DeactivateType (updated) Link ¶
Changes (request)
{'Type': {'HOOK'}}

Deactivates a public extension that was previously activated in this account and region.

Once deactivated, an extension can't be used in any CloudFormation operation. This includes stack update operations where the stack template includes the extension, even if no updates are being made to the extension. In addition, deactivated extensions aren't automatically updated if a new version of the extension is released.

DeregisterType (updated) Link ¶
Changes (request)
{'Type': {'HOOK'}}

Marks an extension or extension version as DEPRECATED in the CloudFormation registry, removing it from active use. Deprecated extensions or extension versions cannot be used in CloudFormation operations.

To deregister an entire extension, you must individually deregister all active versions of that extension. If an extension has only a single active version, deregistering that version results in the extension itself being deregistered and marked as deprecated in the registry.

You can't deregister the default version of an extension if there are other active version of that extension. If you do deregister the default version of an extension, the extension type itself is deregistered as well and marked as deprecated.

To view the deprecation status of an extension or extension version, use DescribeType.

    • StatusReason (string) --

      A description of the change set's status. For example, if your attempt to create a change set failed, CloudFormation shows the error message.

    • NotificationARNs (list) --

      The ARNs of the Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topics that will be associated with the stack if you execute the change set.

      • (string) --

    • RollbackConfiguration (dict) --

      The rollback triggers for CloudFormation to monitor during stack creation and updating operations, and for the specified monitoring period afterwards.

      • RollbackTriggers (list) --

        The triggers to monitor during stack creation or update actions.

        By default, CloudFormation saves the rollback triggers specified for a stack and applies them to any subsequent update operations for the stack, unless you specify otherwise. If you do specify rollback triggers for this parameter, those triggers replace any list of triggers previously specified for the stack. This means:

        • To use the rollback triggers previously specified for this stack, if any, don't specify this parameter.

        • To specify new or updated rollback triggers, you must specify all the triggers that you want used for this stack, even triggers you've specified before (for example, when creating the stack or during a previous stack update). Any triggers that you don't include in the updated list of triggers are no longer applied to the stack.

        • To remove all currently specified triggers, specify an empty list for this parameter.

        If a specified trigger is missing, the entire stack operation fails and is rolled back.

        • (dict) --

          A rollback trigger CloudFormation monitors during creation and updating of stacks. If any of the alarms you specify goes to ALARM state during the stack operation or within the specified monitoring period afterwards, CloudFormation rolls back the entire stack operation.

          • Arn (string) --

            The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the rollback trigger.

            If a specified trigger is missing, the entire stack operation fails and is rolled back.

          • Type (string) --

            The resource type of the rollback trigger. Specify either AWS::CloudWatch::Alarm or AWS::CloudWatch::CompositeAlarm resource types.

      • MonitoringTimeInMinutes (integer) --

        The amount of time, in minutes, during which CloudFormation should monitor all the rollback triggers after the stack creation or update operation deploys all necessary resources.

        The default is 0 minutes.

        If you specify a monitoring period but don't specify any rollback triggers, CloudFormation still waits the specified period of time before cleaning up old resources after update operations. You can use this monitoring period to perform any manual stack validation desired, and manually cancel the stack creation or update (using CancelUpdateStack, for example) as necessary.

        If you specify 0 for this parameter, CloudFormation still monitors the specified rollback triggers during stack creation and update operations. Then, for update operations, it begins disposing of old resources immediately once the operation completes.

    • Capabilities (list) --

      If you execute the change set, the list of capabilities that were explicitly acknowledged when the change set was created.

      • (string) --

    • Tags (list) --

      If you execute the change set, the tags that will be associated with the stack.

      • (dict) --

        The Tag type enables you to specify a key-value pair that can be used to store information about an CloudFormation stack.

        • Key (string) --

          Required . A string used to identify this tag. You can specify a maximum of 128 characters for a tag key. Tags owned by Amazon Web Services (Amazon Web Services) have the reserved prefix: aws: .

        • Value (string) --

          Required . A string containing the value for this tag. You can specify a maximum of 256 characters for a tag value.

    • Changes (list) --

      A list of Change structures that describes the resources CloudFormation changes if you execute the change set.

      • (dict) --

        The Change structure describes the changes CloudFormation will perform if you execute the change set.

        • Type (string) --

          The type of entity that CloudFormation changes. Currently, the only entity type is Resource .

        • HookInvocationCount (integer) --

          Is either null , if no hooks invoke for the resource, or contains the number of hooks that will invoke for the resource.

