Client

class SFN.Client

A low-level client representing AWS Step Functions (SFN)

Step Functions is a service that lets you coordinate the components of distributed applications and microservices using visual workflows.

You can use Step Functions to build applications from individual components, each of which performs a discrete function, or task , allowing you to scale and change applications quickly. Step Functions provides a console that helps visualize the components of your application as a series of steps. Step Functions automatically triggers and tracks each step, and retries steps when there are errors, so your application executes predictably and in the right order every time. Step Functions logs the state of each step, so you can quickly diagnose and debug any issues.

Step Functions manages operations and underlying infrastructure to ensure your application is available at any scale. You can run tasks on Amazon Web Services, your own servers, or any system that has access to Amazon Web Services. You can access and use Step Functions using the console, the Amazon Web Services SDKs, or an HTTP API. For more information about Step Functions, see the Step Functions Developer Guide .

import boto3

client = boto3.client('stepfunctions')

These are the available methods:

can_paginate(operation_name)

Check if an operation can be paginated.

Parameters
operation_name (string) -- The operation name. This is the same name as the method name on the client. For example, if the method name is create_foo, and you'd normally invoke the operation as client.create_foo(**kwargs), if the create_foo operation can be paginated, you can use the call client.get_paginator("create_foo").
Returns
True if the operation can be paginated, False otherwise.
close()

Closes underlying endpoint connections.

create_activity(**kwargs)

Creates an activity. An activity is a task that you write in any programming language and host on any machine that has access to Step Functions. Activities must poll Step Functions using the GetActivityTask API action and respond using SendTask* API actions. This function lets Step Functions know the existence of your activity and returns an identifier for use in a state machine and when polling from the activity.

Note

This operation is eventually consistent. The results are best effort and may not reflect very recent updates and changes.

Note

CreateActivity is an idempotent API. Subsequent requests won’t create a duplicate resource if it was already created. CreateActivity 's idempotency check is based on the activity name . If a following request has different tags values, Step Functions will ignore these differences and treat it as an idempotent request of the previous. In this case, tags will not be updated, even if they are different.

{
    'activityArn': 'string',
    'creationDate': datetime(2015, 1, 1)
}

Response Structure

  • (dict) --

    • activityArn (string) --

      The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) that identifies the created activity.

    • creationDate (datetime) --

      The date the activity is created.

Exceptions

create_state_machine(**kwargs)

Creates a state machine. A state machine consists of a collection of states that can do work ( Task states), determine to which states to transition next ( Choice states), stop an execution with an error ( Fail states), and so on. State machines are specified using a JSON-based, structured language. For more information, see Amazon States Language in the Step Functions User Guide.

Note

This operation is eventually consistent. The results are best effort and may not reflect very recent updates and changes.

Note

CreateStateMachine is an idempotent API. Subsequent requests won’t create a duplicate resource if it was already created. CreateStateMachine 's idempotency check is based on the state machine name , definition , type , LoggingConfiguration and TracingConfiguration . If a following request has a different roleArn or tags , Step Functions will ignore these differences and treat it as an idempotent request of the previous. In this case, roleArn and tags will not be updated, even if they are different.

describe_state_machine_for_execution(**kwargs)

Provides information about a state machine's definition, its execution role ARN, and configuration. If an execution was dispatched by a Map Run, the Map Run is returned in the response. Additionally, the state machine returned will be the state machine associated with the Map Run.

Note

This operation is eventually consistent. The results are best effort and may not reflect very recent updates and changes.

This API action is not supported by EXPRESS state machines.

Exceptions

  • SFN.Client.exceptions.ExecutionDoesNotExist
  • SFN.Client.exceptions.InvalidArn
get_activity_task(**kwargs)

Used by workers to retrieve a task (with the specified activity ARN) which has been scheduled for execution by a running state machine. This initiates a long poll, where the service holds the HTTP connection open and responds as soon as a task becomes available (i.e. an execution of a task of this type is needed.) The maximum time the service holds on to the request before responding is 60 seconds. If no task is available within 60 seconds, the poll returns a taskToken with a null string.

Note

This API action isn't logged in CloudTrail.

Warning

Workers should set their client side socket timeout to at least 65 seconds (5 seconds higher than the maximum time the service may hold the poll request).

