disassociate-resource-types

Description

Removes all resource types specified in the ResourceTypes list from the RecordingGroup of configuration recorder and excludes these resource types when recording.

For this operation, the configuration recorder must use a RecordingStrategy that is either INCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES or EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES .

--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.

Global Options

--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. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--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.

Output

ConfigurationRecorder -> (structure)

Records configuration changes to the resource types in scope.

For more information about the configuration recorder, see ` Working with the Configuration Recorder https://docs.aws.amazon.com/config/latest/developerguide/stop-start-recorder.html`__ in the Config Developer Guide .

arn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the specified configuration recorder.

name -> (string)

The name of the configuration recorder.

For customer managed configuration recorders, Config automatically assigns the name of “default” when creating a configuration recorder if you do not specify a name at creation time.

For service-linked configuration recorders, Config automatically assigns a name that has the prefix “AWS “ to a new service-linked configuration recorder.

Note

Changing the name of a configuration recorder

To change the name of the customer managed configuration recorder, you must delete it and create a new customer managed configuration recorder with a new name.

You cannot change the name of a service-linked configuration recorder.

roleARN -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM role assumed by Config and used by the specified configuration recorder.

Note

The server will reject a request without a defined ``roleARN`` for the configuration recorder

While the API model does not require this field, the server will reject a request without a defined roleARN for the configuration recorder.

Policies and compliance results

IAM policies and other policies managed in Organizations can impact whether Config has permissions to record configuration changes for your resources. Additionally, rules directly evaluate the configuration of a resource and rules don’t take into account these policies when running evaluations. Make sure that the policies in effect align with how you intend to use Config.

Keep Minimum Permisions When Reusing an IAM role

If you use an Amazon Web Services service that uses Config, such as Security Hub or Control Tower, and an IAM role has already been created, make sure that the IAM role that you use when setting up Config keeps the same minimum permissions as the pre-existing IAM role. You must do this to ensure that the other Amazon Web Services service continues to run as expected.

For example, if Control Tower has an IAM role that allows Config to read S3 objects, make sure that the same permissions are granted to the IAM role you use when setting up Config. Otherwise, it may interfere with how Control Tower operates.

The service-linked IAM role for Config must be used for service-linked configuration recorders

For service-linked configuration recorders, you must use the service-linked IAM role for Config: AWSServiceRoleForConfig .

recordingGroup -> (structure)

Specifies which resource types are in scope for the configuration recorder to record.

Note

High Number of Config Evaluations

You might notice increased activity in your account during your initial month recording with Config when compared to subsequent months. During the initial bootstrapping process, Config runs evaluations on all the resources in your account that you have selected for Config to record.

If you are running ephemeral workloads, you may see increased activity from Config as it records configuration changes associated with creating and deleting these temporary resources. An ephemeral workload is a temporary use of computing resources that are loaded and run when needed. Examples include Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) Spot Instances, Amazon EMR jobs, and Auto Scaling.

If you want to avoid the increased activity from running ephemeral workloads, you can set up the configuration recorder to exclude these resource types from being recorded, or run these types of workloads in a separate account with Config turned off to avoid increased configuration recording and rule evaluations.

allSupported -> (boolean)

Specifies whether Config records configuration changes for all supported resource types, excluding the global IAM resource types.

If you set this field to true , when Config adds support for a new resource type, Config starts recording resources of that type automatically.

If you set this field to true , you cannot enumerate specific resource types to record in the resourceTypes field of RecordingGroup , or to exclude in the resourceTypes field of ExclusionByResourceTypes .

Note

Region availability

Check Resource Coverage by Region Availability to see if a resource type is supported in the Amazon Web Services Region where you set up Config.

includeGlobalResourceTypes -> (boolean)

This option is a bundle which only applies to the global IAM resource types: IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed policies. These global IAM resource types can only be recorded by Config in Regions where Config was available before February 2022. You cannot be record the global IAM resouce types in Regions supported by Config after February 2022. For a list of those Regions, see Recording Amazon Web Services Resources | Global Resources .

Warning

Aurora global clusters are recorded in all enabled Regions

The AWS::RDS::GlobalCluster resource type will be recorded in all supported Config Regions where the configuration recorder is enabled, even if includeGlobalResourceTypes is set``false`` . The includeGlobalResourceTypes option is a bundle which only applies to IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed policies.

If you do not want to record AWS::RDS::GlobalCluster in all enabled Regions, use one of the following recording strategies:

• Record all current and future resource types with exclusions (EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES ), or
• Record specific resource types (INCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES ).

For more information, see Selecting Which Resources are Recorded in the Config developer guide .

