Overview

Name	regex_match_sets
Type	Resource
Id	aws.waf_regional.regex_match_sets

Fields

The following fields are returned by SELECT queries:

get_regex_match_set

Name	Datatype	Description
name	string	A friendly name or description of the RegexMatchSet. You can't change Name after you create a RegexMatchSet. (pattern: <code>.\S.</code>)
regex_match_set_id	string	The 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_tuples	array	Contains 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.

list_regex_match_sets

Name	Datatype	Description
next_marker	string	If you have more RegexMatchSet objects than the number that you specified for Limit in the request, the response includes a NextMarker value. To list more RegexMatchSet objects, submit another ListRegexMatchSets request, and specify the NextMarker value from the response in the NextMarker value in the next request. (pattern: <code>.\S.</code>)
regex_match_sets	array	An array of RegexMatchSetSummary objects.

Methods

The following methods are available for this resource:

Name	Accessible by	Required Params	Optional Params	Description
get_regex_match_set	select	region		This 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.
list_regex_match_sets	select	region		This 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 RegexMatchSetSummary objects.
create_regex_match_set	insert	region, Name, ChangeToken		This 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.
update_regex_match_set	update	region, RegexMatchSetId, Updates, ChangeToken		This 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 RegexMatchTuple objects (filters) in a RegexMatchSet. For each RegexMatchSetUpdate object, you specify the following values: Whether to insert or delete the object from the array. If you want to change a RegexMatchSetUpdate object, you delete the existing object and add a new one. The part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to inspectupdate, 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. For example, you can create a RegexPatternSet that matches any requests with User-Agent headers that contain the string 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: Create a RegexMatchSet. For more information, see CreateRegexMatchSet. 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 identifier of the RegexPatternSet that contain the regular expression patters 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.
delete_regex_match_set	delete	region		This 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 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.
