of the service, the Amazon Web Services account ID of the service owner, the service namespace, and then the service name. For example, arn:aws:ecs:region:012345678910:service/my-service.
serviceName (string) --
The name of your service. Up to 255 letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, underscores, and hyphens are allowed. Service names must be unique within a cluster. However, you can have similarly named services in multiple clusters within a Region or across multiple Regions.
clusterArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the cluster that hosts the service.
loadBalancers (list) --
A list of Elastic Load Balancing load balancer objects. It contains the load balancer name, the container name, and the container port to access from the load balancer. The container name is as it appears in a container definition.
(dict) --
The load balancer configuration to use with a service or task set.
For specific notes and restrictions regarding the use of load balancers with services and task sets, see the CreateService and CreateTaskSet actions.
When you add, update, or remove a load blaancer configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment with the updated Elastic Load Balancing configuration. This causes tasks to register to and deregister from load balancers.
We recommend that you verify this on a test environment before you update the Elastic Load Balancing configuration.
A service-linked role is required for services that use multiple target groups. For more information, see Service-linked roles in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
targetGroupArn (string) --
The full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Elastic Load Balancing target group or groups associated with a service or task set.
A target group ARN is only specified when using an Application Load Balancer or Network Load Balancer. If you're using a Classic Load Balancer, omit the target group ARN.
For services using the ECS deployment controller, you can specify one or multiple target groups. For more information, see Registering Multiple Target Groups with a Service in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
For services using the CODE_DEPLOY deployment controller, you're required to define two target groups for the load balancer. For more information, see Blue/Green Deployment with CodeDeploy in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
loadBalancerName (string) --
The name of the load balancer to associate with the Amazon ECS service or task set.
A load balancer name is only specified when using a Classic Load Balancer. If you are using an Application Load Balancer or a Network Load Balancer the load balancer name parameter should be omitted.
containerName (string) --
The name of the container (as it appears in a container definition) to associate with the load balancer.
containerPort (integer) --
The port on the container to associate with the load balancer. This port must correspond to a containerPort in the task definition the tasks in the service are using. For tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the container instance they're launched on must allow ingress traffic on the hostPort of the port mapping.
serviceRegistries (list) --
The details for the service discovery registries to assign to this service. For more information, see Service Discovery.
(dict) --
The details for the service registry.
Each service may be associated with one service registry. Multiple service registries for each service are not supported.
When you add, update, or remove the service registries configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment. New tasks are registered and deregistered to the updated service registry configuration.
registryArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the service registry. The currently supported service registry is Cloud Map. For more information, see CreateService.
port (integer) --
The port value used if your service discovery service specified an SRV record. This field might be used if both the awsvpc network mode and SRV records are used.
containerName (string) --
The container name value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.
containerPort (integer) --
The port value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.
status (string) --
The status of the service. The valid values are ACTIVE, DRAINING, or INACTIVE.
desiredCount (integer) --
The desired number of instantiations of the task definition to keep running on the service. This value is specified when the service is created with CreateService, and it can be modified with UpdateService.
runningCount (integer) --
The number of tasks in the cluster that are in the RUNNING state.
pendingCount (integer) --
The number of tasks in the cluster that are in the PENDING state.
launchType (string) --
The launch type the service is using. When using the DescribeServices API, this field is omitted if the service was created using a capacity provider strategy.
capacityProviderStrategy (list) --
The capacity provider strategy the service uses. When using the DescribeServices API, this field is omitted if the service was created using a launch type.
(dict) --
The details of a capacity provider strategy. A capacity provider strategy can be set when using the RunTask or CreateCluster APIs or as the default capacity provider strategy for a cluster with the CreateCluster API.
Only capacity providers that are already associated with a cluster and have an ACTIVE or UPDATING status can be used in a capacity provider strategy. The PutClusterCapacityProviders API is used to associate a capacity provider with a cluster.
If specifying a capacity provider that uses an Auto Scaling group, the capacity provider must already be created. New Auto Scaling group capacity providers can be created with the CreateCapacityProvider API operation.
To use a Fargate capacity provider, specify either the FARGATE or FARGATE_SPOT capacity providers. The Fargate capacity providers are available to all accounts and only need to be associated with a cluster to be used in a capacity provider strategy.
A capacity provider strategy may contain a maximum of 6 capacity providers.
capacityProvider (string) --
The short name of the capacity provider.
weight (integer) --
The weight value designates the relative percentage of the total number of tasks launched that should use the specified capacity provider. The weight value is taken into consideration after the base value, if defined, is satisfied.
If no weight value is specified, the default value of 0 is used. When multiple capacity providers are specified within a capacity provider strategy, at least one of the capacity providers must have a weight value greater than zero and any capacity providers with a weight of 0 can't be used to place tasks. If you specify multiple capacity providers in a strategy that all have a weight of 0, any RunTask or CreateService actions using the capacity provider strategy will fail.
An example scenario for using weights is defining a strategy that contains two capacity providers and both have a weight of 1, then when the base is satisfied, the tasks will be split evenly across the two capacity providers. Using that same logic, if you specify a weight of 1 for capacityProviderA and a weight of 4 for capacityProviderB, then for every one task that's run using capacityProviderA, four tasks would use capacityProviderB.
base (integer) --
The base value designates how many tasks, at a minimum, to run on the specified capacity provider. Only one capacity provider in a capacity provider strategy can have a base defined. If no value is specified, the default value of 0 is used.
platformVersion (string) --
The platform version to run your service on. A platform version is only specified for tasks that are hosted on Fargate. If one isn't specified, the LATEST platform version is used. For more information, see Fargate Platform Versions in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
platformFamily (string) --
The operating system that your tasks in the service run on. A platform family is specified only for tasks using the Fargate launch type.
All tasks that run as part of this service must use the same platformFamily value as the service (for example, LINUX).
taskDefinition (string) --
The task definition to use for tasks in the service. This value is specified when the service is created with CreateService, and it can be modified with UpdateService.
deploymentConfiguration (dict) --
Optional deployment parameters that control how many tasks run during the deployment and the ordering of stopping and starting tasks.
deploymentCircuitBreaker (dict) --
The deployment circuit breaker determines whether a service deployment will fail if the service can't reach a steady state. If deployment circuit breaker is enabled, a service deployment will transition to a failed state and stop launching new tasks. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.
enable (boolean) --
Determines whether to use the deployment circuit breaker logic for the service.
rollback (boolean) --
Determines whether to configure Amazon ECS to roll back the service if a service deployment fails. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.
maximumPercent (integer) --
If a service is using the rolling update ( ECS) deployment type, the maximum percent parameter represents an upper limit on the number of tasks in a service that are allowed in the RUNNING or PENDING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded down to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to define the deployment batch size. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a maximum percent value of 200%, the scheduler may start four new tasks before stopping the four older tasks (provided that the cluster resources required to do this are available). The default value for maximum percent is 200%.
If a service is using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the maximum percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the upper limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the maximum percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.
minimumHealthyPercent (integer) --
If a service is using the rolling update ( ECS) deployment type, the minimum healthy percent represents a lower limit on the number of tasks in a service that must remain in the RUNNING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded up to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to deploy without using additional cluster capacity. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a minimum healthy percent of 50%, the scheduler may stop two existing tasks to free up cluster capacity before starting two new tasks. Tasks for services that do not use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state; tasks for services that do use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state and they're reported as healthy by the load balancer. The default value for minimum healthy percent is 100%.
If a service is using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the lower limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.

