Response Structure
(dict) –
Arn (string) –
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the extension.
Type (string) –
The kind of extension.
TypeName (string) –
The name of the extension.
If the extension is a public third-party type you have activated with a type name alias, CloudFormation returns the type name alias. For more information, see ActivateType.
DefaultVersionId (string) –
The ID of the default version of the extension. The default version is used when the extension version isn’t specified.
This applies only to private extensions you have registered in your account. For public extensions, both those provided by Amazon Web Services and published by third parties, CloudFormation returns
null
. For more information, see RegisterType.To set the default version of an extension, use SetTypeDefaultVersion.
IsDefaultVersion (boolean) –
Whether the specified extension version is set as the default version.
This applies only to private extensions you have registered in your account, and extensions published by Amazon Web Services. For public third-party extensions, whether they are activated in your account, CloudFormation returns
null
.TypeTestsStatus (string) –
The contract test status of the registered extension version. To return the extension test status of a specific extension version, you must specify
VersionId
.This applies only to registered private extension versions. CloudFormation doesn’t return this information for public extensions, whether they are activated in your account.
PASSED
: The extension has passed all its contract tests. An extension must have a test status ofPASSED
before it can be published. For more information, see Publishing extensions to make them available for public use in the CloudFormation Command Line Interface User Guide.FAILED
: The extension has failed one or more contract tests.IN_PROGRESS
: Contract tests are currently being performed on the extension.NOT_TESTED
: Contract tests haven’t been performed on the extension.
TypeTestsStatusDescription (string) –
The description of the test status. To return the extension test status of a specific extension version, you must specify
VersionId
.This applies only to registered private extension versions. CloudFormation doesn’t return this information for public extensions, whether they are activated in your account.
Description (string) –
The description of the extension.
Schema (string) –
The schema that defines the extension.
For more information about extension schemas, see Resource Provider Schema in the CloudFormation CLI User Guide.
ProvisioningType (string) –
For resource type extensions, the provisioning behavior of the resource type. CloudFormation determines the provisioning type during registration, based on the types of handlers in the schema handler package submitted.
Valid values include:
FULLY_MUTABLE
: The resource type includes an update handler to process updates to the type during stack update operations.IMMUTABLE
: The resource type doesn’t include an update handler, so the type can’t be updated and must instead be replaced during stack update operations.NON_PROVISIONABLE
: The resource type doesn’t include all the following handlers, and therefore can’t actually be provisioned.create
read
delete
DeprecatedStatus (string) –
The deprecation status of the extension version.
Valid values include:
LIVE
: The extension is activated or registered and can be used in CloudFormation operations, dependent on its provisioning behavior and visibility scope.DEPRECATED

For public third-party extensions, CloudFormation returns
null
.LoggingConfig (dict) –

You must use the alias to refer to the extension in your templates, API calls, and CloudFormation console.
OriginalTypeName (string) –
The type name of the public extension.
If you specified a
TypeNameAlias
when enabling the extension in this account and Region, CloudFormation treats that alias as the extension’s type name within the account and Region, not the type name of the public extension.

This applies only to public third-party extensions. For private registered extensions, and extensions provided by Amazon Web Services, CloudFormation returns
null
.OriginalTypeName (string) –
For public extensions that have been activated for this account and Region, the type name of the public extension.
If you specified a
TypeNameAlias
