size_constraint_sets

Creates, updates, deletes, gets or lists a size_constraint_sets resource.

Overview

Namesize_constraint_sets
TypeResource
Idaws.waf.size_constraint_sets

Fields

The following fields are returned by SELECT queries:

NameDatatypeDescription
namestringThe name, if any, of the SizeConstraintSet. (pattern: <code>.\S.</code>)
size_constraint_set_idstringA unique identifier for a SizeConstraintSet. You use SizeConstraintSetId to get information about a SizeConstraintSet (see GetSizeConstraintSet), update a SizeConstraintSet (see UpdateSizeConstraintSet), insert a SizeConstraintSet into a Rule or delete one from a Rule (see UpdateRule), and delete a SizeConstraintSet from AWS WAF (see DeleteSizeConstraintSet). SizeConstraintSetId is returned by CreateSizeConstraintSet and by ListSizeConstraintSets. (pattern: <code>.\S.</code>)
size_constraintsarraySpecifies the parts of web requests that you want to inspect the size of.

Methods

The following methods are available for this resource:

NameAccessible byRequired ParamsOptional ParamsDescription
get_size_constraint_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 SizeConstraintSet specified by SizeConstraintSetId.
list_size_constraint_setsselectregionThis 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 an array of SizeConstraintSetSummary objects.
create_size_constraint_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 SizeConstraintSet. You then use UpdateSizeConstraintSet to identify the part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to check for length, such as the length of the User-Agent header or the length of the query string. For example, you can create a SizeConstraintSet that matches any requests that have a query string that is longer than 100 bytes. You can then configure AWS WAF to reject those requests. To create and configure a SizeConstraintSet, perform the following steps: Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of a CreateSizeConstraintSet request. Submit a CreateSizeConstraintSet request. Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of an UpdateSizeConstraintSet request. Submit an UpdateSizeConstraintSet 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 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.
update_size_constraint_setupdateregion, SizeConstraintSetId, ChangeToken, UpdatesThis 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. Inserts or deletes SizeConstraint objects (filters) in a SizeConstraintSet. For each SizeConstraint object, you specify the following values: Whether to insert or delete the object from the array. If you want to change a SizeConstraintSetUpdate object, you delete the existing object and add a new one. The part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to evaluate, such as the length of a query string or the length of the User-Agent header. Whether to perform any transformations on the request, such as converting it to lowercase, before checking its length. Note that transformations of the request body are not supported because the AWS resource forwards only the first 8192 bytes of your request to AWS WAF. You can only specify a single type of TextTransformation. A ComparisonOperator used for evaluating the selected part of the request against the specified Size, such as equals, greater than, less than, and so on. The length, in bytes, that you want AWS WAF to watch for in selected part of the request. The length is computed after applying the transformation. For example, you can add a SizeConstraintSetUpdate object that matches web requests in which the length of the User-Agent header is greater than 100 bytes. You can then configure AWS WAF to block those requests. To create and configure a SizeConstraintSet, perform the following steps: Create a SizeConstraintSet. For more information, see CreateSizeConstraintSet. Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of an UpdateSizeConstraintSet request. Submit an UpdateSizeConstraintSet 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 that you want AWS WAF to watch for.

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