DAEMON-The daemon scheduling strategy deploys exactly one task on each active container instance. This task meets all of the task placement constraints that you specify in your cluster. The service scheduler also evaluates the task placement constraints for running tasks. It stop tasks that don't meet the placement constraints.
deploymentController (dict) --
The deployment controller type the service is using. When using the DescribeServices API, this field is omitted if the service uses the ECS deployment controller type.
type (string) --

Do not use aws:, AWS:, or any upper or lowercase combination of such as a prefix for either keys or values as it is reserved for Amazon Web Services use. You cannot edit or delete tag keys or values with this prefix. Tags with this prefix do not count against your tags per resource limit.
(dict) --
The metadata that you apply to a resource to help you categorize and organize them. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value. You define them.
The following basic restrictions apply to tags:
Maximum number of tags per resource - 50
For each resource, each tag key must be unique, and each tag key can have only one value.
Maximum key length - 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8
Maximum value length - 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8

{'propagateTags': {'NONE'}}
Starts a new task using the specified task definition.
You can allow Amazon ECS to place tasks for you, or you can customize how Amazon ECS places tasks using placement constraints and placement strategies. For more information, see Scheduling Tasks in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
Alternatively, you can use StartTask to use your own scheduler or place tasks manually on specific container instances.
The Amazon ECS API follows an eventual consistency model. This is because of the distributed nature of the system supporting the API. This means that the result of an API command you run that affects your Amazon ECS resources might not be immediately visible to all subsequent commands you run. Keep this in mind when you carry out an API command that immediately follows a previous API command.
To manage eventual consistency, you can do the following:
Confirm the state of the resource before you run a command to modify it. Run the DescribeTasks command using an exponential backoff algorithm to ensure that you allow enough time for the previous command to propagate through the system. To do this, run the DescribeTasks command repeatedly, starting with a couple of seconds of wait time and increasing gradually up to five minutes of wait time.
Add wait time between subsequent commands, even if the DescribeTasks command returns an accurate response. Apply an exponential backoff algorithm starting with a couple of seconds of wait time, and increase gradually up to about five minutes of wait time.

list
The capacity provider strategy to use for the task.
If a capacityProviderStrategy is specified, the launchType parameter must be omitted. If no capacityProviderStrategy or launchType is specified, the defaultCapacityProviderStrategy for the cluster is used.
When you use cluster auto scaling, you must specify capacityProviderStrategy and not launchType.
A capacity provider strategy may contain a maximum of 6 capacity providers.
(dict) --
The details of a capacity provider strategy. A capacity provider strategy can be set when using the RunTask or CreateCluster APIs or as the default capacity provider strategy for a cluster with the CreateCluster API.
Only capacity providers that are already associated with a cluster and have an ACTIVE or UPDATING status can be used in a capacity provider strategy. The PutClusterCapacityProviders API is used to associate a capacity provider with a cluster.
If specifying a capacity provider that uses an Auto Scaling group, the capacity provider must already be created. New Auto Scaling group capacity providers can be created with the CreateCapacityProvider API operation.
To use a Fargate capacity provider, specify either the FARGATE or FARGATE_SPOT capacity providers. The Fargate capacity providers are available to all accounts and only need to be associated with a cluster to be used in a capacity provider strategy.
A capacity provider strategy may contain a maximum of 6 capacity providers.
capacityProvider (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The short name of the capacity provider.
weight (integer) --
The weight value designates the relative percentage of the total number of tasks launched that should use the specified capacity provider. The weight value is taken into consideration after the base value, if defined, is satisfied.
If no weight value is specified, the default value of 0 is used. When multiple capacity providers are specified within a capacity provider strategy, at least one of the capacity providers must have a weight value greater than zero and any capacity providers with a weight of 0 can't be used to place tasks. If you specify multiple capacity providers in a strategy that all have a weight of 0, any RunTask or CreateService actions using the capacity provider strategy will fail.
An example scenario for using weights is defining a strategy that contains two capacity providers and both have a weight of 1, then when the base is satisfied, the tasks will be split evenly across the two capacity providers. Using that same logic, if you specify a weight of 1 for capacityProviderA and a weight of 4 for capacityProviderB, then for every one task that's run using capacityProviderA, four tasks would use capacityProviderB.
base (integer) --
The base value designates how many tasks, at a minimum, to run on the specified capacity provider. Only one capacity provider in a capacity provider strategy can have a base defined. If no value is specified, the default value of 0 is used.
string

