This is the AWS WAF Regional Classic API Reference for using AWS WAF Classic with the AWS resources, Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) Application Load Balancers and API Gateway APIs. The AWS WAF Classic actions and data types listed in the reference are available for protecting Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) Application Load Balancers and API Gateway APIs. You can use these actions and data types by means of the endpoints listed in AWS Regions and Endpoints . This guide is for developers who need detailed information about the AWS WAF Classic API actions, data types, and errors. For detailed information about AWS WAF Classic features and an overview of how to use the AWS WAF Classic API, see the AWS WAF Classic in the developer guide.

Response Structure
(dict) --
ByteMatchSet (dict) --
A ByteMatchSet that contains no ByteMatchTuple objects.
ByteMatchSetId (string) --
The ByteMatchSetId for a ByteMatchSet . You use ByteMatchSetId to get information about a ByteMatchSet (see GetByteMatchSet ), update a ByteMatchSet (see UpdateByteMatchSet ), insert a ByteMatchSet into a Rule or delete one from a Rule (see UpdateRule ), and delete a ByteMatchSet from AWS WAF (see DeleteByteMatchSet ).
ByteMatchSetId is returned by CreateByteMatchSet and by ListByteMatchSets .
Name (string) --
A friendly name or description of the ByteMatchSet . You can't change Name after you create a ByteMatchSet .
ByteMatchTuples (list) --
Specifies the bytes (typically a string that corresponds with ASCII characters) that you want AWS WAF to search for in web requests, the location in requests that you want AWS WAF to search, and other settings.
(dict) --
Note
This is AWS WAF Classic documentation. For more information, see AWS WAF Classic in the developer guide.
For the latest version of AWS WAF , use the AWS WAFV2 API and see the AWS WAF Developer Guide . With the latest version, AWS WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use.
The bytes (typically a string that corresponds with ASCII characters) that you want AWS WAF to search for in web requests, the location in requests that you want AWS WAF to search, and other settings.
FieldToMatch (dict) --
The part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to search, such as a specified header or a query string. For more information, see FieldToMatch .
Type (string) --
The part of the web request that you want AWS WAF to search for a specified string. Parts of a request that you can search include the following:
Data (string) --
When the value of Type is HEADER , enter the name of the header that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, User-Agent or Referer . The name of the header is not case sensitive.
When the value of Type is SINGLE_QUERY_ARG , enter the name of the parameter that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, UserName or SalesRegion . The parameter name is not case sensitive.
If the value of Type is any other value, omit Data .
TargetString (bytes) --
The value that you want AWS WAF to search for. AWS WAF searches for the specified string in the part of web requests that you specified in FieldToMatch . The maximum length of the value is 50 bytes.
Valid values depend on the values that you specified for FieldToMatch :
If TargetString includes alphabetic characters A-Z and a-z, note that the value is case sensitive.
If you're using the AWS WAF API
Specify a base64-encoded version of the value. The maximum length of the value before you base64-encode it is 50 bytes.
For example, suppose the value of Type is HEADER and the value of Data is User-Agent . If you want to search the User-Agent header for the value BadBot , you base64-encode BadBot using MIME base64-encoding and include the resulting value, QmFkQm90 , in the value of TargetString .
If you're using the AWS CLI or one of the AWS SDKs
The value that you want AWS WAF to search for. The SDK automatically base64 encodes the value.
TextTransformation (string) --
Text transformations eliminate some of the unusual formatting that attackers use in web requests in an effort to bypass AWS WAF. If you specify a transformation, AWS WAF performs the transformation on FieldToMatch before inspecting it for a match.
You can only specify a single type of TextTransformation.
CMD_LINE
When you're concerned that attackers are injecting an operating system command line command and using unusual formatting to disguise some or all of the command, use this option to perform the following transformations:
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE
Use this option to replace the following characters with a space character (decimal 32):
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE also replaces multiple spaces with one space.
HTML_ENTITY_DECODE
Use this option to replace HTML-encoded characters with unencoded characters. HTML_ENTITY_DECODE performs the following operations:
LOWERCASE
Use this option to convert uppercase letters (A-Z) to lowercase (a-z).
URL_DECODE
Use this option to decode a URL-encoded value.
NONE
Specify NONE if you don't want to perform any text transformations.
PositionalConstraint (string) --
Within the portion of a web request that you want to search (for example, in the query string, if any), specify where you want AWS WAF to search. Valid values include the following:
CONTAINS
The specified part of the web request must include the value of TargetString , but the location doesn't matter.
CONTAINS_WORD
The specified part of the web request must include the value of TargetString , and TargetString must contain only alphanumeric characters or underscore (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, or _). In addition, TargetString must be a word, which means one of the following:
EXACTLY
The value of the specified part of the web request must exactly match the value of TargetString .
STARTS_WITH
The value of TargetString must appear at the beginning of the specified part of the web request.
ENDS_WITH
The value of TargetString must appear at the end of the specified part of the web request.
ChangeToken (string) --
The ChangeToken that you used to submit the CreateByteMatchSet request. You can also use this value to query the status of the request. For more information, see GetChangeTokenStatus .
Exceptions
Note

