Request Parameters

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

VocabularyFilterFileUri

The Amazon S3 location of the text file that contains your custom vocabulary filter terms. The URI must be located in the same AWS Region as the resource you're calling.

Here's an example URI path: s3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/my-vocab-filter-file.txt

Words

Use this parameter if you want to update your vocabulary filter by including all desired terms, as comma-separated values, within your request.

Note that if you include Words in your request, you cannot use VocabularyFilterFileUri; you must choose one or the other.

Each language has a character set that contains all allowed characters for that specific language. If you use unsupported characters, your vocabulary filter request fails. Refer to Character Sets for Custom Vocabularies to get the character set for your language.
