Amazon CloudFront Construct Library ​

Amazon CloudFront is a web service that speeds up distribution of your static and dynamic web content, such as .html, .css, .js, and image files, to your users. CloudFront delivers your content through a worldwide network of data centers called edge locations. When a user requests content that you're serving with CloudFront, the user is routed to the edge location that provides the lowest latency, so that content is delivered with the best possible performance.

Distribution API ​

The Distribution API replaces the CloudFrontWebDistribution API which is now deprecated. The Distribution API is optimized for the most common use cases of CloudFront distributions (e.g., single origin and behavior, few customizations) while still providing the ability for more advanced use cases. The API focuses on simplicity for the common use cases, and convenience methods for creating the behaviors and origins necessary for more complex use cases.

Creating a distribution ​

CloudFront distributions deliver your content from one or more origins; an origin is the location where you store the original version of your content. Origins can be created from S3 buckets or a custom origin (HTTP server). Constructs to define origins are in the aws-cdk-lib/aws-cloudfront-origins module.

Each distribution has a default behavior which applies to all requests to that distribution, and routes requests to a primary origin. Additional behaviors may be specified for an origin with a given URL path pattern. Behaviors allow routing with multiple origins, controlling which HTTP methods to support, whether to require users to use HTTPS, and what query strings or cookies to forward to your origin, among other settings.

From an S3 Bucket ​

An S3 bucket can be added as an origin. An S3 bucket origin can either be configured as a standard bucket or as a website endpoint (see AWS docs for Using an S3 Bucket).

ts
// Creates a distribution from an S3 bucket with origin access control
const myBucket = new s3.Bucket(this, 'myBucket');
new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'myDist', {
  defaultBehavior: {
    origin: origins.S3BucketOrigin.withOriginAccessControl(myBucket) // Automatically creates a S3OriginAccessControl construct
  },
});
python
# Creates a distribution from an S3 bucket with origin access control
my_bucket = s3.Bucket(self, "myBucket")
cloudfront.Distribution(self, "myDist",
    default_behavior=cloudfront.BehaviorOptions(
        origin=origins.S3BucketOrigin.with_origin_access_control(my_bucket)
    )
)
java
// Creates a distribution from an S3 bucket with origin access control
Bucket myBucket = new Bucket(this, "myBucket");
Distribution.Builder.create(this, "myDist")
        .defaultBehavior(BehaviorOptions.builder()
                .origin(S3BucketOrigin.withOriginAccessControl(myBucket))
                .build())
        .build();
csharp
// Creates a distribution from an S3 bucket with origin access control
var myBucket = new Bucket(this, "myBucket");
new Distribution(this, "myDist", new DistributionProps {
    DefaultBehavior = new BehaviorOptions {
        Origin = S3BucketOrigin.WithOriginAccessControl(myBucket)
    }
});
go
// Creates a distribution from an S3 bucket with origin access control
myBucket := s3.NewBucket(this, jsii.String("myBucket"))
cloudfront.NewDistribution(this, jsii.String("myDist"), &DistributionProps{
	DefaultBehavior: &BehaviorOptions{
		Origin: origins.S3BucketOrigin_WithOriginAccessControl(myBucket),
	},
})

See the README of the aws-cdk-lib/aws-cloudfront-origins module for more information on setting up S3 origins and origin access control (OAC).

ELBv2 Load Balancer ​

An Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) v2 load balancer may be used as an origin. In order for a load balancer to serve as an origin, it must be publicly accessible (internetFacing is true). Both Application and Network load balancers are supported.

ts
// Creates a distribution from an ELBv2 load balancer
declare const vpc: ec2.Vpc;
// Create an application load balancer in a VPC. 'internetFacing' must be 'true'
// for CloudFront to access the load balancer and use it as an origin.
const lb = new elbv2.ApplicationLoadBalancer(this, 'LB', {
  vpc,
  internetFacing: true,
});
new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'myDist', {
  defaultBehavior: { origin: new origins.LoadBalancerV2Origin(lb) },
});
python
# Creates a distribution from an ELBv2 load balancer
# vpc: ec2.Vpc

# Create an application load balancer in a VPC. 'internetFacing' must be 'true'
# for CloudFront to access the load balancer and use it as an origin.
lb = elbv2.ApplicationLoadBalancer(self, "LB",
    vpc=vpc,
    internet_facing=True
)
cloudfront.Distribution(self, "myDist",
    default_behavior=cloudfront.BehaviorOptions(origin=origins.LoadBalancerV2Origin(lb))
)
java
// Creates a distribution from an ELBv2 load balancer
Vpc vpc;

// Create an application load balancer in a VPC. 'internetFacing' must be 'true'
// for CloudFront to access the load balancer and use it as an origin.
ApplicationLoadBalancer lb = ApplicationLoadBalancer.Builder.create(this, "LB")
        .vpc(vpc)
        .internetFacing(true)
        .build();
Distribution.Builder.create(this, "myDist")
        .defaultBehavior(BehaviorOptions.builder().origin(new LoadBalancerV2Origin(lb)).build())
        .build();
csharp
// Creates a distribution from an ELBv2 load balancer
Vpc vpc;

// Create an application load balancer in a VPC. 'internetFacing' must be 'true'
// for CloudFront to access the load balancer and use it as an origin.
var lb = new ApplicationLoadBalancer(this, "LB", new ApplicationLoadBalancerProps {
    Vpc = vpc,
    InternetFacing = true
});
new Distribution(this, "myDist", new DistributionProps {
    DefaultBehavior = new BehaviorOptions { Origin = new LoadBalancerV2Origin(lb) }
});
go
// Creates a distribution from an ELBv2 load balancer
var vpc Vpc

// Create an application load balancer in a VPC. 'internetFacing' must be 'true'
// for CloudFront to access the load balancer and use it as an origin.
lb := elbv2.NewApplicationLoadBalancer(this, jsii.String("LB"), &ApplicationLoadBalancerProps{
	Vpc: Vpc,
	InternetFacing: jsii.Boolean(true),
})
cloudfront.NewDistribution(this, jsii.String("myDist"), &DistributionProps{
	DefaultBehavior: &BehaviorOptions{
		Origin: origins.NewLoadBalancerV2Origin(lb),
	},
})

From an HTTP endpoint ​

Origins can also be created from any other HTTP endpoint, given the domain name, and optionally, other origin properties.

ts
// Creates a distribution from an HTTP endpoint
new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'myDist', {
  defaultBehavior: { origin: new origins.HttpOrigin('www.example.com') },
});
python
# Creates a distribution from an HTTP endpoint
cloudfront.Distribution(self, "myDist",
    default_behavior=cloudfront.BehaviorOptions(origin=origins.HttpOrigin("www.example.com"))
)
java
// Creates a distribution from an HTTP endpoint
// Creates a distribution from an HTTP endpoint
Distribution.Builder.create(this, "myDist")
        .defaultBehavior(BehaviorOptions.builder().origin(new HttpOrigin("www.example.com")).build())
        .build();
csharp
// Creates a distribution from an HTTP endpoint
// Creates a distribution from an HTTP endpoint
new Distribution(this, "myDist", new DistributionProps {
    DefaultBehavior = new BehaviorOptions { Origin = new HttpOrigin("www.example.com") }
});
go
// Creates a distribution from an HTTP endpoint
// Creates a distribution from an HTTP endpoint
cloudfront.NewDistribution(this, jsii.String("myDist"), &DistributionProps{
	DefaultBehavior: &BehaviorOptions{
		Origin: origins.NewHttpOrigin(jsii.String("www.example.com")),
	},
})

CloudFront SaaS Manager resources ​

Multi-tenant distribution and tenant providing ACM certificates ​

You can use Cloudfront to build multi-tenant distributions to house applications.

