DESCRIPTION

AWS Config

AWS Config provides a way to keep track of the configurations of all the AWS resources associated with your AWS account. You can use AWS Config to get the current and historical configurations of each AWS resource and also to get information about the relationship between the resources. An AWS resource can be an Amazon Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance, an Elastic Block Store (EBS) volume, an Elastic network Interface (ENI), or a security group. For a complete list of resources currently supported by AWS Config, see Supported AWS Resources.

You can access and manage AWS Config through the AWS Management Console, the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), the AWS Config API, or the AWS SDKs for AWS Config

This reference guide contains documentation for the AWS Config API and the AWS CLI commands that you can use to manage AWS Config.

The AWS Config API uses the Signature Version 4 protocol for signing requests. For more information about how to sign a request with this protocol, see Signature Version 4 Signing Process.

For detailed information about AWS Config features and their associated actions or commands, as well as how to work with AWS Management Console, see What Is AWS Config? in the AWS Config Developer Guide.

METHODS

DeleteConfigRule(ConfigRuleName => Str)

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::DeleteConfigRule

Returns: nothing

  Deletes the specified AWS Config rule and all of its evaluation
results.

AWS Config sets the state of a rule to DELETING until the deletion is complete. You cannot update a rule while it is in this state. If you make a PutConfigRule or DeleteConfigRule request for the rule, you will receive a ResourceInUseException.

You can check the state of a rule by using the DescribeConfigRules request.

DeleteConfigurationRecorder(ConfigurationRecorderName => Str)

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::DeleteConfigurationRecorder

Returns: nothing

  Deletes the configuration recorder.

After the configuration recorder is deleted, AWS Config will not record resource configuration changes until you create a new configuration recorder.

This action does not delete the configuration information that was previously recorded. You will be able to access the previously recorded information by using the GetResourceConfigHistory action, but you will not be able to access this information in the AWS Config console until you create a new configuration recorder.

DeleteDeliveryChannel(DeliveryChannelName => Str)

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::DeleteDeliveryChannel

Returns: nothing

  Deletes the delivery channel.

Before you can delete the delivery channel, you must stop the configuration recorder by using the StopConfigurationRecorder action.

DeleteEvaluationResults(ConfigRuleName => Str)

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::DeleteEvaluationResults

Returns: a Paws::Config::DeleteEvaluationResultsResponse instance

  Deletes the evaluation results for the specified Config rule. You can
specify one Config rule per request. After you delete the evaluation
results, you can call the StartConfigRulesEvaluation API to start
evaluating your AWS resources against the rule.

DeliverConfigSnapshot(DeliveryChannelName => Str)

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::DeliverConfigSnapshot

Returns: a Paws::Config::DeliverConfigSnapshotResponse instance

  Schedules delivery of a configuration snapshot to the Amazon S3 bucket
in the specified delivery channel. After the delivery has started, AWS
Config sends following notifications using an Amazon SNS topic that you
have specified.

Notification of starting the delivery.
Notification of delivery completed, if the delivery was successfully completed.
Notification of delivery failure, if the delivery failed to complete.

DescribeComplianceByConfigRule([ComplianceTypes => ArrayRef[Str|Undef], ConfigRuleNames => ArrayRef[Str|Undef], NextToken => Str])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::DescribeComplianceByConfigRule

Returns: a Paws::Config::DescribeComplianceByConfigRuleResponse instance

  Indicates whether the specified AWS Config rules are compliant. If a
rule is noncompliant, this action returns the number of AWS resources
that do not comply with the rule.

A rule is compliant if all of the evaluated resources comply with it, and it is noncompliant if any of these resources do not comply.

If AWS Config has no current evaluation results for the rule, it returns INSUFFICIENT_DATA. This result might indicate one of the following conditions:

AWS Config has never invoked an evaluation for the rule. To check whether it has, use the DescribeConfigRuleEvaluationStatus action to get the LastSuccessfulInvocationTime and LastFailedInvocationTime.
The rule's AWS Lambda function is failing to send evaluation results to AWS Config. Verify that the role that you assigned to your configuration recorder includes the config:PutEvaluations permission. If the rule is a custom rule, verify that the AWS Lambda execution role includes the config:PutEvaluations permission.
The rule's AWS Lambda function has returned NOT_APPLICABLE for all evaluation results. This can occur if the resources were deleted or removed from the rule's scope.

DescribeComplianceByResource([ComplianceTypes => ArrayRef[Str|Undef], Limit => Int, NextToken => Str, ResourceId => Str, ResourceType => Str])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::DescribeComplianceByResource

Returns: a Paws::Config::DescribeComplianceByResourceResponse instance

  Indicates whether the specified AWS resources are compliant. If a
resource is noncompliant, this action returns the number of AWS Config
rules that the resource does not comply with.

A resource is compliant if it complies with all the AWS Config rules that evaluate it. It is noncompliant if it does not comply with one or more of these rules.