Polling with GetActivityTask can cause latency in some implementations. See Avoid Latency When Polling for Activity Tasks in the Step Functions Developer Guide.

Request Syntax

response = client.get_activity_task(
    activityArn='string',
    workerName='string'
)
Parameters
  • activityArn (string) --

    [REQUIRED]

    The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the activity to retrieve tasks from (assigned when you create the task using CreateActivity.)

  • workerName (string) -- You can provide an arbitrary name in order to identify the worker that the task is assigned to. This name is used when it is logged in the execution history.
Return type

dict

Returns

Response Syntax

{
    'taskToken': 'string',
    'input': 'string'
}

Response Structure

  • (dict) --

    • taskToken (string) --

      A token that identifies the scheduled task. This token must be copied and included in subsequent calls to SendTaskHeartbeat, SendTaskSuccess or SendTaskFailure in order to report the progress or completion of the task.

    • input (string) --

      The string that contains the JSON input data for the task. Length constraints apply to the payload size, and are expressed as bytes in UTF-8 encoding.

Exceptions

  • SFN.Client.exceptions.ActivityDoesNotExist
  • SFN.Client.exceptions.ActivityWorkerLimitExceeded
  • SFN.Client.exceptions.InvalidArn
get_execution_history(**kwargs)

Returns the history of the specified execution as a list of events. By default, the results are returned in ascending order of the timeStamp of the events. Use the reverseOrder parameter to get the latest events first.

If nextToken is returned, there are more results available. The value of nextToken is a unique pagination token for each page. Make the call again using the returned token to retrieve the next page. Keep all other arguments unchanged. Each pagination token expires after 24 hours. Using an expired pagination token will return an HTTP 400 InvalidToken error.

This API action is not supported by EXPRESS state machines.

Request Syntax

response = client.get_execution_history(
    executionArn='string',
    maxResults=123,
    reverseOrder=True|False,
    nextToken='string',
    includeExecutionData=True|False
)
Parameters
  • executionArn (string) --

    [REQUIRED]

    The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the execution.

  • maxResults (integer) --

    The maximum number of results that are returned per call. You can use nextToken to obtain further pages of results. The default is 100 and the maximum allowed page size is 1000. A value of 0 uses the default.

    This is only an upper limit. The actual number of results returned per call might be fewer than the specified maximum.

  • reverseOrder (boolean) -- Lists events in descending order of their timeStamp .
  • nextToken (string) -- If nextToken is returned, there are more results available. The value of nextToken is a unique pagination token for each page. Make the call again using the returned token to retrieve the next page. Keep all other arguments unchanged. Each pagination token expires after 24 hours. Using an expired pagination token will return an HTTP 400 InvalidToken error.
  • includeExecutionData (boolean) -- You can select whether execution data (input or output of a history event) is returned. The default is true .

Raises OperationNotPageableError
Raised if the operation is not pageable. You can use the client.can_paginate method to check if an operation is pageable.
Return type
L{botocore.paginate.Paginator}
Returns
A paginator object.
get_waiter(waiter_name)

Returns an object that can wait for some condition.

Parameters

This action does not in itself create an event in the execution history. However, if the task times out, the execution history contains an ActivityTimedOut entry for activities, or a TaskTimedOut entry for for tasks using the job run or callback pattern.

Note

The Timeout of a task, defined in the state machine's Amazon States Language definition, is its maximum allowed duration, regardless of the number of SendTaskHeartbeat requests received. Use HeartbeatSeconds to configure the timeout interval for heartbeats.

start_execution(**kwargs)

Starts a state machine execution. If the given state machine Amazon Resource Name (ARN) is a qualified state machine ARN, it will fail with ValidationException.

A qualified state machine ARN refers to a Distributed Map state defined within a state machine. For example, the qualified state machine ARN arn:partition:states:region:account-id:stateMachine:stateMachineName/mapStateLabel refers to a Distributed Map state with a label mapStateLabel in the state machine named stateMachineName .

Note

StartExecution is idempotent for STANDARD workflows. For a STANDARD workflow, if StartExecution is called with the same name and input as a running execution, the call will succeed and return the same response as the original request. If the execution is closed or if the input is different, it will return a 400 ExecutionAlreadyExists error. Names can be reused after 90 days.

StartExecution is not idempotent for EXPRESS workflows.
