Description

Note

This is AWS WAF Classic Regional documentation. For more information, see AWS WAF Classic in the developer guide.

For the latest version of AWS WAF , use the AWS WAFV2 API and see the AWS WAF Developer Guide . With the latest version, AWS WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use.

Associates a web ACL with a resource, either an application load balancer or Amazon API Gateway stage.

See also: AWS API Documentation

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  associate-web-acl
--web-acl-id <value>
--resource-arn <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--web-acl-id (string)

A unique identifier (ID) for the web ACL.

--resource-arn (string)

The ARN (Amazon Resource Name) of the resource to be protected, either an application load balancer or Amazon API Gateway stage.

The ARN should be in one of the following formats:

  • For an Application Load Balancer: ``arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:region :account-id :loadbalancer/app/load-balancer-name /load-balancer-id ``

  • For an Amazon API Gateway stage: ``arn:aws:apigateway:region ::/restapis/api-id /stages/stage-name ``

--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 associate a web ACL with a resource

The following associate-web-acl command associates a web ACL, specified by the web-acl-id, with a resource, specified by the resource-arn. The resource ARN can refer to either a application load balancer or an API Gateway:

aws waf-regional associate-web-acl \
    --web-acl-id a123fae4-b567-8e90-1234-5ab67ac8ca90 \
    --resource-arn 12cs345-67cd-890b-1cd2-c3a4567d89f1