Creates a RateBasedRule . The RateBasedRule contains a RateLimit , which specifies the maximum number of requests that AWS WAF allows from a specified IP address in a five-minute period. The RateBasedRule also contains the IPSet objects, ByteMatchSet objects, and other predicates that identify the requests that you want to count or block if these requests exceed the RateLimit .
If you add more than one predicate to a RateBasedRule , a request not only must exceed the RateLimit , but it also must match all the conditions to be counted or blocked. For example, suppose you add the following to a RateBasedRule :
Further, you specify a RateLimit of 1,000.
You then add the RateBasedRule to a WebACL and specify that you want to block requests that meet the conditions in the rule. For a request to be blocked, it must come from the IP address 192.0.2.44 and the User-Agent header in the request must contain the value BadBot . Further, requests that match these two conditions must be received at a rate of more than 1,000 requests every five minutes. If both conditions are met and the rate is exceeded, AWS WAF blocks the requests. If the rate drops below 1,000 for a five-minute period, AWS WAF no longer blocks the requests.
As a second example, suppose you want to limit requests to a particular page on your site. To do this, you could add the following to a RateBasedRule :
Further, you specify a RateLimit of 1,000.
By adding this RateBasedRule to a WebACL , you could limit requests to your login page without affecting the rest of your site.
To create and configure a RateBasedRule , perform the following steps:

When the value of Type is HEADER , enter the name of the header that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, User-Agent or Referer . The name of the header is not case sensitive.
When the value of Type is SINGLE_QUERY_ARG , enter the name of the parameter that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, UserName or SalesRegion . The parameter name is not case sensitive.
If the value of Type is any other value, omit Data .
TextTransformation (string) --
Text transformations eliminate some of the unusual formatting that attackers use in web requests in an effort to bypass AWS WAF. If you specify a transformation, AWS WAF performs the transformation on RegexPatternSet before inspecting a request for a match.
You can only specify a single type of TextTransformation.
CMD_LINE
When you're concerned that attackers are injecting an operating system commandline command and using unusual formatting to disguise some or all of the command, use this option to perform the following transformations:
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE
Use this option to replace the following characters with a space character (decimal 32):
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE also replaces multiple spaces with one space.
HTML_ENTITY_DECODE
Use this option to replace HTML-encoded characters with unencoded characters. HTML_ENTITY_DECODE performs the following operations:
LOWERCASE
Use this option to convert uppercase letters (A-Z) to lowercase (a-z).
URL_DECODE
Use this option to decode a URL-encoded value.
NONE
Specify NONE if you don't want to perform any text transformations.
RegexPatternSetId (string) --
The RegexPatternSetId for a RegexPatternSet . You use RegexPatternSetId to get information about a RegexPatternSet (see GetRegexPatternSet ), update a RegexPatternSet (see UpdateRegexPatternSet ), insert a RegexPatternSet into a RegexMatchSet or delete one from a RegexMatchSet (see UpdateRegexMatchSet ), and delete an RegexPatternSet from AWS WAF (see DeleteRegexPatternSet ).
RegexPatternSetId is returned by CreateRegexPatternSet and by ListRegexPatternSets .
ChangeToken (string) --
The ChangeToken that you used to submit the CreateRegexMatchSet request. You can also use this value to query the status of the request. For more information, see GetChangeTokenStatus .

Use this option to convert uppercase letters (A-Z) to lowercase (a-z).
URL_DECODE
Use this option to decode a URL-encoded value.
ComparisonOperator (string) --
The type of comparison you want AWS WAF to perform. AWS WAF uses this in combination with the provided Size and FieldToMatch to build an expression in the form of "Size ComparisonOperator size in bytes of FieldToMatch ". If that expression is true, the SizeConstraint is considered to match.
EQ : Used to test if the Size is equal to the size of the FieldToMatch
NE : Used to test if the Size is not equal to the size of the FieldToMatch
LE : Used to test if the Size is less than or equal to the size of the FieldToMatch
LT : Used to test if the Size is strictly less than the size of the FieldToMatch
GE : Used to test if the Size is greater than or equal to the size of the FieldToMatch
GT : Used to test if the Size is strictly greater than the size of the FieldToMatch
Size (integer) --
The size in bytes that you want AWS WAF to compare against the size of the specified FieldToMatch . AWS WAF uses this in combination with ComparisonOperator and FieldToMatch to build an expression in the form of "Size ComparisonOperator size in bytes of FieldToMatch ". If that expression is true, the SizeConstraint is considered to match.
Valid values for size are 0 - 21474836480 bytes (0 - 20 GB).
If you specify URI for the value of Type , the / in the URI counts as one character. For example, the URI /logo.jpg is nine characters long.
ChangeToken (string) --
The ChangeToken that you used to submit the CreateSizeConstraintSet request. You can also use this value to query the status of the request. For more information, see GetChangeTokenStatus .