        • ResourceChange (dict) --

          A ResourceChange structure that describes the resource and action that CloudFormation will perform.

          • Action (string) --

            The action that CloudFormation takes on the resource, such as Add (adds a new resource), Modify (changes a resource), Remove (deletes a resource), Import (imports a resource), or Dynamic (exact action for the resource can't be determined).

          • LogicalResourceId (string) --

            The resource's logical ID, which is defined in the stack's template.

          • PhysicalResourceId (string) --

            The resource's physical ID (resource name). Resources that you are adding don't have physical IDs because they haven't been created.

          • ResourceType (string) --

            The type of CloudFormation resource, such as AWS::S3::Bucket .

          • Replacement (string) --

            For the Modify action, indicates whether CloudFormation will replace the resource by creating a new one and deleting the old one. This value depends on the value of the RequiresRecreation property in the ResourceTargetDefinition structure. For example, if the RequiresRecreation field is Always and the Evaluation field is Static , Replacement is True . If the RequiresRecreation field is Always and the Evaluation field is Dynamic , Replacement is Conditionally .

            If you have multiple changes with different RequiresRecreation values, the Replacement value depends on the change with the most impact. A RequiresRecreation value of Always has the most impact, followed by Conditionally , and then Never .

          • Scope (list) --

            For the Modify action, indicates which resource attribute is triggering this update, such as a change in the resource attribute's Metadata , Properties , or Tags .

            • (string) --

          • Details (list) --

            For the Modify action, a list of ResourceChangeDetail structures that describes the changes that CloudFormation will make to the resource.

            • (dict) --

              For a resource with Modify as the action, the ResourceChange structure describes the changes CloudFormation will make to that resource.

              • Target (dict) --

                A ResourceTargetDefinition structure that describes the field that CloudFormation will change and whether the resource will be recreated.

                • Attribute (string) --

                  Indicates which resource attribute is triggering this update, such as a change in the resource attribute's Metadata , Properties , or Tags .

                • Name (string) --

                  If the Attribute value is Properties , the name of the property. For all other attributes, the value is null.

                • RequiresRecreation (string) --

                  If the Attribute value is Properties , indicates whether a change to this property causes the resource to be recreated. The value can be Never , Always , or Conditionally . To determine the conditions for a Conditionally recreation, see the update behavior for that property in the CloudFormation User Guide.

              • Evaluation (string) --

                Indicates whether CloudFormation can determine the target value, and whether the target value will change before you execute a change set.

                For Static evaluations, CloudFormation can determine that the target value will change, and its value. For example, if you directly modify the InstanceType property of an EC2 instance, CloudFormation knows that this property value will change, and its value, so this is a Static evaluation.

                For Dynamic evaluations, can't determine the target value because it depends on the result of an intrinsic function, such as a Ref or Fn::GetAtt intrinsic function, when the stack is updated. For example, if your template includes a reference to a resource that's conditionally recreated, the value of the reference (the physical ID of the resource) might change, depending on if the resource is recreated. If the resource is recreated, it will have a new physical ID, so all references to that resource will also be updated.

              • ChangeSource (string) --

                The group to which the CausingEntity value belongs. There are five entity groups:

                • ResourceReference entities are Ref intrinsic functions that refer to resources in the template, such as { "Ref" : "MyEC2InstanceResource" } .

                • ParameterReference entities are Ref intrinsic functions that get template parameter values, such as { "Ref" : "MyPasswordParameter" } .

                • ResourceAttribute entities are Fn::GetAtt intrinsic functions that get resource attribute values, such as { "Fn::GetAtt" : [ "MyEC2InstanceResource", "PublicDnsName" ] } .

                • DirectModification entities are changes that are made directly to the template.

                • Automatic entities are AWS::CloudFormation::Stack resource types, which are also known as nested stacks. If you made no changes to the AWS::CloudFormation::Stack resource, CloudFormation sets the ChangeSource to Automatic because the nested stack's template might have changed. Changes to a nested stack's template aren't visible to CloudFormation until you run an update on the parent stack.

              • CausingEntity (string) --

                The identity of the entity that triggered this change. This entity is a member of the group that's specified by the ChangeSource field. For example, if you modified the value of the KeyPairName parameter, the CausingEntity is the name of the parameter ( KeyPairName ).

                If the ChangeSource value is DirectModification , no value is given for CausingEntity .

          • ChangeSetId (string) --

            The change set ID of the nested change set.

