--name
(string)
The name of the set. You cannot change the name after you create the set.
--scope
(string)
Specifies whether this is for an AWS CloudFront distribution or for a regional application. A regional application can be an Application Load Balancer (ALB), an API Gateway REST API, or an AppSync GraphQL API.
To work with CloudFront, you must also specify the Region US East (N. Virginia) as follows:
CLI - Specify the Region when you use the CloudFront scope:
--scope=CLOUDFRONT --region=us-east-1
.API and SDKs - For all calls, use the Region endpoint us-east-1.
Possible values:
CLOUDFRONT
REGIONAL
--id
(string)
A unique identifier for the set. This ID is returned in the responses to create and list commands. You provide it to operations like update and delete.
--description
(string)
A description of the set that helps with identification. You cannot change the description of a set after you create it.
--regular-expression-list
(list)
(structure)

A single regular expression. This is used in a RegexPatternSet .
RegexString -> (string)
The string representing the regular expression.
Shorthand Syntax:
RegexString=string ...
JSON Syntax:
[
{
"RegexString": "string"
}
...
]
--lock-token
(string)
A token used for optimistic locking. AWS WAF returns a token to your get and list requests, to mark the state of the entity at the time of the request. To make changes to the entity associated with the token, you provide the token to operations like update and delete. AWS WAF uses the token to ensure that no changes have been made to the entity since you last retrieved it. If a change has been made, the update fails with a
WAFOptimisticLockException
. If this happens, perform another get, and use the new token returned by that operation.
--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.
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
To modify the settings for an existing regex pattern set
The following update-regex-pattern-set
updates the settings for the specified regex pattern set. This call requires an ID, which you can obtain from the call, list-regex-pattern-sets
, and a lock token which you can obtain from the calls, list-regex-pattern-sets
and get-regex-pattern-set
. This call also returns a lock token that you can use for a subsequent update.

--name ExampleRegex \
--scope REGIONAL \
--id a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111 \
--regular-expression-list RegexString="^.+$" \
--lock-token ed207e9c-82e9-4a77-aadd-81e6173ab7eb
Output:
{
"NextLockToken": "12ebc73e-fa68-417d-a9b8-2bdd761a4fa5"
}
For more information, see IP Sets and Regex Pattern Sets in the AWS WAF, AWS Firewall Manager, and AWS Shield Advanced Developer Guide.
NextLockToken -> (string)
A token used for optimistic locking. AWS WAF returns this token to your update requests. You use
NextLockToken
in the same manner as you useLockToken
.
