Associates the specified Systems Manager document with the specified instances or targets.

When you associate a document with one or more instances, SSM Agent running on the instance processes the document and configures the instance as specified. If you associate a document with an instance that already has an associated document, the system returns the AssociationAlreadyExists exception.

type Name

string

param Name

[REQUIRED]

The name of the SSM document that contains the configuration information for the instance. You can specify Command or Automation documents.

You can specify AWS-predefined documents, documents you created, or a document that is shared with you from another account.

For SSM documents that are shared with you from other AWS accounts, you must specify the complete SSM document ARN, in the following format:

arn:partition:ssm:region:account-id:document/document-name

For example:

arn:aws:ssm:us-east-2:12345678912:document/My-Shared-Document

For AWS-predefined documents and SSM documents you created in your account, you only need to specify the document name. For example, AWS-ApplyPatchBaseline or My-Document .

type DocumentVersion

string

param DocumentVersion

The document version you want to associate with the target(s). Can be a specific version or the default version.

type InstanceId

string

param InstanceId

The instance ID.

Note

InstanceId has been deprecated. To specify an instance ID for an association, use the Targets parameter. Requests that include the parameter InstanceID with SSM documents that use schema version 2.0 or later will fail. In addition, if you use the parameter InstanceId , you cannot use the parameters AssociationName , DocumentVersion , MaxErrors , MaxConcurrency , OutputLocation , or ScheduleExpression . To use these parameters, you must use the Targets parameter.

type Parameters

dict

param Parameters

The parameters for the runtime configuration of the document.

  • (string) --

    • (list) --

      • (string) --

type Targets

list

param Targets

The targets for the association. You can target instances by using tags, AWS Resource Groups, all instances in an AWS account, or individual instance IDs. For more information about choosing targets for an association, see Using targets and rate controls with State Manager associations in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide .

  • (dict) --

    An array of search criteria that targets instances using a Key,Value combination that you specify.

    Supported formats include the following.

    • Key=InstanceIds,Values=instance-id-1,instance-id-2,instance-id-3

    • Key=tag:my-tag-key,Values=my-tag-value-1,my-tag-value-2

    • Key=tag-key,Values=my-tag-key-1,my-tag-key-2

    • (Maintenance window targets only) Key=resource-groups:Name,Values=resource-group-name

    • (Maintenance window targets only) Key=resource-groups:ResourceTypeFilters,Values=resource-type-1,resource-type-2

    For example:

    • Key=InstanceIds,Values=i-02573cafcfEXAMPLE,i-0471e04240EXAMPLE,i-07782c72faEXAMPLE

    • Key=tag:CostCenter,Values=CostCenter1,CostCenter2,CostCenter3

    • Key=tag-key,Values=Name,Instance-Type,CostCenter

    • (Maintenance window targets only) Key=resource-groups:Name,Values=ProductionResourceGroup This example demonstrates how to target all resources in the resource group ProductionResourceGroup in your maintenance window.

    • (Maintenance window targets only) Key=resource-groups:ResourceTypeFilters,Values=AWS::EC2::INSTANCE,AWS::EC2::VPC This example demonstrates how to target only EC2 instances and VPCs in your maintenance window.

    • (State Manager association targets only) Key=InstanceIds,Values=* This example demonstrates how to target all managed instances in the AWS Region where the association was created.

    For information about how to send commands that target instances using Key,Value parameters, see Targeting multiple instances in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide .

    • Key (string) --

      User-defined criteria for sending commands that target instances that meet the criteria.

    • Values (list) --

      User-defined criteria that maps to Key . For example, if you specified tag:ServerRole , you could specify value:WebServer to run a command on instances that include EC2 tags of ServerRole,WebServer .

      • (string) --

type ScheduleExpression

string

param ScheduleExpression

A cron expression when the association will be applied to the target(s).

type OutputLocation

dict

param OutputLocation

An S3 bucket where you want to store the output details of the request.

  • S3Location (dict) --

    An S3 bucket where you want to store the results of this request.

    • OutputS3Region (string) --

      (Deprecated) You can no longer specify this parameter. The system ignores it. Instead, Systems Manager automatically determines the Region of the S3 bucket.

    • OutputS3BucketName (string) --

      The name of the S3 bucket.

