RegexMatchSet

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.

In a GetRegexMatchSet request, RegexMatchSet is a complex type that contains the RegexMatchSetId and Name of a RegexMatchSet, and the values that you specified when you updated the RegexMatchSet.

The values are contained in a RegexMatchTuple object, which specify the parts of web requests that you want AWS WAF to inspect and the values that you want AWS WAF to search for. If a RegexMatchSet contains more than one RegexMatchTuple object, a request needs to match the settings in only one ByteMatchTuple to be considered a match.

RegexMatchSetId

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.

  • 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.