boolean
Specifies whether to use Amazon ECS managed tags for the task. For more information, see Tagging Your Amazon ECS Resources in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
boolean
Determines whether to use the execute command functionality for the containers in this task. If true, this enables execute command functionality on all containers in the task.
string
The name of the task group to associate with the task. The default value is the family name of the task definition (for example, family:my-family-name).
string
The infrastructure to run your standalone task on. For more information, see Amazon ECS launch types in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
The FARGATE launch type runs your tasks on Fargate On-Demand infrastructure.
The EC2 launch type runs your tasks on Amazon EC2 instances registered to your cluster.
The EXTERNAL launch type runs your tasks on your on-premises server or virtual machine (VM) capacity registered to your cluster.
A task can use either a launch type or a capacity provider strategy. If a launchType is specified, the capacityProviderStrategy parameter must be omitted.
When you use cluster auto scaling, you must specify capacityProviderStrategy and not launchType.
dict
The network configuration for the task. This parameter is required for task definitions that use the awsvpc network mode to receive their own elastic network interface, and it isn't supported for other network modes. For more information, see Task networking in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
awsvpcConfiguration (dict) --
The VPC subnets and security groups that are associated with a task.

containerOverrides (list) --
One or more container overrides that are sent to a task.
(dict) --
The overrides that are sent to a container. An empty container override can be passed in. An example of an empty container override is {"containerOverrides": [ ] }. If a non-empty container override is specified, the name parameter must be included.
name (string) --
The name of the container that receives the override. This parameter is required if any override is specified.

A list of files containing the environment variables to pass to a container. You can specify up to ten environment files. The file must have a .env file extension. Each line in an environment file should contain an environment variable in VARIABLE=VALUE format. Lines beginning with # are treated as comments and are ignored. For more information about the environment variable file syntax, see Declare default environment variables in file.
If there are environment variables specified using the environment parameter in a container definition, they take precedence over the variables contained within an environment file. If multiple environment files are specified that contain the same variable, they're processed from the top down. We recommend that you use unique variable names. For more information, see Specifying environment variables in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
This parameter is only supported for tasks hosted on Fargate using the following platform versions:
Linux platform version 1.4.0 or later.

For more information, see Working with GPUs on Amazon ECS or Working with Amazon Elastic Inference on Amazon ECS in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide
value (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The value for the specified resource type.
If the GPU type is used, the value is the number of physical GPUs the Amazon ECS container agent reserves for the container. The number of GPUs that's reserved for all containers in a task can't exceed the number of available GPUs on the container instance that the task is launched on.
If the InferenceAccelerator type is used, the value matches the deviceName for an InferenceAccelerator specified in a task definition.
type (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The type of resource to assign to a container. The supported values are GPU or InferenceAccelerator.
cpu (string) --

sizeInGiB (integer) -- [REQUIRED]
The total amount, in GiB, of ephemeral storage to set for the task. The minimum supported value is 21 GiB and the maximum supported value is 200 GiB.
list
An array of placement constraint objects to use for the task. You can specify up to 10 constraints for each task (including constraints in the task definition and those specified at runtime).
(dict) --
An object representing a constraint on task placement. For more information, see Task Placement Constraints in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
type (string) --
The type of constraint. Use distinctInstance to ensure that each task in a particular group is running on a different container instance. Use memberOf to restrict the selection to a group of valid candidates.
expression (string) --
A cluster query language expression to apply to the constraint. The expression can have a maximum length of 2000 characters. You can't specify an expression if the constraint type is distinctInstance. For more information, see Cluster query language in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.

