Note: 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 ByteMatchSet.
You then use "UpdateByteMatchSet" 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 ByteMatchSet that matches any requests with User-Agent headers that contain the string BadBot.
You can then configure AWS WAF to reject those requests.
To create and configure a ByteMatchSet, perform the following steps:
- Use "GetChangeToken" to get the change token that you provide in the
ChangeTokenparameter of aCreateByteMatchSetrequest. - Submit a
CreateByteMatchSetrequest. - Use
GetChangeTokento get the change token that you provide in theChangeTokenparameter of anUpdateByteMatchSetrequest. - Submit an "UpdateByteMatchSet" 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.
Note: 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 an "GeoMatchSet", which you use to specify which web requests you want to allow or block based on the country that the requests originate from.
For example, if you're receiving a lot of requests from one or more countries and you want to block the requests, you can create an GeoMatchSet that contains those countries and then configure AWS WAF to block the requests.
To create and configure a GeoMatchSet, perform the following steps:
- Use "GetChangeToken" to get the change token that you provide in the
ChangeTokenparameter of aCreateGeoMatchSetrequest. - Submit a
CreateGeoMatchSetrequest. - Use
GetChangeTokento get the change token that you provide in theChangeTokenparameter of an "UpdateGeoMatchSet" request. - Submit an
UpdateGeoMatchSetSetrequest to specify the countries 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.
Note: 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 an "IPSet", which you use to specify which web requests that you want to allow or block based on the IP addresses that the requests originate from.
For example, if you're receiving a lot of requests from one or more individual IP addresses or one or more ranges of IP addresses and you want to block the requests, you can create an IPSet that contains those IP addresses and then configure AWS WAF to block the requests.
To create and configure an IPSet, perform the following steps:
- Use "GetChangeToken" to get the change token that you provide in the
ChangeTokenparameter of aCreateIPSetrequest. - Submit a
CreateIPSetrequest. - Use
GetChangeTokento get the change token that you provide in theChangeTokenparameter of an "UpdateIPSet" request. - Submit an
UpdateIPSetrequest to specify the IP addresses 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.
Note: 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 "RateBasedRule".
The RateBasedRule contains a RateLimit, which specifies the maximum number of requests that AWS WAF allows from a specified IP address in a five-minute period.
The RateBasedRule also contains the IPSet objects, ByteMatchSet objects, and other predicates that identify the requests that you want to count or block if these requests exceed the RateLimit.
If you add more than one predicate to a RateBasedRule, a request not only must exceed the RateLimit, but it also must match all the conditions to be counted or blocked.
For example, suppose you add the following to a RateBasedRule:
- An
IPSetthat matches the IP address192.0.2.44/32 - A
ByteMatchSetthat matchesBadBotin theUser-Agentheader
Further, you specify a RateLimit of 1,000.
You then add the RateBasedRule to a WebACL and specify that you want to block requests that meet the conditions in the rule.
For a request to be blocked, it must come from the IP address 192.0.2.44 and the User-Agent header in the request must contain the value BadBot.
Further, requests that match these two conditions must be received at a rate of more than 1,000 requests every five minutes.
If both conditions are met and the rate is exceeded, AWS WAF blocks the requests.
If the rate drops below 1,000 for a five-minute period, AWS WAF no longer blocks the requests.
As a second example, suppose you want to limit requests to a particular page on your site.
To do this, you could add the following to a RateBasedRule:
- A
ByteMatchSetwithFieldToMatchofURI - A
PositionalConstraintofSTARTS_WITH - A
TargetStringoflogin
Further, you specify a RateLimit of 1,000.
By adding this RateBasedRule to a WebACL, you could limit requests to your login page without affecting the rest of your site.
To create and configure a RateBasedRule, perform the following steps:
- Create and update the predicates that you want to include in the rule. For more information, see "CreateByteMatchSet", "CreateIPSet", and "CreateSqlInjectionMatchSet".
- Use "GetChangeToken" to get the change token that you provide in the
ChangeTokenparameter of aCreateRulerequest. - Submit a
CreateRateBasedRulerequest. - Use
GetChangeTokento get the change token that you provide in theChangeTokenparameter of an "UpdateRule" request. - Submit an
UpdateRateBasedRulerequest to specify the predicates that you want to include in the rule. - Create and update a
WebACLthat contains theRateBasedRule. For more information, see "CreateWebACL".
For more information about how to use the AWS WAF API to allow or block HTTP requests, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide.
Note: 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
ChangeTokenparameter of aCreateRegexMatchSetrequest. - Submit a
CreateRegexMatchSetrequest. - Use
GetChangeTokento get the change token that you provide in theChangeTokenparameter of anUpdateRegexMatchSetrequest. - 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.
Note: 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 RegexPatternSet.
You then use "UpdateRegexPatternSet" to specify the regular expression (regex) pattern that you want AWS WAF to search for, such as B[a@]dB[o0]t.
You can then configure AWS WAF to reject those requests.
To create and configure a RegexPatternSet, perform the following steps:
- Use "GetChangeToken" to get the change token that you provide in the
ChangeTokenparameter of aCreateRegexPatternSetrequest. - Submit a
CreateRegexPatternSetrequest. - Use
GetChangeTokento get the change token that you provide in theChangeTokenparameter of anUpdateRegexPatternSetrequest. - Submit an "UpdateRegexPatternSet" request to specify the string that you want AWS WAF to watch for.

