put_remediation_exceptions

put_remediation_exceptions(**kwargs)

A remediation exception is when a specific resource is no longer considered for auto-remediation. This API adds a new exception or updates an existing exception for a specific resource with a specific Config rule.

Note

Config generates a remediation exception when a problem occurs executing a remediation action to a specific resource. Remediation exceptions blocks auto-remediation until the exception is cleared.

Note

To place an exception on an Amazon Web Services resource, ensure remediation is set as manual remediation.