(dict) --
The task placement strategy for a task or service. For more information, see Task Placement Strategies in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
type (string) --
The type of placement strategy. The random placement strategy randomly places tasks on available candidates. The spread placement strategy spreads placement across available candidates evenly based on the field parameter. The binpack strategy places tasks on available candidates that have the least available amount of the resource that's specified with the field parameter. For example, if you binpack on memory, a task is placed on the instance with the least amount of remaining memory but still enough to run the task.
field (string) --
The field to apply the placement strategy against. For the spread placement strategy, valid values are instanceId (or host, which has the same effect), or any platform or custom attribute that's applied to a container instance, such as attribute:ecs.availability-zone. For the binpack placement strategy, valid values are cpu and memory. For the random placement strategy, this field is not used.
string
The platform version the task uses. A platform version is only specified for tasks hosted on Fargate. If one isn't specified, the LATEST platform version is used. For more information, see Fargate platform versions in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
string
Specifies whether to propagate the tags from the task definition to the task. If no value is specified, the tags aren't propagated. Tags can only be propagated to the task during task creation. To add tags to a task after task creation, use the TagResource API action.
string
The reference ID to use for the task. The reference ID can have a maximum length of 1024 characters.
string
An optional tag specified when a task is started. For example, if you automatically trigger a task to run a batch process job, you could apply a unique identifier for that job to your task with the startedBy parameter. You can then identify which tasks belong to that job by filtering the results of a ListTasks call with the startedBy value. Up to 36 letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed.
If a task is started by an Amazon ECS service, then the startedBy parameter contains the deployment ID of the service that starts it.
list
The metadata that you apply to the task to help you categorize and organize them. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define.
The following basic restrictions apply to tags:
Maximum number of tags per resource - 50
For each resource, each tag key must be unique, and each tag key can have only one value.
Maximum key length - 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8
Maximum value length - 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8
If your tagging schema is used across multiple services and resources, remember that other services may have restrictions on allowed characters. Generally allowed characters are: letters, numbers, and spaces representable in UTF-8, and the following characters: + - = . _ : / @.
Tag keys and values are case-sensitive.
Do not use aws:, AWS:, or any upper or lowercase combination of such as a prefix for either keys or values as it is reserved for Amazon Web Services use. You cannot edit or delete tag keys or values with this prefix. Tags with this prefix do not count against your tags per resource limit.

Response {'service': {'propagateTags': {'NONE'}}}
Modifies the parameters of a service.
For services using the rolling update ( ECS) you can update the desired count, the deployment configuration, the network configuration, load balancers, service registries, enable ECS managed tags option, propagate tags option, task placement constraints and strategies, and the task definition. When you update any of these parameters, Amazon ECS starts new tasks with the new configuration.
For services using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) deployment controller, only the desired count, deployment configuration, task placement constraints and strategies, enable ECS managed tags option, and propagate tags can be updated using this API. If the network configuration, platform version, task definition, or load balancer need to be updated, create a new CodeDeploy deployment. For more information, see CreateDeployment in the CodeDeploy API Reference.
For services using an external deployment controller, you can update only the desired count, task placement constraints and strategies, health check grace period, enable ECS managed tags option, and propagate tags option, using this API. If the launch type, load balancer, network configuration, platform version, or task definition need to be updated, create a new task set For more information, see CreateTaskSet.
You can add to or subtract from the number of instantiations of a task definition in a service by specifying the cluster that the service is running in and a new desiredCount parameter.
If you have updated the Docker image of your application, you can create a new task definition with that image and deploy it to your service. The service scheduler uses the minimum healthy percent and maximum percent parameters (in the service's deployment configuration) to determine the deployment strategy.
You can also update the deployment configuration of a service. When a deployment is triggered by updating the task definition of a service, the service scheduler uses the deployment configuration parameters, minimumHealthyPercent and maximumPercent, to determine the deployment strategy.
If minimumHealthyPercent is below 100%, the scheduler can ignore desiredCount temporarily during a deployment. For example, if desiredCount is four tasks, a minimum of 50% allows the scheduler to stop two existing tasks before starting two new tasks. Tasks for services that don't use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state. Tasks for services that use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state and are reported as healthy by the load balancer.
The maximumPercent parameter represents an upper limit on the number of running tasks during a deployment. You can use it to define the deployment batch size. For example, if desiredCount is four tasks, a maximum of 200% starts four new tasks before stopping the four older tasks (provided that the cluster resources required to do this are available).
When UpdateService stops a task during a deployment, the equivalent of docker stop is issued to the containers running in the task. This results in a SIGTERM and a 30-second timeout. After this, SIGKILL is sent and the containers are forcibly stopped. If the container handles the SIGTERM gracefully and exits within 30 seconds from receiving it, no SIGKILL is sent.
When the service scheduler launches new tasks, it determines task placement in your cluster with the following logic.
Determine which of the container instances in your cluster can support your service's task definition. For example, they have the required CPU, memory, ports, and container instance attributes.
By default, the service scheduler attempts to balance tasks across Availability Zones in this manner even though you can choose a different placement strategy.
Sort the valid container instances by the fewest number of running tasks for this service in the same Availability Zone as the instance. For example, if zone A has one running service task and zones B and C each have zero, valid container instances in either zone B or C are considered optimal for placement.
Place the new service task on a valid container instance in an optimal Availability Zone (based on the previous steps), favoring container instances with the fewest number of running tasks for this service.
When the service scheduler stops running tasks, it attempts to maintain balance across the Availability Zones in your cluster using the following logic:
Sort the container instances by the largest number of running tasks for this service in the same Availability Zone as the instance. For example, if zone A has one running service task and zones B and C each have two, container instances in either zone B or C are considered optimal for termination.
Stop the task on a container instance in an optimal Availability Zone (based on the previous steps), favoring container instances with the largest number of running tasks for this service.

