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.
In a GetByteMatchSet request, ByteMatchSet is a complex type that contains the ByteMatchSetId and
Name of a ByteMatchSet, and the values that you specified when you updated the ByteMatchSet.
A complex type that contains ByteMatchTuple objects, which specify the parts of web requests that you
want AWS WAF to inspect and the values that you want AWS WAF to search for. If a ByteMatchSet contains more than one
ByteMatchTuple object, a request needs to match the settings in only one ByteMatchTuple
to be considered a match.
