UpdateEventSourceMapping

You can update an event source mapping. This is useful if you want to change the parameters of the existing mapping without losing your position in the stream. You can change which function will receive the stream records, but to change the stream itself, you must create a new mapping.

If you are using the versioning feature, you can update the event source mapping to map to a specific Lambda function version or alias as described in the FunctionName parameter. For information about the versioning feature, see AWS Lambda Function Versioning and Aliases.

If you disable the event source mapping, AWS Lambda stops polling. If you enable again, it will resume polling from the time it had stopped polling, so you don't lose processing of any records. However, if you delete event source mapping and create it again, it will reset.

This operation requires permission for the lambda:UpdateEventSourceMapping action.

Request Syntax


PUT /2015-03-31/event-source-mappings/UUID HTTP/1.1
Content-type: application/json

{
   "BatchSize": number,
   "Enabled": boolean,
   "FunctionName": "string"
}

URI Request Parameters

The request requires the following URI parameters.

UUID: The event source mapping identifier.

Request Body

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

BatchSize

The maximum number of stream records that can be sent to your Lambda function for a single invocation. If you are using an SQS queue as an event source, the maximum value is 10.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 10000.

Required: No

Enabled

Specifies whether AWS Lambda should actively poll the stream or not. If disabled, AWS Lambda will not poll the stream.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

FunctionName

The Lambda function to which you want the stream records sent.

You can specify a function name (for example, Thumbnail) or you can specify Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the function (for example, arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:account-id:function:ThumbNail). AWS Lambda also allows you to specify a partial ARN (for example, account-id:Thumbnail). Note that the length constraint applies only to the ARN. If you specify only the function name, it is limited to 64 characters in length.

If you are using versioning, you can also provide a qualified function ARN (ARN that is qualified with function version or alias name as suffix). For more information about versioning, see AWS Lambda Function Versioning and Aliases

Note that the length constraint applies only to the ARN. If you specify only the function name, it is limited to 64 character in length.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 140.

Pattern: (arn:(aws[a-zA-Z-]*)?:lambda:)?([a-z]{2}(-gov)?-[a-z]+-\d{1}:)?(\d{12}:)?(function:)?([a-zA-Z0-9-_]+)(:(\$LATEST|[a-zA-Z0-9-_]+))?

Required: No

Response Syntax


HTTP/1.1 202
Content-type: application/json

{
   "BatchSize": number,
   "EventSourceArn": "string",
   "FunctionArn": "string",
   "LastModified": number,
   "LastProcessingResult": "string",
   "State": "string",
   "StateTransitionReason": "string",
   "UUID": "string"
}

Response Elements

If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 202 response.

The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.

BatchSize

The largest number of records that AWS Lambda will retrieve from your event source at the time of invoking your function. Your function receives an event with all the retrieved records.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 10000.

EventSourceArn

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon Kinesis or DynamoDB stream that is the source of events.

Type: String

Pattern: arn:(aws[a-zA-Z0-9-]*):([a-zA-Z0-9\-])+:([a-z]{2}(-gov)?-[a-z]+-\d{1})?:(\d{12})?:(.*)

FunctionArn

The Lambda function to invoke when AWS Lambda detects an event on the poll-based source.

Type: String

Pattern: arn:(aws[a-zA-Z-]*)?:lambda:[a-z]{2}(-gov)?-[a-z]+-\d{1}:\d{12}:function:[a-zA-Z0-9-_]+(:(\$LATEST|[a-zA-Z0-9-_]+))?

LastModified

The UTC time string indicating the last time the event mapping was updated.

Type: Timestamp

LastProcessingResult

The result of the last AWS Lambda invocation of your Lambda function. This value will be null if an SQS queue is the event source.

Type: String

State

The state of the event source mapping. It can be Creating, Enabled, Disabled, Enabling, Disabling, Updating, or Deleting.

Type: String

StateTransitionReason

The reason the event source mapping is in its current state. It is either user-requested or an AWS Lambda-initiated state transition.

Type: String

UUID

The AWS Lambda assigned opaque identifier for the mapping.

Type: String

Errors

InvalidParameterValueException

One of the parameters in the request is invalid. For example, if you provided an IAM role for AWS Lambda to assume in the CreateFunction or the UpdateFunctionConfiguration API, that AWS Lambda is unable to assume you will get this exception.

HTTP Status Code: 400

ResourceConflictException

The resource already exists.

HTTP Status Code: 409

ResourceInUseException

The operation conflicts with the resource's availability. For example, you attempted to update an EventSoure Mapping in CREATING, or tried to delete a EventSoure mapping currently in the UPDATING state.

HTTP Status Code: 400

ResourceNotFoundException

The resource (for example, a Lambda function or access policy statement) specified in the request does not exist.

HTTP Status Code: 404

ServiceException

The AWS Lambda service encountered an internal error.

HTTP Status Code: 500

TooManyRequestsException

HTTP Status Code: 429
