put-logging-configuration¶

Description¶

Note

This is the latest version of AWS WAF , named AWS WAFV2, released in November, 2019. For information, including how to migrate your AWS WAF resources from the prior release, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide .

Enables the specified LoggingConfiguration , to start logging from a web ACL, according to the configuration provided.

You can access information about all traffic that AWS WAF inspects using the following steps:

Create an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose. Create the data firehose with a PUT source and in the Region that you are operating. If you are capturing logs for Amazon CloudFront, always create the firehose in US East (N. Virginia). Give the data firehose a name that starts with the prefix aws-waf-logs- . For example, aws-waf-logs-us-east-2-analytics .

Note

Do not create the data firehose using a Kinesis stream as your source.

Associate that firehose to your web ACL using a PutLoggingConfiguration request.

When you successfully enable logging using a PutLoggingConfiguration request, AWS WAF will create a service linked role with the necessary permissions to write logs to the Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose. For more information, see Logging Web ACL Traffic Information in the AWS WAF Developer Guide .

Synopsis¶

  put-logging-configuration
--logging-configuration <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
[--cli-auto-prompt <value>]

Options¶

--logging-configuration (structure)

ResourceArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the web ACL that you want to associate with LogDestinationConfigs .

LogDestinationConfigs -> (list)

The Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose Amazon Resource Name (ARNs) that you want to associate with the web ACL.

(string)

RedactedFields -> (list)

The parts of the request that you want to keep out of the logs. For example, if you redact the cookie field, the cookie field in the firehose will be xxx .

(structure)

Note

This is the latest version of AWS WAF , named AWS WAFV2, released in November, 2019. For information, including how to migrate your AWS WAF resources from the prior release, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide .

The part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to inspect. Include the single FieldToMatch type that you want to inspect, with additional specifications as needed, according to the type. You specify a single request component in FieldToMatch for each rule statement that requires it. To inspect more than one component of a web request, create a separate rule statement for each component.

SingleHeader -> (structure)

Inspect a single header. Provide the name of the header to inspect, for example, User-Agent or Referer . This setting isn’t case sensitive.

Name -> (string)

The name of the query header to inspect.

SingleQueryArgument -> (structure)

Inspect a single query argument. Provide the name of the query argument to inspect, such as UserName or SalesRegion . The name can be up to 30 characters long and isn’t case sensitive.

This is used only to indicate the web request component for AWS WAF to inspect, in the FieldToMatch specification.

Name -> (string)

The name of the query argument to inspect.

AllQueryArguments -> (structure)

Inspect all query arguments.

UriPath -> (structure)

Inspect the request URI path. This is the part of a web request that identifies a resource, for example, /images/daily-ad.jpg .

QueryString -> (structure)

Inspect the query string. This is the part of a URL that appears after a ? character, if any.

Body -> (structure)

Inspect the request body, which immediately follows the request headers. This is the part of a request that contains any additional data that you want to send to your web server as the HTTP request body, such as data from a form.

Note that only the first 8 KB (8192 bytes) of the request body are forwarded to AWS WAF for inspection by the underlying host service. If you don’t need to inspect more than 8 KB, you can guarantee that you don’t allow additional bytes in by combining a statement that inspects the body of the web request, such as ByteMatchStatement or RegexPatternSetReferenceStatement , with a SizeConstraintStatement that enforces an 8 KB size limit on the body of the request. AWS WAF doesn’t support inspecting the entire contents of web requests whose bodies exceed the 8 KB limit.

Method -> (structure)

Inspect the HTTP method. The method indicates the type of operation that the request is asking the origin to perform.

JSON Syntax:

{
  "ResourceArn": "string",
  "LogDestinationConfigs": ["string", ...],
  "RedactedFields": [
    {
      "SingleHeader": {
        "Name": "string"
      },
      "SingleQueryArgument": {
        "Name": "string"
      },
      "AllQueryArguments": {

      },
      "UriPath": {

      },
      "QueryString": {

      },
      "Body": {

      },
      "Method": {

      }
    }
    ...
  ]
}

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean) Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

To add a logging configuration to a web ACL

The following put-logging-configuration adds the Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose logging configuration aws-waf-logs-custom-transformation to the specified web ACL, with no fields redacted from the logs.

aws wafv2 put-logging-configuration \
    --logging-configuration ResourceArn=arn:aws:wafv2:us-west-2:123456789012:regional/webacl/test-cli/a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111,LogDestinationConfigs=arn:aws:firehose:us-west-2:123456789012:deliverystream/aws-waf-logs-custom-transformation \
            --region us-west-2

Output:

{
    "LoggingConfiguration":{
        "ResourceArn":"arn:aws:wafv2:us-west-2:123456789012:regional/webacl/test-cli/a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111",
        "LogDestinationConfigs":[
            "arn:aws:firehose:us-west-2:123456789012:deliverystream/aws-waf-logs-custom-transformation"
        ]
    }
}
