--trail-name
(string)
Specifies the name of the trail or trail ARN. If you specify a trail name, the string must meet the following requirements:
Contain only ASCII letters (a-z, A-Z), numbers (0-9), periods (.), underscores (_), or dashes (-)
Start with a letter or number, and end with a letter or number
Be between 3 and 128 characters
Have no adjacent periods, underscores or dashes. Names like
my-_namespace
andmy--namespace
are not valid.Not be in IP address format (for example, 192.168.5.4)
If you specify a trail ARN, it must be in the format:
arn:aws:cloudtrail:us-east-2:123456789012:trail/MyTrail
--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.
--debug
(boolean)
Turn on debug logging.
--endpoint-url
(string)
Override command’s default URL with the given URL.
--no-verify-ssl
(boolean)
By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.
--no-paginate
(boolean)
Disable automatic pagination.
--output
(string)
The formatting style for command output.
json
text
table
yaml
yaml-stream
--query
(string)
A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.
--profile
(string)
Use a specific profile from your credential file.
--region
(string)
The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.
--version
(string)
Display the version of this tool.
--color
(string)
Turn on/off color output.
on
off
auto
--no-sign-request
(boolean)
Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.
--ca-bundle
(string)
The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.
--cli-read-timeout
(int)
The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
--cli-connect-timeout
(int)
The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
--cli-binary-format
(string)
The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb://
will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format
setting. When using file://
the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format
.
base64
raw-in-base64-out
--no-cli-pager
(boolean)
Disable cli pager for output.
--cli-auto-prompt
(boolean)
Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
--no-cli-auto-prompt
(boolean)
Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
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 view the event selector settings for a trail
The following get-event-selectors
command returns the settings for Trail1
:
aws cloudtrail get-event-selectors --trail-name Trail1
Output:
{
"EventSelectors": [
{
"IncludeManagementEvents": true,
"DataResources": [],
"ReadWriteType": "All"
}
],
"TrailARN": "arn:aws:cloudtrail:us-east-1:123456789012:trail/Trail1"
}
TrailARN -> (string)
The specified trail ARN that has the event selectors.
EventSelectors -> (list)
The event selectors that are configured for the trail.
(structure)
Use event selectors to further specify the management and data event settings for your trail. By default, trails created without specific event selectors will be configured to log all read and write management events, and no data events. When an event occurs in your account, CloudTrail evaluates the event selector for all trails. For each trail, if the event matches any event selector, the trail processes and logs the event. If the event doesn’t match any event selector, the trail doesn’t log the event.
You can configure up to five event selectors for a trail.
You cannot apply both event selectors and advanced event selectors to a trail.
ReadWriteType -> (string)
Specify if you want your trail to log read-only events, write-only events, or all. For example, the EC2
GetConsoleOutput
is a read-only API operation andRunInstances
is a write-only API operation.By default, the value is
All
.IncludeManagementEvents -> (boolean)
Specify if you want your event selector to include management events for your trail.
For more information, see Management Events in the CloudTrail User Guide .
By default, the value is
true
.The first copy of management events is free. You are charged for additional copies of management events that you are logging on any subsequent trail in the same region. For more information about CloudTrail pricing, see CloudTrail Pricing .
DataResources -> (list)
CloudTrail supports data event logging for Amazon S3 objects, Lambda functions, and Amazon DynamoDB tables with basic event selectors. You can specify up to 250 resources for an individual event selector, but the total number of data resources cannot exceed 250 across all event selectors in a trail. This limit does not apply if you configure resource logging for all data events.
For more information, see Data Events and Limits in CloudTrail in the CloudTrail User Guide .
(structure)
The Amazon S3 buckets, Lambda functions, or Amazon DynamoDB tables that you specify in your event selectors for your trail to log data events. Data events provide information about the resource operations performed on or within a resource itself. These are also known as data plane operations. You can specify up to 250 data resources for a trail.
Note
The total number of allowed data resources is 250. This number can be distributed between 1 and 5 event selectors, but the total cannot exceed 250 across all selectors.
If you are using advanced event selectors, the maximum total number of values for all conditions, across all advanced event selectors for the trail, is 500.
The following example demonstrates how logging works when you configure logging of all data events for an S3 bucket named
bucket-1
. In this example, the CloudTrail user specified an empty prefix, and the option to log bothRead
andWrite
data events.
