CreateSqlInjectionMatchSetCommand

Suggest an Edit

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 SqlInjectionMatchSet, which you use to allow, block, or count requests that contain snippets of SQL code in a specified part of web requests. AWS WAF searches for character sequences that are likely to be malicious strings.

To create and configure a SqlInjectionMatchSet, perform the following steps:

  1. Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of a CreateSqlInjectionMatchSet request.

  2. Submit a CreateSqlInjectionMatchSet request.

  3. Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of an UpdateSqlInjectionMatchSet request.

  4. Submit an UpdateSqlInjectionMatchSet request to specify the parts of web requests in which you want to allow, block, or count malicious 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 .

Example Syntax

Use a bare-bones client and the command you need to make an API call.

import { WAFRegionalClient, CreateSqlInjectionMatchSetCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-waf-regional"; // ES Modules import
// const { WAFRegionalClient, CreateSqlInjectionMatchSetCommand } = require("@aws-sdk/client-waf-regional"); // CommonJS import
const client = new WAFRegionalClient(config);
const input = { // CreateSqlInjectionMatchSetRequest
  Name: "STRING_VALUE", // required
  ChangeToken: "STRING_VALUE", // required
};
const command = new CreateSqlInjectionMatchSetCommand(input);
const response = await client.send(command);
// { // CreateSqlInjectionMatchSetResponse
//   SqlInjectionMatchSet: { // SqlInjectionMatchSet
//     SqlInjectionMatchSetId: "STRING_VALUE", // required
//     Name: "STRING_VALUE",
//     SqlInjectionMatchTuples: [ // SqlInjectionMatchTuples // required
//       { // SqlInjectionMatchTuple
//         FieldToMatch: { // FieldToMatch
//           Type: "URI" || "QUERY_STRING" || "HEADER" || "METHOD" || "BODY" || "SINGLE_QUERY_ARG" || "ALL_QUERY_ARGS", // required
//           Data: "STRING_VALUE",
//         },
//         TextTransformation: "NONE" || "COMPRESS_WHITE_SPACE" || "HTML_ENTITY_DECODE" || "LOWERCASE" || "CMD_LINE" || "URL_DECODE", // required
//       },
//     ],
//   },
//   ChangeToken: "STRING_VALUE",
// };

  • You tried to update a ByteMatchSet with a FieldToMatch Type other than HEADER, METHOD, QUERY_STRING, URI, or BODY.

  • You tried to update a ByteMatchSet with a Field of HEADER but no value for Data.

  • Your request references an ARN that is malformed, or corresponds to a resource with which a web ACL cannot be associated.
