EventBridge / Client / put_events

put_events#

EventBridge.Client.put_events(**kwargs)#

Sends custom events to Amazon EventBridge so that they can be matched to rules.

The maximum size for a PutEvents event entry is 256 KB. Entry size is calculated including the event and any necessary characters and keys of the JSON representation of the event. To learn more, see Calculating PutEvents event entry size in the Amazon EventBridge User Guide

PutEvents accepts the data in JSON format. For the JSON number (integer) data type, the constraints are: a minimum value of -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 and a maximum value of 9,223,372,036,854,775,807.

Note

PutEvents will only process nested JSON up to 1100 levels deep.

Request Syntax

response = client.put_events(
    Entries=[
        {
            'Time': datetime(2015, 1, 1),
            'Source': 'string',
            'Resources': [
                'string',
            ],
            'DetailType': 'string',
            'Detail': 'string',
            'EventBusName': 'string',
            'TraceHeader': 'string'
        },
    ],
    EndpointId='string'
)
Parameters:

  • Entries (list) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The entry that defines an event in your system. You can specify several parameters for the entry such as the source and type of the event, resources associated with the event, and so on.

    • (dict) –

      Represents an event to be submitted.

      • Time (datetime) –

        The time stamp of the event, per RFC3339. If no time stamp is provided, the time stamp of the PutEvents call is used.

      • Source (string) –

        The source of the event.

        Note

        Detail, DetailType, and Source are required for EventBridge to successfully send an event to an event bus. If you include event entries in a request that do not include each of those properties, EventBridge fails that entry. If you submit a request in which none of the entries have each of these properties, EventBridge fails the entire request.

      • Resources (list) –

        Amazon Web Services resources, identified by Amazon Resource Name (ARN), which the event primarily concerns. Any number, including zero, may be present.

        • (string) –

      • DetailType (string) –

        Free-form string, with a maximum of 128 characters, used to decide what fields to expect in the event detail.

        Note

        Detail, DetailType, and Source are required for EventBridge to successfully send an event to an event bus. If you include event entries in a request that do not include each of those properties, EventBridge fails that entry. If you submit a request in which none of the entries have each of these properties, EventBridge fails the entire request.

      • Detail (string) –

        A valid JSON object. There is no other schema imposed. The JSON object may contain fields and nested sub-objects.

        Note

        Detail, DetailType, and Source are required for EventBridge to successfully send an event to an event bus. If you include event entries in a request that do not include each of those properties, EventBridge fails that entry. If you submit a request in which none of the entries have each of these properties, EventBridge fails the entire request.

      • EventBusName (string) –

        The name or ARN of the event bus to receive the event. Only the rules that are associated with this event bus are used to match the event. If you omit this, the default event bus is used.

        Note

        If you’re using a global endpoint with a custom bus, you can enter either the name or Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the event bus in either the primary or secondary Region here. EventBridge then determines the corresponding event bus in the other Region based on the endpoint referenced by the EndpointId. Specifying the event bus ARN is preferred.

      • TraceHeader (string) –

        An X-Ray trace header, which is an http header (X-Amzn-Trace-Id) that contains the trace-id associated with the event.

        To learn more about X-Ray trace headers, see Tracing header in the X-Ray Developer Guide.

  • EndpointId (string) –

    The URL subdomain of the endpoint. For example, if the URL for Endpoint is https://abcde.veo.endpoints.event.amazonaws.com, then the EndpointId is abcde.veo.

    Warning

    When using Java, you must include auth-crt on the class path.

Response Structure

  • (dict) –

    • FailedEntryCount (integer) –

      The number of failed entries.

    • Entries (list) –

      The successfully and unsuccessfully ingested events results. If the ingestion was successful, the entry has the event ID in it. Otherwise, you can use the error code and error message to identify the problem with the entry.

      For each record, the index of the response element is the same as the index in the request array.

      • (dict) –

        Represents the results of an event submitted to an event bus.

        If the submission was successful, the entry has the event ID in it. Otherwise, you can use the error code and error message to identify the problem with the entry.

        For information about the errors that are common to all actions, see Common Errors.

        • EventId (string) –

          The ID of the event.

        • ErrorCode (string) –

          The error code that indicates why the event submission failed.

          Retryable errors include:

          • InternalFailure The request processing has failed because of an unknown error, exception or failure.

          • ThrottlingException The request was denied due to request throttling.

          Non-retryable errors include:

          • AccessDeniedException You do not have sufficient access to perform this action.

          • InvalidAccountIdException The account ID provided is not valid.

          • InvalidArgument A specified parameter is not valid.

          • MalformedDetail The JSON provided is not valid.

          • RedactionFailure Redacting the CloudTrail event failed.

          • NotAuthorizedForSourceException You do not have permissions to publish events with this source onto this event bus.

          • NotAuthorizedForDetailTypeException You do not have permissions to publish events with this detail type onto this event bus.

        • ErrorMessage (string) –

          The error message that explains why the event submission failed.