If AWS Config has no current evaluation results for the resource, it returns INSUFFICIENT_DATA. This result might indicate one of the following conditions about the rules that evaluate the resource:

AWS Config has never invoked an evaluation for the rule. To check whether it has, use the DescribeConfigRuleEvaluationStatus action to get the LastSuccessfulInvocationTime and LastFailedInvocationTime.
The rule's AWS Lambda function is failing to send evaluation results to AWS Config. Verify that the role that you assigned to your configuration recorder includes the config:PutEvaluations permission. If the rule is a custom rule, verify that the AWS Lambda execution role includes the config:PutEvaluations permission.
The rule's AWS Lambda function has returned NOT_APPLICABLE for all evaluation results. This can occur if the resources were deleted or removed from the rule's scope.

DescribeConfigRuleEvaluationStatus([ConfigRuleNames => ArrayRef[Str|Undef], Limit => Int, NextToken => Str])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::DescribeConfigRuleEvaluationStatus

Returns: a Paws::Config::DescribeConfigRuleEvaluationStatusResponse instance

  Returns status information for each of your AWS managed Config rules.
The status includes information such as the last time AWS Config
invoked the rule, the last time AWS Config failed to invoke the rule,
and the related error for the last failure.

DescribeConfigRules([ConfigRuleNames => ArrayRef[Str|Undef], NextToken => Str])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::DescribeConfigRules

DescribeDeliveryChannels([DeliveryChannelNames => ArrayRef[Str|Undef]])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::DescribeDeliveryChannels

Returns: a Paws::Config::DescribeDeliveryChannelsResponse instance

  Returns details about the specified delivery channel. If a delivery
channel is not specified, this action returns the details of all
delivery channels associated with the account.

Currently, you can specify only one delivery channel per region in your account.

DescribeDeliveryChannelStatus([DeliveryChannelNames => ArrayRef[Str|Undef]])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::DescribeDeliveryChannelStatus

Returns: a Paws::Config::DescribeDeliveryChannelStatusResponse instance

  Returns the current status of the specified delivery channel. If a
delivery channel is not specified, this action returns the current
status of all delivery channels associated with the account.

Currently, you can specify only one delivery channel per region in your account.

GetComplianceDetailsByConfigRule(ConfigRuleName => Str, [ComplianceTypes => ArrayRef[Str|Undef], Limit => Int, NextToken => Str])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::GetComplianceDetailsByConfigRule

Returns: a Paws::Config::GetComplianceDetailsByConfigRuleResponse instance

  Returns the evaluation results for the specified AWS Config rule. The
results indicate which AWS resources were evaluated by the rule, when
each resource was last evaluated, and whether each resource complies
with the rule.

GetComplianceDetailsByResource(ResourceId => Str, ResourceType => Str, [ComplianceTypes => ArrayRef[Str|Undef], NextToken => Str])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::GetComplianceDetailsByResource

Returns: a Paws::Config::GetComplianceDetailsByResourceResponse instance

  Returns the evaluation results for the specified AWS resource. The
results indicate which AWS Config rules were used to evaluate the
resource, when each rule was last used, and whether the resource
complies with each rule.

GetComplianceSummaryByConfigRule( => )

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::GetComplianceSummaryByConfigRule

Returns: a Paws::Config::GetComplianceSummaryByConfigRuleResponse instance

  Returns the number of AWS Config rules that are compliant and
noncompliant, up to a maximum of 25 for each.

GetComplianceSummaryByResourceType([ResourceTypes => ArrayRef[Str|Undef]])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::GetComplianceSummaryByResourceType

Returns: a Paws::Config::GetComplianceSummaryByResourceTypeResponse instance

  Returns the number of resources that are compliant and the number that
are noncompliant. You can specify one or more resource types to get
these numbers for each resource type. The maximum number returned is
100.

GetResourceConfigHistory(ResourceId => Str, ResourceType => Str, [ChronologicalOrder => Str, EarlierTime => Str, LaterTime => Str, Limit => Int, NextToken => Str])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::GetResourceConfigHistory

Returns: a Paws::Config::GetResourceConfigHistoryResponse instance

  Returns a list of configuration items for the specified resource. The
list contains details about each state of the resource during the
specified time interval.

The response is paginated, and by default, AWS Config returns a limit of 10 configuration items per page. You can customize this number with the limit parameter. The response includes a nextToken string, and to get the next page of results, run the request again and enter this string for the nextToken parameter.

Each call to the API is limited to span a duration of seven days. It is likely that the number of records returned is smaller than the specified limit. In such cases, you can make another call, using the nextToken.

ListDiscoveredResources(ResourceType => Str, [IncludeDeletedResources => Bool, Limit => Int, NextToken => Str, ResourceIds => ArrayRef[Str|Undef], ResourceName => Str])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::ListDiscoveredResources

Returns: a Paws::Config::ListDiscoveredResourcesResponse instance

  Accepts a resource type and returns a list of resource identifiers for
the resources of that type. A resource identifier includes the resource
type, ID, and (if available) the custom resource name. The results
consist of resources that AWS Config has discovered, including those
that AWS Config is not currently recording. You can narrow the results
to include only resources that have specific resource IDs or a resource
name.

You can specify either resource IDs or a resource name but not both in the same request.

