Request Parameters

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

CloudWatchLogGroupArn

Specifies the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an Amazon CloudWatch log group for monitoring your task.

For Enhanced mode tasks, you must use /aws/datasync as your log group name. For example:

arn:aws:logs:us-east-1:111222333444:log-group:/aws/datasync:*

For more information, see Monitoring data transfers with CloudWatch Logs.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Maximum length of 562.

Pattern: ^arn:(aws|aws-cn|aws-us-gov|aws-iso|aws-iso-b):logs:[a-z\-0-9]+:[0-9]{12}:log-group:([^:\*]*)(:\*)?$

Required: No

Excludes

Specifies exclude filters that define the files, objects, and folders in your source location that you don't want DataSync to transfer. For more information and examples, see Specifying what DataSync transfers by using filters.

Type: Array of FilterRule objects

When using this parameter, your caller identity (the IAM role that you're using DataSync with) must have the iam:PassRole permission. The AWSDataSyncFullAccess policy includes this permission.

To remove a manifest configuration, specify this parameter as empty.

Type: ManifestConfig object

Options

Indicates how your transfer task is configured. These options include how DataSync handles files, objects, and their associated metadata during your transfer. You also can specify how to verify data integrity, set bandwidth limits for your task, among other options.

Each option has a default value. Unless you need to, you don't have to configure any option before calling StartTaskExecution.

You also can override your task options for each task execution. For example, you might want to adjust the LogLevel for an individual execution.

Type: Options object

Required: No

Schedule

Specifies a schedule for when you want your task to run. For more information, see Scheduling your task.

Type: TaskSchedule object

Required: No

TaskArn

TaskReportConfig

Specifies how you want to configure a task report, which provides detailed information about your DataSync transfer. For more information, see Monitoring your DataSync transfers with task reports.

When using this parameter, your caller identity (the IAM role that you're using DataSync with) must have the iam:PassRole permission. The AWSDataSyncFullAccess policy includes this permission.

To remove a task report configuration, specify this parameter as empty.

Type: TaskReportConfig object