Warning

includeGlobalResourceTypes and the exclusion recording strategy

The includeGlobalResourceTypes field has no impact on the EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES recording strategy. This means that the global IAM resource types (IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed policies) will not be automatically added as exclusions for exclusionByResourceTypes when includeGlobalResourceTypes is set to false .

The includeGlobalResourceTypes field should only be used to modify the AllSupported field, as the default for the AllSupported field is to record configuration changes for all supported resource types excluding the global IAM resource types. To include the global IAM resource types when AllSupported is set to true , make sure to set includeGlobalResourceTypes to true .

To exclude the global IAM resource types for the EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES recording strategy, you need to manually add them to the resourceTypes field of exclusionByResourceTypes .

Note

Required and optional fields

Before you set this field to true , set the allSupported field of RecordingGroup to true . Optionally, you can set the useOnly field of RecordingStrategy to ALL_SUPPORTED_RESOURCE_TYPES .

Note

Overriding fields

If you set this field to false but list global IAM resource types in the resourceTypes field of RecordingGroup , Config will still record configuration changes for those specified resource types regardless of if you set the includeGlobalResourceTypes field to false.

If you do not want to record configuration changes to the global IAM resource types (IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed policies), make sure to not list them in the resourceTypes field in addition to setting the includeGlobalResourceTypes field to false.

resourceTypes -> (list)

A comma-separated list that specifies which resource types Config records.

For a list of valid resourceTypes values, see the Resource Type Value column in Supported Amazon Web Services resource Types in the Config developer guide .

Note

Required and optional fields

Optionally, you can set the useOnly field of RecordingStrategy to INCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES .

To record all configuration changes, set the allSupported field of RecordingGroup to true , and either omit this field or don’t specify any resource types in this field. If you set the allSupported field to false and specify values for resourceTypes , when Config adds support for a new type of resource, it will not record resources of that type unless you manually add that type to your recording group.

Note

Region availability

Before specifying a resource type for Config to track, check Resource Coverage by Region Availability to see if the resource type is supported in the Amazon Web Services Region where you set up Config. If a resource type is supported by Config in at least one Region, you can enable the recording of that resource type in all Regions supported by Config, even if the specified resource type is not supported in the Amazon Web Services Region where you set up Config.

(string)

exclusionByResourceTypes -> (structure)

An object that specifies how Config excludes resource types from being recorded by the configuration recorder.

Note

Required fields

To use this option, you must set the useOnly field of RecordingStrategy to EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES .

resourceTypes -> (list)

A comma-separated list of resource types to exclude from recording by the configuration recorder.

(string)

recordingStrategy -> (structure)

An object that specifies the recording strategy for the configuration recorder.

• If you set the useOnly field of RecordingStrategy to ALL_SUPPORTED_RESOURCE_TYPES , Config records configuration changes for all supported resource types, excluding the global IAM resource types. You also must set the allSupported field of RecordingGroup to true . When Config adds support for a new resource type, Config automatically starts recording resources of that type.
• If you set the useOnly field of RecordingStrategy to INCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES , Config records configuration changes for only the resource types you specify in the resourceTypes field of RecordingGroup .
• If you set the useOnly field of RecordingStrategy to EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES , Config records configuration changes for all supported resource types except the resource types that you specify to exclude from being recorded in the resourceTypes field of ExclusionByResourceTypes .

Note

Required and optional fields

The recordingStrategy field is optional when you set the allSupported field of RecordingGroup to true .

The recordingStrategy field is optional when you list resource types in the resourceTypes field of RecordingGroup .

The recordingStrategy field is required if you list resource types to exclude from recording in the resourceTypes field of ExclusionByResourceTypes .

Note

Overriding fields

If you choose EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES for the recording strategy, the exclusionByResourceTypes field will override other properties in the request.

For example, even if you set includeGlobalResourceTypes to false, global IAM resource types will still be automatically recorded in this option unless those resource types are specifically listed as exclusions in the resourceTypes field of exclusionByResourceTypes .

Note

Global resources types and the resource exclusion recording strategy

By default, if you choose the EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES recording strategy, when Config adds support for a new resource type in the Region where you set up the configuration recorder, including global resource types, Config starts recording resources of that type automatically.

Unless specifically listed as exclusions, AWS::RDS::GlobalCluster will be recorded automatically in all supported Config Regions were the configuration recorder is enabled.

IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed policies will be recorded in the Region where you set up the configuration recorder if that is a Region where Config was available before February 2022. You cannot be record the global IAM resouce types in Regions supported by Config after February 2022. For a list of those Regions, see Recording Amazon Web Services Resources | Global Resources .

useOnly -> (string)

The recording strategy for the configuration recorder.