To create a multi-tenant distribution w/parameters, create a Distribution construct, and then update DistributionConfig in the CfnDistribution to use connectionMode: "tenant-only"

Then create a tenant

ts
// Create the simple Origin
const myBucket = new s3.Bucket(this, 'myBucket');
const s3Origin = origins.S3BucketOrigin.withOriginAccessControl(myBucket, {
    originAccessLevels: [cloudfront.AccessLevel.READ, cloudfront.AccessLevel.LIST],
});

// Create the Distribution construct
const myMultiTenantDistribution = new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'distribution', {
    defaultBehavior: {
        origin: s3Origin,
    },
    defaultRootObject: 'index.html', // recommended to specify
});

// Access the underlying L1 CfnDistribution to configure SaaS Manager properties which are not yet available in the L2 Distribution construct
const cfnDistribution = myMultiTenantDistribution.node.defaultChild as cloudfront.CfnDistribution;

const defaultCacheBehavior: cloudfront.CfnDistribution.DefaultCacheBehaviorProperty = {
    targetOriginId: myBucket.bucketArn,
    viewerProtocolPolicy: 'allow-all',
    compress: false,
    allowedMethods: ['GET', 'HEAD'],
    cachePolicyId: cloudfront.CachePolicy.CACHING_OPTIMIZED.cachePolicyId
};
// Create the updated distributionConfig
const distributionConfig: cloudfront.CfnDistribution.DistributionConfigProperty = {
    defaultCacheBehavior: defaultCacheBehavior,
    enabled: true,
    // the properties below are optional
    connectionMode: 'tenant-only',
    origins: [
        {
            id: myBucket.bucketArn,
            domainName: myBucket.bucketDomainName,
            s3OriginConfig: {},
            originPath: "/{{tenantName}}"
        },
    ],
    tenantConfig: {
        parameterDefinitions: [
            {
                definition: {
                    stringSchema: {
                        required: false,
                        // the properties below are optional
                        comment: 'tenantName',
                        defaultValue: 'root',
                    },
                },
                name: 'tenantName',
            },
        ],
    },
};

// Override the distribution configuration to enable multi-tenancy.
cfnDistribution.distributionConfig = distributionConfig;

// Create a distribution tenant using an existing ACM certificate
const cfnDistributionTenant = new cloudfront.CfnDistributionTenant(this, 'distribution-tenant', {
    distributionId: myMultiTenantDistribution.distributionId,
    domains: ['my-tenant.my.domain.com'],
    name: 'my-tenant',
    enabled: true,
    parameters: [ // Override the default 'tenantName' parameter (root) defined in the multi-tenant distribution.
        {

Start by creating a parent multi-tenant distribution, then create the distribution tenant.

Multi-tenant distribution and tenant with self-hosted certificate ​

A tenant with self-hosted domain validation is useful if you already have traffic to the domain and can't tolerate downtime during migration to multi-tenant architecture.

The tenant will be created, and the managed certificate will be awaiting validation of domain ownership. You can then validate domain ownership via http redirect or token file upload. More details here

Traffic won't be migrated until you update your hosted zone to point the tenant domain to the CloudFront RoutingEndpoint.

Start by creating a parent multi-tenant distribution

While CDK is deploying, it will attempt to validate domain ownership by confirming that a validation token is served directly from your domain, or via http redirect.

follow the steps here to complete domain setup before deploying this CDK stack, or while CDK is in the waiting state during tenant creation. Refer to the section "I have existing traffic"

A simple option for validating via http redirect, would be to add a rewrite rule like so to your server (Apache in this example)

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/\.well-known/pki-validation/(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://validation.us-east-1.acm-validations.aws/%{ENV:AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}/.well-known/pki-validation/%1 [R=301,L]

Then, when you are ready to accept traffic, follow the steps here using the RoutingEndpoint from above to configure DNS to point to CloudFront.

VPC origins ​

You can use CloudFront to deliver content from applications that are hosted in your virtual private cloud (VPC) private subnets. You can use Application Load Balancers (ALBs), Network Load Balancers (NLBs), and EC2 instances in private subnets as VPC origins.

Learn more about Restrict access with VPC origins.

See the README of the aws-cdk-lib/aws-cloudfront-origins module for more information on setting up VPC origins.

Domain Names and Certificates ​

When you create a distribution, CloudFront assigns a domain name for the distribution, for example: d111111abcdef8.cloudfront.net; this value can be retrieved from distribution.distributionDomainName. CloudFront distributions use a default certificate (*.cloudfront.net) to support HTTPS by default. If you want to use your own domain name, such as www.example.com, you must associate a certificate with your distribution that contains your domain name, and provide one (or more) domain names from the certificate for the distribution.

The certificate must be present in the AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) service in the US East (N. Virginia) region; the certificate may either be created by ACM, or created elsewhere and imported into ACM. When a certificate is used, the distribution will support HTTPS connections from SNI only and a minimum protocol version of TLSv1.2_2021 if the @aws-cdk/aws-cloudfront:defaultSecurityPolicyTLSv1.2_2021 feature flag is set, and TLSv1.2_2019 otherwise.

Moving an alternate domain name to a different distribution ​

When you try to add an alternate domain name to a distribution but the alternate domain name is already in use on a different distribution, you get a CNAMEAlreadyExists error (One or more of the CNAMEs you provided are already associated with a different resource).

In that case, you might want to move the existing alternate domain name from one distribution (the source distribution) to another (the target distribution). The following steps are an overview of the process. For more information, see Moving an alternate domain name to a different distribution.

  1. Deploy the stack with the target distribution. The certificate property must be specified but the domainNames should be absent.
  2. Move the alternate domain name by running CloudFront associate-alias command. For the example and preconditions, see the AWS documentation above.
  3. Specify the domainNames property with the alternative domain name, then deploy the stack again to resolve the drift at the alternative domain name.

Cross Region Certificates ​

This feature is currently experimental

You can enable the Stack property crossRegionReferences in order to access resources in a different stack and region. With this feature flag enabled it is possible to do something like creating a CloudFront distribution in us-east-2 and an ACM certificate in us-east-1.

Multiple Behaviors & Origins ​

Each distribution has a default behavior which applies to all requests to that distribution; additional behaviors may be specified for a given URL path pattern. Behaviors allow routing with multiple origins, controlling which HTTP methods to support, whether to require users to use HTTPS, and what query strings or cookies to forward to your origin, among others.

The properties of the default behavior can be adjusted as part of the distribution creation. The following example shows configuring the HTTP methods and viewer protocol policy of the cache.

ts
// Create a Distribution with configured HTTP methods and viewer protocol policy of the cache.
declare const myBucket: s3.Bucket;
const myWebDistribution = new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'myDist', {
  defaultBehavior: {
    origin: new origins.S3Origin(myBucket),
    allowedMethods: cloudfront.AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL,
    viewerProtocolPolicy: cloudfront.ViewerProtocolPolicy.REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS,
  },
});
python
# Create a Distribution with configured HTTP methods and viewer protocol policy of the cache.
# my_bucket: s3.Bucket

my_web_distribution = cloudfront.Distribution(self, "myDist",
    default_behavior=cloudfront.BehaviorOptions(
        origin=origins.S3Origin(my_bucket),
        allowed_methods=cloudfront.AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL,
        viewer_protocol_policy=cloudfront.ViewerProtocolPolicy.REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS
    )
)
java
// Create a Distribution with configured HTTP methods and viewer protocol policy of the cache.
Bucket myBucket;

Distribution myWebDistribution = Distribution.Builder.create(this, "myDist")
        .defaultBehavior(BehaviorOptions.builder()
                .origin(new S3Origin(myBucket))
                .allowedMethods(AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL)
                .viewerProtocolPolicy(ViewerProtocolPolicy.REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS)
                .build())
        .build();
csharp
// Create a Distribution with configured HTTP methods and viewer protocol policy of the cache.
Bucket myBucket;

var myWebDistribution = new Distribution(this, "myDist", new DistributionProps {
    DefaultBehavior = new BehaviorOptions {
        Origin = new S3Origin(myBucket),
        AllowedMethods = AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL,
        ViewerProtocolPolicy = ViewerProtocolPolicy.REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS
    }
});
go
// Create a Distribution with configured HTTP methods and viewer protocol policy of the cache.
var myBucket Bucket

myWebDistribution := cloudfront.NewDistribution(this, jsii.String("myDist"), &DistributionProps{
	DefaultBehavior: &BehaviorOptions{
		Origin: origins.NewS3Origin(myBucket),
		AllowedMethods: cloudfront.AllowedMethods_ALLOW_ALL(),
		ViewerProtocolPolicy: cloudfront.ViewerProtocolPolicy_REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS,
	},
})

Additional behaviors can be specified at creation, or added after the initial creation. Each additional behavior is associated with an origin, and enable customization for a specific set of resources based on a URL path pattern. For example, we can add a behavior to myWebDistribution to override the default viewer protocol policy for all of the images.

ts
// Add a behavior to a Distribution after initial creation.
declare const myBucket: s3.Bucket;
declare const myWebDistribution: cloudfront.Distribution;
myWebDistribution.addBehavior('/images/*.jpg', new origins.S3Origin(myBucket), {
  viewerProtocolPolicy: cloudfront.ViewerProtocolPolicy.REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS,
});
python
# Add a behavior to a Distribution after initial creation.
# my_bucket: s3.Bucket
# my_web_distribution: cloudfront.Distribution

my_web_distribution.add_behavior("/images/*.jpg", origins.S3Origin(my_bucket),
    viewer_protocol_policy=cloudfront.ViewerProtocolPolicy.REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS
)
java
// Add a behavior to a Distribution after initial creation.
Bucket myBucket;
Distribution myWebDistribution;

myWebDistribution.addBehavior("/images/*.jpg", new S3Origin(myBucket), AddBehaviorOptions.builder()
        .viewerProtocolPolicy(ViewerProtocolPolicy.REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS)
        .build());
csharp
// Add a behavior to a Distribution after initial creation.
Bucket myBucket;
Distribution myWebDistribution;

myWebDistribution.AddBehavior("/images/*.jpg", new S3Origin(myBucket), new AddBehaviorOptions {
    ViewerProtocolPolicy = ViewerProtocolPolicy.REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS
});
go
// Add a behavior to a Distribution after initial creation.
var myBucket Bucket
var myWebDistribution Distribution

myWebDistribution.AddBehavior(jsii.String("/images/*.jpg"), origins.NewS3Origin(myBucket), &AddBehaviorOptions{
	ViewerProtocolPolicy: cloudfront.ViewerProtocolPolicy_REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS,
})