string
The short name or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the cluster that your service runs on. If you do not specify a cluster, the default cluster is assumed.
string
[REQUIRED]
The name of the service to update.
integer
The number of instantiations of the task to place and keep running in your service.
string
The family and revision ( family:revision) or full ARN of the task definition to run in your service. If a revision is not specified, the latest ACTIVE revision is used. If you modify the task definition with UpdateService, Amazon ECS spawns a task with the new version of the task definition and then stops an old task after the new version is running.
list
The capacity provider strategy to update the service to use.
if the service uses the default capacity provider strategy for the cluster, the service can be updated to use one or more capacity providers as opposed to the default capacity provider strategy. However, when a service is using a capacity provider strategy that's not the default capacity provider strategy, the service can't be updated to use the cluster's default capacity provider strategy.
A capacity provider strategy consists of one or more capacity providers along with the base and weight to assign to them. A capacity provider must be associated with the cluster to be used in a capacity provider strategy. The PutClusterCapacityProviders API is used to associate a capacity provider with a cluster. Only capacity providers with an ACTIVE or UPDATING status can be used.
If specifying a capacity provider that uses an Auto Scaling group, the capacity provider must already be created. New capacity providers can be created with the CreateCapacityProvider API operation.
To use a Fargate capacity provider, specify either the FARGATE or FARGATE_SPOT capacity providers. The Fargate capacity providers are available to all accounts and only need to be associated with a cluster to be used.
The PutClusterCapacityProviders API operation is used to update the list of available capacity providers for a cluster after the cluster is created.
(dict) --
The details of a capacity provider strategy. A capacity provider strategy can be set when using the RunTask or CreateCluster APIs or as the default capacity provider strategy for a cluster with the CreateCluster API.
Only capacity providers that are already associated with a cluster and have an ACTIVE or UPDATING status can be used in a capacity provider strategy. The PutClusterCapacityProviders API is used to associate a capacity provider with a cluster.
If specifying a capacity provider that uses an Auto Scaling group, the capacity provider must already be created. New Auto Scaling group capacity providers can be created with the CreateCapacityProvider API operation.
To use a Fargate capacity provider, specify either the FARGATE or FARGATE_SPOT capacity providers. The Fargate capacity providers are available to all accounts and only need to be associated with a cluster to be used in a capacity provider strategy.
A capacity provider strategy may contain a maximum of 6 capacity providers.
capacityProvider (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The short name of the capacity provider.
weight (integer) --
The weight value designates the relative percentage of the total number of tasks launched that should use the specified capacity provider. The weight value is taken into consideration after the base value, if defined, is satisfied.
If no weight value is specified, the default value of 0 is used. When multiple capacity providers are specified within a capacity provider strategy, at least one of the capacity providers must have a weight value greater than zero and any capacity providers with a weight of 0 can't be used to place tasks. If you specify multiple capacity providers in a strategy that all have a weight of 0, any RunTask or CreateService actions using the capacity provider strategy will fail.
An example scenario for using weights is defining a strategy that contains two capacity providers and both have a weight of 1, then when the base is satisfied, the tasks will be split evenly across the two capacity providers. Using that same logic, if you specify a weight of 1 for capacityProviderA and a weight of 4 for capacityProviderB, then for every one task that's run using capacityProviderA, four tasks would use capacityProviderB.
base (integer) --
The base value designates how many tasks, at a minimum, to run on the specified capacity provider. Only one capacity provider in a capacity provider strategy can have a base defined. If no value is specified, the default value of 0 is used.
dict
Optional deployment parameters that control how many tasks run during the deployment and the ordering of stopping and starting tasks.
deploymentCircuitBreaker (dict) --
The deployment circuit breaker determines whether a service deployment will fail if the service can't reach a steady state. If deployment circuit breaker is enabled, a service deployment will transition to a failed state and stop launching new tasks. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.
enable (boolean) -- [REQUIRED]
Determines whether to use the deployment circuit breaker logic for the service.
rollback (boolean) -- [REQUIRED]
Determines whether to configure Amazon ECS to roll back the service if a service deployment fails. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.
maximumPercent (integer) --
If a service is using the rolling update ( ECS) deployment type, the maximum percent parameter represents an upper limit on the number of tasks in a service that are allowed in the RUNNING or PENDING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded down to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to define the deployment batch size. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a maximum percent value of 200%, the scheduler may start four new tasks before stopping the four older tasks (provided that the cluster resources required to do this are available). The default value for maximum percent is 200%.
If a service is using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the maximum percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the upper limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the maximum percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.
minimumHealthyPercent (integer) --
If a service is using the rolling update ( ECS) deployment type, the minimum healthy percent represents a lower limit on the number of tasks in a service that must remain in the RUNNING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded up to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to deploy without using additional cluster capacity. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a minimum healthy percent of 50%, the scheduler may stop two existing tasks to free up cluster capacity before starting two new tasks. Tasks for services that do not use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state; tasks for services that do use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state and they're reported as healthy by the load balancer. The default value for minimum healthy percent is 100%.
If a service is using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the lower limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.
dict
An object representing the network configuration for the service.
awsvpcConfiguration (dict) --
The VPC subnets and security groups that are associated with a task.
subnets (list) -- [REQUIRED]
The IDs of the subnets associated with the task or service. There's a limit of 16 subnets that can be specified per AwsVpcConfiguration.
(string) --
securityGroups (list) --
The IDs of the security groups associated with the task or service. If you don't specify a security group, the default security group for the VPC is used. There's a limit of 5 security groups that can be specified per AwsVpcConfiguration.
(string) --
assignPublicIp (string) --
Whether the task's elastic network interface receives a public IP address. The default value is DISABLED.
list
An array of task placement constraint objects to update the service to use. If no value is specified, the existing placement constraints for the service will remain unchanged. If this value is specified, it will override any existing placement constraints defined for the service. To remove all existing placement constraints, specify an empty array.
You can specify a maximum of 10 constraints for each task. This limit includes constraints in the task definition and those specified at runtime.
(dict) --
An object representing a constraint on task placement. For more information, see Task Placement Constraints in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
