Executing Recipes - AWS OpsWorks

Executing Recipes

Important

AWS OpsWorks Stacks is no longer accepting new customers. Existing customers will be able to use the OpsWorks console, API, CLI, and CloudFormation resources as normal until May 26, 2024, at which time they will be discontinued. To prepare for this transition, we recommend you transition your stacks to AWS Systems Manager as soon as possible. For more information, see AWS OpsWorks Stacks End of Life FAQs and Migrating your AWS OpsWorks Stacks applications to AWS Systems Manager Application Manager.

You can run recipes in two ways:

  • Automatically, by assigning recipes to the appropriate layer's lifecycle event.

  • Manually, by running the Execute Recipes stack command or by using the agent CLI.