These behaviors can also be specified at distribution creation time.

ts
// Create a Distribution with additional behaviors at creation time.
declare const myBucket: s3.Bucket;
const bucketOrigin = new origins.S3Origin(myBucket);
new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'myDist', {

		"/images/*.jpg": &BehaviorOptions{
			"origin": bucketOrigin,
			"viewerProtocolPolicy": cloudfront.ViewerProtocolPolicy_REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS,
		},
	},
})

Viewer Protocol Policy ​

Each behavior controls whether viewers may reach it over plaintext HTTP through its viewerProtocolPolicy. By default a behavior uses ViewerProtocolPolicy.ALLOW_ALL, which accepts both HTTP and HTTPS.

AWS recommends redirecting viewers to HTTPS, and AWS Security Hub control CloudFront.3 fails a distribution when the default behavior or any additional behavior uses allow-all. Enable the @aws-cdk/aws-cloudfront:defaultViewerProtocolPolicyRedirectToHttps feature flag to default every behavior to ViewerProtocolPolicy.REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS instead:

json
{
  "context": {
    "@aws-cdk/aws-cloudfront:defaultViewerProtocolPolicyRedirectToHttps": true
  }
}

The flag applies to the default behavior, to additionalBehaviors, and to behaviors added later with addBehavior(). Projects created by cdk init enable it automatically; existing apps keep ALLOW_ALL until they opt in.

An explicit viewerProtocolPolicy always wins over the flag, so an individual behavior can opt back out:

ts
declare const myBucket: s3.Bucket;
new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'myDist', {
  defaultBehavior: {
    origin: origins.S3BucketOrigin.withOriginAccessControl(myBucket),
    // Keeps accepting plaintext HTTP even when the feature flag is enabled.
    viewerProtocolPolicy: cloudfront.ViewerProtocolPolicy.ALLOW_ALL,
  },
});
python
# my_bucket: s3.Bucket

cloudfront.Distribution(self, "myDist",
    default_behavior=cloudfront.BehaviorOptions(
        origin=origins.S3BucketOrigin.with_origin_access_control(my_bucket),
        # Keeps accepting plaintext HTTP even when the feature flag is enabled.
        viewer_protocol_policy=cloudfront.ViewerProtocolPolicy.ALLOW_ALL
    )
)
java
Bucket myBucket;

Distribution.Builder.create(this, "myDist")
        .defaultBehavior(BehaviorOptions.builder()
                .origin(S3BucketOrigin.withOriginAccessControl(myBucket))
                // Keeps accepting plaintext HTTP even when the feature flag is enabled.
                .viewerProtocolPolicy(ViewerProtocolPolicy.ALLOW_ALL)
                .build())
        .build();
csharp
Bucket myBucket;

new Distribution(this, "myDist", new DistributionProps {
    DefaultBehavior = new BehaviorOptions {
        Origin = S3BucketOrigin.WithOriginAccessControl(myBucket),
        // Keeps accepting plaintext HTTP even when the feature flag is enabled.
        ViewerProtocolPolicy = ViewerProtocolPolicy.ALLOW_ALL
    }
});
go
var myBucket Bucket

cloudfront.NewDistribution(this, jsii.String("myDist"), &DistributionProps{
	DefaultBehavior: &BehaviorOptions{
		Origin: origins.S3BucketOrigin_WithOriginAccessControl(myBucket),
		// Keeps accepting plaintext HTTP even when the feature flag is enabled.
		ViewerProtocolPolicy: cloudfront.ViewerProtocolPolicy_ALLOW_ALL,
	},
})

Note that REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS answers an HTTP request with an HTTP 301 redirect, which the viewer then follows with a second request; that additional request is billable. To reject plaintext HTTP outright rather than redirecting it, use ViewerProtocolPolicy.HTTPS_ONLY.

Attaching WAF Web Acls ​

You can attach the AWS WAF web ACL to a CloudFront distribution.

To specify a web ACL created using the latest version of AWS WAF, use the ACL ARN, for example arn:aws:wafv2:us-east-1:123456789012:global/webacl/ExampleWebACL/473e64fd-f30b-4765-81a0-62ad96dd167a. The web ACL must be in the us-east-1 region.

To specify a web ACL created using AWS WAF Classic, use the ACL ID, for example 473e64fd-f30b-4765-81a0-62ad96dd167a.

ts
declare const bucketOrigin: origins.S3Origin;
declare const webAcl: wafv2.CfnWebACL;
const distribution = new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'Distribution', {
  defaultBehavior: { origin: bucketOrigin },
  webAclId: webAcl.attrArn,
});
python
# bucket_origin: origins.S3Origin
# web_acl: wafv2.CfnWebACL

distribution = cloudfront.Distribution(self, "Distribution",
    default_behavior=cloudfront.BehaviorOptions(origin=bucket_origin),
    web_acl_id=web_acl.attr_arn
)
java
S3Origin bucketOrigin;
CfnWebACL webAcl;

Distribution distribution = Distribution.Builder.create(this, "Distribution")
        .defaultBehavior(BehaviorOptions.builder().origin(bucketOrigin).build())
        .webAclId(webAcl.getAttrArn())
        .build();
csharp
S3Origin bucketOrigin;
CfnWebACL webAcl;

var distribution = new Distribution(this, "Distribution", new DistributionProps {
    DefaultBehavior = new BehaviorOptions { Origin = bucketOrigin },
    WebAclId = webAcl.AttrArn
});
go
var bucketOrigin S3Origin
var webAcl CfnWebACL

distribution := cloudfront.NewDistribution(this, jsii.String("Distribution"), &DistributionProps{
	DefaultBehavior: &BehaviorOptions{
		Origin: bucketOrigin,
	},
	WebAclId: webAcl.attrArn,
})

You can also attach a web ACL to a distribution after creation.

ts
declare const bucketOrigin: origins.S3Origin;
declare const webAcl: wafv2.CfnWebACL;
const distribution = new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'Distribution', {
  defaultBehavior: { origin: bucketOrigin },
});

distribution.attachWebAclId(webAcl.attrArn);
python
# bucket_origin: origins.S3Origin
# web_acl: wafv2.CfnWebACL

distribution = cloudfront.Distribution(self, "Distribution",
    default_behavior=cloudfront.BehaviorOptions(origin=bucket_origin)
)

distribution.attach_web_acl_id(web_acl.attr_arn)
java
S3Origin bucketOrigin;
CfnWebACL webAcl;

Distribution distribution = Distribution.Builder.create(this, "Distribution")
        .defaultBehavior(BehaviorOptions.builder().origin(bucketOrigin).build())
        .build();

distribution.attachWebAclId(webAcl.getAttrArn());
csharp
S3Origin bucketOrigin;
CfnWebACL webAcl;

var distribution = new Distribution(this, "Distribution", new DistributionProps {
    DefaultBehavior = new BehaviorOptions { Origin = bucketOrigin }
});

distribution.AttachWebAclId(webAcl.AttrArn);
go
var bucketOrigin S3Origin
var webAcl CfnWebACL

distribution := cloudfront.NewDistribution(this, jsii.String("Distribution"), &DistributionProps{
	DefaultBehavior: &BehaviorOptions{
		Origin: bucketOrigin,
	},
})

distribution.AttachWebAclId(webAcl.attrArn)

Customizing Cache Keys and TTLs with Cache Policies ​

You can use a cache policy to improve your cache hit ratio by controlling the values (URL query strings, HTTP headers, and cookies) that are included in the cache key, and/or adjusting how long items remain in the cache via the time-to-live (TTL) settings. CloudFront provides some predefined cache policies, known as managed policies, for common use cases. You can use these managed policies, or you can create your own cache policy that’s specific to your needs. See <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/controlling-the-cache-key.html> for more details.

