Findings Filters

The Findings Filters resource represents the repository of filters that you create and save to review, analyze, and manage findings. A findings filter, also referred to as a filter, is a set of criteria that specifies which findings to include in the results of a query for findings. A findings filter can also perform specific actions on findings that match the filter's criteria. For example, you can configure a filter to suppress (automatically archive) findings that match the filter's criteria. For more information about creating and using filters, see Filtering findings in the Amazon Macie User Guide.

You can use the Findings Filters resource to create a new filter or retrieve information about all the existing filters for your Amazon Macie account. To update, delete, or retrieve detailed information about an individual filter, use the Findings Filter resource.

CreateFindingsFilterRequest

Specifies the criteria and other settings for a new findings filter.

Property	Type	Required	Description
action	FindingsFilterAction	True	The action to perform on findings that match the filter criteria (findingCriteria). Valid values are: ARCHIVE, suppress (automatically archive) the findings; and, NOOP, don't perform any action on the findings.
clientToken	string	False	A unique, case-sensitive token that you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request.
description	string	False	A custom description of the filter. The description can contain as many as 512 characters. We strongly recommend that you avoid including any sensitive data in the description of a filter. Other users of your account might be able to see this description, depending on the actions that they're allowed to perform in Amazon Macie.
findingCriteria	FindingCriteria	True	The criteria to use to filter findings.
name	string	True	A custom name for the filter. The name must contain at least 3 characters and can contain as many as 64 characters. We strongly recommend that you avoid including any sensitive data in the name of a filter. Other users of your account might be able to see this name, depending on the actions that they're allowed to perform in Amazon Macie.
position	integer Format: int32	False	The position of the filter in the list of saved filters on the Amazon Macie console. This value also determines the order in which the filter is applied to findings, relative to other filters that are also applied to the findings.
tags	TagMap	False	A map of key-value pairs that specifies the tags to associate with the filter. A findings filter can have a maximum of 50 tags. Each tag consists of a tag key and an associated tag value. The maximum length of a tag key is 128 characters. The maximum length of a tag value is 256 characters.

Criterion

Specifies a condition that defines a property, operator, and one or more values to filter the results of a query for findings.

You can use this operator with the following properties: customDataIdentifiers.detections.arn, customDataIdentifiers.detections.name, resourcesAffected.s3Bucket.tags.key, resourcesAffected.s3Bucket.tags.value, resourcesAffected.s3Object.tags.key, resourcesAffected.s3Object.tags.value, sensitiveData.category, and sensitiveData.detections.type.
