Fields

The following fields are returned by SELECT queries:

NameDatatypeDescription
namestringA friendly name or description of the RegexMatchSet. You can't change Name after you create a RegexMatchSet. (pattern: <code>.\S.</code>)
regex_match_set_idstringThe RegexMatchSetId for a RegexMatchSet. You use RegexMatchSetId to get information about a RegexMatchSet (see GetRegexMatchSet), update a RegexMatchSet (see UpdateRegexMatchSet), insert a RegexMatchSet into a Rule or delete one from a Rule (see UpdateRule), and delete a RegexMatchSet from AWS WAF (see DeleteRegexMatchSet). RegexMatchSetId is returned by CreateRegexMatchSet and by ListRegexMatchSets. (pattern: <code>.\S.</code>)
regex_match_tuplesarrayContains an array of RegexMatchTuple objects. Each RegexMatchTuple object contains: The part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to inspect, such as a query string or the value of the User-Agent header. The identifier of the pattern (a regular expression) that you want AWS WAF to look for. For more information, see RegexPatternSet. Whether to perform any conversions on the request, such as converting it to lowercase, before inspecting it for the specified string.

get_regex_match_setselectregionThis is AWS WAF Classic 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. Returns the RegexMatchSet specified by RegexMatchSetId.

create_regex_match_setinsertregion, ChangeTokenThis is AWS WAF Classic 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. Creates a RegexMatchSet. You then use UpdateRegexMatchSet to identify the part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to inspect, such as the values of the User-Agent header or the query string. For example, you can create a RegexMatchSet that contains a RegexMatchTuple that looks for any requests with User-Agent headers that match a RegexPatternSet with pattern B[a@]dB[o0]t. You can then configure AWS WAF to reject those requests. To create and configure a RegexMatchSet, perform the following steps: Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of a CreateRegexMatchSet request. Submit a CreateRegexMatchSet request. Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of an UpdateRegexMatchSet request. Submit an UpdateRegexMatchSet request to specify the part of the request that you want AWS WAF to inspect (for example, the header or the URI) and the value, using a RegexPatternSet, that you want AWS WAF to watch for. For more information about how to use the AWS WAF API to allow or block HTTP requests, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide.

Permanently deletes a RegexMatchSet. You can't delete a RegexMatchSet if it's still used in any Rules or if it still includes any RegexMatchTuples objects (any filters). If you just want to remove a RegexMatchSet from a Rule, use UpdateRule. To permanently delete a RegexMatchSet, perform the following steps: Update the RegexMatchSet to remove filters, if any. For more information, see UpdateRegexMatchSet. Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of a DeleteRegexMatchSet request. Submit a DeleteRegexMatchSet request.
