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.
Inserts or deletes ActivatedRule objects in a RuleGroup
.
You can only insert REGULAR
rules into a rule group.
You can have a maximum of ten rules per rule group.
To create and configure a RuleGroup
, perform the following steps:
Rules
that you want to include in the RuleGroup
. See CreateRule .GetChangeToken
to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken
parameter of an UpdateRuleGroup request.UpdateRuleGroup
request to add Rules
to the RuleGroup
.WebACL
that contains the RuleGroup
. See CreateWebACL .If you want to replace one Rule
with another, you delete the existing one and add the new one.
For more information about how to use the AWS WAF API to allow or block HTTP requests, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide .

ActivatedRule
and indicates whether you want to add it to aRuleGroup
or delete it from aRuleGroup
.Action -> (string)
SpecifyINSERT
to add anActivatedRule
to aRuleGroup
. UseDELETE
to remove anActivatedRule
from aRuleGroup
.ActivatedRule -> (structure)
The
ActivatedRule
object specifies aRule
that you want to insert or delete, the priority of theRule
in theWebACL
, and the action that you want AWS WAF to take when a web request matches theRule
(ALLOW
,BLOCK
, orCOUNT
).Priority -> (integer)
Specifies the order in which theRules
in aWebACL
are evaluated. Rules with a lower value forPriority
are evaluated beforeRules
with a higher value. The value must be a unique integer. If you add multipleRules
to aWebACL
, the values don't need to be consecutive.RuleId -> (string)
The
RuleId
for aRule
. You useRuleId
to get more information about aRule
(see GetRule ), update aRule
(see UpdateRule ), insert aRule
into aWebACL
or delete a one from aWebACL
(see UpdateWebACL ), or delete aRule
from AWS WAF (see DeleteRule ).RuleId
is returned by CreateRule and by ListRules .Action -> (structure)
Specifies the action that CloudFront or AWS WAF takes when a web request matches the conditions in the
Rule
. Valid values forAction
include the following:
ALLOW
: CloudFront responds with the requested object.BLOCK
: CloudFront responds with an HTTP 403 (Forbidden) status code.COUNT
: AWS WAF increments a counter of requests that match the conditions in the rule and then continues to inspect the web request based on the remaining rules in the web ACL.ActivatedRule|OverrideAction
applies only when updating or adding aRuleGroup
to aWebACL
. In this case, you do not useActivatedRule|Action
. For all other update requests,ActivatedRule|Action
is used instead ofActivatedRule|OverrideAction
.Type -> (string)
Specifies how you want AWS WAF to respond to requests that match the settings in a
Rule
. Valid settings include the following:
ALLOW
: AWS WAF allows requestsBLOCK
: AWS WAF blocks requestsCOUNT
: AWS WAF increments a counter of the requests that match all of the conditions in the rule. AWS WAF then continues to inspect the web request based on the remaining rules in the web ACL. You can't specifyCOUNT
for the default action for aWebACL
.OverrideAction -> (structure)
Use the
OverrideAction
to test yourRuleGroup
.Any rule in a
RuleGroup
can potentially block a request. If you set theOverrideAction
toNone
, theRuleGroup
will block a request if any individual rule in theRuleGroup
matches the request and is configured to block that request. However if you first want to test theRuleGroup
, set theOverrideAction
toCount
. TheRuleGroup
will then override any block action specified by individual rules contained within the group. Instead of blocking matching requests, those requests will be counted. You can view a record of counted requests using GetSampledRequests .ActivatedRule|OverrideAction
applies only when updating or adding aRuleGroup
to aWebACL
. In this case you do not useActivatedRule|Action
. For all other update requests,ActivatedRule|Action
is used instead ofActivatedRule|OverrideAction
.Type -> (string)
COUNT
overrides the action specified by the individual rule within aRuleGroup
. If set toNONE
, the rule's action will take place.Type -> (string)
The rule type, eitherREGULAR
, as defined by Rule ,RATE_BASED
, as defined by RateBasedRule , orGROUP
, as defined by RuleGroup . The default is REGULAR. Although this field is optional, be aware that if you try to add a RATE_BASED rule to a web ACL without setting the type, the UpdateWebACL request will fail because the request tries to add a REGULAR rule with the specified ID, which does not exist.ExcludedRules -> (list)
An array of rules to exclude from a rule group. This is applicable only when the
ActivatedRule
refers to aRuleGroup
.Sometimes it is necessary to troubleshoot rule groups that are blocking traffic unexpectedly (false positives). One troubleshooting technique is to identify the specific rule within the rule group that is blocking the legitimate traffic and then disable (exclude) that particular rule. You can exclude rules from both your own rule groups and AWS Marketplace rule groups that have been associated with a web ACL.
Specifying
ExcludedRules
does not remove those rules from the rule group. Rather, it changes the action for the rules toCOUNT
. Therefore, requests that match anExcludedRule
are counted but not blocked. TheRuleGroup
owner will receive COUNT metrics for eachExcludedRule
.If you want to exclude rules from a rule group that is already associated with a web ACL, perform the following steps:
- Use the AWS WAF logs to identify the IDs of the rules that you want to exclude. For more information about the logs, see Logging Web ACL Traffic Information .
- Submit an UpdateWebACL request that has two actions:
- The first action deletes the existing rule group from the web ACL. That is, in the UpdateWebACL request, the first
Updates:Action
should beDELETE
andUpdates:ActivatedRule:RuleId
should be the rule group that contains the rules that you want to exclude.- The second action inserts the same rule group back in, but specifying the rules to exclude. That is, the second
Updates:Action
should beINSERT
,Updates:ActivatedRule:RuleId
should be the rule group that you just removed, andExcludedRules
should contain the rules that you want to exclude.(structure)

--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.
