Description

Updates an existing Amazon Lightsail content delivery network (CDN) distribution. Use this action to update the configuration of your existing distribution.

Parameters

-CacheBehavior <CacheBehaviorPerPath[]>

AliasesCacheBehaviors
-CacheBehaviorSettings_AllowedHTTPMethod <String>
The HTTP methods that are processed and forwarded to the distribution's origin.You can specify the following options:
  • GET,HEAD - The distribution forwards the GET and HEAD methods.
  • GET,HEAD,OPTIONS - The distribution forwards the GET, HEAD, and OPTIONS methods.
  • GET,HEAD,OPTIONS,PUT,PATCH,POST,DELETE - The distribution forwards the GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, PUT, PATCH, POST, and DELETE methods.
If you specify the third option, you might need to restrict access to your distribution's origin so users can't perform operations that you don't want them to. For example, you might not want users to have permission to delete objects from your origin.
Required?False
Position?Named