Response Structure
(dict) --
WebACL (dict) --
The WebACL returned in the CreateWebACL response.
WebACLId (string) --
A unique identifier for a WebACL . You use WebACLId to get information about a WebACL (see GetWebACL ), update a WebACL (see UpdateWebACL ), and delete a WebACL from AWS WAF (see DeleteWebACL ).
WebACLId is returned by CreateWebACL and by ListWebACLs .
Name (string) --
A friendly name or description of the WebACL . You can't change the name of a WebACL after you create it.
MetricName (string) --
A friendly name or description for the metrics for this WebACL . The name can contain only alphanumeric characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9), with maximum length 128 and minimum length one. It can't contain whitespace or metric names reserved for AWS WAF, including "All" and "Default_Action." You can't change MetricName after you create the WebACL .
DefaultAction (dict) --
The action to perform if none of the Rules contained in the WebACL match. The action is specified by the WafAction object.
Type (string) --
Specifies how you want AWS WAF to respond to requests that match the settings in a Rule . Valid settings include the following:
Rules (list) --
An array that contains the action for each Rule in a WebACL , the priority of the Rule , and the ID of the Rule .
(dict) --
Note
This is AWS WAF Classic documentation. For more information, see AWS WAF Classic in the developer guide.
For the latest version of AWS WAF , use the AWS WAFV2 API and see the AWS WAF Developer Guide . With the latest version, AWS WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use.
The ActivatedRule object in an UpdateWebACL request specifies a Rule that you want to insert or delete, the priority of the Rule in the WebACL , and the action that you want AWS WAF to take when a web request matches the Rule (ALLOW , BLOCK , or COUNT ).
To specify whether to insert or delete a Rule , use the Action parameter in the WebACLUpdate data type.
Priority (integer) --
Specifies the order in which the Rules in a WebACL are evaluated. Rules with a lower value for Priority are evaluated before Rules with a higher value. The value must be a unique integer. If you add multiple Rules to a WebACL , the values don't need to be consecutive.
RuleId (string) --
The RuleId for a Rule . You use RuleId to get more information about a Rule (see GetRule ), update a Rule (see UpdateRule ), insert a Rule into a WebACL or delete a one from a WebACL (see UpdateWebACL ), or delete a Rule from AWS WAF (see DeleteRule ).
RuleId is returned by CreateRule and by ListRules .
Action (dict) --
Specifies the action that CloudFront or AWS WAF takes when a web request matches the conditions in the Rule . Valid values for Action include the following:
ActivatedRule|OverrideAction applies only when updating or adding a RuleGroup to a WebACL . In this case, you do not use ActivatedRule|Action . For all other update requests, ActivatedRule|Action is used instead of ActivatedRule|OverrideAction .
Type (string) --
Specifies how you want AWS WAF to respond to requests that match the settings in a Rule . Valid settings include the following:
OverrideAction (dict) --
Use the OverrideAction to test your RuleGroup .
Any rule in a RuleGroup can potentially block a request. If you set the OverrideAction to None , the RuleGroup will block a request if any individual rule in the RuleGroup matches the request and is configured to block that request. However if you first want to test the RuleGroup , set the OverrideAction to Count . The RuleGroup will then override any block action specified by individual rules contained within the group. Instead of blocking matching requests, those requests will be counted. You can view a record of counted requests using GetSampledRequests .
ActivatedRule|OverrideAction applies only when updating or adding a RuleGroup to a WebACL . In this case you do not use ActivatedRule|Action . For all other update requests, ActivatedRule|Action is used instead of ActivatedRule|OverrideAction .
Type (string) --
COUNT overrides the action specified by the individual rule within a RuleGroup . If set to NONE , the rule's action will take place.
Type (string) --
The rule type, either REGULAR , as defined by Rule , RATE_BASED , as defined by RateBasedRule , or GROUP , as defined by RuleGroup . The default is REGULAR. Although this field is optional, be aware that if you try to add a RATE_BASED rule to a web ACL without setting the type, the UpdateWebACL request will fail because the request tries to add a REGULAR rule with the specified ID, which does not exist.
ExcludedRules (list) --
An array of rules to exclude from a rule group. This is applicable only when the ActivatedRule refers to a RuleGroup .
Sometimes it is necessary to troubleshoot rule groups that are blocking traffic unexpectedly (false positives). One troubleshooting technique is to identify the specific rule within the rule group that is blocking the legitimate traffic and then disable (exclude) that particular rule. You can exclude rules from both your own rule groups and AWS Marketplace rule groups that have been associated with a web ACL.
Specifying ExcludedRules does not remove those rules from the rule group. Rather, it changes the action for the rules to COUNT . Therefore, requests that match an ExcludedRule are counted but not blocked. The RuleGroup owner will receive COUNT metrics for each ExcludedRule .
If you want to exclude rules from a rule group that is already associated with a web ACL, perform the following steps:

The rule to exclude from a rule group. This is applicable only when the ActivatedRule refers to a RuleGroup . The rule must belong to the RuleGroup that is specified by the ActivatedRule .
RuleId (string) --
The unique identifier for the rule to exclude from the rule group.
WebACLArn (string) --
Tha Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the web ACL.
ChangeToken (string) --
The ChangeToken that you used to submit the CreateWebACL request. You can also use this value to query the status of the request. For more information, see GetChangeTokenStatus .

Creates an AWS CloudFormation WAFV2 template for the specified web ACL in the specified Amazon S3 bucket. Then, in CloudFormation, you create a stack from the template, to create the web ACL and its resources in AWS WAFV2. Use this to migrate your AWS WAF Classic web ACL to the latest version of AWS WAF.
This is part of a larger migration procedure for web ACLs from AWS WAF Classic to the latest version of AWS WAF. For the full procedure, including caveats and manual steps to complete the migration and switch over to the new web ACL, see Migrating your AWS WAF Classic resources to AWS WAF in the AWS WAF Developer Guide .