The response is paginated, and by default AWS Config lists 100 resource identifiers on each page. You can customize this number with the limit parameter. The response includes a nextToken string, and to get the next page of results, run the request again and enter this string for the nextToken parameter.

PutConfigRule(ConfigRule => Paws::Config::ConfigRule)

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::PutConfigRule

Returns: nothing

  Adds or updates an AWS Config rule for evaluating whether your AWS
resources comply with your desired configurations.

You can use this action for custom Config rules and AWS managed Config rules. A custom Config rule is a rule that you develop and maintain. An AWS managed Config rule is a customizable, predefined rule that AWS Config provides.

If you are adding a new custom Config rule, you must first create the AWS Lambda function that the rule invokes to evaluate your resources. When you use the PutConfigRule action to add the rule to AWS Config, you must specify the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) that AWS Lambda assigns to the function. Specify the ARN for the SourceIdentifier key. This key is part of the Source object, which is part of the ConfigRule object.

If you are adding a new AWS managed Config rule, specify the rule's identifier for the SourceIdentifier key. To reference AWS managed Config rule identifiers, see Using AWS Managed Config Rules.

For any new rule that you add, specify the ConfigRuleName in the ConfigRule object. Do not specify the ConfigRuleArn or the ConfigRuleId. These values are generated by AWS Config for new rules.

If you are updating a rule that you added previously, you can specify the rule by ConfigRuleName, ConfigRuleId, or ConfigRuleArn in the ConfigRule data type that you use in this request.

The maximum number of rules that AWS Config supports is 50.

For more information about requesting a rule limit increase, see AWS Config Limits in the AWS General Reference Guide.

For more information about developing and using AWS Config rules, see Evaluating AWS Resource Configurations with AWS Config in the AWS Config Developer Guide.

PutConfigurationRecorder(ConfigurationRecorder => Paws::Config::ConfigurationRecorder)

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::PutConfigurationRecorder

Returns: nothing

  Creates a new configuration recorder to record the selected resource
configurations.

You can use this action to change the role roleARN and/or the recordingGroup of an existing recorder. To change the role, call the action on the existing configuration recorder and specify a role.

Currently, you can specify only one configuration recorder per region in your account.

If ConfigurationRecorder does not have the recordingGroup parameter specified, the default is to record all supported resource types.

PutDeliveryChannel(DeliveryChannel => Paws::Config::DeliveryChannel)

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::PutDeliveryChannel

Returns: nothing

  Creates a delivery channel object to deliver configuration information
to an Amazon S3 bucket and Amazon SNS topic.

Before you can create a delivery channel, you must create a configuration recorder.

You can use this action to change the Amazon S3 bucket or an Amazon SNS topic of the existing delivery channel. To change the Amazon S3 bucket or an Amazon SNS topic, call this action and specify the changed values for the S3 bucket and the SNS topic. If you specify a different value for either the S3 bucket or the SNS topic, this action will keep the existing value for the parameter that is not changed.

You can have only one delivery channel per region in your account.

PutEvaluations(ResultToken => Str, [Evaluations => ArrayRef[Paws::Config::Evaluation]])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::PutEvaluations

Returns: a Paws::Config::PutEvaluationsResponse instance

  Used by an AWS Lambda function to deliver evaluation results to AWS
Config. This action is required in every AWS Lambda function that is
invoked by an AWS Config rule.

StartConfigRulesEvaluation([ConfigRuleNames => ArrayRef[Str|Undef]])

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::StartConfigRulesEvaluation

Returns: a Paws::Config::StartConfigRulesEvaluationResponse instance

  Runs an on-demand evaluation for the specified Config rules against the
last known configuration state of the resources. Use
C<StartConfigRulesEvaluation> when you want to test a rule that you
updated is working as expected. C<StartConfigRulesEvaluation> does not
re-record the latest configuration state for your resources; it re-runs
an evaluation against the last known state of your resources.

You can specify up to 25 Config rules per request.

An existing StartConfigRulesEvaluation call must complete for the specified rules before you can call the API again. If you chose to have AWS Config stream to an Amazon SNS topic, you will receive a ConfigRuleEvaluationStarted notification when the evaluation starts.

You don't need to call the StartConfigRulesEvaluation API to run an evaluation for a new rule. When you create a new rule, AWS Config automatically evaluates your resources against the rule.

The StartConfigRulesEvaluation API is useful if you want to run on-demand evaluations, such as the following example:

You have a custom rule that evaluates your IAM resources every 24 hours.
You update your Lambda function to add additional conditions to your rule.
Instead of waiting for the next periodic evaluation, you call the StartConfigRulesEvaluation API.
AWS Config invokes your Lambda function and evaluates your IAM resources.
Your custom rule will still run periodic evaluations every 24 hours.

StartConfigurationRecorder(ConfigurationRecorderName => Str)

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::StartConfigurationRecorder

Returns: nothing

  Starts recording configurations of the AWS resources you have selected
to record in your AWS account.

You must have created at least one delivery channel to successfully start the configuration recorder.

StopConfigurationRecorder(ConfigurationRecorderName => Str)

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::Config::StopConfigurationRecorder

Returns: nothing

  Stops recording configurations of the AWS resources you have selected
to record in your AWS account.