• If you set this option to ALL_SUPPORTED_RESOURCE_TYPES , Config records configuration changes for all supported resource types, excluding the global IAM resource types. You also must set the allSupported field of RecordingGroup to true . When Config adds support for a new resource type, Config automatically starts recording resources of that type. For a list of supported resource types, see Supported Resource Types in the Config developer guide .
• If you set this option to INCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES , Config records configuration changes for only the resource types that you specify in the resourceTypes field of RecordingGroup .
• If you set this option to EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES , Config records configuration changes for all supported resource types, except the resource types that you specify to exclude from being recorded in the resourceTypes field of ExclusionByResourceTypes .

Note

Required and optional fields

The recordingStrategy field is optional when you set the allSupported field of RecordingGroup to true .

The recordingStrategy field is optional when you list resource types in the resourceTypes field of RecordingGroup .

The recordingStrategy field is required if you list resource types to exclude from recording in the resourceTypes field of ExclusionByResourceTypes .

Note

Overriding fields

If you choose EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES for the recording strategy, the exclusionByResourceTypes field will override other properties in the request.

For example, even if you set includeGlobalResourceTypes to false, global IAM resource types will still be automatically recorded in this option unless those resource types are specifically listed as exclusions in the resourceTypes field of exclusionByResourceTypes .

Global resource types and the exclusion recording strategy

By default, if you choose the EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES recording strategy, when Config adds support for a new resource type in the Region where you set up the configuration recorder, including global resource types, Config starts recording resources of that type automatically.

Unless specifically listed as exclusions, AWS::RDS::GlobalCluster will be recorded automatically in all supported Config Regions were the configuration recorder is enabled.

IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed policies will be recorded in the Region where you set up the configuration recorder if that is a Region where Config was available before February 2022. You cannot be record the global IAM resouce types in Regions supported by Config after February 2022. This list where you cannot record the global IAM resource types includes the following Regions:

• Asia Pacific (Hyderabad)
• Asia Pacific (Melbourne)
• Canada West (Calgary)
• Europe (Spain)
• Europe (Zurich)
• Israel (Tel Aviv)
• Middle East (UAE)

recordingMode -> (structure)

Specifies the default recording frequency for the configuration recorder. Config supports Continuous recording and Daily recording .

• Continuous recording allows you to record configuration changes continuously whenever a change occurs.
• Daily recording allows you to receive a configuration item (CI) representing the most recent state of your resources over the last 24-hour period, only if it’s different from the previous CI recorded.

Note

Some resource types require continuous recording

Firewall Manager depends on continuous recording to monitor your resources. If you are using Firewall Manager, it is recommended that you set the recording frequency to Continuous.

You can also override the recording frequency for specific resource types.

recordingFrequency -> (string)

The default recording frequency that Config uses to record configuration changes.

Warning

Daily recording cannot be specified for the following resource types:

• AWS::Config::ResourceCompliance
• AWS::Config::ConformancePackCompliance
• AWS::Config::ConfigurationRecorder

For the allSupported (ALL_SUPPORTED_RESOURCE_TYPES ) recording strategy, these resource types will be set to Continuous recording.

recordingModeOverrides -> (list)

An array of recordingModeOverride objects for you to specify your overrides for the recording mode. The recordingModeOverride object in the recordingModeOverrides array consists of three fields: a description , the new recordingFrequency , and an array of resourceTypes to override.

(structure)

An object for you to specify your overrides for the recording mode.

description -> (string)

A description that you provide for the override.

resourceTypes -> (list)

A comma-separated list that specifies which resource types Config includes in the override.

Warning

Daily recording cannot be specified for the following resource types:

• AWS::Config::ResourceCompliance
• AWS::Config::ConformancePackCompliance
• AWS::Config::ConfigurationRecorder

(string)

recordingFrequency -> (string)

The recording frequency that will be applied to all the resource types specified in the override.

• Continuous recording allows you to record configuration changes continuously whenever a change occurs.
• Daily recording allows you to receive a configuration item (CI) representing the most recent state of your resources over the last 24-hour period, only if it’s different from the previous CI recorded.

Note

Firewall Manager depends on continuous recording to monitor your resources. If you are using Firewall Manager, it is recommended that you set the recording frequency to Continuous.

recordingScope -> (string)

Specifies whether the ConfigurationItems in scope for the specified configuration recorder are recorded for free (INTERNAL ) or if it impacts the costs to your bill (PAID ).