          • ModuleInfo (dict) --

            Contains information about the module from which the resource was created, if the resource was created from a module included in the stack template.

            • TypeHierarchy (string) --

              A concatenated list of the module type or types containing the resource. Module types are listed starting with the inner-most nested module, and separated by / .

              In the following example, the resource was created from a module of type AWS::First::Example::MODULE , that's nested inside a parent module of type AWS::Second::Example::MODULE .

              AWS::First::Example::MODULE/AWS::Second::Example::MODULE

            • LogicalIdHierarchy (string) --

              A concatenated list of the logical IDs of the module or modules containing the resource. Modules are listed starting with the inner-most nested module, and separated by / .

              In the following example, the resource was created from a module, moduleA , that's nested inside a parent module, moduleB .

              moduleA/moduleB

              For more information, see Referencing resources in a module in the CloudFormation User Guide .

    • NextToken (string) --

      If the output exceeds 1 MB, a string that identifies the next page of changes. If there is no additional page, this value is null.

    • IncludeNestedStacks (boolean) --

      Verifies if IncludeNestedStacks is set to True .

    • ParentChangeSetId (string) --

      Specifies the change set ID of the parent change set in the current nested change set hierarchy.

    • RootChangeSetId (string) --

      Specifies the change set ID of the root change set in the current nested change set hierarchy.

          The token passed to the operation that generated this event.

          All events triggered by a given stack operation are assigned the same client request token, which you can use to track operations. For example, if you execute a CreateStack operation with the token token1 , then all the StackEvents generated by that operation will have ClientRequestToken set as token1 .

          In the console, stack operations display the client request token on the Events tab. Stack operations that are initiated from the console use the token format Console-StackOperation-ID , which helps you easily identify the stack operation . For example, if you create a stack using the console, each stack event would be assigned the same token in the following format: Console-CreateStack-7f59c3cf-00d2-40c7-b2ff-e75db0987002 .

      For resource type extensions, the provisioning behavior of the resource type. CloudFormation determines the provisioning type during registration, based on the types of handlers in the schema handler package submitted.

      Valid values include:

      • FULLY_MUTABLE : The resource type includes an update handler to process updates to the type during stack update operations.

      • IMMUTABLE : The resource type doesn't include an update handler, so the type can't be updated and must instead be replaced during stack update operations.

      • NON_PROVISIONABLE : The resource type doesn't include all the following handlers, and therefore can't actually be provisioned.

        • create

        For more information, see Activating public modules for use in your account in the CloudFormation User Guide .

        • TypeNameAlias (string) --

          An alias assigned to the public extension, in this account and region. If you specify an alias for the extension, CloudFormation treats the alias as the extension type name within this account and region.

      If the registered extension calls any Amazon Web Services APIs, you must create an IAM execution role that includes the necessary permissions to call those Amazon Web Services APIs, and provision that execution role in your account. CloudFormation then assumes that execution role to provide your extension with the appropriate credentials.

    • Visibility (string) --

      The scope at which the extension is visible and usable in CloudFormation operations.

      Valid values include:

      • PRIVATE : The extension is only visible and usable within the account in which it is registered. CloudFormation marks any extensions you register as PRIVATE .

      • PUBLIC : The extension is publicly visible and usable within any Amazon account.

    • SourceUrl (string) --

      The URL of the source code for the extension.

    • DocumentationUrl (string) --

      The URL of a page providing detailed documentation for this extension.

    • LastUpdated (datetime) --

      When the specified extension version was registered. This applies only to:

      • Private extensions you have registered in your account. For more information, see RegisterType.

      • Public extensions you have activated in your account with auto-update specified. For more information, see ActivateType.

    • TimeCreated (datetime) --

      When the specified private extension version was registered or activated in your account.

    • ConfigurationSchema (string) --

      A JSON string that represent the current configuration data for the extension in this account and region.

      To set the configuration data for an extension, use SetTypeConfiguration. For more information, see Configuring extensions at the account level in the CloudFormation User Guide .

    • PublisherId (string) --

      The publisher ID of the extension publisher.

      This applies only to public third-party extensions. For private registered extensions, and extensions provided by Amazon Web Services, CloudFormation returns null .

    • OriginalTypeName (string) --

      For public extensions that have been activated for this account and region, the type name of the public extension.

      If you specified a TypeNameAlias when enabling the extension in this account and region, CloudFormation treats that alias as the extension's type name within the account and region, not the type name of the public extension. For more information, see Specifying aliases to refer to extensions in the CloudFormation User Guide .

