string
Defines the operating system the patch baseline applies to. The default value is WINDOWS.
string
[REQUIRED]
The name of the patch baseline.
dict
A set of global filters used to include patches in the baseline.
PatchFilters (list) -- [REQUIRED]
The set of patch filters that make up the group.
(dict) --
Defines which patches should be included in a patch baseline.
A patch filter consists of a key and a set of values. The filter key is a patch property. For example, the available filter keys for WINDOWS are PATCH_SET, PRODUCT, PRODUCT_FAMILY, CLASSIFICATION, and MSRC_SEVERITY.
The filter values define a matching criterion for the patch property indicated by the key. For example, if the filter key is PRODUCT and the filter values are ["Office 2013", "Office 2016"], then the filter accepts all patches where product name is either "Office 2013" or "Office 2016". The filter values can be exact values for the patch property given as a key, or a wildcard (*), which matches all values.
You can view lists of valid values for the patch properties by running the DescribePatchProperties command. For information about which patch properties can be used with each major operating system, see DescribePatchProperties.
Key (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The key for the filter.
Run the DescribePatchProperties command to view lists of valid keys for each operating system type.
Values (list) -- [REQUIRED]

Run the DescribePatchProperties command to view lists of valid values for each key based on operating system type.
(string) --
dict
A set of rules used to include patches in the baseline.
PatchRules (list) -- [REQUIRED]
The rules that make up the rule group.
(dict) --
Defines an approval rule for a patch baseline.
PatchFilterGroup (dict) -- [REQUIRED]

(string) --
ComplianceLevel (string) --
A compliance severity level for all approved patches in a patch baseline.
ApproveAfterDays (integer) --
The number of days after the release date of each patch matched by the rule that the patch is marked as approved in the patch baseline. For example, a value of 7 means that patches are approved seven days after they are released.
This parameter is marked as Required: No, but your request must include a value for either ApproveAfterDays or ApproveUntilDate.
Not supported for Debian Server or Ubuntu Server.
ApproveUntilDate (string) --
The cutoff date for auto approval of released patches. Any patches released on or before this date are installed automatically.
Enter dates in the format YYYY-MM-DD. For example, 2024-12-31.
This parameter is marked as Required: No, but your request must include a value for either ApproveUntilDate or ApproveAfterDays.
Not supported for Debian Server or Ubuntu Server.
EnableNonSecurity (boolean) --
For managed nodes identified by the approval rule filters, enables a patch baseline to apply non-security updates available in the specified repository. The default value is false. Applies to Linux managed nodes only.
list
A list of explicitly approved patches for the baseline.
For information about accepted formats for lists of approved patches and rejected patches, see Package name formats for approved and rejected patch lists in the Amazon Web Services Systems Manager User Guide.
(string) --
string
Defines the compliance level for approved patches. When an approved patch is reported as missing, this value describes the severity of the compliance violation. The default value is UNSPECIFIED.
boolean
Indicates whether the list of approved patches includes non-security updates that should be applied to the managed nodes. The default value is false. Applies to Linux managed nodes only.
list
A list of explicitly rejected patches for the baseline.
For information about accepted formats for lists of approved patches and rejected patches, see Package name formats for approved and rejected patch lists in the Amazon Web Services Systems Manager User Guide.
(string) --
string
The action for Patch Manager to take on patches included in the RejectedPackages list.
ALLOW_AS_DEPENDENCY
Linux and macOS: A package in the rejected patches list is installed only if it is a dependency of another package. It is considered compliant with the patch baseline, and its status is reported as INSTALLED_OTHER. This is the default action if no option is specified.
Windows Server: Windows Server doesn't support the concept of package dependencies. If a package in the rejected patches list and already installed on the node, its status is reported as INSTALLED_OTHER. Any package not already installed on the node is skipped. This is the default action if no option is specified.
BLOCK
All OSs: Packages in the rejected patches list, and packages that include them as dependencies, aren't installed by Patch Manager under any circumstances. If a package was installed before it was added to the rejected patches list, or is installed outside of Patch Manager afterward, it's considered noncompliant with the patch baseline and its status is reported as INSTALLED_REJECTED.
string
A description of the patch baseline.
list
Information about the patches to use to update the managed nodes, including target operating systems and source repositories. Applies to Linux managed nodes only.
(dict) --
Information about the patches to use to update the managed nodes, including target operating systems and source repository. Applies to Linux managed nodes only.
Name (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The name specified to identify the patch source.
Products (list) -- [REQUIRED]
The specific operating system versions a patch repository applies to, such as "Ubuntu16.04", "AmazonLinux2016.09", "RedhatEnterpriseLinux7.2" or "Suse12.7". For lists of supported product values, see PatchFilter.
(string) --
Configuration (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The value of the yum repo configuration. For example:
[main]
name=MyCustomRepository
baseurl=https://my-custom-repository
enabled=1
string
Indicates the status you want to assign to security patches that are available but not approved because they don't meet the installation criteria specified in the patch baseline.
Example scenario: Security patches that you might want installed can be skipped if you have specified a long period to wait after a patch is released before installation. If an update to the patch is released during your specified waiting period, the waiting period for installing the patch starts over. If the waiting period is too long, multiple versions of the patch could be released but never installed.
Supported for Windows Server managed nodes only.
string
User-provided idempotency token.
This field is autopopulated if not provided.
list
Optional metadata that you assign to a resource. Tags enable you to categorize a resource in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, or environment. For example, you might want to tag a patch baseline to identify the severity level of patches it specifies and the operating system family it applies to. In this case, you could specify the following key-value pairs:
Key=PatchSeverity,Value=Critical
Key=OS,Value=Windows
(dict) --
Metadata that you assign to your Amazon Web Services resources. Tags enable you to categorize your resources in different ways, for example, by purpose, owner, or environment. In Amazon Web Services Systems Manager, you can apply tags to Systems Manager documents (SSM documents), managed nodes, maintenance windows, parameters, patch baselines, OpsItems, and OpsMetadata.
Key (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The name of the tag.
Value (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The value of the tag.

