#use_onlyString

The recording strategy for the configuration recorder.

  • If you set this option to ALL_SUPPORTED_RESOURCE_TYPES, Config records configuration changes for all supported resource types, excluding the global IAM resource types. You also must set the allSupported field of RecordingGroup to true. When Config adds support for a new resource type, Config automatically starts recording resources of that type. For a list of supported resource types, see Supported Resource Types in the Config developer guide.

  • If you set this option to INCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES, Config records configuration changes for only the resource types that you specify in the resourceTypes field of RecordingGroup.

  • If you set this option to EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES, Config records configuration changes for all supported resource types, except the resource types that you specify to exclude from being recorded in the resourceTypes field of ExclusionByResourceTypes.

Required and optional fields

The recordingStrategy field is optional when you set the allSupported field of RecordingGroup to true.

The recordingStrategy field is optional when you list resource types in the resourceTypes field of RecordingGroup.

The recordingStrategy field is required if you list resource types to exclude from recording in the resourceTypes field of ExclusionByResourceTypes.

Overriding fields

If you choose EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES for the recording strategy, the exclusionByResourceTypes field will override other properties in the request.

For example, even if you set includeGlobalResourceTypes to false, global IAM resource types will still be automatically recorded in this option unless those resource types are specifically listed as exclusions in the resourceTypes field of exclusionByResourceTypes.

Global resource types and the exclusion recording strategy

By default, if you choose the EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES recording strategy, when Config adds support for a new resource type in the Region where you set up the configuration recorder, including global resource types, Config starts recording resources of that type automatically.

Unless specifically listed as exclusions, AWS::RDS::GlobalCluster will be recorded automatically in all supported Config Regions were the configuration recorder is enabled.

IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed policies will be recorded in the Region where you set up the configuration recorder if that is a Region where Config was available before February 2022. You cannot be record the global IAM resouce types in Regions supported by Config after February 2022. This list where you cannot record the global IAM resource types includes the following Regions:

  • Asia Pacific (Hyderabad)

  • Asia Pacific (Melbourne)

  • Canada West (Calgary)

  • Europe (Spain)

  • Europe (Zurich)

  • Israel (Tel Aviv)

  • Middle East (UAE)

Returns:

  • (String)