Response Structure
Information about the ByteMatchSet that you specified in the GetByteMatchSet request. For more information, see the following topics:
The ByteMatchSetId for a ByteMatchSet . You use ByteMatchSetId to get information about a ByteMatchSet (see GetByteMatchSet ), update a ByteMatchSet (see UpdateByteMatchSet ), insert a ByteMatchSet into a Rule or delete one from a Rule (see UpdateRule ), and delete a ByteMatchSet from AWS WAF (see DeleteByteMatchSet ).
ByteMatchSetId is returned by CreateByteMatchSet and by ListByteMatchSets .
A friendly name or description of the ByteMatchSet . You can't change Name after you create a ByteMatchSet .
Specifies the bytes (typically a string that corresponds with ASCII characters) that you want AWS WAF to search for in web requests, the location in requests that you want AWS WAF to search, and other settings.
Note
This is AWS WAF Classic documentation. For more information, see AWS WAF Classic in the developer guide.
For the latest version of AWS WAF , use the AWS WAFV2 API and see the AWS WAF Developer Guide . With the latest version, AWS WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use.
The bytes (typically a string that corresponds with ASCII characters) that you want AWS WAF to search for in web requests, the location in requests that you want AWS WAF to search, and other settings.
The part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to search, such as a specified header or a query string. For more information, see FieldToMatch .
The part of the web request that you want AWS WAF to search for a specified string. Parts of a request that you can search include the following:
When the value of Type is HEADER , enter the name of the header that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, User-Agent or Referer . The name of the header is not case sensitive.
When the value of Type is SINGLE_QUERY_ARG , enter the name of the parameter that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, UserName or SalesRegion . The parameter name is not case sensitive.
If the value of Type is any other value, omit Data .
The value that you want AWS WAF to search for. AWS WAF searches for the specified string in the part of web requests that you specified in FieldToMatch . The maximum length of the value is 50 bytes.
Valid values depend on the values that you specified for FieldToMatch :
If TargetString includes alphabetic characters A-Z and a-z, note that the value is case sensitive.
If you're using the AWS WAF API
Specify a base64-encoded version of the value. The maximum length of the value before you base64-encode it is 50 bytes.
For example, suppose the value of Type is HEADER and the value of Data is User-Agent . If you want to search the User-Agent header for the value BadBot , you base64-encode BadBot using MIME base64-encoding and include the resulting value, QmFkQm90 , in the value of TargetString .
If you're using the AWS CLI or one of the AWS SDKs
The value that you want AWS WAF to search for. The SDK automatically base64 encodes the value.
Text transformations eliminate some of the unusual formatting that attackers use in web requests in an effort to bypass AWS WAF. If you specify a transformation, AWS WAF performs the transformation on FieldToMatch before inspecting it for a match.
You can only specify a single type of TextTransformation.
CMD_LINE
When you're concerned that attackers are injecting an operating system command line command and using unusual formatting to disguise some or all of the command, use this option to perform the following transformations:
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE
Use this option to replace the following characters with a space character (decimal 32):
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE also replaces multiple spaces with one space.HTML_ENTITY_DECODE
Use this option to replace HTML-encoded characters with unencoded characters. HTML_ENTITY_DECODE performs the following operations:
LOWERCASE
Use this option to convert uppercase letters (A-Z) to lowercase (a-z).
URL_DECODE
Use this option to decode a URL-encoded value.
NONE
Specify NONE if you don't want to perform any text transformations.
Within the portion of a web request that you want to search (for example, in the query string, if any), specify where you want AWS WAF to search. Valid values include the following:
CONTAINS
The specified part of the web request must include the value of TargetString , but the location doesn't matter.
CONTAINS_WORD
The specified part of the web request must include the value of TargetString , and TargetString must contain only alphanumeric characters or underscore (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, or _). In addition, TargetString must be a word, which means one of the following:
EXACTLY
The value of the specified part of the web request must exactly match the value of TargetString .
STARTS_WITH
The value of TargetString must appear at the beginning of the specified part of the web request.
ENDS_WITH
The value of TargetString must appear at the end of the specified part of the web request.
Exceptions
Examples
The following example returns the details of a byte match set with the ID exampleIDs3t-46da-4fdb-b8d5-abc321j569j5.

When you want to create, update, or delete AWS WAF objects, get a change token and include the change token in the create, update, or delete request. Change tokens ensure that your application doesn't submit conflicting requests to AWS WAF.
Each create, update, or delete request must use a unique change token. If your application submits a GetChangeToken request and then submits a second GetChangeToken request before submitting a create, update, or delete request, the second GetChangeToken request returns the same value as the first GetChangeToken request.
When you use a change token in a create, update, or delete request, the status of the change token changes to PENDING , which indicates that AWS WAF is propagating the change to all AWS WAF servers. Use GetChangeTokenStatus to determine the status of your change token.

SizeConstraintSetId is returned by CreateSizeConstraintSet and by ListSizeConstraintSets .
The name, if any, of the SizeConstraintSet .
Specifies the parts of web requests that you want to inspect the size of.
Note
This is AWS WAF Classic documentation. For more information, see AWS WAF Classic in the developer guide.
For the latest version of AWS WAF , use the AWS WAFV2 API and see the AWS WAF Developer Guide . With the latest version, AWS WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use.
Specifies a constraint on the size of a part of the web request. AWS WAF uses the Size , ComparisonOperator , and FieldToMatch to build an expression in the form of "Size ComparisonOperator size in bytes of FieldToMatch ". If that expression is true, the SizeConstraint is considered to match.
Specifies where in a web request to look for the size constraint.
The part of the web request that you want AWS WAF to search for a specified string. Parts of a request that you can search include the following:
When the value of Type is HEADER , enter the name of the header that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, User-Agent or Referer . The name of the header is not case sensitive.
When the value of Type is SINGLE_QUERY_ARG , enter the name of the parameter that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, UserName or SalesRegion . The parameter name is not case sensitive.
If the value of Type is any other value, omit Data .
Text transformations eliminate some of the unusual formatting that attackers use in web requests in an effort to bypass AWS WAF. If you specify a transformation, AWS WAF performs the transformation on FieldToMatch before inspecting it for a match.
You can only specify a single type of TextTransformation.
Note that if you choose BODY for the value of Type , you must choose NONE for TextTransformation because CloudFront forwards only the first 8192 bytes for inspection.
NONE
Specify NONE if you don't want to perform any text transformations.
CMD_LINE
When you're concerned that attackers are injecting an operating system command line command and using unusual formatting to disguise some or all of the command, use this option to perform the following transformations:
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE
Use this option to replace the following characters with a space character (decimal 32):
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE also replaces multiple spaces with one space.HTML_ENTITY_DECODE
Use this option to replace HTML-encoded characters with unencoded characters. HTML_ENTITY_DECODE performs the following operations:
LOWERCASE
Use this option to convert uppercase letters (A-Z) to lowercase (a-z).
URL_DECODE
Use this option to decode a URL-encoded value.
The type of comparison you want AWS WAF to perform. AWS WAF uses this in combination with the provided Size and FieldToMatch to build an expression in the form of "Size ComparisonOperator size in bytes of FieldToMatch ". If that expression is true, the SizeConstraint is considered to match.
EQ : Used to test if the Size is equal to the size of the FieldToMatchNE : Used to test if the Size is not equal to the size of the FieldToMatch
LE : Used to test if the Size is less than or equal to the size of the FieldToMatch
LT : Used to test if the Size is strictly less than the size of the FieldToMatch
GE : Used to test if the Size is greater than or equal to the size of the FieldToMatch
GT : Used to test if the Size is strictly greater than the size of the FieldToMatch
The size in bytes that you want AWS WAF to compare against the size of the specified FieldToMatch . AWS WAF uses this in combination with ComparisonOperator and FieldToMatch to build an expression in the form of "Size ComparisonOperator size in bytes of FieldToMatch ". If that expression is true, the SizeConstraint is considered to match.
Valid values for size are 0 - 21474836480 bytes (0 - 20 GB).
If you specify URI for the value of Type , the / in the URI counts as one character. For example, the URI /logo.jpg is nine characters long.