Creates a Rule, which contains the IPSet objects, ByteMatchSet objects, and other predicates that identify the requests that you want to block.
If you add more than one predicate to a Rule, a request must match all of the specifications to be allowed or blocked.
For example, suppose that you add the following to a Rule:
- An
IPSetthat matches the IP address192.0.2.44/32 - A
ByteMatchSetthat matchesBadBotin theUser-Agentheader
You then add the Rule to a WebACL and specify that you want to blocks requests that satisfy the Rule.
For a request to be blocked, it must come from the IP address 192.0.2.44 and the User-Agent header in the request must contain the value BadBot.
To create and configure a Rule, perform the following steps:
- Create and update the predicates that you want to include in the
Rule. For more information, see "CreateByteMatchSet", "CreateIPSet", and "CreateSqlInjectionMatchSet". - Use "GetChangeToken" to get the change token that you provide in the
ChangeTokenparameter of aCreateRulerequest. - Submit a
CreateRulerequest. - Use
GetChangeTokento get the change token that you provide in theChangeTokenparameter of an "UpdateRule" request. - Submit an
UpdateRulerequest to specify the predicates that you want to include in theRule. - Create and update a
WebACLthat contains theRule. For more information, see "CreateWebACL".

A rule group is a collection of predefined rules that you add to a web ACL.
You use "UpdateRuleGroup" to add rules to the rule group.
Rule groups are subject to the following limits:
- Three rule groups per account. You can request an increase to this limit by contacting customer support.
- One rule group per web ACL.
- Ten rules per rule group.

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
ChangeTokenparameter of aCreateSizeConstraintSetrequest. - Submit a
CreateSizeConstraintSetrequest. - Use
GetChangeTokento get the change token that you provide in theChangeTokenparameter of anUpdateSizeConstraintSetrequest. - 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.

Creates a WebACL, which contains the Rules that identify the CloudFront web requests that you want to allow, block, or count.
AWS WAF evaluates Rules in order based on the value of Priority for each Rule.
You also specify a default action, either ALLOW or BLOCK.
If a web request doesn't match any of the Rules in a WebACL, AWS WAF responds to the request with the default action.
To create and configure a WebACL, perform the following steps:
- Create and update the
ByteMatchSetobjects and other predicates that you want to include inRules. For more information, see "CreateByteMatchSet", "UpdateByteMatchSet", "CreateIPSet", "UpdateIPSet", "CreateSqlInjectionMatchSet", and "UpdateSqlInjectionMatchSet". - Create and update the

When you want to create, update, or delete AWS WAF objects, get a change token and include the change token in the create, update, or delete request. Change tokens ensure that your application doesn't submit conflicting requests to AWS WAF.
Each create, update, or delete request must use a unique change token.
If your application submits a GetChangeToken request and then submits a second GetChangeToken request before submitting a create, update, or delete request, the second GetChangeToken request returns the same value as the first GetChangeToken request.
When you use a change token in a create, update, or delete request, the status of the change token changes to PENDING, which indicates that AWS WAF is propagating the change to all AWS WAF servers.
Use GetChangeTokenStatus to determine the status of your change token.

Associates a "LoggingConfiguration" with a specified web ACL.
You can access information about all traffic that AWS WAF inspects using the following steps:
- Create an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose.
Create the data firehose with a PUT source and in the region that you are operating.
However, if you are capturing logs for Amazon CloudFront, always create the firehose in US East (N.
Virginia).
Note:
Do not create the data firehose using a
Kinesis streamas your source. - Associate that firehose to your web ACL using a
PutLoggingConfigurationrequest.
When you successfully enable logging using a PutLoggingConfiguration request, AWS WAF will create a service linked role with the necessary permissions to write logs to the Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose.
For more information, see Logging Web ACL Traffic Information in the AWS WAF Developer Guide.