type (string) --
The type of constraint. Use distinctInstance to ensure that each task in a particular group is running on a different container instance. Use memberOf to restrict the selection to a group of valid candidates.
expression (string) --
A cluster query language expression to apply to the constraint. The expression can have a maximum length of 2000 characters. You can't specify an expression if the constraint type is distinctInstance. For more information, see Cluster query language in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
list
The task placement strategy objects to update the service to use. If no value is specified, the existing placement strategy for the service will remain unchanged. If this value is specified, it will override the existing placement strategy defined for the service. To remove an existing placement strategy, specify an empty object.
You can specify a maximum of five strategy rules for each service.
(dict) --
The task placement strategy for a task or service. For more information, see Task Placement Strategies in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
type (string) --
The type of placement strategy. The random placement strategy randomly places tasks on available candidates. The spread placement strategy spreads placement across available candidates evenly based on the field parameter. The binpack strategy places tasks on available candidates that have the least available amount of the resource that's specified with the field parameter. For example, if you binpack on memory, a task is placed on the instance with the least amount of remaining memory but still enough to run the task.
field (string) --
The field to apply the placement strategy against. For the spread placement strategy, valid values are instanceId (or host, which has the same effect), or any platform or custom attribute that's applied to a container instance, such as attribute:ecs.availability-zone. For the binpack placement strategy, valid values are cpu and memory. For the random placement strategy, this field is not used.
string
The platform version that your tasks in the service run on. A platform version is only specified for tasks using the Fargate launch type. If a platform version is not specified, the LATEST platform version is used. For more information, see Fargate Platform Versions in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
boolean
Determines whether to force a new deployment of the service. By default, deployments aren't forced. You can use this option to start a new deployment with no service definition changes. For example, you can update a service's tasks to use a newer Docker image with the same image/tag combination ( my_image:latest) or to roll Fargate tasks onto a newer platform version.
integer
The period of time, in seconds, that the Amazon ECS service scheduler ignores unhealthy Elastic Load Balancing target health checks after a task has first started. This is only valid if your service is configured to use a load balancer. If your service's tasks take a while to start and respond to Elastic Load Balancing health checks, you can specify a health check grace period of up to 2,147,483,647 seconds. During that time, the Amazon ECS service scheduler ignores the Elastic Load Balancing health check status. This grace period can prevent the ECS service scheduler from marking tasks as unhealthy and stopping them before they have time to come up.
boolean
If true, this enables execute command functionality on all task containers.
If you do not want to override the value that was set when the service was created, you can set this to null when performing this action.
boolean
Determines whether to turn on Amazon ECS managed tags for the tasks in the service. For more information, see Tagging Your Amazon ECS Resources in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
Only tasks launched after the update will reflect the update. To update the tags on all tasks, set forceNewDeployment to true, so that Amazon ECS starts new tasks with the updated tags.
list
A list of Elastic Load Balancing load balancer objects. It contains the load balancer name, the container name, and the container port to access from the load balancer. The container name is as it appears in a container definition.
When you add, update, or remove a load balancer configuration, Amazon ECS starts new tasks with the updated Elastic Load Balancing configuration, and then stops the old tasks when the new tasks are running.
You can remove existing loadBalancers by passing an empty list.
(dict) --
The load balancer configuration to use with a service or task set.
For specific notes and restrictions regarding the use of load balancers with services and task sets, see the CreateService and CreateTaskSet actions.
When you add, update, or remove a load blaancer configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment with the updated Elastic Load Balancing configuration. This causes tasks to register to and deregister from load balancers.
We recommend that you verify this on a test environment before you update the Elastic Load Balancing configuration.
A service-linked role is required for services that use multiple target groups. For more information, see Service-linked roles in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
targetGroupArn (string) --
The full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Elastic Load Balancing target group or groups associated with a service or task set.
A target group ARN is only specified when using an Application Load Balancer or Network Load Balancer. If you're using a Classic Load Balancer, omit the target group ARN.
For services using the ECS deployment controller, you can specify one or multiple target groups. For more information, see Registering Multiple Target Groups with a Service in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
For services using the CODE_DEPLOY deployment controller, you're required to define two target groups for the load balancer. For more information, see Blue/Green Deployment with CodeDeploy in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
loadBalancerName (string) --
The name of the load balancer to associate with the Amazon ECS service or task set.
A load balancer name is only specified when using a Classic Load Balancer. If you are using an Application Load Balancer or a Network Load Balancer the load balancer name parameter should be omitted.
containerName (string) --
The name of the container (as it appears in a container definition) to associate with the load balancer.
containerPort (integer) --
The port on the container to associate with the load balancer. This port must correspond to a containerPort in the task definition the tasks in the service are using. For tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the container instance they're launched on must allow ingress traffic on the hostPort of the port mapping.
string
Determines whether to propagate the tags from the task definition or the service to the task. If no value is specified, the tags aren't propagated.
Only tasks launched after the update will reflect the update. To update the tags on all tasks, set forceNewDeployment to true, so that Amazon ECS starts new tasks with the updated tags.
list
The details for the service discovery registries to assign to this service. For more information, see Service Discovery.
When you add, update, or remove the service registries configuration, Amazon ECS starts new tasks with the updated service registries configuration, and then stops the old tasks when the new tasks are running.
You can remove existing serviceRegistries by passing an empty list.
(dict) --
The details for the service registry.
Each service may be associated with one service registry. Multiple service registries for each service are not supported.
When you add, update, or remove the service registries configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment. New tasks are registered and deregistered to the updated service registry configuration.
registryArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the service registry. The currently supported service registry is Cloud Map. For more information, see CreateService.
port (integer) --
The port value used if your service discovery service specified an SRV record. This field might be used if both the awsvpc network mode and SRV records are used.
containerName (string) --
The container name value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.
containerPort (integer) --
The port value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.