A user uploads an image file to
bucket-1
.The
PutObject
API operation is an Amazon S3 object-level API. It is recorded as a data event in CloudTrail. Because the CloudTrail user specified an S3 bucket with an empty prefix, events that occur on any object in that bucket are logged. The trail processes and logs the event.A user uploads an object to an Amazon S3 bucket named
arn:aws:s3:::bucket-2
.The
PutObject
API operation occurred for an object in an S3 bucket that the CloudTrail user didn’t specify for the trail. The trail doesn’t log the event.The following example demonstrates how logging works when you configure logging of Lambda data events for a Lambda function named MyLambdaFunction , but not for all Lambda functions.
A user runs a script that includes a call to the MyLambdaFunction function and the MyOtherLambdaFunction function.
The
Invoke
API operation on MyLambdaFunction is an Lambda API. It is recorded as a data event in CloudTrail. Because the CloudTrail user specified logging data events for MyLambdaFunction , any invocations of that function are logged. The trail processes and logs the event.The
Invoke
API operation on MyOtherLambdaFunction is an Lambda API. Because the CloudTrail user did not specify logging data events for all Lambda functions, theInvoke
operation for MyOtherLambdaFunction does not match the function specified for the trail. The trail doesn’t log the event.Type -> (string)
The resource type in which you want to log data events. You can specify the following basic event selector resource types:
AWS::S3::Object
AWS::Lambda::Function
AWS::DynamoDB::Table
The following resource types are also available through advanced event selectors. Basic event selector resource types are valid in advanced event selectors, but advanced event selector resource types are not valid in basic event selectors. For more information, see AdvancedFieldSelector$Field .
AWS::S3Outposts::Object
AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node
AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint
AWS::EC2::Snapshot
AWS::S3::AccessPoint
AWS::DynamoDB::Stream
AWS::Glue::Table
Values -> (list)
An array of Amazon Resource Name (ARN) strings or partial ARN strings for the specified objects.
To log data events for all objects in all S3 buckets in your Amazon Web Services account, specify the prefix as
arn:aws:s3
.Note
This also enables logging of data event activity performed by any user or role in your Amazon Web Services account, even if that activity is performed on a bucket that belongs to another Amazon Web Services account.
To log data events for all objects in an S3 bucket, specify the bucket and an empty object prefix such as
arn:aws:s3:::bucket-1/
. The trail logs data events for all objects in this S3 bucket.To log data events for specific objects, specify the S3 bucket and object prefix such as
arn:aws:s3:::bucket-1/example-images
. The trail logs data events for objects in this S3 bucket that match the prefix.To log data events for all Lambda functions in your Amazon Web Services account, specify the prefix as
arn:aws:lambda
.Note
This also enables logging of
Invoke
activity performed by any user or role in your Amazon Web Services account, even if that activity is performed on a function that belongs to another Amazon Web Services account.
To log data events for a specific Lambda function, specify the function ARN.
Note
Lambda function ARNs are exact. For example, if you specify a function ARN arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111111:function:helloworld , data events will only be logged for arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111111:function:helloworld . They will not be logged for arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111111:function:helloworld2 .
To log data events for all DynamoDB tables in your Amazon Web Services account, specify the prefix as
arn:aws:dynamodb
.(string)
ExcludeManagementEventSources -> (list)
An optional list of service event sources from which you do not want management events to be logged on your trail. In this release, the list can be empty (disables the filter), or it can filter out Key Management Service or Amazon RDS Data API events by containing
kms.amazonaws.com
orrdsdata.amazonaws.com
. By default,ExcludeManagementEventSources
is empty, and KMS and Amazon RDS Data API events are logged to your trail. You can exclude management event sources only in regions that support the event source.(string)
AdvancedEventSelectors -> (list)
The advanced event selectors that are configured for the trail.
(structure)
Advanced event selectors let you create fine-grained selectors for the following CloudTrail event record fields. They help you control costs by logging only those events that are important to you. For more information about advanced event selectors, see Logging data events for trails in the CloudTrail User Guide .
readOnly
eventSource
eventName
eventCategory
resources.type
resources.ARN
You cannot apply both event selectors and advanced event selectors to a trail.
Name -> (string)
An optional, descriptive name for an advanced event selector, such as “Log data events for only two S3 buckets”.