GlobalFilters (dict) --
A set of patch filters, typically used for approval rules.
PatchFilters (list) -- [REQUIRED]
The set of patch filters that make up the group.
(dict) --
Defines which patches should be included in a patch baseline.
A patch filter consists of a key and a set of values. The filter key is a patch property. For example, the available filter keys for WINDOWS are PATCH_SET, PRODUCT, PRODUCT_FAMILY, CLASSIFICATION, and MSRC_SEVERITY.
The filter values define a matching criterion for the patch property indicated by the key. For example, if the filter key is PRODUCT and the filter values are ["Office 2013", "Office 2016"], then the filter accepts all patches where product name is either "Office 2013" or "Office 2016". The filter values can be exact values for the patch property given as a key, or a wildcard (*), which matches all values.
You can view lists of valid values for the patch properties by running the DescribePatchProperties command. For information about which patch properties can be used with each major operating system, see DescribePatchProperties.

string
The action for Patch Manager to take on patches included in the RejectedPackages list.
ALLOW_AS_DEPENDENCY
Linux and macOS: A package in the rejected patches list is installed only if it is a dependency of another package. It is considered compliant with the patch baseline, and its status is reported as INSTALLED_OTHER. This is the default action if no option is specified.
Windows Server: Windows Server doesn't support the concept of package dependencies. If a package in the rejected patches list and already installed on the node, its status is reported as INSTALLED_OTHER. Any package not already installed on the node is skipped. This is the default action if no option is specified.
BLOCK
All OSs: Packages in the rejected patches list, and packages that include them as dependencies, aren't installed by Patch Manager under any circumstances. If a package was installed before it was added to the rejected patches list, or is installed outside of Patch Manager afterward, it's considered noncompliant with the patch baseline and its status is reported as INSTALLED_REJECTED.

string
Indicates the status to be assigned to security patches that are available but not approved because they don't meet the installation criteria specified in the patch baseline.
Example scenario: Security patches that you might want installed can be skipped if you have specified a long period to wait after a patch is released before installation. If an update to the patch is released during your specified waiting period, the waiting period for installing the patch starts over. If the waiting period is too long, multiple versions of the patch could be released but never installed.
Supported for Windows Server managed nodes only.
boolean
If True, then all fields that are required by the CreatePatchBaseline operation are also required for this API request. Optional fields that aren't specified are set to null.

Response Structure
(dict) --
BaselineId (string) --
The ID of the deleted patch baseline.
Name (string) --
The name of the patch baseline.
OperatingSystem (string) --
The operating system rule used by the updated patch baseline.
GlobalFilters (dict) --
A set of global filters used to exclude patches from the baseline.
PatchFilters (list) --
The set of patch filters that make up the group.
(dict) --
Defines which patches should be included in a patch baseline.
A patch filter consists of a key and a set of values. The filter key is a patch property. For example, the available filter keys for WINDOWS are PATCH_SET, PRODUCT, PRODUCT_FAMILY, CLASSIFICATION, and MSRC_SEVERITY.
The filter values define a matching criterion for the patch property indicated by the key. For example, if the filter key is PRODUCT and the filter values are ["Office 2013", "Office 2016"], then the filter accepts all patches where product name is either "Office 2013" or "Office 2016". The filter values can be exact values for the patch property given as a key, or a wildcard (*), which matches all values.
You can view lists of valid values for the patch properties by running the DescribePatchProperties command. For information about which patch properties can be used with each major operating system, see DescribePatchProperties.
Key (string) --

(string) --
ComplianceLevel (string) --
A compliance severity level for all approved patches in a patch baseline.
ApproveAfterDays (integer) --
The number of days after the release date of each patch matched by the rule that the patch is marked as approved in the patch baseline. For example, a value of 7 means that patches are approved seven days after they are released.
This parameter is marked as Required: No, but your request must include a value for either ApproveAfterDays or ApproveUntilDate.
Not supported for Debian Server or Ubuntu Server.
ApproveUntilDate (string) --
The cutoff date for auto approval of released patches. Any patches released on or before this date are installed automatically.
Enter dates in the format YYYY-MM-DD. For example, 2024-12-31.
This parameter is marked as Required: No, but your request must include a value for either ApproveUntilDate or ApproveAfterDays.
Not supported for Debian Server or Ubuntu Server.
EnableNonSecurity (boolean) --
For managed nodes identified by the approval rule filters, enables a patch baseline to apply non-security updates available in the specified repository. The default value is false. Applies to Linux managed nodes only.

(string) --
ApprovedPatchesComplianceLevel (string) --
The compliance severity level assigned to the patch baseline after the update completed.
ApprovedPatchesEnableNonSecurity (boolean) --
Indicates whether the list of approved patches includes non-security updates that should be applied to the managed nodes. The default value is false. Applies to Linux managed nodes only.
RejectedPatches (list) --
A list of explicitly rejected patches for the baseline.
(string) --
RejectedPatchesAction (string) --

ModifiedDate (datetime) --
The date when the patch baseline was last modified.
Description (string) --
A description of the patch baseline.
Sources (list) --
Information about the patches to use to update the managed nodes, including target operating systems and source repositories. Applies to Linux managed nodes only.
