put_delivery_destination#

CloudWatchLogs.Client.put_delivery_destination(**kwargs)#

Creates or updates a logical delivery destination. A delivery destination is an Amazon Web Services resource that represents an Amazon Web Services service that logs can be sent to. CloudWatch Logs, Amazon S3, and Firehose are supported as logs delivery destinations.

To configure logs delivery between a supported Amazon Web Services service and a destination, you must do the following:

  • Create a delivery source, which is a logical object that represents the resource that is actually sending the logs. For more information, see PutDeliverySource.

  • Use PutDeliveryDestination to create a delivery destination, which is a logical object that represents the actual delivery destination.

  • If you are delivering logs cross-account, you must use PutDeliveryDestinationPolicy in the destination account to assign an IAM policy to the destination. This policy allows delivery to that destination.

  • Use CreateDelivery to create a delivery by pairing exactly one delivery source and one delivery destination. For more information, see CreateDelivery.

You can configure a single delivery source to send logs to multiple destinations by creating multiple deliveries. You can also create multiple deliveries to configure multiple delivery sources to send logs to the same delivery destination.

Only some Amazon Web Services services support being configured as a delivery source. These services are listed as Supported [V2 Permissions] in the table at Enabling logging from Amazon Web Services services.

If you use this operation to update an existing delivery destination, all the current delivery destination parameters are overwritten with the new parameter values that you specify.