The name of the container (as it appears in a container definition) to associate with the load balancer.
containerPort (integer) --
The port on the container to associate with the load balancer. This port must correspond to a containerPort in the task definition the tasks in the service are using. For tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the container instance they're launched on must allow ingress traffic on the hostPort of the port mapping.
serviceRegistries (list) --
The details for the service discovery registries to assign to this service. For more information, see Service Discovery.
(dict) --
The details for the service registry.
Each service may be associated with one service registry. Multiple service registries for each service are not supported.
When you add, update, or remove the service registries configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment. New tasks are registered and deregistered to the updated service registry configuration.
registryArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the service registry. The currently supported service registry is Cloud Map. For more information, see CreateService.
port (integer) --
The port value used if your service discovery service specified an SRV record. This field might be used if both the awsvpc network mode and SRV records are used.
containerName (string) --
The container name value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.
containerPort (integer) --
The port value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.
status (string) --
The status of the service. The valid values are ACTIVE, DRAINING, or INACTIVE.
desiredCount (integer) --
The desired number of instantiations of the task definition to keep running on the service. This value is specified when the service is created with CreateService, and it can be modified with UpdateService.
runningCount (integer) --
The number of tasks in the cluster that are in the RUNNING state.
pendingCount (integer) --
The number of tasks in the cluster that are in the PENDING state.
launchType (string) --
The launch type the service is using. When using the DescribeServices API, this field is omitted if the service was created using a capacity provider strategy.
capacityProviderStrategy (list) --
The capacity provider strategy the service uses. When using the DescribeServices API, this field is omitted if the service was created using a launch type.
(dict) --
The details of a capacity provider strategy. A capacity provider strategy can be set when using the RunTask or CreateCluster APIs or as the default capacity provider strategy for a cluster with the CreateCluster API.
Only capacity providers that are already associated with a cluster and have an ACTIVE or UPDATING status can be used in a capacity provider strategy. The PutClusterCapacityProviders API is used to associate a capacity provider with a cluster.
If specifying a capacity provider that uses an Auto Scaling group, the capacity provider must already be created. New Auto Scaling group capacity providers can be created with the CreateCapacityProvider API operation.
To use a Fargate capacity provider, specify either the FARGATE or FARGATE_SPOT capacity providers. The Fargate capacity providers are available to all accounts and only need to be associated with a cluster to be used in a capacity provider strategy.
A capacity provider strategy may contain a maximum of 6 capacity providers.
capacityProvider (string) --
The short name of the capacity provider.
weight (integer) --
The weight value designates the relative percentage of the total number of tasks launched that should use the specified capacity provider. The weight value is taken into consideration after the base value, if defined, is satisfied.
If no weight value is specified, the default value of 0 is used. When multiple capacity providers are specified within a capacity provider strategy, at least one of the capacity providers must have a weight value greater than zero and any capacity providers with a weight of 0 can't be used to place tasks. If you specify multiple capacity providers in a strategy that all have a weight of 0, any RunTask or CreateService actions using the capacity provider strategy will fail.
An example scenario for using weights is defining a strategy that contains two capacity providers and both have a weight of 1, then when the base is satisfied, the tasks will be split evenly across the two capacity providers. Using that same logic, if you specify a weight of 1 for capacityProviderA and a weight of 4 for capacityProviderB, then for every one task that's run using capacityProviderA, four tasks would use capacityProviderB.
base (integer) --
The base value designates how many tasks, at a minimum, to run on the specified capacity provider. Only one capacity provider in a capacity provider strategy can have a base defined. If no value is specified, the default value of 0 is used.
platformVersion (string) --
The platform version to run your service on. A platform version is only specified for tasks that are hosted on Fargate. If one isn't specified, the LATEST platform version is used. For more information, see Fargate Platform Versions in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
platformFamily (string) --
The operating system that your tasks in the service run on. A platform family is specified only for tasks using the Fargate launch type.
All tasks that run as part of this service must use the same platformFamily value as the service (for example, LINUX).
taskDefinition (string) --
The task definition to use for tasks in the service. This value is specified when the service is created with CreateService, and it can be modified with UpdateService.
deploymentConfiguration (dict) --
Optional deployment parameters that control how many tasks run during the deployment and the ordering of stopping and starting tasks.
deploymentCircuitBreaker (dict) --
The deployment circuit breaker determines whether a service deployment will fail if the service can't reach a steady state. If deployment circuit breaker is enabled, a service deployment will transition to a failed state and stop launching new tasks. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.
enable (boolean) --
Determines whether to use the deployment circuit breaker logic for the service.
rollback (boolean) --
Determines whether to configure Amazon ECS to roll back the service if a service deployment fails. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.
maximumPercent (integer) --
If a service is using the rolling update ( ECS) deployment type, the maximum percent parameter represents an upper limit on the number of tasks in a service that are allowed in the RUNNING or PENDING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded down to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to define the deployment batch size. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a maximum percent value of 200%, the scheduler may start four new tasks before stopping the four older tasks (provided that the cluster resources required to do this are available). The default value for maximum percent is 200%.
If a service is using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the maximum percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the upper limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the maximum percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.
minimumHealthyPercent (integer) --
If a service is using the rolling update ( ECS) deployment type, the minimum healthy percent represents a lower limit on the number of tasks in a service that must remain in the RUNNING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded up to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to deploy without using additional cluster capacity. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a minimum healthy percent of 50%, the scheduler may stop two existing tasks to free up cluster capacity before starting two new tasks. Tasks for services that do not use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state; tasks for services that do use a load balancer are considered healthy if they're in the RUNNING state and they're reported as healthy by the load balancer. The default value for minimum healthy percent is 100%.
If a service is using the blue/green ( CODE_DEPLOY) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the lower limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.
taskSets (list) --
Information about a set of Amazon ECS tasks in either an CodeDeploy or an EXTERNAL deployment. An Amazon ECS task set includes details such as the desired number of tasks, how many tasks are running, and whether the task set serves production traffic.

