AWS::Lambda::Version

The AWS::Lambda::Version resource creates a version from the current code and configuration of a function. Use versions to create a snapshot of your function code and configuration that doesn't change.

Syntax

To declare this entity in your AWS CloudFormation template, use the following syntax:

JSON

{
  "Type" : "AWS::Lambda::Version",
  "Properties" : {
      "CodeSha256" : String,
      "Description" : String,
      "FunctionName" : String,
      "ProvisionedConcurrencyConfig" : ProvisionedConcurrencyConfiguration
    }
}

YAML

Type: AWS::Lambda::Version
Properties: 
  CodeSha256: String
  Description: String
  FunctionName: String
  ProvisionedConcurrencyConfig: 
    ProvisionedConcurrencyConfiguration

Properties

CodeSha256

Only publish a version if the hash value matches the value that's specified. Use this option to avoid publishing a version if the function code has changed since you last updated it.

Required: No

Type: String

Update requires: No interruption

Description

A description for the version to override the description in the function configuration.

Required: No

Type: String

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 256

Update requires: No interruption

FunctionName

The name of the Lambda function.

Name formats

• Function name - MyFunction.

• Function ARN - arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:123456789012:function:MyFunction.

• Partial ARN - 123456789012:function:MyFunction.

The length constraint applies only to the full ARN. If you specify only the function name, it is limited to 64 characters in length.

Required: Yes

Type: String

Minimum: 1

Maximum: 140

Pattern: (arn:(aws[a-zA-Z-]*)?:lambda:)?([a-z]{2}(-gov)?-[a-z]+-\d{1}:)?(\d{12}:)?(function:)?([a-zA-Z0-9-_]+)(:(\$LATEST|[a-zA-Z0-9-_]+))?