    • OutputS3KeyPrefix (string) --

      The S3 bucket subfolder.

type AssociationName

string

param AssociationName

Specify a descriptive name for the association.

type AutomationTargetParameterName

string

param AutomationTargetParameterName

Specify the target for the association. This target is required for associations that use an Automation document and target resources by using rate controls.

type MaxErrors

string

param MaxErrors

The number of errors that are allowed before the system stops sending requests to run the association on additional targets. You can specify either an absolute number of errors, for example 10, or a percentage of the target set, for example 10%. If you specify 3, for example, the system stops sending requests when the fourth error is received. If you specify 0, then the system stops sending requests after the first error is returned. If you run an association on 50 instances and set MaxError to 10%, then the system stops sending the request when the sixth error is received.

Executions that are already running an association when MaxErrors is reached are allowed to complete, but some of these executions may fail as well. If you need to ensure that there won't be more than max-errors failed executions, set MaxConcurrency to 1 so that executions proceed one at a time.

type MaxConcurrency

string

param MaxConcurrency

The maximum number of targets allowed to run the association at the same time. You can specify a number, for example 10, or a percentage of the target set, for example 10%. The default value is 100%, which means all targets run the association at the same time.

If a new instance starts and attempts to run an association while Systems Manager is running MaxConcurrency associations, the association is allowed to run. During the next association interval, the new instance will process its association within the limit specified for MaxConcurrency.

type ComplianceSeverity

string

param ComplianceSeverity

The severity level to assign to the association.

type SyncCompliance

string

param SyncCompliance

The mode for generating association compliance. You can specify AUTO or MANUAL . In AUTO mode, the system uses the status of the association execution to determine the compliance status. If the association execution runs successfully, then the association is COMPLIANT . If the association execution doesn't run successfully, the association is NON-COMPLIANT .

In MANUAL mode, you must specify the AssociationId as a parameter for the PutComplianceItems API action. In this case, compliance data is not managed by State Manager. It is managed by your direct call to the PutComplianceItems API action.

By default, all associations use AUTO mode.

type ApplyOnlyAtCronInterval

boolean

param ApplyOnlyAtCronInterval

By default, when you create a new associations, the system runs it immediately after it is created and then according to the schedule you specified. Specify this option if you don't want an association to run immediately after you create it.

      Specify a descriptive name for the association.

    • MaxErrors (string) --

      The number of errors that are allowed before the system stops sending requests to run the association on additional targets. You can specify either an absolute number of errors, for example 10, or a percentage of the target set, for example 10%. If you specify 3, for example, the system stops sending requests when the fourth error is received. If you specify 0, then the system stops sending requests after the first error is returned. If you run an association on 50 instances and set MaxError to 10%, then the system stops sending the request when the sixth error is received.

      Executions that are already running an association when MaxErrors is reached are allowed to complete, but some of these executions may fail as well. If you need to ensure that there won't be more than max-errors failed executions, set MaxConcurrency to 1 so that executions proceed one at a time.

    • MaxConcurrency (string) --

      The maximum number of targets allowed to run the association at the same time. You can specify a number, for example 10, or a percentage of the target set, for example 10%. The default value is 100%, which means all targets run the association at the same time.

      If a new instance starts and attempts to run an association while Systems Manager is running MaxConcurrency associations, the association is allowed to run. During the next association interval, the new instance will process its association within the limit specified for MaxConcurrency.

    • ComplianceSeverity (string) --

      The severity level to assign to the association.

    • SyncCompliance (string) --

      The mode for generating association compliance. You can specify AUTO or MANUAL . In AUTO mode, the system uses the status of the association execution to determine the compliance status. If the association execution runs successfully, then the association is COMPLIANT . If the association execution doesn't run successfully, the association is NON-COMPLIANT .

      In MANUAL mode, you must specify the AssociationId as a parameter for the PutComplianceItems API action. In this case, compliance data is not managed by State Manager. It is managed by your direct call to the PutComplianceItems API action.

      By default, all associations use AUTO mode.

    • ApplyOnlyAtCronInterval (boolean) --

      By default, when you create a new associations, the system runs it immediately after it is created and then according to the schedule you specified. Specify this option if you don't want an association to run immediately after you create it.

You can specify either an absolute number of errors, for example 10, or a percentage of the target set, for example 10%. If you specify 3, for example, the system stops sending requests when the fourth error is received. If you specify 0, then the system stops sending requests after the first error is returned. If you run an association on 50 instances and set MaxError to 10%, then the system stops sending the request when the sixth error is received.

