register_activity_type
(**kwargs)¶Registers a new activity type along with its configuration settings in the specified domain.
Warning
ATypeAlreadyExists
fault is returned if the type already exists in the domain. You cannot change any configuration settings of the type after its registration, and it must be registered as a new version.
Access Control
You can use IAM policies to control this action's access to Amazon SWF resources as follows:
Resource
element with the domain name to limit the action to only specified domains.Action
element to allow or deny permission to call this action.Condition
element with the appropriate keys.defaultTaskList.name
: String constraint. The key is swf:defaultTaskList.name
.name
: String constraint. The key is swf:name
.version
: String constraint. The key is swf:version
.If the caller doesn't have sufficient permissions to invoke the action, or the parameter values fall outside the specified constraints, the action fails. The associated event attribute's cause
parameter is set to OPERATION_NOT_PERMITTED
. For details and example IAM policies, see Using IAM to Manage Access to Amazon SWF Workflows in the Amazon SWF Developer Guide .

Request Syntax
response = client.register_activity_type(
domain='string',
name='string',
version='string',
description='string',
defaultTaskStartToCloseTimeout='string',
defaultTaskHeartbeatTimeout='string',
defaultTaskList={
'name': 'string'
},
defaultTaskPriority='string',
defaultTaskScheduleToStartTimeout='string',
defaultTaskScheduleToCloseTimeout='string'
)
[REQUIRED]
The name of the domain in which this activity is to be registered.
[REQUIRED]
The name of the activity type within the domain.
The specified string must not start or end with whitespace. It must not contain a :
(colon), /
(slash), |
(vertical bar), or any control characters ( \u0000-\u001f
| \u007f-\u009f
). Also, it must not be the literal string arn
.
[REQUIRED]
The version of the activity type.
Note
The activity type consists of the name and version, the combination of which must be unique within the domain.
The specified string must not start or end with whitespace. It must not contain a :
(colon), /
(slash), |
(vertical bar), or any control characters ( \u0000-\u001f
| \u007f-\u009f
). Also, it must not be the literal string arn
.
If set, specifies the default maximum duration that a worker can take to process tasks of this activity type. This default can be overridden when scheduling an activity task using the ScheduleActivityTask
Decision.
The duration is specified in seconds, an integer greater than or equal to 0
. You can use NONE
to specify unlimited duration.
If set, specifies the default maximum time before which a worker processing a task of this type must report progress by calling RecordActivityTaskHeartbeat. If the timeout is exceeded, the activity task is automatically timed out. This default can be overridden when scheduling an activity task using the ScheduleActivityTask
Decision. If the activity worker subsequently attempts to record a heartbeat or returns a result, the activity worker receives an UnknownResource
fault. In this case, Amazon SWF no longer considers the activity task to be valid; the activity worker should clean up the activity task.
The duration is specified in seconds, an integer greater than or equal to 0
. You can use NONE
to specify unlimited duration.
If set, specifies the default task list to use for scheduling tasks of this activity type. This default task list is used if a task list isn't provided when a task is scheduled through the ScheduleActivityTask
Decision.
The name of the task list.
The default task priority to assign to the activity type. If not assigned, then 0
is used. Valid values are integers that range from Java's Integer.MIN_VALUE
(-2147483648) to Integer.MAX_VALUE
(2147483647). Higher numbers indicate higher priority.
For more information about setting task priority, see Setting Task Priority in the in the Amazon SWF Developer Guide ..
If set, specifies the default maximum duration that a task of this activity type can wait before being assigned to a worker. This default can be overridden when scheduling an activity task using the ScheduleActivityTask
Decision.
The duration is specified in seconds, an integer greater than or equal to 0
. You can use NONE
to specify unlimited duration.
If set, specifies the default maximum duration for a task of this activity type. This default can be overridden when scheduling an activity task using the ScheduleActivityTask
Decision.
The duration is specified in seconds, an integer greater than or equal to 0
. You can use NONE
to specify unlimited duration.
None