Customizing Origin Requests with Origin Request Policies ​

When CloudFront makes a request to an origin, the URL path, request body (if present), and a few standard headers are included. Other information from the viewer request, such as URL query strings, HTTP headers, and cookies, is not included in the origin request by default. You can use an origin request policy to control the information that’s included in an origin request. CloudFront provides some predefined origin request policies, known as managed policies, for common use cases. You can use these managed policies, or you can create your own origin request policy that’s specific to your needs. See <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/controlling-origin-requests.html> for more details.

Customizing Response Headers with Response Headers Policies ​

You can configure CloudFront to add one or more HTTP headers to the responses that it sends to viewers (web browsers or other clients), without making any changes to the origin or writing any code. To specify the headers that CloudFront adds to HTTP responses, you use a response headers policy. CloudFront adds the headers regardless of whether it serves the object from the cache or has to retrieve the object from the origin. If the origin response includes one or more of the headers that’s in a response headers policy, the policy can specify whether CloudFront uses the header it received from the origin or overwrites it with the one in the policy. See <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/adding-response-headers.html>

NOTE

If xssProtection reportUri is specified, then modeBlock cannot be set to true.

Validating signed URLs or signed cookies with Trusted Key Groups ​

CloudFront Distribution supports validating signed URLs or signed cookies using key groups. When a cache behavior contains trusted key groups, CloudFront requires signed URLs or signed cookies for all requests that match the cache behavior.

Lambda@Edge ​

Lambda@Edge is an extension of AWS Lambda, a compute service that lets you execute functions that customize the content that CloudFront delivers. You can author Node.js or Python functions in the US East (N. Virginia) region, and then execute them in AWS locations globally that are closer to the viewer, without provisioning or managing servers. Lambda@Edge functions are associated with a specific behavior and event type. Lambda@Edge can be used to rewrite URLs, alter responses based on headers or cookies, or authorize requests based on headers or authorization tokens.

The following shows a Lambda@Edge function added to the default behavior and triggered on every request:

ts

	Runtime: lambda.Runtime_NODEJS_LATEST(),
	Handler: jsii.String("index.handler"),
	Code: lambda.Code_FromAsset(path.join(__dirname, jsii.String("lambda-handler"))),

cloudfront.NewDistribution(this, jsii.String("myDist"), &DistributionProps{

				EventType: cloudfront.LambdaEdgeEventType_VIEWER_REQUEST,
			},
		},
	},
})

Note: Lambda@Edge functions must be created in the us-east-1 region, regardless of the region of the CloudFront distribution and stack. To make it easier to request functions for Lambda@Edge, the EdgeFunction construct can be used. The EdgeFunction construct will automatically request a function in us-east-1, regardless of the region of the current stack. EdgeFunction has the same interface as Function and can be created and used interchangeably. Please note that using EdgeFunction requires that the us-east-1 region has been bootstrapped. See <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/latest/guide/bootstrapping.html> for more about bootstrapping regions.

If the stack is in us-east-1, a "normal" lambda.Function can be used instead of an EdgeFunction.

ts
// Using a lambda Function instead of an EdgeFunction for stacks in `us-east-`.
const myFunc = new lambda.Function(this, 'MyFunction', {
  runtime: lambda.Runtime.NODEJS_LATEST,
  handler: 'index.handler',
  code: lambda.Code.fromAsset(path.join(__dirname, 'lambda-handler')),
});
python
# Using a lambda Function instead of an EdgeFunction for stacks in `us-east-`.
my_func = lambda_.Function(self, "MyFunction",
    runtime=lambda_.Runtime.NODEJS_LATEST,
    handler="index.handler",
    code=lambda_.Code.from_asset(path.join(__dirname, "lambda-handler"))
)
java
// Using a lambda Function instead of an EdgeFunction for stacks in `us-east-`.
Function myFunc = Function.Builder.create(this, "MyFunction")
        .runtime(Runtime.NODEJS_LATEST)
        .handler("index.handler")
        .code(Code.fromAsset(join(__dirname, "lambda-handler")))
        .build();
csharp
// Using a lambda Function instead of an EdgeFunction for stacks in `us-east-`.
var myFunc = new Function(this, "MyFunction", new FunctionProps {
    Runtime = Runtime.NODEJS_LATEST,
    Handler = "index.handler",
    Code = Code.FromAsset(Join(__dirname, "lambda-handler"))
});
go
// Using a lambda Function instead of an EdgeFunction for stacks in `us-east-`.
myFunc := lambda.NewFunction(this, jsii.String("MyFunction"), &FunctionProps{
	Runtime: lambda.Runtime_NODEJS_LATEST(),
	Handler: jsii.String("index.handler"),
	Code: lambda.Code_FromAsset(path.join(__dirname, jsii.String("lambda-handler"))),
})

If the stack is not in us-east-1, and you need references from different applications on the same account, you can also set a specific stack ID for each Lambda@Edge.

ts
// Setting stackIds for EdgeFunctions that can be referenced from different applications
// on the same account.

  stackId: 'edge-lambda-stack-id-1',
});

  runtime: lambda.Runtime.NODEJS_LATEST,
  handler: 'index.handler',
  code: lambda.Code.fromAsset(path.join(__dirname, 'lambda-handler2')),
  stackId: 'edge-lambda-stack-id-2',
});

  },
});
python

cf_function = cloudfront.Function(self, "Function",
    code=cloudfront.FunctionCode.from_inline("function handler(event) { return event.request }"),
    runtime=cloudfront.FunctionRuntime.JS_2_0
)
cloudfront.Distribution(self, "distro",

                        .eventType(FunctionEventType.VIEWER_REQUEST)
                        .build()))
                .build())
        .build();

var cfFunction = new Function(this, "Function", new FunctionProps {
    Code = FunctionCode.FromInline("function handler(event) { return event.request }"),
    Runtime = FunctionRuntime.JS_2_0
});
new Distribution(this, "distro", new DistributionProps {
    DefaultBehavior = new BehaviorOptions {
        Origin = new S3Origin(s3Bucket),
        FunctionAssociations = new [] { new FunctionAssociation {

    }
});
go
var s3Bucket Bucket
// Add a cloudfront Function to a Distribution
cfFunction := cloudfront.NewFunction(this, jsii.String("Function"), &FunctionProps{

	},
})

It will auto-generate the name of the function and deploy it to the live stage.

Additionally, you can load the function's code from a file using the FunctionCode.fromFile() method.

If you set autoPublish to false, the function will not be automatically published to the LIVE stage when it’s created.

ts
new cloudfront.Function(this, 'Function', {
  code: cloudfront.FunctionCode.fromInline('function handler(event) { return event.request }'),
  runtime: cloudfront.FunctionRuntime.JS_2_0,

	Runtime: cloudfront.FunctionRuntime_JS_2_0(),
	AutoPublish: jsii.Boolean(false),
})

Runtime Version ​

CloudFront Functions support two runtime versions: cloudfront-js-1.0 and cloudfront-js-2.0. By default, new projects use cloudfront-js-2.0, which is the recommended runtime version with enhanced functionality.

You can explicitly specify the runtime version:

ts
// Use v2.0 explicitly (same as default for new projects)
new cloudfront.Function(this, 'Function', {
  code: cloudfront.FunctionCode.fromInline('function handler(event) { return event.request }'),
  runtime: cloudfront.FunctionRuntime.JS_2_0,
});

// Use v1.0 for legacy compatibility
new cloudfront.Function(this, 'Function', {
  code: cloudfront.FunctionCode.fromInline('function handler(event) { return event.request }'),
  runtime: cloudfront.FunctionRuntime.JS_1_0,
});
python
# Use v2.0 explicitly (same as default for new projects)
cloudfront.Function(self, "Function",
    code=cloudfront.FunctionCode.from_inline("function handler(event) { return event.request }"),
    runtime=cloudfront.FunctionRuntime.JS_2_0
)

# Use v1.0 for legacy compatibility
cloudfront.Function(self, "Function",
    code=cloudfront.FunctionCode.from_inline("function handler(event) { return event.request }"),
    runtime=cloudfront.FunctionRuntime.JS_1_0
)
java
// Use v2.0 explicitly (same as default for new projects)
// Use v2.0 explicitly (same as default for new projects)
Function.Builder.create(this, "Function")
        .code(FunctionCode.fromInline("function handler(event) { return event.request }"))
        .runtime(FunctionRuntime.JS_2_0)
        .build();

// Use v1.0 for legacy compatibility
// Use v1.0 for legacy compatibility
Function.Builder.create(this, "Function")
        .code(FunctionCode.fromInline("function handler(event) { return event.request }"))
        .runtime(FunctionRuntime.JS_1_0)
        .build();
csharp
// Use v2.0 explicitly (same as default for new projects)
// Use v2.0 explicitly (same as default for new projects)
new Function(this, "Function", new FunctionProps {
    Code = FunctionCode.FromInline("function handler(event) { return event.request }"),
    Runtime = FunctionRuntime.JS_2_0
});

// Use v1.0 for legacy compatibility
// Use v1.0 for legacy compatibility
new Function(this, "Function", new FunctionProps {
    Code = FunctionCode.FromInline("function handler(event) { return event.request }"),
    Runtime = FunctionRuntime.JS_1_0
});
go
// Use v2.0 explicitly (same as default for new projects)
// Use v2.0 explicitly (same as default for new projects)
cloudfront.NewFunction(this, jsii.String("Function"), &FunctionProps{
	Code: cloudfront.FunctionCode_FromInline(jsii.String("function handler(event) { return event.request }")),
	Runtime: cloudfront.FunctionRuntime_JS_2_0(),
})

// Use v1.0 for legacy compatibility
// Use v1.0 for legacy compatibility
cloudfront.NewFunction(this, jsii.String("Function"), &FunctionProps{
	Code: cloudfront.FunctionCode_*FromInline(jsii.String("function handler(event) { return event.request }")),
	Runtime: cloudfront.FunctionRuntime_JS_1_0(),
})

Note: Functions associated with a Key Value Store always use cloudfront-js-2.0, as Key Value Store support requires the v2.0 runtime.