        Executions that are already running an association when MaxErrors is reached are allowed to complete, but some of these executions may fail as well. If you need to ensure that there won't be more than max-errors failed executions, set MaxConcurrency to 1 so that executions proceed one at a time.

      • MaxConcurrency (string) --

        The maximum number of targets allowed to run the association at the same time. You can specify a number, for example 10, or a percentage of the target set, for example 10%. The default value is 100%, which means all targets run the association at the same time.

        If a new instance starts and attempts to run an association while Systems Manager is running MaxConcurrency associations, the association is allowed to run. During the next association interval, the new instance will process its association within the limit specified for MaxConcurrency.

      • ComplianceSeverity (string) --

        The severity level that is assigned to the association.

      • SyncCompliance (string) --

        The mode for generating association compliance. You can specify AUTO or MANUAL . In AUTO mode, the system uses the status of the association execution to determine the compliance status. If the association execution runs successfully, then the association is COMPLIANT . If the association execution doesn't run successfully, the association is NON-COMPLIANT .

        In MANUAL mode, you must specify the AssociationId as a parameter for the PutComplianceItems API action. In this case, compliance data is not managed by State Manager. It is managed by your direct call to the PutComplianceItems API action.

        By default, all associations use AUTO mode.

      • ApplyOnlyAtCronInterval (boolean) --

        By default, when you create a new associations, the system runs it immediately after it is created and then according to the schedule you specified. Specify this option if you don't want an association to run immediately after you create it.

    For information about how to send commands that target instances using Key,Value parameters, see Targeting multiple instances in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide .

    • Key (string) --

      User-defined criteria for sending commands that target instances that meet the criteria.

    • Values (list) --

      User-defined criteria that maps to Key . For example, if you specified tag:ServerRole , you could specify value:WebServer to run a command on instances that include EC2 tags of ServerRole,WebServer .

      • (string) --

type AssociationName

string

param AssociationName

The name of the association that you want to update.

type AssociationVersion

string

param AssociationVersion

This parameter is provided for concurrency control purposes. You must specify the latest association version in the service. If you want to ensure that this request succeeds, either specify $LATEST , or omit this parameter.

type AutomationTargetParameterName

string

param AutomationTargetParameterName

Specify the target for the association. This target is required for associations that use an Automation document and target resources by using rate controls.

type MaxErrors

string

param MaxErrors

The number of errors that are allowed before the system stops sending requests to run the association on additional targets. You can specify either an absolute number of errors, for example 10, or a percentage of the target set, for example 10%. If you specify 3, for example, the system stops sending requests when the fourth error is received. If you specify 0, then the system stops sending requests after the first error is returned. If you run an association on 50 instances and set MaxError to 10%, then the system stops sending the request when the sixth error is received.

Executions that are already running an association when MaxErrors is reached are allowed to complete, but some of these executions may fail as well. If you need to ensure that there won't be more than max-errors failed executions, set MaxConcurrency to 1 so that executions proceed one at a time.

type MaxConcurrency

string

param MaxConcurrency

The maximum number of targets allowed to run the association at the same time. You can specify a number, for example 10, or a percentage of the target set, for example 10%. The default value is 100%, which means all targets run the association at the same time.

If a new instance starts and attempts to run an association while Systems Manager is running MaxConcurrency associations, the association is allowed to run. During the next association interval, the new instance will process its association within the limit specified for MaxConcurrency.

type ComplianceSeverity

string

param ComplianceSeverity

The severity level to assign to the association.

type SyncCompliance

string

param SyncCompliance

The mode for generating association compliance. You can specify AUTO or MANUAL . In AUTO mode, the system uses the status of the association execution to determine the compliance status. If the association execution runs successfully, then the association is COMPLIANT . If the association execution doesn't run successfully, the association is NON-COMPLIANT .

In MANUAL mode, you must specify the AssociationId as a parameter for the PutComplianceItems API action. In this case, compliance data is not managed by State Manager. It is managed by your direct call to the PutComplianceItems API action.

By default, all associations use AUTO mode.

type ApplyOnlyAtCronInterval

boolean

param ApplyOnlyAtCronInterval

By default, when you update an association, the system runs it immediately after it is updated and then according to the schedule you specified. Specify this option if you don't want an association to run immediately after you update it.

Also, if you specified this option when you created the association, you can reset it. To do so, specify the no-apply-only-at-cron-interval parameter when you update the association from the command line. This parameter forces the association to run immediately after updating it and according to the interval specified.