externalId (string) --
The external ID associated with the task set.
If an CodeDeploy deployment created a task set, the externalId parameter contains the CodeDeploy deployment ID.
If a task set is created for an external deployment and is associated with a service discovery registry, the externalId parameter contains the ECS_TASK_SET_EXTERNAL_ID Cloud Map attribute.
status (string) --
The status of the task set. The following describes each state.
PRIMARY
The task set is serving production traffic.
ACTIVE
The task set isn't serving production traffic.
DRAINING
The tasks in the task set are being stopped, and their corresponding targets are being deregistered from their target group.
taskDefinition (string) --
The task definition that the task set is using.
computedDesiredCount (integer) --
The computed desired count for the task set. This is calculated by multiplying the service's desiredCount by the task set's scale percentage. The result is always rounded up. For example, if the computed desired count is 1.2, it rounds up to 2 tasks.
pendingCount (integer) --
The number of tasks in the task set that are in the PENDING status during a deployment. A task in the PENDING state is preparing to enter the RUNNING state. A task set enters the PENDING status when it launches for the first time or when it's restarted after being in the STOPPED state.
runningCount (integer) --
The number of tasks in the task set that are in the RUNNING status during a deployment. A task in the RUNNING state is running and ready for use.
createdAt (datetime) --
The Unix timestamp for the time when the task set was created.
updatedAt (datetime) --
The Unix timestamp for the time when the task set was last updated.
launchType (string) --
The launch type the tasks in the task set are using. For more information, see Amazon ECS launch types in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
capacityProviderStrategy (list) --
The capacity provider strategy that are associated with the task set.
(dict) --
The details of a capacity provider strategy. A capacity provider strategy can be set when using the RunTask or CreateCluster APIs or as the default capacity provider strategy for a cluster with the CreateCluster API.
Only capacity providers that are already associated with a cluster and have an ACTIVE or UPDATING status can be used in a capacity provider strategy. The PutClusterCapacityProviders API is used to associate a capacity provider with a cluster.
If specifying a capacity provider that uses an Auto Scaling group, the capacity provider must already be created. New Auto Scaling group capacity providers can be created with the CreateCapacityProvider API operation.
To use a Fargate capacity provider, specify either the FARGATE or FARGATE_SPOT capacity providers. The Fargate capacity providers are available to all accounts and only need to be associated with a cluster to be used in a capacity provider strategy.
A capacity provider strategy may contain a maximum of 6 capacity providers.
capacityProvider (string) --
The short name of the capacity provider.
weight (integer) --
The weight value designates the relative percentage of the total number of tasks launched that should use the specified capacity provider. The weight value is taken into consideration after the base value, if defined, is satisfied.
If no weight value is specified, the default value of 0 is used. When multiple capacity providers are specified within a capacity provider strategy, at least one of the capacity providers must have a weight value greater than zero and any capacity providers with a weight of 0 can't be used to place tasks. If you specify multiple capacity providers in a strategy that all have a weight of 0, any RunTask or CreateService actions using the capacity provider strategy will fail.
An example scenario for using weights is defining a strategy that contains two capacity providers and both have a weight of 1, then when the base is satisfied, the tasks will be split evenly across the two capacity providers. Using that same logic, if you specify a weight of 1 for capacityProviderA and a weight of 4 for capacityProviderB, then for every one task that's run using capacityProviderA, four tasks would use capacityProviderB.
base (integer) --
The base value designates how many tasks, at a minimum, to run on the specified capacity provider. Only one capacity provider in a capacity provider strategy can have a base defined. If no value is specified, the default value of 0 is used.

For specific notes and restrictions regarding the use of load balancers with services and task sets, see the CreateService and CreateTaskSet actions.
When you add, update, or remove a load blaancer configuration, Amazon ECS starts a new deployment with the updated Elastic Load Balancing configuration. This causes tasks to register to and deregister from load balancers.
We recommend that you verify this on a test environment before you update the Elastic Load Balancing configuration.
A service-linked role is required for services that use multiple target groups. For more information, see Service-linked roles in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
targetGroupArn (string) --
The full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Elastic Load Balancing target group or groups associated with a service or task set.

For services using the ECS deployment controller, you can specify one or multiple target groups. For more information, see Registering Multiple Target Groups with a Service in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
For services using the CODE_DEPLOY deployment controller, you're required to define two target groups for the load balancer. For more information, see Blue/Green Deployment with CodeDeploy in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
loadBalancerName (string) --
The name of the load balancer to associate with the Amazon ECS service or task set.
A load balancer name is only specified when using a Classic Load Balancer. If you are using an Application Load Balancer or a Network Load Balancer the load balancer name parameter should be omitted.

However, you can't specify both.
containerPort (integer) --
The port value to be used for your service discovery service. It's already specified in the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value. However, you can't specify both.