When the @aws-cdk/aws-cloudfront:defaultFunctionRuntimeV2_0 feature flag is disabled, the runtime defaults to cloudfront-js-1.0 for backward compatibility.

Key Value Store ​

A CloudFront Key Value Store can be created and optionally have data imported from a JSON file by default.

To create an empty Key Value Store:

ts
const store = new cloudfront.KeyValueStore(this, 'KeyValueStore');
python
store = cloudfront.KeyValueStore(self, "KeyValueStore")
java
KeyValueStore store = new KeyValueStore(this, "KeyValueStore");
csharp
var store = new KeyValueStore(this, "KeyValueStore");

The Key Value Store can then be associated to a function using the cloudfront-js-2.0 runtime or newer:

ts
const store = new cloudfront.KeyValueStore(this, 'KeyValueStore');

python
store = cloudfront.KeyValueStore(self, "KeyValueStore")
cloudfront.Function(self, "Function",
    code=cloudfront.FunctionCode.from_inline("function handler(event) { return event.request }"),
    # Note that JS_2_0 must be used for Key Value Store support
    runtime=cloudfront.FunctionRuntime.JS_2_0,
    key_value_store=store
)
java
KeyValueStore store = new KeyValueStore(this, "KeyValueStore");
Function.Builder.create(this, "Function")
        .code(FunctionCode.fromInline("function handler(event) { return event.request }"))
        // Note that JS_2_0 must be used for Key Value Store support
        .runtime(FunctionRuntime.JS_2_0)
        .keyValueStore(store)
        .build();
csharp
var store = new KeyValueStore(this, "KeyValueStore");
new Function(this, "Function", new FunctionProps {
    Code = FunctionCode.FromInline("function handler(event) { return event.request }"),
    // Note that JS_2_0 must be used for Key Value Store support
    Runtime = FunctionRuntime.JS_2_0,
    KeyValueStore = store
});
go
store := cloudfront.NewKeyValueStore(this, jsii.String("KeyValueStore"))
cloudfront.NewFunction(this, jsii.String("Function"), &FunctionProps{

Logging ​

You can configure CloudFront to create log files that contain detailed information about every user request that CloudFront receives. The logs can go to either an existing bucket, or a bucket will be created for you.

ts
// Configure logging for Distributions

// Simplest form - creates a new bucket and logs to it.
new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'myDist', {
  defaultBehavior: { origin: new origins.HttpOrigin('www.example.com') },

});

// You can optionally log to a specific bucket, configure whether cookies are logged, and give the log files a prefix.
new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'myDist', {
  defaultBehavior: { origin: new origins.HttpOrigin('www.example.com') },
  enableLogging: true, // Optional, this is implied if logBucket is specified
  logBucket: new s3.Bucket(this, 'LogBucket', {

CloudFront Distribution Metrics ​

You can view operational metrics about your CloudFront distributions.

Default CloudFront Distribution Metrics ​

The following metrics are available by default for all CloudFront distributions:

  • Total requests: The total number of viewer requests received by CloudFront for all HTTP methods and for both HTTP and HTTPS requests.
  • Total bytes uploaded: The total number of bytes that viewers uploaded to your origin with CloudFront, using POST and PUT requests.
  • Total bytes downloaded: The total number of bytes downloaded by viewers for GET, HEAD, and OPTIONS requests.
  • Total error rate: The percentage of all viewer requests for which the response's HTTP status code was 4xx or 5xx.
  • 4xx error rate: The percentage of all viewer requests for which the response's HTTP status code was 4xx.
  • 5xx error rate: The percentage of all viewer requests for which the response's HTTP status code was 5xx.

Additional CloudFront Distribution Metrics ​

You can enable additional CloudFront distribution metrics, which include the following metrics:

  • 4xx and 5xx error rates: View 4xx and 5xx error rates by the specific HTTP status code, as a percentage of total requests.
  • Origin latency: See the total time spent from when CloudFront receives a request to when it provides a response to the network (not the viewer), for responses that are served from the origin, not the CloudFront cache.
  • Cache hit rate: View cache hits as a percentage of total cacheable requests, excluding errors.

HTTP Versions ​

You can configure CloudFront to use a particular version of the HTTP protocol. By default, newly created distributions use HTTP/2 but can be configured to use both HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 or just HTTP/3. For all supported HTTP versions, see the HttpVerson enum.

ts
// Configure a distribution to use HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'myDist', {
  defaultBehavior: { origin: new origins.HttpOrigin('www.example.com') },
  httpVersion: cloudfront.HttpVersion.HTTP2_AND_3,
});
python
# Configure a distribution to use HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
cloudfront.Distribution(self, "myDist",
    default_behavior=cloudfront.BehaviorOptions(origin=origins.HttpOrigin("www.example.com")),
    http_version=cloudfront.HttpVersion.HTTP2_AND_3
)
java
// Configure a distribution to use HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
// Configure a distribution to use HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
Distribution.Builder.create(this, "myDist")
        .defaultBehavior(BehaviorOptions.builder().origin(new HttpOrigin("www.example.com")).build())
        .httpVersion(HttpVersion.HTTP2_AND_3)
        .build();
csharp
// Configure a distribution to use HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
// Configure a distribution to use HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
new Distribution(this, "myDist", new DistributionProps {
    DefaultBehavior = new BehaviorOptions { Origin = new HttpOrigin("www.example.com") },
    HttpVersion = HttpVersion.HTTP2_AND_3
});
go
// Configure a distribution to use HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
// Configure a distribution to use HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
cloudfront.NewDistribution(this, jsii.String("myDist"), &DistributionProps{
	DefaultBehavior: &BehaviorOptions{
		Origin: origins.NewHttpOrigin(jsii.String("www.example.com")),
	},
	HttpVersion: cloudfront.HttpVersion_HTTP2_AND_3,
})

Importing Distributions ​

Existing distributions can be imported as well; note that like most imported constructs, an imported distribution cannot be modified. However, it can be used as a reference for other higher-level constructs.

ts
// Using a reference to an imported Distribution
const distribution = cloudfront.Distribution.fromDistributionAttributes(this, 'ImportedDist', {
  domainName: 'd111111abcdef8.cloudfront.net',
  distributionId: '012345ABCDEF',
});
python
# Using a reference to an imported Distribution
distribution = cloudfront.Distribution.from_distribution_attributes(self, "ImportedDist",
    domain_name="d111111abcdef8.cloudfront.net",
    distribution_id="012345ABCDEF"
)
java
// Using a reference to an imported Distribution
IDistribution distribution = Distribution.fromDistributionAttributes(this, "ImportedDist", DistributionAttributes.builder()
        .domainName("d111111abcdef8.cloudfront.net")
        .distributionId("012345ABCDEF")
        .build());
csharp
// Using a reference to an imported Distribution
var distribution = Distribution.FromDistributionAttributes(this, "ImportedDist", new DistributionAttributes {
    DomainName = "d111111abcdef8.cloudfront.net",
    DistributionId = "012345ABCDEF"
});
go
// Using a reference to an imported Distribution
distribution := cloudfront.Distribution_FromDistributionAttributes(this, jsii.String("ImportedDist"), &DistributionAttributes{
	DomainName: jsii.String("d111111abcdef8.cloudfront.net"),
	DistributionId: jsii.String("012345ABCDEF"),
})

Permissions ​

Use the grant() method to allow actions on the distribution. grantCreateInvalidation() is a shorthand to allow CreateInvalidation.

ts
declare const distribution: cloudfront.Distribution;
declare const lambdaFn: lambda.Function;
distribution.grant(lambdaFn, 'cloudfront:ListInvalidations', 'cloudfront:GetInvalidation');
distribution.grantCreateInvalidation(lambdaFn);
python
# distribution: cloudfront.Distribution
# lambda_fn: lambda.Function

distribution.grant(lambda_fn, "cloudfront:ListInvalidations", "cloudfront:GetInvalidation")
distribution.grant_create_invalidation(lambda_fn)
java
Distribution distribution;
Function lambdaFn;

distribution.grant(lambdaFn, "cloudfront:ListInvalidations", "cloudfront:GetInvalidation");
distribution.grantCreateInvalidation(lambdaFn);
csharp
Distribution distribution;
Function lambdaFn;

distribution.Grant(lambdaFn, "cloudfront:ListInvalidations", "cloudfront:GetInvalidation");
distribution.GrantCreateInvalidation(lambdaFn);
go
var distribution Distribution
var lambdaFn Function

distribution.Grant(lambdaFn, jsii.String("cloudfront:ListInvalidations"), jsii.String("cloudfront:GetInvalidation"))
distribution.GrantCreateInvalidation(lambdaFn)

Realtime Log Config ​

CloudFront supports realtime log delivery from your distribution to a Kinesis stream.

