remove-targets

Description

Removes the specified targets from the specified rule. When the rule is triggered, those targets are no longer be invoked.

Note

A successful execution of RemoveTargets doesn't guarantee all targets are removed from the rule, it means that the target(s) listed in the request are removed.

When you remove a target, when the associated rule triggers, removed targets might continue to be invoked. Allow a short period of time for changes to take effect.

This action can partially fail if too many requests are made at the same time. If that happens, FailedEntryCount is non-zero in the response and each entry in FailedEntries provides the ID of the failed target and the error code.

The maximum number of entries per request is 10.

Options

--rule (string)

The name of the rule.

--event-bus-name (string)

The name or ARN of the event bus associated with the rule. If you omit this, the default event bus is used.

--ids (list)

The IDs of the targets to remove from the rule.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--force | --no-force (boolean)

If this is a managed rule, created by an Amazon Web Services service on your behalf, you must specify Force as True to remove targets. This parameter is ignored for rules that are not managed rules. You can check whether a rule is a managed rule by using DescribeRule or ListRules and checking the ManagedBy field of the response.

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--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.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command's default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

• json
• text
• table

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

• on
• off
• auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal's quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To remove a target for an event

This example removes the Amazon Kinesis stream named MyStream1 from being a target of the rule DailyLambdaFunction. When DailyLambdaFunction was created, this stream was set as a target with an ID of Target1:

aws events remove-targets --rule "DailyLambdaFunction" --ids "Target1"

Output

FailedEntryCount -> (integer)

The number of failed entries.

FailedEntries -> (list)

The failed target entries.

(structure)

Represents a target that failed to be removed from a rule.

TargetId -> (string)

The ID of the target.

ErrorCode -> (string)

The error code that indicates why the target removal failed. If the value is ConcurrentModificationException , too many requests were made at the same time.

ErrorMessage -> (string)

The error message that explains why the target removal failed.