FieldSelectors -> (list)
Contains all selector statements in an advanced event selector.
(structure)
A single selector statement in an advanced event selector.
Field -> (string)
A field in an event record on which to filter events to be logged. Supported fields include
readOnly
,eventCategory
,eventSource
(for management events),eventName
,resources.type
, andresources.ARN
.
**
readOnly
** - Optional. Can be set toEquals
a value oftrue
orfalse
. If you do not add this field, CloudTrail logs bothread
andwrite
events. A value oftrue
logs onlyread
events. A value offalse
logs onlywrite
events.**
eventSource
** - For filtering management events only. This can be set only toNotEquals
kms.amazonaws.com
.**
eventName
** - Can use any operator. You can use it to filter in or filter out any data event logged to CloudTrail, such asPutBucket
orGetSnapshotBlock
. You can have multiple values for this field, separated by commas.**
eventCategory
** - This is required. It must be set toEquals
, and the value must beManagement
orData
.**
resources.type
** - This field is required.resources.type
can only use theEquals
operator, and the value can be one of the following:
AWS::S3::Object
AWS::Lambda::Function
AWS::DynamoDB::Table
AWS::S3Outposts::Object
AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node
AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint
AWS::EC2::Snapshot
AWS::S3::AccessPoint
AWS::DynamoDB::Stream
AWS::Glue::Table
You can have only one
resources.type
field per selector. To log data events on more than one resource type, add another selector.
**
resources.ARN
** - You can use any operator withresources.ARN
, but if you useEquals
orNotEquals
, the value must exactly match the ARN of a valid resource of the type you’ve specified in the template as the value of resources.type. For example, if resources.type equalsAWS::S3::Object
, the ARN must be in one of the following formats. To log all data events for all objects in a specific S3 bucket, use theStartsWith
operator, and include only the bucket ARN as the matching value. The trailing slash is intentional; do not exclude it. Replace the text between less than and greater than symbols (<>) with resource-specific information.
arn:<partition>:s3:::<bucket_name>/
arn:<partition>:s3:::<bucket_name>/<object_path>/
When
resources.type
equalsAWS::S3::AccessPoint
, and the operator is set toEquals
orNotEquals
, the ARN must be in one of the following formats. To log events on all objects in an S3 access point, we recommend that you use only the access point ARN, don’t include the object path, and use theStartsWith
orNotStartsWith
operators.
arn:<partition>:s3:<region>:<account_ID>:accesspoint/<access_point_name>
arn:<partition>:s3:<region>:<account_ID>:accesspoint/<access_point_name>/object/<object_path>
When resources.type equals
AWS::Lambda::Function
, and the operator is set toEquals
orNotEquals
, the ARN must be in the following format:
arn:<partition>:lambda:<region>:<account_ID>:function:<function_name>
When resources.type equals
AWS::DynamoDB::Table
, and the operator is set toEquals
orNotEquals
, the ARN must be in the following format:
arn:<partition>:dynamodb:<region>:<account_ID>:table/<table_name>
When
resources.type
equalsAWS::S3Outposts::Object
, and the operator is set toEquals
orNotEquals
, the ARN must be in the following format:
arn:<partition>:s3-outposts:<region>:<account_ID>:<object_path>
When
resources.type
equalsAWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node
, and the operator is set toEquals
orNotEquals
, the ARN must be in the following format:
arn:<partition>:managedblockchain:<region>:<account_ID>:nodes/<node_ID>
When
resources.type
equalsAWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint
, and the operator is set toEquals
orNotEquals
, the ARN must be in the following format:
arn:<partition>:s3-object-lambda:<region>:<account_ID>:accesspoint/<access_point_name>
When
resources.type
equalsAWS::EC2::Snapshot
, and the operator is set toEquals
orNotEquals
, the ARN must be in the following format:
arn:<partition>:ec2:<region>::snapshot/<snapshot_ID>
When
resources.type
equalsAWS::DynamoDB::Stream
, and the operator is set toEquals
orNotEquals
, the ARN must be in the following format:
arn:<partition>:dynamodb:<region>:<account_ID>:table/<table_name>/stream/<date_time>
When
resources.type
equalsAWS::Glue::Table
, and the operator is set toEquals
orNotEquals
, the ARN must be in the following format:
arn:<partition>:glue:<region>:<account_ID>:table/<database_name>/<table_name>
