Changes (request, response)
Request
{'AutomationTargetParameterName': 'string'}
Response
{'AssociationDescription': {'AutomationTargetParameterName': 'string'}}

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

When you associate a document with one or more instances using instance IDs or tags, 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 Systems Manager 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.

type Parameters

dict

param Parameters

The parameters for the documents runtime configuration.

  • (string) --

    • (list) --

      • (string) --

type Targets

list

param Targets

The targets (either instances or tags) for the association.

  • (dict) --

    An array of search criteria that targets instances using a Key,Value combination that you specify. Targets is required if you don't provide one or more instance IDs in the call.

    • Key (string) --

      User-defined criteria for sending commands that target instances that meet the criteria. Key can be tag:<Amazon EC2 tag> or InstanceIds. For more information about how to send commands that target instances using Key,Value parameters, see Targeting Multiple Instances in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide .

    • Values (list) --

      User-defined criteria that maps to Key. For example, if you specified tag:ServerRole, you could specify value:WebServer to execute a command on instances that include Amazon EC2 tags of ServerRole,WebServer. For more information about how to send commands that target instances using Key,Value parameters, see Sending Commands to a Fleet in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide .

      • (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 Amazon S3 bucket where you want to store the output details of the request.

  • S3Location (dict) --

    An Amazon 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 Amazon S3 bucket region.

    • OutputS3BucketName (string) --

      The name of the Amazon S3 bucket.

    • OutputS3KeyPrefix (string) --

      The Amazon 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 execute an association while Systems Manager is executing 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.

rtype

dict

returns

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.

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 execute an association while Systems Manager is executing 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.