Response Structure
Information about the WebACL that you specified in the GetWebACL request. For more information, see the following topics:
A unique identifier for a WebACL . You use WebACLId to get information about a WebACL (see GetWebACL ), update a WebACL (see UpdateWebACL ), and delete a WebACL from AWS WAF (see DeleteWebACL ).
WebACLId is returned by CreateWebACL and by ListWebACLs .
A friendly name or description of the WebACL . You can't change the name of a WebACL after you create it.
A friendly name or description for the metrics for this WebACL . The name can contain only alphanumeric characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9), with maximum length 128 and minimum length one. It can't contain whitespace or metric names reserved for AWS WAF, including "All" and "Default_Action." You can't change MetricName after you create the WebACL .
The action to perform if none of the Rules contained in the WebACL match. The action is specified by the WafAction object.
Specifies how you want AWS WAF to respond to requests that match the settings in a Rule . Valid settings include the following:
An array that contains the action for each Rule in a WebACL , the priority of the Rule , and the ID of the Rule .
Note
This is AWS WAF Classic documentation. For more information, see AWS WAF Classic in the developer guide.
For the latest version of AWS WAF , use the AWS WAFV2 API and see the AWS WAF Developer Guide . With the latest version, AWS WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use.
The ActivatedRule object in an UpdateWebACL request specifies a Rule that you want to insert or delete, the priority of the Rule in the WebACL , and the action that you want AWS WAF to take when a web request matches the Rule (ALLOW , BLOCK , or COUNT ).
To specify whether to insert or delete a Rule , use the Action parameter in the WebACLUpdate data type.
Specifies the order in which the Rules in a WebACL are evaluated. Rules with a lower value for Priority are evaluated before Rules with a higher value. The value must be a unique integer. If you add multiple Rules to a WebACL , the values don't need to be consecutive.
The RuleId for a Rule . You use RuleId to get more information about a Rule (see GetRule ), update a Rule (see UpdateRule ), insert a Rule into a WebACL or delete a one from a WebACL (see UpdateWebACL ), or delete a Rule from AWS WAF (see DeleteRule ).
RuleId is returned by CreateRule and by ListRules .
Specifies the action that CloudFront or AWS WAF takes when a web request matches the conditions in the Rule . Valid values for Action include the following:
ActivatedRule|OverrideAction applies only when updating or adding a RuleGroup to a WebACL . In this case, you do not use ActivatedRule|Action . For all other update requests, ActivatedRule|Action is used instead of ActivatedRule|OverrideAction .
Specifies how you want AWS WAF to respond to requests that match the settings in a Rule . Valid settings include the following:
Use the OverrideAction to test your RuleGroup .
Any rule in a RuleGroup can potentially block a request. If you set the OverrideAction to None , the RuleGroup will block a request if any individual rule in the RuleGroup matches the request and is configured to block that request. However if you first want to test the RuleGroup , set the OverrideAction to Count . The RuleGroup will then override any block action specified by individual rules contained within the group. Instead of blocking matching requests, those requests will be counted. You can view a record of counted requests using GetSampledRequests .
ActivatedRule|OverrideAction applies only when updating or adding a RuleGroup to a WebACL . In this case you do not use ActivatedRule|Action . For all other update requests, ActivatedRule|Action is used instead of ActivatedRule|OverrideAction .
COUNT overrides the action specified by the individual rule within a RuleGroup . If set to NONE , the rule's action will take place.
The rule type, either REGULAR , as defined by Rule , RATE_BASED , as defined by RateBasedRule , or GROUP , as defined by RuleGroup . The default is REGULAR. Although this field is optional, be aware that if you try to add a RATE_BASED rule to a web ACL without setting the type, the UpdateWebACL request will fail because the request tries to add a REGULAR rule with the specified ID, which does not exist.
An array of rules to exclude from a rule group. This is applicable only when the ActivatedRule refers to a RuleGroup .
Sometimes it is necessary to troubleshoot rule groups that are blocking traffic unexpectedly (false positives). One troubleshooting technique is to identify the specific rule within the rule group that is blocking the legitimate traffic and then disable (exclude) that particular rule. You can exclude rules from both your own rule groups and AWS Marketplace rule groups that have been associated with a web ACL.
Specifying ExcludedRules does not remove those rules from the rule group. Rather, it changes the action for the rules to COUNT . Therefore, requests that match an ExcludedRule are counted but not blocked. The RuleGroup owner will receive COUNT metrics for each ExcludedRule .
If you want to exclude rules from a rule group that is already associated with a web ACL, perform the following steps:

Specifies whether to insert or delete a ByteMatchTuple .
Information about the part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to inspect and the value that you want AWS WAF to search for. If you specify DELETE for the value of Action , the ByteMatchTuple values must exactly match the values in the ByteMatchTuple that you want to delete from the ByteMatchSet .
The part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to search, such as a specified header or a query string. For more information, see FieldToMatch .
The part of the web request that you want AWS WAF to search for a specified string. Parts of a request that you can search include the following:
When the value of Type is HEADER , enter the name of the header that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, User-Agent or Referer . The name of the header is not case sensitive.
When the value of Type is SINGLE_QUERY_ARG , enter the name of the parameter that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, UserName or SalesRegion . The parameter name is not case sensitive.
If the value of Type is any other value, omit Data .
The value that you want AWS WAF to search for. AWS WAF searches for the specified string in the part of web requests that you specified in FieldToMatch . The maximum length of the value is 50 bytes.
Valid values depend on the values that you specified for FieldToMatch :
If TargetString includes alphabetic characters A-Z and a-z, note that the value is case sensitive.
If you're using the AWS WAF API
Specify a base64-encoded version of the value. The maximum length of the value before you base64-encode it is 50 bytes.
For example, suppose the value of Type is HEADER and the value of Data is User-Agent . If you want to search the User-Agent header for the value BadBot , you base64-encode BadBot using MIME base64-encoding and include the resulting value, QmFkQm90 , in the value of TargetString .
If you're using the AWS CLI or one of the AWS SDKs
The value that you want AWS WAF to search for. The SDK automatically base64 encodes the value.
Text transformations eliminate some of the unusual formatting that attackers use in web requests in an effort to bypass AWS WAF. If you specify a transformation, AWS WAF performs the transformation on FieldToMatch before inspecting it for a match.
You can only specify a single type of TextTransformation.
CMD_LINE
When you're concerned that attackers are injecting an operating system command line command and using unusual formatting to disguise some or all of the command, use this option to perform the following transformations:
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE
Use this option to replace the following characters with a space character (decimal 32):
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE also replaces multiple spaces with one space.HTML_ENTITY_DECODE
Use this option to replace HTML-encoded characters with unencoded characters. HTML_ENTITY_DECODE performs the following operations:
LOWERCASE
Use this option to convert uppercase letters (A-Z) to lowercase (a-z).
URL_DECODE
Use this option to decode a URL-encoded value.
NONE
Specify NONE if you don't want to perform any text transformations.
Within the portion of a web request that you want to search (for example, in the query string, if any), specify where you want AWS WAF to search. Valid values include the following:
CONTAINS
The specified part of the web request must include the value of TargetString , but the location doesn't matter.
CONTAINS_WORD
The specified part of the web request must include the value of TargetString , and TargetString must contain only alphanumeric characters or underscore (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, or _). In addition, TargetString must be a word, which means one of the following:
EXACTLY
The value of the specified part of the web request must exactly match the value of TargetString .
STARTS_WITH
The value of TargetString must appear at the beginning of the specified part of the web request.
ENDS_WITH
The value of TargetString must appear at the end of the specified part of the web request.

AWS WAF supports IPv4 address ranges: /8 and any range between /16 through /32. AWS WAF supports IPv6 address ranges: /24, /32, /48, /56, /64, and /128. For more information about CIDR notation, see the Wikipedia entry Classless Inter-Domain Routing .
IPv6 addresses can be represented using any of the following formats:
You use an IPSet to specify which web requests you want to allow or block based on the IP addresses that the requests originated from. For example, if you're receiving a lot of requests from one or a small number of IP addresses and you want to block the requests, you can create an IPSet that specifies those IP addresses, and then configure AWS WAF to block the requests.
To create and configure an IPSet , perform the following steps:

Inserts or deletes Predicate objects in a rule and updates the RateLimit in the rule.
Each Predicate object identifies a predicate, such as a ByteMatchSet or an IPSet , that specifies the web requests that you want to block or count. The RateLimit specifies the number of requests every five minutes that triggers the rule.
If you add more than one predicate to a RateBasedRule , a request must match all the predicates and exceed the RateLimit to be counted or blocked. For example, suppose you add the following to a RateBasedRule :
Further, you specify a RateLimit of 1,000.
You then add the RateBasedRule to a WebACL and specify that you want to block requests that satisfy the rule. For a request to be blocked, it must come from the IP address 192.0.2.44 and the User-Agent header in the request must contain the value BadBot . Further, requests that match these two conditions much be received at a rate of more than 1,000 every five minutes. If the rate drops below this limit, AWS WAF no longer blocks the requests.
As a second example, suppose you want to limit requests to a particular page on your site. To do this, you could add the following to a RateBasedRule :
Further, you specify a RateLimit of 1,000.
By adding this RateBasedRule to a WebACL , you could limit requests to your login page without affecting the rest of your site.

