Synopsis

Calls the AWS WAF V2 GetSampledRequests API operation.

Syntax

Get-WAF2SampledRequest
-RuleMetricName <String>
-TimeWindow_EndTime <DateTime>
-Scope <Scope>
-TimeWindow_StartTime <DateTime>
-WebAclArn <String>
-MaxItem <Int64>
-Select <String>
-PassThru <SwitchParameter>
-ClientConfig <AmazonWAFV2Config>

Description

Gets detailed information about a specified number of requests--a sample--that WAF randomly selects from among the first 5,000 requests that your Amazon Web Services resource received during a time range that you choose. You can specify a sample size of up to 500 requests, and you can specify any time range in the previous three hours. GetSampledRequests returns a time range, which is usually the time range that you specified. However, if your resource (such as a CloudFront distribution) received 5,000 requests before the specified time range elapsed, GetSampledRequests returns an updated time range. This new time range indicates the actual period during which WAF selected the requests in the sample.

Parameters

-ClientConfig <AmazonWAFV2Config>
Amazon.PowerShell.Cmdlets.WAF2.AmazonWAFV2ClientCmdlet.ClientConfig
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-MaxItem <Int64>
The number of requests that you want WAF to return from among the first 5,000 requests that your Amazon Web Services resource received during the time range. If your resource received fewer requests than the value of MaxItems, GetSampledRequests returns information about all of them.
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesMaxItems
-PassThru <SwitchParameter>
Changes the cmdlet behavior to return the value passed to the RuleMetricName parameter. The -PassThru parameter is deprecated, use -Select '^RuleMetricName' instead. This parameter will be removed in a future version.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-RuleMetricName <String>
The metric name assigned to the Rule or RuleGroup dimension for which you want a sample of requests.
Required?True
Position?1
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-Scope <Scope>
Specifies whether this is for an Amazon CloudFront distribution or for a regional application. A regional application can be an Application Load Balancer (ALB), an Amazon API Gateway REST API, an AppSync GraphQL API, an Amazon Cognito user pool, an App Runner service, or an Amazon Web Services Verified Access instance. To work with CloudFront, you must also specify the Region US East (N. Virginia) as follows:
  • CLI - Specify the Region when you use the CloudFront scope: --scope=CLOUDFRONT --region=us-east-1.
  • API and SDKs - For all calls, use the Region endpoint us-east-1.
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The default value is '*'. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.WAFV2.Model.GetSampledRequestsResponse). Specifying the name of a property of type Amazon.WAFV2.Model.GetSampledRequestsResponse will result in that property being returned. Specifying -Select '^ParameterName' will result in the cmdlet returning the selected cmdlet parameter value.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-TimeWindow_EndTime <DateTime>
The end of the time range from which you want GetSampledRequests to return a sample of the requests that your Amazon Web Services resource received. You must specify the times in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) format. UTC format includes the special designator, Z. For example, "2016-09-27T14:50Z". You can specify any time range in the previous three hours.
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-TimeWindow_StartTime <DateTime>
The beginning of the time range from which you want GetSampledRequests to return a sample of the requests that your Amazon Web Services resource received. You must specify the times in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) format. UTC format includes the special designator, Z. For example, "2016-09-27T14:50Z". You can specify any time range in the previous three hours.
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-WebAclArn <String>
The Amazon resource name (ARN) of the WebACL for which you want a sample of requests.
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)

Common Credential and Region Parameters

-AccessKey <String>
The AWS access key for the user account. This can be a temporary access key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesAK
-Credential <AWSCredentials>
An AWSCredentials object instance containing access and secret key information, and optionally a token for session-based credentials.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-EndpointUrl <String>
The endpoint to make the call against.Note: This parameter is primarily for internal AWS use and is not required/should not be specified for normal usage. The cmdlets normally determine which endpoint to call based on the region specified to the -Region parameter or set as default in the shell (via Set-DefaultAWSRegion). Only specify this parameter if you must direct the call to a specific custom endpoint.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-NetworkCredential <PSCredential>
Used with SAML-based authentication when ProfileName references a SAML role profile. Contains the network credentials to be supplied during authentication with the configured identity provider's endpoint. This parameter is not required if the user's default network identity can or should be used during authentication.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-ProfileLocation <String>
Used to specify the name and location of the ini-format credential file (shared with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs)If this optional parameter is omitted this cmdlet will search the encrypted credential file used by the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio first. If the profile is not found then the cmdlet will search in the ini-format credential file at the default location: (user's home directory)\.aws\credentials.If this parameter is specified then this cmdlet will only search the ini-format credential file at the location given.As the current folder can vary in a shell or during script execution it is advised that you use specify a fully qualified path instead of a relative path.
Required?False

Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesAWSProfilesLocation, ProfilesLocation
-ProfileName <String>
The user-defined name of an AWS credentials or SAML-based role profile containing credential information.

Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)

Outputs

Amazon.WAFV2.Model.GetSampledRequestsResponse
This cmdlet returns an Amazon.WAFV2.Model.GetSampledRequestsResponse object containing multiple properties. The object can also be referenced from properties attached to the cmdlet entry in the $AWSHistory stack.