    • OriginalTypeArn (string) --

      For public extensions that have been activated for this account and region, the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the public extension.

    • PublicVersionNumber (string) --

      The version number of a public third-party extension.

      This applies only if you specify a public extension you have activated in your account, or specify a public extension without specifying a version. For all other extensions, CloudFormation returns null .

    • LatestPublicVersion (string) --

      The latest version of a public extension that is available for use.

      This only applies if you specify a public extension, and you don't specify a version. For all other requests, CloudFormation returns null .

    • IsActivated (boolean) --

      Whether or not the extension is activated in the account and region.

      This only applies to public third-party extensions. For all other extensions, CloudFormation returns null .

    • AutoUpdate (boolean) --

      Whether CloudFormation automatically updates the extension in this account and region when a new minor version is published by the extension publisher. Major versions released by the publisher must be manually updated. For more information, see Activating public extensions for use in your account in the CloudFormation User Guide .

RegisterType (updated) Link ¶
Changes (request)
{'Type': {'HOOK'}}

Registers an extension with the CloudFormation service. Registering an extension makes it available for use in CloudFormation templates in your Amazon Web Services account, and includes:

  • Validating the extension schema.

  • Determining which handlers, if any, have been specified for the extension.

  • Making the extension available for use in your account.

For more information on how to develop extensions and ready them for registration, see Creating Resource Providers in the CloudFormation CLI User Guide .

You can have a maximum of 50 resource extension versions registered at a time. This maximum is per account and per region. Use DeregisterType to deregister specific extension versions if necessary.

Once you have initiated a registration request using RegisterType , you can use DescribeTypeRegistration to monitor the progress of the registration request.

Once you have registered a private extension in your account and region, use SetTypeConfiguration to specify configuration properties for the extension. For more information, see Configuring extensions at the account level in the CloudFormation User Guide .

[REQUIRED]

A URL to the S3 bucket containing the extension project package that contains the necessary files for the extension you want to register.

For information on generating a schema handler package for the extension you want to register, see submit in the CloudFormation CLI User Guide .

Note

The user registering the extension must be able to access the package in the S3 bucket. That's, the user needs to have GetObject permissions for the schema handler package. For more information, see Actions, Resources, and Condition Keys for Amazon S3 in the Identity and Access Management User Guide .

type LoggingConfig

dict

param LoggingConfig

Specifies logging configuration information for an extension.

  • LogRoleArn (string) -- [REQUIRED]

    The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the role that CloudFormation should assume when sending log entries to CloudWatch Logs.

  • LogGroupName (string) -- [REQUIRED]

    The Amazon CloudWatch Logs group to which CloudFormation sends error logging information when invoking the extension's handlers.

type ExecutionRoleArn

string

param ExecutionRoleArn

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM role for CloudFormation to assume when invoking the extension.

For CloudFormation to assume the specified execution role, the role must contain a trust relationship with the CloudFormation service principle ( resources.cloudformation.amazonaws.com ). For more information on adding trust relationships, see Modifying a role trust policy in the Identity and Access Management User Guide .

If your extension calls Amazon Web Services APIs in any of its handlers, you must create an IAM execution role that includes the necessary permissions to call those Amazon Web Services APIs, and provision that execution role in your account. When CloudFormation needs to invoke the resource type handler, CloudFormation assumes this execution role to create a temporary session token, which it then passes to the resource type handler, thereby supplying your resource type with the appropriate credentials.

type ClientRequestToken

string

param ClientRequestToken

A unique identifier that acts as an idempotency key for this registration request. Specifying a client request token prevents CloudFormation from generating more than one version of an extension from the same registration request, even if the request is submitted multiple times.

Tests a registered extension to make sure it meets all necessary requirements for being published in the CloudFormation registry.

  • For resource types, this includes passing all contracts tests defined for the type.

  • For modules, this includes determining if the module's model meets all necessary requirements.

For more information, see Testing your public extension prior to publishing in the CloudFormation CLI User Guide .

If you don't specify a version, CloudFormation uses the default version of the extension in your account and region for testing.

To perform testing, CloudFormation assumes the execution role specified when the type was registered. For more information, see RegisterType.

Once you've initiated testing on an extension using TestType , you can use DescribeType to monitor the current test status and test status description for the extension.

An extension must have a test status of PASSED before it can be published. For more information, see Publishing extensions to make them available for public use in the CloudFormation CLI User Guide .
