Whether to process the event actions as a batch. The default value is false .

When batchMode is true , you can't specify a messageId .

When batchMode is true and the rule SQL statement evaluates to an Array, each Array element is treated as a separate message when it's sent to IoT Events by calling ` BatchPutMessage https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iotevents/latest/apireference/API_iotevents-data_BatchPutMessage.html`__ . The resulting array can't have more than 10 messages.

stepFunctions -> (structure)

Starts execution of a Step Functions state machine.

executionNamePrefix -> (string)

(Optional) A name will be given to the state machine execution consisting of this prefix followed by a UUID. Step Functions automatically creates a unique name for each state machine execution if one is not provided.

stateMachineName -> (string)

The name of the Step Functions state machine whose execution will be started.

roleArn -> (string)

The ARN of the role that grants IoT permission to start execution of a state machine ("Action":"states:StartExecution").

timestream -> (structure)

The Timestream rule action writes attributes (measures) from an MQTT message into an Amazon Timestream table. For more information, see the Timestream topic rule action documentation.

roleArn -> (string)

The ARN of the role that grants permission to write to the Amazon Timestream database table.

databaseName -> (string)

The name of an Amazon Timestream database.

tableName -> (string)

The name of the database table into which to write the measure records.

dimensions -> (list)

Metadata attributes of the time series that are written in each measure record.

(structure)

Metadata attributes of the time series that are written in each measure record.

name -> (string)

The metadata dimension name. This is the name of the column in the Amazon Timestream database table record.

Dimensions cannot be named: measure_name , measure_value , or time . These names are reserved. Dimension names cannot start with ts_ or measure_value and they cannot contain the colon (: ) character.

value -> (string)

The value to write in this column of the database record.

timestamp -> (structure)

Specifies an application-defined value to replace the default value assigned to the Timestream record's timestamp in the time column.

You can use this property to specify the value and the precision of the Timestream record's timestamp. You can specify a value from the message payload or a value computed by a substitution template.

If omitted, the topic rule action assigns the timestamp, in milliseconds, at the time it processed the rule.

value -> (string)

An expression that returns a long epoch time value.

unit -> (string)

The precision of the timestamp value that results from the expression described in value .

Valid values: SECONDS | MILLISECONDS | MICROSECONDS | NANOSECONDS . The default is MILLISECONDS .

http -> (structure)

Send data to an HTTPS endpoint.

url -> (string)

The endpoint URL. If substitution templates are used in the URL, you must also specify a confirmationUrl . If this is a new destination, a new TopicRuleDestination is created if possible.

confirmationUrl -> (string)

The URL to which IoT sends a confirmation message. The value of the confirmation URL must be a prefix of the endpoint URL. If you do not specify a confirmation URL IoT uses the endpoint URL as the confirmation URL. If you use substitution templates in the confirmationUrl, you must create and enable topic rule destinations that match each possible value of the substitution template before traffic is allowed to your endpoint URL.

headers -> (list)

Metadata which can be used to manage the topic rule.

Note

For URI Request parameters use format: ...key1=value1&key2=value2...

For the CLI command-line parameter use format: --tags "key1=value1&key2=value2..."

For the cli-input-json file use format: "tags": "key1=value1&key2=value2..."

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command's default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

  • on
  • off
  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal's quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To create a rule that sends an Amazon SNS alert

The following create-topic-rule example creates a rule that sends an Amazon SNS message when soil moisture level readings, as found in a device shadow, are low.

aws iot create-topic-rule \
    --rule-name "LowMoistureRule" \
    --topic-rule-payload file://plant-rule.json

The example requires the following JSON code to be saved to a file named plant-rule.json:

{
    "sql": "SELECT * FROM '$aws/things/MyRPi/shadow/update/accepted' WHERE state.reported.moisture = 'low'\n",
    "description": "Sends an alert whenever soil moisture level readings are too low.",
    "ruleDisabled": false,
    "awsIotSqlVersion": "2016-03-23",
    "actions": [{
            "sns": {
                "targetArn": "arn:aws:sns:us-west-2:123456789012:MyRPiLowMoistureTopic",
                "roleArn": "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/service-role/MyRPiLowMoistureTopicRole",
                "messageFormat": "RAW"
            }
    }]
}

This command produces no output.
