AWS services or capabilities described in AWS Documentation may vary by region/location. Click Getting Started with Amazon AWS to see specific differences applicable to the China (Beijing) Region.

Container for the parameters to the TestState operation. Accepts the definition of a single state and executes it. You can test a state without creating a state machine or updating an existing state machine. Using this API, you can test the following:

You can call this API on only one state at a time. The states that you can test include the following:

The TestState API assumes an IAM role which must contain the required IAM permissions for the resources your state is accessing. For information about the permissions a state might need, see IAM permissions to test a state.

The TestState API can run for up to five minutes. If the execution of a state exceeds this duration, it fails with the States.Timeout error.

TestState doesn't support Activity tasks, .sync or .waitForTaskToken service integration patterns, Parallel, or Map states.

Properties

NameTypeDescription
Public Property Definition System.String

Gets and sets the property Definition.

The Amazon States Language (ASL) definition of the state.

Public Property Input System.String

Gets and sets the property Input.

A string that contains the JSON input data for the state.

Public Property InspectionLevel Amazon.StepFunctions.InspectionLevel

Gets and sets the property InspectionLevel.

Determines the values to return when a state is tested. You can specify one of the following types:

  • INFO: Shows the final state output. By default, Step Functions sets inspectionLevel to INFO if you don't specify a level.

  • DEBUG: Shows the final state output along with the input and output data processing result.

  • TRACE: Shows the HTTP request and response for an HTTP Task. This level also shows the final state output along with the input and output data processing result.

Each of these levels also provide information about the status of the state execution and the next state to transition to.

Public Property RevealSecrets System.Boolean

Gets and sets the property RevealSecrets.

Specifies whether or not to include secret information in the test result. For HTTP Tasks, a secret includes the data that an EventBridge connection adds to modify the HTTP request headers, query parameters, and body. Step Functions doesn't omit any information included in the state definition or the HTTP response.

If you set revealSecrets to true, you must make sure that the IAM user that calls the TestState API has permission for the states:RevealSecrets action. For an example of IAM policy that sets the states:RevealSecrets permission, see IAM permissions to test a state. Without this permission, Step Functions throws an access denied error.

By default, revealSecrets is set to false.

Public Property RoleArn System.String

Gets and sets the property RoleArn.

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the execution role with the required IAM permissions for the state.

Public Property Variables System.String

Gets and sets the property Variables.

JSON object literal that sets variables used in the state under test. Object keys are the variable names and values are the variable values.