Inserts or deletes Predicate objects in a Rule . Each Predicate object identifies a predicate, such as a ByteMatchSet or an IPSet , that specifies the web requests that you want to allow, block, or count. If you add more than one predicate to a Rule , a request must match all of the specifications to be allowed, blocked, or counted. For example, suppose that you add the following to a Rule :
You then add the Rule to a WebACL and specify that you want to block requests that satisfy the Rule . For a request to be blocked, the User-Agent header in the request must contain the value BadBot and the request must originate from the IP address 192.0.2.44.
To create and configure a Rule , perform the following steps:
If you want to replace one ByteMatchSet or IPSet with another, you delete the existing one and add the new one.

Specifies an ActivatedRule and indicates whether you want to add it to a RuleGroup or delete it from a RuleGroup .
Specify INSERT to add an ActivatedRule to a RuleGroup . Use DELETE to remove an ActivatedRule from a RuleGroup .
The ActivatedRule object specifies a Rule that you want to insert or delete, the priority of the Rule in the WebACL , and the action that you want AWS WAF to take when a web request matches the Rule (ALLOW , BLOCK , or COUNT ).
Specifies the order in which the Rules in a WebACL are evaluated. Rules with a lower value for Priority are evaluated before Rules with a higher value. The value must be a unique integer. If you add multiple Rules to a WebACL , the values don't need to be consecutive.
The RuleId for a Rule . You use RuleId to get more information about a Rule (see GetRule ), update a Rule (see UpdateRule ), insert a Rule into a WebACL or delete a one from a WebACL (see UpdateWebACL ), or delete a Rule from AWS WAF (see DeleteRule ).
RuleId is returned by CreateRule and by ListRules .
Specifies the action that CloudFront or AWS WAF takes when a web request matches the conditions in the Rule . Valid values for Action include the following:
ActivatedRule|OverrideAction applies only when updating or adding a RuleGroup to a WebACL . In this case, you do not use ActivatedRule|Action . For all other update requests, ActivatedRule|Action is used instead of ActivatedRule|OverrideAction .
Specifies how you want AWS WAF to respond to requests that match the settings in a Rule . Valid settings include the following:
Use the OverrideAction to test your RuleGroup .
Any rule in a RuleGroup can potentially block a request. If you set the OverrideAction to None , the RuleGroup will block a request if any individual rule in the RuleGroup matches the request and is configured to block that request. However if you first want to test the RuleGroup , set the OverrideAction to Count . The RuleGroup will then override any block action specified by individual rules contained within the group. Instead of blocking matching requests, those requests will be counted. You can view a record of counted requests using GetSampledRequests .
ActivatedRule|OverrideAction applies only when updating or adding a RuleGroup to a WebACL . In this case you do not use ActivatedRule|Action . For all other update requests, ActivatedRule|Action is used instead of ActivatedRule|OverrideAction .
COUNT overrides the action specified by the individual rule within a RuleGroup . If set to NONE , the rule's action will take place.
The rule type, either REGULAR , as defined by Rule , RATE_BASED , as defined by RateBasedRule , or GROUP , as defined by RuleGroup . The default is REGULAR. Although this field is optional, be aware that if you try to add a RATE_BASED rule to a web ACL without setting the type, the UpdateWebACL request will fail because the request tries to add a REGULAR rule with the specified ID, which does not exist.
An array of rules to exclude from a rule group. This is applicable only when the ActivatedRule refers to a RuleGroup .
Sometimes it is necessary to troubleshoot rule groups that are blocking traffic unexpectedly (false positives). One troubleshooting technique is to identify the specific rule within the rule group that is blocking the legitimate traffic and then disable (exclude) that particular rule. You can exclude rules from both your own rule groups and AWS Marketplace rule groups that have been associated with a web ACL.
Specifying ExcludedRules does not remove those rules from the rule group. Rather, it changes the action for the rules to COUNT . Therefore, requests that match an ExcludedRule are counted but not blocked. The RuleGroup owner will receive COUNT metrics for each ExcludedRule .
If you want to exclude rules from a rule group that is already associated with a web ACL, perform the following steps:

Specify INSERT to add a SizeConstraintSetUpdate to a SizeConstraintSet . Use DELETE to remove a SizeConstraintSetUpdate from a SizeConstraintSet .
Specifies a constraint on the size of a part of the web request. AWS WAF uses the Size , ComparisonOperator , and FieldToMatch to build an expression in the form of "Size ComparisonOperator size in bytes of FieldToMatch ". If that expression is true, the SizeConstraint is considered to match.
Specifies where in a web request to look for the size constraint.
The part of the web request that you want AWS WAF to search for a specified string. Parts of a request that you can search include the following:
When the value of Type is HEADER , enter the name of the header that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, User-Agent or Referer . The name of the header is not case sensitive.
When the value of Type is SINGLE_QUERY_ARG , enter the name of the parameter that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, UserName or SalesRegion . The parameter name is not case sensitive.
If the value of Type is any other value, omit Data .
Text transformations eliminate some of the unusual formatting that attackers use in web requests in an effort to bypass AWS WAF. If you specify a transformation, AWS WAF performs the transformation on FieldToMatch before inspecting it for a match.
You can only specify a single type of TextTransformation.
Note that if you choose BODY for the value of Type , you must choose NONE for TextTransformation because CloudFront forwards only the first 8192 bytes for inspection.
NONE
Specify NONE if you don't want to perform any text transformations.
CMD_LINE
When you're concerned that attackers are injecting an operating system command line command and using unusual formatting to disguise some or all of the command, use this option to perform the following transformations:
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE
Use this option to replace the following characters with a space character (decimal 32):
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE also replaces multiple spaces with one space.HTML_ENTITY_DECODE
Use this option to replace HTML-encoded characters with unencoded characters. HTML_ENTITY_DECODE performs the following operations:
LOWERCASE
Use this option to convert uppercase letters (A-Z) to lowercase (a-z).
URL_DECODE
Use this option to decode a URL-encoded value.
The type of comparison you want AWS WAF to perform. AWS WAF uses this in combination with the provided Size and FieldToMatch to build an expression in the form of "Size ComparisonOperator size in bytes of FieldToMatch ". If that expression is true, the SizeConstraint is considered to match.
EQ : Used to test if the Size is equal to the size of the FieldToMatchNE : Used to test if the Size is not equal to the size of the FieldToMatch
LE : Used to test if the Size is less than or equal to the size of the FieldToMatch
LT : Used to test if the Size is strictly less than the size of the FieldToMatch
GE : Used to test if the Size is greater than or equal to the size of the FieldToMatch
GT : Used to test if the Size is strictly greater than the size of the FieldToMatch
The size in bytes that you want AWS WAF to compare against the size of the specified FieldToMatch . AWS WAF uses this in combination with ComparisonOperator and FieldToMatch to build an expression in the form of "Size ComparisonOperator size in bytes of FieldToMatch ". If that expression is true, the SizeConstraint is considered to match.
Valid values for size are 0 - 21474836480 bytes (0 - 20 GB).
If you specify URI for the value of Type , the / in the URI counts as one character. For example, the URI /logo.jpg is nine characters long.