Inserts or deletes "ByteMatchTuple" objects (filters) in a "ByteMatchSet".
For each ByteMatchTuple object, you specify the following values:
- Whether to insert or delete the object from the array.
If you want to change a
ByteMatchSetUpdateobject, you delete the existing object and add a new one. - The part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to inspect, such as a query string or the value of the
User-Agentheader. - The bytes (typically a string that corresponds with ASCII characters) that you want AWS WAF to look for.
For more information, including how you specify the values for the AWS WAF API and the AWS CLI or SDKs, see
TargetStringin the "ByteMatchTuple" data type. - Where to look, such as at the beginning or the end of a query string.
- 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 add a ByteMatchSetUpdate object that matches web requests in which User-Agent headers contain the string BadBot.
You can then configure AWS WAF to block those requests.
To create and configure a ByteMatchSet, perform the following steps:
- Create a
ByteMatchSet.For more information, see "CreateByteMatchSet". - Use "GetChangeToken" to get the change token that you provide in the
ChangeTokenparameter of anUpdateByteMatchSetrequest. - Submit an
UpdateByteMatchSetrequest 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.
Note: 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 "GeoMatchConstraint" objects in an GeoMatchSet.
For each GeoMatchConstraint object, you specify the following values:
- Whether to insert or delete the object from the array.
If you want to change an
GeoMatchConstraintobject, you delete the existing object and add a new one. - The
Type. The only valid value forTypeisCountry. - The
Value, which is a two character code for the country to add to theGeoMatchConstraintobject. Valid codes are listed in "GeoMatchConstraint$Value".
To create and configure an GeoMatchSet, perform the following steps:
- Submit a "CreateGeoMatchSet" request.
- Use "GetChangeToken" to get the change token that you provide in the
ChangeTokenparameter of an "UpdateGeoMatchSet" request. - Submit an
UpdateGeoMatchSetrequest to specify the country that you want AWS WAF to watch for.
When you update an GeoMatchSet, you specify the country that you want to add and/or the country that you want to delete.
If you want to change a country, you delete the existing country and add the new one.
For more information about how to use the AWS WAF API to allow or block HTTP requests, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide.
Note: 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 "IPSetDescriptor" objects in an IPSet.
For each IPSetDescriptor object, you specify the following values:
- Whether to insert or delete the object from the array.
If you want to change an
IPSetDescriptorobject, you delete the existing object and add a new one. - The IP address version,
IPv4orIPv6. - The IP address in CIDR notation, for example,
192.0.2.0/24(for the range of IP addresses from192.0.2.0to192.0.2.255) or192.0.2.44/32(for the individual IP address192.0.2.44).
AWS WAF supports IPv4 address ranges: /8 and any range between /16 through /32. AWS WAF supports IPv6 address ranges: /24, /32, /48, /56, /64, and /128. For more information about CIDR notation, see the Wikipedia entry Classless Inter-Domain Routing.
IPv6 addresses can be represented using any of the following formats:
- 1111:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0111/128
- 1111:0:0:0:0:0:0:0111/128
- 1111::0111/128
- 1111::111/128
You use an IPSet to specify which web requests you want to allow or block based on the IP addresses that the requests originated from.
For example, if you're receiving a lot of requests from one or a small number of IP addresses and you want to block the requests, you can create an IPSet that specifies those IP addresses, and then configure AWS WAF to block the requests.
To create and configure an IPSet, perform the following steps:
- Submit a "CreateIPSet" request.
- Use "GetChangeToken" to get the change token that you provide in the
ChangeTokenparameter of an "UpdateIPSet" request. - Submit an
UpdateIPSetrequest to specify the IP addresses that you want AWS WAF to watch for.
When you update an IPSet, you specify the IP addresses that you want to add and/or the IP addresses that you want to delete.
If you want to change an IP address, you delete the existing IP address and add the new one.
You can insert a maximum of 1000 addresses in a single request.
For more information about how to use the AWS WAF API to allow or block HTTP requests, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide.
Note: 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 "Predicate" objects in a rule and updates the RateLimit in the rule.
Each Predicate object identifies a predicate, such as a "ByteMatchSet" or an "IPSet", that specifies the web requests that you want to block or count.
The RateLimit specifies the number of requests every five minutes that triggers the rule.
If you add more than one predicate to a RateBasedRule, a request must match all the predicates and exceed the RateLimit to be counted or blocked.
For example, suppose you add the following to a RateBasedRule:
- An
IPSetthat matches the IP address192.0.2.44/32 - A
ByteMatchSetthat matchesBadBotin theUser-Agentheader
Further, you specify a RateLimit of 1,000.
You then add the RateBasedRule to a WebACL and specify that you want to block requests that satisfy the rule.
For a request to be blocked, it must come from the IP address 192.0.2.44 and the User-Agent header in the request must contain the value BadBot.
Further, requests that match these two conditions much be received at a rate of more than 1,000 every five minutes.
If the rate drops below this limit, AWS WAF no longer blocks the requests.
As a second example, suppose you want to limit requests to a particular page on your site.
To do this, you could add the following to a RateBasedRule:
- A
ByteMatchSetwithFieldToMatchofURI - A
PositionalConstraintofSTARTS_WITH - A
TargetStringoflogin
Further, you specify a RateLimit of 1,000.
By adding this RateBasedRule to a WebACL, you could limit requests to your login page without affecting the rest of your site.

