modify-event-subscription¶

Description¶

Modifies an existing RDS event notification subscription. You can’t modify the source identifiers using this call. To change source identifiers for a subscription, use the AddSourceIdentifierToSubscription and RemoveSourceIdentifierFromSubscription calls.

You can see a list of the event categories for a given source type (SourceType ) in Events in the Amazon RDS User Guide or by using the DescribeEventCategories operation.

Synopsis¶

  modify-event-subscription
--subscription-name <value>
[--sns-topic-arn <value>]
[--source-type <value>]
[--event-categories <value>]
[--enabled | --no-enabled]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--subscription-name (string)

The name of the RDS event notification subscription.

--sns-topic-arn (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the SNS topic created for event notification. The ARN is created by Amazon SNS when you create a topic and subscribe to it.

--source-type (string)

The type of source that is generating the events. For example, if you want to be notified of events generated by a DB instance, you would set this parameter to db-instance. For RDS Proxy events, specify db-proxy . If this value isn’t specified, all events are returned.

Valid values: db-instance | db-cluster | db-parameter-group | db-security-group | db-snapshot | db-cluster-snapshot | db-proxy

--event-categories (list)

A list of event categories for a source type (SourceType ) that you want to subscribe to. You can see a list of the categories for a given source type in Events in the Amazon RDS User Guide or by using the DescribeEventCategories operation.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--enabled | --no-enabled (boolean)

A value that indicates whether to activate the subscription.

--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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To modify an event subscription

The following modify-event-subscription example disables the specified event subscription, so that it no longer publishes notifications to the specified Amazon Simple Notification Service topic.

aws rds modify-event-subscription \
    --subscription-name my-instance-events \
    --no-enabled

Output:

{
    "EventSubscription": {
        "EventCategoriesList": [
            "backup",
            "recovery"
        ],
        "CustomerAwsId": "123456789012",
        "SourceType": "db-instance",
        "SubscriptionCreationTime": "Tue Jul 31 23:22:01 UTC 2018",
        "EventSubscriptionArn": "arn:aws:rds:us-east-1:123456789012:es:my-instance-events",
        "SnsTopicArn": "arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:interesting-events",
        "CustSubscriptionId": "my-instance-events",
        "Status": "modifying",
        "Enabled": false
    }
}
