AWS Cloud Control API

2021/09/30 - AWS Cloud Control API - 8 new api methods

Changes  Initial release of the SDK for AWS Cloud Control API

DeleteResource (new) Link ¶

Deletes the specified resource. For details, see Deleting a resource in the Amazon Web Services Cloud Control API User Guide .

After you have initiated a resource deletion request, you can monitor the progress of your request by calling GetResourceRequestStatus using the RequestToken of the ProgressEvent returned by DeleteResource .

See also: AWS API Documentation

Request Syntax

client.delete_resource(
    TypeName='string',
    TypeVersionId='string',
    RoleArn='string',
    ClientToken='string',
    Identifier='string'
)
type TypeName

string

param TypeName

[REQUIRED]

The name of the resource type.

type TypeVersionId

string

param TypeVersionId

For private resource types, the type version to use in this resource operation. If you do not specify a resource version, CloudFormation uses the default version.

type RoleArn

string

param RoleArn

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) for Cloud Control API to use when performing this resource operation. The role specified must have the permissions required for this operation. The necessary permissions for each event handler are defined in the handlers section of the resource type definition schema.

If you do not specify a role, Cloud Control API uses a temporary session created using your Amazon Web Services user credentials.

For more information, see Specifying credentials in the Amazon Web Services Cloud Control API User Guide .

type ClientToken

string

param ClientToken

A unique identifier to ensure the idempotency of the resource request. As a best practice, specify this token to ensure idempotency, so that Amazon Web Services Cloud Control API can accurately distinguish between request retries and new resource requests. You might retry a resource request to ensure that it was successfully received.

A client token is valid for 36 hours once used. After that, a resource request with the same client token is treated as a new request.

If you do not specify a client token, one is generated for inclusion in the request.

For more information, see Ensuring resource operation requests are unique in the Amazon Web Services Cloud Control API User Guide .

This field is autopopulated if not provided.

type Identifier

string

param Identifier

[REQUIRED]

The identifier for the resource.

You can specify the primary identifier, or any secondary identifier defined for the resource type in its resource schema. You can only specify one identifier. Primary identifiers can be specified as a string or JSON; secondary identifiers must be specified as JSON.

For compound primary identifiers (that is, one that consists of multiple resource properties strung together), to specify the primary identifier as a string, list the property values in the order they are specified in the primary identifier definition, separated by | .

For more information, see Identifying resources in the Amazon Web Services Cloud Control API User Guide .

client.get_resource(
    TypeName='string',
    TypeVersionId='string',
    RoleArn='string',
    Identifier='string'
)
type TypeName

string

param TypeName

[REQUIRED]

The name of the resource type.

type TypeVersionId

string

param TypeVersionId

For private resource types, the type version to use in this resource operation. If you do not specify a resource version, CloudFormation uses the default version.

type RoleArn

string

param RoleArn

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) for Cloud Control API to use when performing this resource operation. The role specified must have the permissions required for this operation. The necessary permissions for each event handler are defined in the handlers section of the resource type definition schema.

If you do not specify a role, Cloud Control API uses a temporary session created using your Amazon Web Services user credentials.

For more information, see Specifying credentials in the Amazon Web Services Cloud Control API User Guide .

type Identifier

string

param Identifier

[REQUIRED]

The identifier for the resource.

You can specify the primary identifier, or any secondary identifier defined for the resource type in its resource schema. You can only specify one identifier. Primary identifiers can be specified as a string or JSON; secondary identifiers must be specified as JSON.

For compound primary identifiers (that is, one that consists of multiple resource properties strung together), to specify the primary identifier as a string, list the property values in the order they are specified in the primary identifier definition, separated by | .

For more information, see Identifying resources in the Amazon Web Services Cloud Control API User Guide .

Response Structure

  • (dict) --

    • TypeName (string) --

      The name of the resource type.

    • ResourceDescription (dict) --

      Represents information about a provisioned resource.

      • Identifier (string) --

        The primary identifier for the resource.

        For more information, see Identifying resources in the Amazon Web Services Cloud Control API User Guide .

      • Properties (string) --

        A list of the resource properties and their current values.

UpdateResource (new) Link ¶

Updates the specified property values in the resource.

You specify your resource property updates as a list of patch operations contained in a JSON patch document that adheres to the RFC 6902 - JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Patch standard.

For details on how Cloud Control API performs resource update operations, see Updating a resource in the Amazon Web Services Cloud Control API User Guide .

After you have initiated a resource update request, you can monitor the progress of your request by calling GetResourceRequestStatus using the RequestToken of the ProgressEvent returned by UpdateResource .

For more information about the properties of a specific resource, refer to the related topic for the resource in the Resource and property types reference in the Amazon Web Services CloudFormation Users Guide .

type ClientToken

string

param ClientToken

A unique identifier to ensure the idempotency of the resource request. As a best practice, specify this token to ensure idempotency, so that Amazon Web Services Cloud Control API can accurately distinguish between request retries and new resource requests. You might retry a resource request to ensure that it was successfully received.

A client token is valid for 36 hours once used. After that, a resource request with the same client token is treated as a new request.

If you do not specify a client token, one is generated for inclusion in the request.

For more information, see Ensuring resource operation requests are unique in the Amazon Web Services Cloud Control API User Guide .

This field is autopopulated if not provided.

[REQUIRED]