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
RegexMatchSetUpdateobject, 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-Agentheader. - 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
ChangeTokenparameter of anUpdateRegexMatchSetrequest. - Submit an
UpdateRegexMatchSetrequest 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 theRegexPatternSetthat contain the regular expression patters you want AWS WAF to watch for.

Inserts or deletes RegexPatternString objects in a "RegexPatternSet".
For each RegexPatternString object, you specify the following values:
- Whether to insert or delete the
RegexPatternString. - The regular expression pattern that you want to insert or delete. For more information, see "RegexPatternSet".
For example, you can create a RegexPatternString such as B[a@]dB[o0]t.
AWS WAF will match this RegexPatternString to:
- BadBot
- BadB0t
- B@dBot
- B@dB0t
To create and configure a RegexPatternSet, perform the following steps:
- Create a
RegexPatternSet.For more information, see "CreateRegexPatternSet". - Use "GetChangeToken" to get the change token that you provide in the
ChangeTokenparameter of anUpdateRegexPatternSetrequest. - Submit an
UpdateRegexPatternSetrequest to specify the regular expression pattern that you want AWS WAF to watch for.

Inserts or deletes "Predicate" objects in a Rule.
Each Predicate object identifies a predicate, such as a "ByteMatchSet" or an "IPSet", that specifies the web requests that you want to allow, block, or count.
If you add more than one predicate to a Rule, a request must match all of the specifications to be allowed, blocked, or counted.
For example, suppose that you add the following to a Rule:
- A
ByteMatchSetthat matches the valueBadBotin theUser-Agentheader - An
IPSetthat matches the IP address192.0.2.44
You then add the Rule to a WebACL and specify that you want to block requests that satisfy the Rule.
For a request to be blocked, the User-Agent header in the request must contain the value BadBot and the request must originate from the IP address 192.0.2.44.
To create and configure a Rule, perform the following steps:
- Create and update the predicates that you want to include in the
Rule. - Create the
Rule. See "CreateRule". - Use
GetChangeTokento get the change token that you provide in theChangeTokenparameter of an "UpdateRule" request. - Submit an
UpdateRulerequest to add predicates to theRule. - Create and update a
WebACLthat contains theRule. See "CreateWebACL".
If you want to replace one ByteMatchSet or IPSet with another, you delete the existing one and add the new one.
For more information about how to use the AWS WAF API to allow or block HTTP requests, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide.
Note: 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 "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
SizeConstraintSetUpdateobject, 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-Agentheader. - 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
8192bytes of your request to AWS WAF. You can only specify a single type of TextTransformation. - A
ComparisonOperatorused for evaluating the selected part of the request against the specifiedSize, 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
ChangeTokenparameter of anUpdateSizeConstraintSetrequest. - Submit an