See Real-time logs in the CloudFront User Guide.

Example:

ts
// Adding realtime logs config to a Cloudfront Distribution on default behavior.
import * as kinesis from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-kinesis';

declare const stream: kinesis.Stream;

const realTimeConfig = new cloudfront.RealtimeLogConfig(this, 'realtimeLog', {

    cloudfront.Endpoint.fromKinesisStream(stream),
  ],
  fields: [
    'timestamp',
    'c-ip',
    'time-to-first-byte',
    'sc-status',
  ],
  realtimeLogConfigName: 'my-delivery-stream',
  samplingRate: 100,
});

new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'myCdn', {
  defaultBehavior: {
    origin: new origins.HttpOrigin('www.example.com'),
    realtimeLogConfig: realTimeConfig,

gRPC ​

CloudFront supports gRPC, an open-source remote procedure call (RPC) framework built on HTTP/2. gRPC offers bi-directional streaming and binary protocol that buffers payloads, making it suitable for applications that require low latency communications.

To enable your distribution to handle gRPC requests, you must include HTTP/2 as one of the supported HTTP versions and allow HTTP methods, including POST.

See Using gRPC with CloudFront distributions in the CloudFront User Guide.

Example:

ts
new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'myCdn', {
  defaultBehavior: {
    origin: new origins.HttpOrigin('www.example.com'),
    allowedMethods: cloudfront.AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL, // `AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL` is required if `enableGrpc` is true
    enableGrpc: true,
  },
});
python
cloudfront.Distribution(self, "myCdn",
    default_behavior=cloudfront.BehaviorOptions(
        origin=origins.HttpOrigin("www.example.com"),
        allowed_methods=cloudfront.AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL,  # `AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL` is required if `enableGrpc` is true
        enable_grpc=True
    )
)
java
Distribution.Builder.create(this, "myCdn")
        .defaultBehavior(BehaviorOptions.builder()
                .origin(new HttpOrigin("www.example.com"))
                .allowedMethods(AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL) // `AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL` is required if `enableGrpc` is true
                .enableGrpc(true)
                .build())
        .build();
csharp
new Distribution(this, "myCdn", new DistributionProps {
    DefaultBehavior = new BehaviorOptions {
        Origin = new HttpOrigin("www.example.com"),
        AllowedMethods = AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL,  // `AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL` is required if `enableGrpc` is true
        EnableGrpc = true
    }
});
go
cloudfront.NewDistribution(this, jsii.String("myCdn"), &DistributionProps{
	DefaultBehavior: &BehaviorOptions{
		Origin: origins.NewHttpOrigin(jsii.String("www.example.com")),
		AllowedMethods: cloudfront.AllowedMethods_ALLOW_ALL(),
		 // `AllowedMethods.ALLOW_ALL` is required if `enableGrpc` is true
		EnableGrpc: jsii.Boolean(true),
	},
})

Migrating from the original CloudFrontWebDistribution to the newer Distribution construct ​

It's possible to migrate a distribution from the original to the modern API. The changes necessary are the following:

The Distribution ​

Replace new CloudFrontWebDistribution with new Distribution. Some configuration properties have been changed:

Old APINew API
originConfigsdefaultBehavior; use additionalBehaviors if necessary
viewerCertificatecertificate; use domainNames for aliases
errorConfigurationserrorResponses
loggingConfigenableLogging; configure with logBucket logFilePrefix and logIncludesCookies
viewerProtocolPolicyremoved; set on each behavior instead. default changed from REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS to ALLOW_ALL, but the @aws-cdk/aws-cloudfront:defaultViewerProtocolPolicyRedirectToHttps feature flag restores REDIRECT_TO_HTTPS

After switching constructs, you need to maintain the same logical ID for the underlying CfnDistribution if you wish to avoid the deletion and recreation of your distribution. To do this, use escape hatches to override the logical ID created by the new Distribution construct with the logical ID created by the old construct.

Example:

ts
declare const sourceBucket: s3.Bucket;

const myDistribution = new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'MyCfWebDistribution', {
  defaultBehavior: {
    origin: new origins.S3Origin(sourceBucket),
  },
});
const cfnDistribution = myDistribution.node.defaultChild as cloudfront.CfnDistribution;
cfnDistribution.overrideLogicalId('MyDistributionCFDistribution3H55TI9Q');
python
# source_bucket: s3.Bucket


my_distribution = cloudfront.Distribution(self, "MyCfWebDistribution",
    default_behavior=cloudfront.BehaviorOptions(
        origin=origins.S3Origin(source_bucket)
    )
)
cfn_distribution = my_distribution.node.default_child
cfn_distribution.override_logical_id("MyDistributionCFDistribution3H55TI9Q")
java
Bucket sourceBucket;


Distribution myDistribution = Distribution.Builder.create(this, "MyCfWebDistribution")
        .defaultBehavior(BehaviorOptions.builder()
                .origin(new S3Origin(sourceBucket))
                .build())
        .build();
CfnDistribution cfnDistribution = (CfnDistribution)myDistribution.getNode().getDefaultChild();
cfnDistribution.overrideLogicalId("MyDistributionCFDistribution3H55TI9Q");
csharp
Bucket sourceBucket;


var myDistribution = new Distribution(this, "MyCfWebDistribution", new DistributionProps {
    DefaultBehavior = new BehaviorOptions {
        Origin = new S3Origin(sourceBucket)
    }
});
var cfnDistribution = (CfnDistribution)myDistribution.Node.DefaultChild;
cfnDistribution.OverrideLogicalId("MyDistributionCFDistribution3H55TI9Q");
go
var sourceBucket Bucket


myDistribution := cloudfront.NewDistribution(this, jsii.String("MyCfWebDistribution"), &DistributionProps{
	DefaultBehavior: &BehaviorOptions{
		Origin: origins.NewS3Origin(sourceBucket),
	},
})
cfnDistribution := myDistribution.Node.defaultChild.(CfnDistribution)
cfnDistribution.OverrideLogicalId(jsii.String("MyDistributionCFDistribution3H55TI9Q"))

Behaviors ​

The modern API makes use of the CloudFront Origins module to easily configure your origin. Replace your origin configuration with the relevant CloudFront Origins class. For example, here's a behavior with an S3 origin:

ts
declare const sourceBucket: s3.Bucket;
declare const oai: cloudfront.OriginAccessIdentity;

new cloudfront.CloudFrontWebDistribution(this, 'MyCfWebDistribution', {
  originConfigs: [
    {
      s3OriginSource: {
        s3BucketSource: sourceBucket,
        originAccessIdentity: oai,
      },
      behaviors : [ {isDefaultBehavior: true}],
    },
  ],
});
python
# source_bucket: s3.Bucket
# oai: cloudfront.OriginAccessIdentity


cloudfront.CloudFrontWebDistribution(self, "MyCfWebDistribution",
    origin_configs=[cloudfront.SourceConfiguration(
        s3_origin_source=cloudfront.S3OriginConfig(
            s3_bucket_source=source_bucket,
            origin_access_identity=oai
        ),
        behaviors=[cloudfront.Behavior(is_default_behavior=True)]
    )
    ]
)
java
Bucket sourceBucket;
OriginAccessIdentity oai;