Sometimes it is necessary to troubleshoot rule groups that are blocking traffic unexpectedly (false positives). One troubleshooting technique is to identify the specific rule within the rule group that is blocking the legitimate traffic and then disable (exclude) that particular rule. You can exclude rules from both your own rule groups and AWS Marketplace rule groups that have been associated with a web ACL.
Specifying ExcludedRules does not remove those rules from the rule group. Rather, it changes the action for the rules to COUNT . Therefore, requests that match an ExcludedRule are counted but not blocked. The RuleGroup owner will receive COUNT metrics for each ExcludedRule .
If you want to exclude rules from a rule group that is already associated with a web ACL, perform the following steps:

This is AWS WAF Classic documentation. For more information, see AWS WAF Classic in the developer guide.
For the latest version of AWS WAF , use the AWS WAFV2 API and see the AWS WAF Developer Guide . With the latest version, AWS WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use.
The rule to exclude from a rule group. This is applicable only when the ActivatedRule refers to a RuleGroup . The rule must belong to the RuleGroup that is specified by the ActivatedRule .
The unique identifier for the rule to exclude from the rule group.
A default action for the web ACL, either ALLOW or BLOCK. AWS WAF performs the default action if a request doesn't match the criteria in any of the rules in a web ACL.
Specifies how you want AWS WAF to respond to requests that match the settings in a Rule . Valid settings include the following:

Examples
The following example deletes an ActivatedRule object in a WebACL with the ID webacl-1472061481310.
response = client.update_web_acl(
ChangeToken='abcd12f2-46da-4fdb-b8d5-fbd4c466928f',
DefaultAction={
'Type': 'ALLOW',
},
Updates=[

},
'Priority': 1,
'RuleId': 'WAFRule-1-Example',
},
},
],
WebACLId='webacl-1472061481310',
)
print(response)
Expected Output:
{
'ChangeToken': 'abcd12f2-46da-4fdb-b8d5-fbd4c466928f',

Inserts or deletes XssMatchTuple objects (filters) in an XssMatchSet . For each XssMatchTuple object, you specify the following values:
You use XssMatchSet objects to specify which CloudFront requests that you want to allow, block, or count. For example, if you're receiving requests that contain cross-site scripting attacks in the request body and you want to block the requests, you can create an XssMatchSet with the applicable settings, and then configure AWS WAF to block the requests.
To create and configure an XssMatchSet , perform the following steps:
For more information about how to use the AWS WAF API to allow or block HTTP requests, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide .

Specifies the part of a web request that you want to inspect for cross-site scripting attacks and indicates whether you want to add the specification to an XssMatchSet or delete it from an XssMatchSet .
Specify INSERT to add an XssMatchSetUpdate to an XssMatchSet . Use DELETE to remove an XssMatchSetUpdate from an XssMatchSet .
Specifies the part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to inspect for cross-site scripting attacks and, if you want AWS WAF to inspect a header, the name of the header.
Specifies where in a web request to look for cross-site scripting attacks.
The part of the web request that you want AWS WAF to search for a specified string. Parts of a request that you can search include the following:
When the value of Type is HEADER , enter the name of the header that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, User-Agent or Referer . The name of the header is not case sensitive.
When the value of Type is SINGLE_QUERY_ARG , enter the name of the parameter that you want AWS WAF to search, for example, UserName or SalesRegion . The parameter name is not case sensitive.
If the value of Type is any other value, omit Data .
Text transformations eliminate some of the unusual formatting that attackers use in web requests in an effort to bypass AWS WAF. If you specify a transformation, AWS WAF performs the transformation on FieldToMatch before inspecting it for a match.
You can only specify a single type of TextTransformation.
CMD_LINE
When you're concerned that attackers are injecting an operating system command line command and using unusual formatting to disguise some or all of the command, use this option to perform the following transformations:
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE
Use this option to replace the following characters with a space character (decimal 32):
COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE also replaces multiple spaces with one space.HTML_ENTITY_DECODE
Use this option to replace HTML-encoded characters with unencoded characters. HTML_ENTITY_DECODE performs the following operations:
LOWERCASE
Use this option to convert uppercase letters (A-Z) to lowercase (a-z).
URL_DECODE
Use this option to decode a URL-encoded value.
NONE
Specify NONE if you don't want to perform any text transformations.