For each SqlInjectionMatchTuple object, you specify the following values:
Action: Whether to insert the object into or delete the object from the array. To change aSqlInjectionMatchTuple, you delete the existing object and add a new one.FieldToMatch: The part of web requests that you want AWS WAF to inspect and, if you want AWS WAF to inspect a header or custom query parameter, the name of the header or parameter.TextTransformation: Which text transformation, if any, to perform on the web request before inspecting the request for snippets of malicious SQL code. You can only specify a single type of TextTransformation.
You use SqlInjectionMatchSet objects to specify which CloudFront requests that you want to allow, block, or count.
For example, if you're receiving requests that contain snippets of SQL code in the query string and you want to block the requests, you can create a SqlInjectionMatchSet with the applicable settings, and then configure AWS WAF to block the requests.
To create and configure a SqlInjectionMatchSet, perform the following steps:
- Submit a "CreateSqlInjectionMatchSet" request.
- Use "GetChangeToken" to get the change token that you provide in the
ChangeTokenparameter of an "UpdateIPSet" request. - Submit an
UpdateSqlInjectionMatchSetrequest to specify the parts of web requests that you want AWS WAF to inspect for snippets of SQL code.
For more information about how to use the AWS WAF API to allow or block HTTP requests, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide.
Note: 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 "ActivatedRule" objects in a WebACL.
Each Rule identifies web requests that you want to allow, block, or count.
When you update a WebACL, you specify the following values:
- A default action for the
WebACL, eitherALLOWorBLOCK. AWS WAF performs the default action if a request doesn't match the criteria in any of theRulesin aWebACL. - The
Rulesthat you want to add or delete. If you want to replace oneRulewith another, you delete the existingRuleand add the new one. - For each
Rule, whether you want AWS WAF to allow requests, block requests, or count requests that match the conditions in theRule. - The order in which you want AWS WAF to evaluate the
Rulesin aWebACL. If you add more than oneRuleto aWebACL, AWS WAF evaluates each request against theRulesin order based on the value ofPriority. (TheRulethat has the lowest value forPriorityis evaluated first.) When a web request matches all the predicates (such asByteMatchSetsandIPSets) in aRule, AWS WAF immediately takes the corresponding action, allow or block, and doesn't evaluate the request against the remainingRulesin theWebACL, if any.
To create and configure a WebACL, perform the following steps:
- Create and update the predicates that you want to include in
Rules. For more information, see "CreateByteMatchSet", "UpdateByteMatchSet", "CreateIPSet", "UpdateIPSet", "CreateSqlInjectionMatchSet", and "UpdateSqlInjectionMatchSet". - Create and update the
Rulesthat you want to include in theWebACL. For more information, see "CreateRule" and "UpdateRule". - Create a
WebACL. See "CreateWebACL". - Use
GetChangeTokento get the change token that you provide in theChangeTokenparameter of an "UpdateWebACL" request. - Submit an
UpdateWebACLrequest to specify theRulesthat you want to include in theWebACL, to specify the default action, and to associate theWebACLwith a CloudFront distribution. TheActivatedRulecan be a rule group. If you specify a rule group as yourActivatedRule, you can exclude specific rules from that rule group. If you already have a rule group associated with a web ACL and want to submit anUpdateWebACLrequest to exclude certain rules from that rule group, you must first remove the rule group from the web ACL, the re-insert it again, specifying the excluded rules. For details, see "ActivatedRule$ExcludedRules" .
Be aware that if you try to add a RATE_BASED rule to a web ACL without setting the rule type when first creating the rule, the "UpdateWebACL" request will fail because the request tries to add a REGULAR rule (the default rule type) with the specified ID, which does not exist.

Inserts or deletes "XssMatchTuple" objects (filters) in an "XssMatchSet".
For each XssMatchTuple object, you specify the following values:
Action: Whether to insert the object into or delete the object from the array. To change anXssMatchTuple, you delete the existing object and add a new one.FieldToMatch: The part of web requests that you want AWS WAF to inspect and, if you want AWS WAF to inspect a header or custom query parameter, the name of the header or parameter.TextTransformation: Which text transformation, if any, to perform on the web request before inspecting the request for cross-site scripting attacks. You can only specify a single type of TextTransformation.
You use XssMatchSet objects to specify which CloudFront requests that you want to allow, block, or count.
For example, if you're receiving requests that contain cross-site scripting attacks in the request body and you want to block the requests, you can create an XssMatchSet with the applicable settings, and then configure AWS WAF to block the requests.
To create and configure an XssMatchSet, perform the following steps:
- Submit a "CreateXssMatchSet" request.
- Use "GetChangeToken" to get the change token that you provide in the
ChangeTokenparameter of an "UpdateIPSet" request. - Submit an
UpdateXssMatchSetrequest to specify the parts of web requests that you want AWS WAF to inspect for cross-site scripting attacks.