CloudFrontWebDistribution.Builder.create(this, "MyCfWebDistribution")
        .originConfigs(List.of(SourceConfiguration.builder()
                .s3OriginSource(S3OriginConfig.builder()
                        .s3BucketSource(sourceBucket)
                        .originAccessIdentity(oai)
                        .build())
                .behaviors(List.of(Behavior.builder().isDefaultBehavior(true).build()))
                .build()))
        .build();
csharp
Bucket sourceBucket;
OriginAccessIdentity oai;


new CloudFrontWebDistribution(this, "MyCfWebDistribution", new CloudFrontWebDistributionProps {
    OriginConfigs = new [] { new SourceConfiguration {
        S3OriginSource = new S3OriginConfig {
            S3BucketSource = sourceBucket,
            OriginAccessIdentity = oai
        },
        Behaviors = new [] { new Behavior { IsDefaultBehavior = true } }
    } }
});
go
var sourceBucket Bucket
var oai OriginAccessIdentity


cloudfront.NewCloudFrontWebDistribution(this, jsii.String("MyCfWebDistribution"), &CloudFrontWebDistributionProps{
	OriginConfigs: []SourceConfiguration{
		&SourceConfiguration{
			S3OriginSource: &S3OriginConfig{
				S3BucketSource: sourceBucket,
				OriginAccessIdentity: oai,
			},
			Behaviors: []Behavior{
				&Behavior{
					IsDefaultBehavior: jsii.Boolean(true),
				},
			},
		},
	},
})

Becomes:

ts
declare const sourceBucket: s3.Bucket;

const distribution = new cloudfront.Distribution(this, 'MyCfWebDistribution', {
  defaultBehavior: {
    origin: new origins.S3Origin(sourceBucket) // This class automatically creates an Origin Access Identity
  },
});
python
# source_bucket: s3.Bucket


distribution = cloudfront.Distribution(self, "MyCfWebDistribution",
    default_behavior=cloudfront.BehaviorOptions(
        origin=origins.S3Origin(source_bucket)
    )
)
java
Bucket sourceBucket;


Distribution distribution = Distribution.Builder.create(this, "MyCfWebDistribution")
        .defaultBehavior(BehaviorOptions.builder()
                .origin(new S3Origin(sourceBucket))
                .build())
        .build();
csharp
Bucket sourceBucket;


var distribution = new Distribution(this, "MyCfWebDistribution", new DistributionProps {
    DefaultBehavior = new BehaviorOptions {
        Origin = new S3Origin(sourceBucket)
    }
});
go
var sourceBucket Bucket


distribution := cloudfront.NewDistribution(this, jsii.String("MyCfWebDistribution"), &DistributionProps{
	DefaultBehavior: &BehaviorOptions{
		Origin: origins.NewS3Origin(sourceBucket),
	},
})

In the original API all behaviors are defined in the originConfigs property. The new API is optimized for a single origin and behavior, so the default behavior and additional behaviors will be defined separately.

ts
declare const sourceBucket: s3.Bucket;
declare const oai: cloudfront.OriginAccessIdentity;

new cloudfront.CloudFrontWebDistribution(this, 'MyCfWebDistribution', {
  originConfigs: [
    {
      s3OriginSource: {
        s3BucketSource: sourceBucket,
        originAccessIdentity: oai,
      },
      behaviors: [ {isDefaultBehavior: true}],
    },
    {
      customOriginSource: {
        domainName: 'MYALIAS',
      },
      behaviors: [{ pathPattern: '/somewhere' }]
    }
  ],
});
python

            origin_access_identity=oai
        ),
        behaviors=[cloudfront.Behavior(is_default_behavior=True)]
    ), cloudfront.SourceConfiguration(
        custom_origin_source=cloudfront.CustomOriginConfig(
            domain_name="MYALIAS"
        ),
        behaviors=[cloudfront.Behavior(path_pattern="/somewhere")]
    )
    ]

                        .s3BucketSource(sourceBucket)
                        .originAccessIdentity(oai)

Certificates ​

If you are using an ACM certificate, you can pass the certificate directly to the certificate prop. Any aliases used before in the ViewerCertificate class should be passed in to the domainNames prop in the modern API.

ts

Other changes ​

A number of default settings have changed on the new API when creating a new distribution, behavior, and origin. After making the major changes needed for the migration, run cdk diff to see what settings have changed. If no changes are desired during migration, you will at the least be able to use escape hatches to override what the CDK synthesizes, if you can't change the properties directly.

CloudFrontWebDistribution API ​

The CloudFrontWebDistribution construct is the original construct written for working with CloudFront distributions and has been marked as deprecated. Users are encouraged to use the newer Distribution instead, as it has a simpler interface and receives new features faster.

Example usage:

ts
// Using a CloudFrontWebDistribution construct.

declare const sourceBucket: s3.Bucket;
const distribution = new cloudfront.CloudFrontWebDistribution(this, 'MyDistribution', {
  originConfigs: [
    {
      s3OriginSource: {
        s3BucketSource: sourceBucket,
      },
      behaviors : [ {isDefaultBehavior: true}],
    },
  ],
});
python
# Using a CloudFrontWebDistribution construct.

# source_bucket: s3.Bucket

distribution = cloudfront.CloudFrontWebDistribution(self, "MyDistribution",
    origin_configs=[cloudfront.SourceConfiguration(
        s3_origin_source=cloudfront.S3OriginConfig(
            s3_bucket_source=source_bucket
        ),
        behaviors=[cloudfront.Behavior(is_default_behavior=True)]
    )
    ]
)
java
// Using a CloudFrontWebDistribution construct.

Bucket sourceBucket;

CloudFrontWebDistribution distribution = CloudFrontWebDistribution.Builder.create(this, "MyDistribution")
        .originConfigs(List.of(SourceConfiguration.builder()
                .s3OriginSource(S3OriginConfig.builder()
                        .s3BucketSource(sourceBucket)
                        .build())
                .behaviors(List.of(Behavior.builder().isDefaultBehavior(true).build()))
                .build()))
        .build();
csharp
// Using a CloudFrontWebDistribution construct.

Bucket sourceBucket;

var distribution = new CloudFrontWebDistribution(this, "MyDistribution", new CloudFrontWebDistributionProps {
    OriginConfigs = new [] { new SourceConfiguration {
        S3OriginSource = new S3OriginConfig {
            S3BucketSource = sourceBucket
        },
        Behaviors = new [] { new Behavior { IsDefaultBehavior = true } }
    } }
});
go
// Using a CloudFrontWebDistribution construct.

var sourceBucket Bucket

distribution := cloudfront.NewCloudFrontWebDistribution(this, jsii.String("MyDistribution"), &CloudFrontWebDistributionProps{
	OriginConfigs: []SourceConfiguration{
		&SourceConfiguration{
			S3OriginSource: &S3OriginConfig{
				S3BucketSource: sourceBucket,
			},
			Behaviors: []Behavior{
				&Behavior{
					IsDefaultBehavior: jsii.Boolean(true),
				},
			},
		},
	},
})

Viewer certificate ​

By default, CloudFront Web Distributions will answer HTTPS requests with CloudFront's default certificate, only containing the distribution domainName (e.g. d111111abcdef8.cloudfront.net). You can customize the viewer certificate property to provide a custom certificate and/or list of domain name aliases to fit your needs.

See Using Alternate Domain Names and HTTPS in the CloudFront User Guide.

Default certificate ​

You can customize the default certificate aliases. This is intended to be used in combination with CNAME records in your DNS zone.

Example:

ts
    const s3BucketSource = new s3.Bucket(this, 'Bucket');

    const distribution = new cloudfront.CloudFrontWebDistribution(this, 'AnAmazingWebsiteProbably', {
      originConfigs: [{
        s3OriginSource: { s3BucketSource },
        behaviors: [{ isDefaultBehavior: true }],
      }],
      viewerCertificate: cloudfront.ViewerCertificate.fromCloudFrontDefaultCertificate(
        'www.example.com',
      ),
    });
python
s3_bucket_source = s3.Bucket(self, "Bucket")

distribution = cloudfront.CloudFrontWebDistribution(self, "AnAmazingWebsiteProbably",
    origin_configs=[cloudfront.aws_cloudfront.SourceConfiguration(
        s3_origin_source=cloudfront.aws_cloudfront.S3OriginConfig(s3_bucket_source=s3_bucket_source),
        behaviors=[cloudfront.aws_cloudfront.Behavior(is_default_behavior=True)]
    )],
    viewer_certificate=cloudfront.ViewerCertificate.from_cloud_front_default_certificate("www.example.com")
)
java
Bucket s3BucketSource = new Bucket(this, "Bucket");

CloudFrontWebDistribution distribution = CloudFrontWebDistribution.Builder.create(this, "AnAmazingWebsiteProbably")
        .originConfigs(List.of(SourceConfiguration.builder()
                .s3OriginSource(S3OriginConfig.builder().s3BucketSource(s3BucketSource).build())
                .behaviors(List.of(Behavior.builder().isDefaultBehavior(true).build()))
                .build()))
        .viewerCertificate(ViewerCertificate.fromCloudFrontDefaultCertificate("www.example.com"))
        .build();
csharp
var s3BucketSource = new Bucket(this, "Bucket");

var distribution = new CloudFrontWebDistribution(this, "AnAmazingWebsiteProbably", new CloudFrontWebDistributionProps {
    OriginConfigs = new [] { new SourceConfiguration {
        S3OriginSource = new S3OriginConfig { S3BucketSource = s3BucketSource },
        Behaviors = new [] { new Behavior { IsDefaultBehavior = true } }
    } },
    ViewerCertificate = ViewerCertificate.FromCloudFrontDefaultCertificate("www.example.com")
});
go
s3BucketSource := s3.NewBucket(this, jsii.String("Bucket"))

			},
			Behaviors: []Behavior{
				&Behavior{
					IsDefaultBehavior: jsii.Boolean(true),
				},
			},
		},
	},
	ViewerCertificate: cloudfront.ViewerCertificate_FromCloudFrontDefaultCertificate(jsii.String("www.example.com")),
})

ACM certificate ​

You can change the default certificate by one stored AWS Certificate Manager, or ACM. Those certificate can either be generated by AWS, or purchased by another CA imported into ACM.

