Change AWS Resources in an AWS CodeStar Project - AWS CodeStar

On July 31, 2024, Amazon Web Services (AWS) will discontinue support for creating and viewing AWS CodeStar projects. After July 31, 2024, you will no longer be able to access the AWS CodeStar console or create new projects. However, the AWS resources created by AWS CodeStar, including your source repositories, pipelines, and builds, will be unaffected by this change and will continue to function. AWS CodeStar Connections and AWS CodeStar Notifications will not be impacted by this discontinuation.

 

If you wish to track work, develop code, and build, test, and deploy your applications, Amazon CodeCatalyst provides a streamlined getting started process and additional functionality to manage your software projects. Learn more about functionality and pricing of Amazon CodeCatalyst.

Change AWS Resources in an AWS CodeStar Project

After you create a project in AWS CodeStar, you can change the default set of AWS resources that AWS CodeStar adds to the project.

Supported Resource Changes

The following table lists the supported changes to default AWS resources in an AWS CodeStar project.

Change Notes
Add a stage to AWS CodePipeline. See Add a Stage to AWS CodePipeline.
Change Elastic Beanstalk environment settings. See Change AWS Elastic Beanstalk Environment Settings.
Change an AWS Lambda function's code or settings, its IAM role, or its API in Amazon API Gateway. See Change an AWS Lambda Function in Source Code.
Add a resource to an AWS Lambda project and expand permissions to create and access the new resource. See Add a Resource to a Project.
Add traffic shifting with CodeDeploy for an AWS Lambda function. See Shift Traffic for an AWS Lambda Project.
Add AWS X-Ray support See Enable Tracing for a Project.
Edit the buildspec.yml file for your project to add a unit test build phase for AWS CodeBuild to run. See Step 7: Add a Unit Test to the Web Service in the Serverless Project tutorial.
Add your own IAM role to your project. See Add an IAM Role to a Project.
Change an IAM role definition. For roles defined in the application stack. You cannot change roles defined in the toolchain or AWS CloudFormation stacks.
Modify your Lambda project to add an endpoint.
Modify your EC2 project to add an endpoint.
Modify your Elastic Beanstalk project to add an endpoint.
Edit your project to add a Prod stage and endpoint. See Add a Prod Stage and Endpoint to a Project.

The following changes are not supported.

  • Switch to a different deployment target (for example, deploy to AWS Elastic Beanstalk instead of AWS CodeDeploy).

  • Add a friendly web endpoint name.

  • Change the CodeCommit repository name (for an AWS CodeStar project connected to CodeCommit).

  • For an AWS CodeStar project connected to GitHub, disconnect the GitHub repository, and then reconnect the repository to that project, or connect any other repository to that project. You can use the CodePipeline console (not the AWS CodeStar console) to disconnect and reconnect to GitHub in a pipeline's Source stage. However, if you reconnect the Source stage to a different GitHub repository, in the AWS CodeStar dashboard for the project, the information in the Repository and Issues tiles might be wrong or out of date. Disconnecting the GitHub repository does not remove that repository's information from the commit history and GitHub issues tiles in the AWS CodeStar project dashboard. To remove this information, use the GitHub website to disable access to GitHub from the AWS CodeStar project. To revoke access, on the GitHub website, use the Authorized OAuth Apps section of the settings page for your GitHub account profile.

  • Disconnect the CodeCommit repository (for an AWS CodeStar project connected to CodeCommit) and then reconnect the repository to that project, or connect any other repository to that project.
