Environment configuration using the Elastic Beanstalk console - AWS Elastic Beanstalk

Environment configuration using the Elastic Beanstalk console

You can use the Elastic Beanstalk console to view and modify many configuration options of your environment and its resources. You can customize how the environment behaves during deployments, enable additional features, and modify the instance type and other settings that you chose during environment creation.

To view a summary of your environment's configuration
  1. Open the Elastic Beanstalk console, and in the Regions list, select your AWS Region.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Environments, and then choose the name of your environment from the list.

    Note

    If you have many environments, use the search bar to filter the environment list.

  3. In the navigation pane, choose Configuration.

Configuration page

The Configuration overview page shows a set of configuration categories. Each configuration category summarizes the current state of a group of related options.

Choose Edit in a configuration category to get to a related configuration page, where you can see full option values and make changes. When you're done viewing and modifying options, you can choose one of the following actions:

  • Cancel – Go back to the environment's dashboard without applying your configuration changes. When you choose Cancel, the console loses any pending changes you made on any configuration category.

    You can also cancel your configuration changes by choosing another console page, like Events or Logs. In this case, if there are any pending configuration changes, the console prompts you to confirm that you agree to losing them.

  • Review changes – Get a summary of all the pending changes you made in any of the configuration categories. For details, see Review changes page.

  • Apply changes – Apply the changes you made in any of the configuration categories to your environment. In some cases you're prompted to confirm a consequence of one of your configuration decisions.

Review changes page

The Review Changes page displays a table showing all the pending option changes you made in any of the configuration categories and haven't applied to your environment yet.

The tables lists each option as a combination of the Namespace and Option with which Elastic Beanstalk identifies it. For details, see Configuration options.


              Review changes in the configuration page of the Elastic Beanstalk console

When you're done reviewing your changes, you can choose one of the following actions:

  • Continue – Go back to the Configuration overview page. You can then continue making changes or apply pending ones.

  • Apply changes – Apply the changes you made in any of the configuration categories to your environment. In some cases you're prompted to confirm a consequence of one of your configuration decisions.