For more information, see the aws-certificatemanager module documentation or Importing Certificates into AWS Certificate Manager in the AWS Certificate Manager User Guide.

Example:

ts
    const s3BucketSource = new s3.Bucket(this, 'Bucket');

    const certificate = new certificatemanager.Certificate(this, 'Certificate', {
      domainName: 'example.com',
      subjectAlternativeNames: ['*.example.com'],
    });

    const distribution = new cloudfront.CloudFrontWebDistribution(this, 'AnAmazingWebsiteProbably', {
      originConfigs: [{
        s3OriginSource: { s3BucketSource },
        behaviors: [{ isDefaultBehavior: true }],
      }],

Trusted Key Groups ​

CloudFront Web Distributions supports validating signed URLs or signed cookies using key groups. When a cache behavior contains trusted key groups, CloudFront requires signed URLs or signed cookies for all requests that match the cache behavior.

Example:

ts
// Using trusted key groups for Cloudfront Web Distributions.
declare const sourceBucket: s3.Bucket;
declare const publicKey: string;
const pubKey = new cloudfront.PublicKey(this, 'MyPubKey', {
  encodedKey: publicKey,
});

const keyGroup = new cloudfront.KeyGroup(this, 'MyKeyGroup', {
  items: [
    pubKey,
  ],
});

new cloudfront.CloudFrontWebDistribution(this, 'AnAmazingWebsiteProbably', {
  originConfigs: [
    {
      s3OriginSource: {
        s3BucketSource: sourceBucket,
      },
      behaviors: [
        {
          isDefaultBehavior: true,
          trustedKeyGroups: [
            keyGroup,
          ],
        },
      ],
    },
  ],
});
python

Restrictions ​

CloudFront supports adding restrictions to your distribution.

See Restricting the Geographic Distribution of Your Content in the CloudFront User Guide.

Example:

ts
// Adding restrictions to a Cloudfront Web Distribution.
declare const sourceBucket: s3.Bucket;
new cloudfront.CloudFrontWebDistribution(this, 'MyDistribution', {
  originConfigs: [

Connection behaviors between CloudFront and your origin ​

CloudFront provides you even more control over the connection behaviors between CloudFront and your origin. You can now configure the number of connection attempts CloudFront will make to your origin and the origin connection timeout for each attempt.

See Origin Connection Attempts

See Origin Connection Timeout

Example usage:

ts
// Configuring connection behaviors between Cloudfront and your origin
const distribution = new cloudfront.CloudFrontWebDistribution(this, 'MyDistribution', {
  originConfigs: [
    {
      connectionAttempts: 3,
      connectionTimeout: Duration.seconds(10),
      behaviors: [
        {
          isDefaultBehavior: true,
        },
      ],
    },
  ],
});

KeyGroup & PublicKey API ​

You can create a key group to use with CloudFront signed URLs and signed cookies You can add public keys to use with CloudFront features such as signed URLs, signed cookies, and field-level encryption.

The following example command uses OpenSSL to generate an RSA key pair with a length of 2048 bits and save to the file named private_key.pem.

bash
openssl genrsa -out private_key.pem 2048

The resulting file contains both the public and the private key. The following example command extracts the public key from the file named private_key.pem and stores it in public_key.pem.

bash
openssl rsa -pubout -in private_key.pem -out public_key.pem

Note: Don't forget to copy/paste the contents of public_key.pem file including -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY----- and -----END PUBLIC KEY----- lines into encodedKey parameter when creating a PublicKey.

Example:

ts
// Create a key group to use with CloudFront signed URLs and signed cookies.
new cloudfront.KeyGroup(this, 'MyKeyGroup', {
  items: [
    new cloudfront.PublicKey(this, 'MyPublicKey', {
      encodedKey: '...', // contents of public_key.pem file
      // comment: 'Key is expiring on ...',
    }),
  ],
  // comment: 'Key group containing public keys ...',
});
python
# Create a key group to use with CloudFront signed URLs and signed cookies.
cloudfront.KeyGroup(self, "MyKeyGroup",
    items=[
        cloudfront.PublicKey(self, "MyPublicKey",
            encoded_key="..."
        )
    ]
)
java
// Create a key group to use with CloudFront signed URLs and signed cookies.
// Create a key group to use with CloudFront signed URLs and signed cookies.
KeyGroup.Builder.create(this, "MyKeyGroup")
        .items(List.of(
            PublicKey.Builder.create(this, "MyPublicKey")
                    .encodedKey("...")
                    .build()))
        .build();
csharp
// Create a key group to use with CloudFront signed URLs and signed cookies.
// Create a key group to use with CloudFront signed URLs and signed cookies.
new KeyGroup(this, "MyKeyGroup", new KeyGroupProps {
    Items = new [] {
        new PublicKey(this, "MyPublicKey", new PublicKeyProps {
            EncodedKey = "..."
        }) }
});
go
// Create a key group to use with CloudFront signed URLs and signed cookies.
// Create a key group to use with CloudFront signed URLs and signed cookies.
cloudfront.NewKeyGroup(this, jsii.String("MyKeyGroup"), &KeyGroupProps{
	Items: []IPublicKeyRef{
		cloudfront.NewPublicKey(this, jsii.String("MyPublicKey"), &PublicKeyProps{
			EncodedKey: jsii.String("..."),
		}),
	},
})

When using a CloudFront PublicKey, only the comment field can be updated after creation. Fields such as encodedKey and publicKeyName are immutable, as outlined in the API Reference. Attempting to modify these fields will result in an error:

Resource handler returned message: "Invalid request provided: AWS::CloudFront::PublicKey"

To update the encodedKey, you must change the ID of the public key resource in your template. This causes CloudFormation to create a new cloudfront.PublicKey resource and delete the old one during the next deployment.

Example:

ts
// Step 1: Original deployment
const originalKey = new cloudfront.PublicKey(this, 'MyPublicKeyV1', {
  encodedKey: '...', // contents of original public_key.pem file
});
python
# Step 1: Original deployment
original_key = cloudfront.PublicKey(self, "MyPublicKeyV1",
    encoded_key="..."
)
java
// Step 1: Original deployment
PublicKey originalKey = PublicKey.Builder.create(this, "MyPublicKeyV1")
        .encodedKey("...")
        .build();
csharp
// Step 1: Original deployment
var originalKey = new PublicKey(this, "MyPublicKeyV1", new PublicKeyProps {
    EncodedKey = "..."
});
go
// Step 1: Original deployment
originalKey := cloudfront.NewPublicKey(this, jsii.String("MyPublicKeyV1"), &PublicKeyProps{
	EncodedKey: jsii.String("..."),
})

Regenerate a new key and change the construct id in the code:

ts
// Step 2: In a subsequent deployment, create a new key with a different ID
const updatedKey = new cloudfront.PublicKey(this, 'MyPublicKeyV2', {
  encodedKey: '...', // contents of new public_key.pem file
});
python
# Step 2: In a subsequent deployment, create a new key with a different ID
updated_key = cloudfront.PublicKey(self, "MyPublicKeyV2",
    encoded_key="..."
)
java
// Step 2: In a subsequent deployment, create a new key with a different ID
PublicKey updatedKey = PublicKey.Builder.create(this, "MyPublicKeyV2")
        .encodedKey("...")
        .build();
csharp
// Step 2: In a subsequent deployment, create a new key with a different ID
var updatedKey = new PublicKey(this, "MyPublicKeyV2", new PublicKeyProps {
    EncodedKey = "..."
});
go
// Step 2: In a subsequent deployment, create a new key with a different ID
updatedKey := cloudfront.NewPublicKey(this, jsii.String("MyPublicKeyV2"), &PublicKeyProps{
	EncodedKey: jsii.String("..."),
})
