put-organization-config-rule

Description

Adds or updates an Config rule for your entire organization to evaluate if your Amazon Web Services resources comply with your desired configurations. For information on how many organization Config rules you can have per account, see ` Service Limits https://docs.aws.amazon.com/config/latest/developerguide/configlimits.html`__ in the Config Developer Guide .

Only a management account and a delegated administrator can create or update an organization Config rule. When calling this API with a delegated administrator, you must ensure Organizations ListDelegatedAdministrator permissions are added. An organization can have up to 3 delegated administrators.

This API enables organization service access through the EnableAWSServiceAccess action and creates a service-linked role AWSServiceRoleForConfigMultiAccountSetup in the management or delegated administrator account of your organization. The service-linked role is created only when the role does not exist in the caller account. Config verifies the existence of role with GetRole action.

To use this API with delegated administrator, register a delegated administrator by calling Amazon Web Services Organization register-delegated-administrator for config-multiaccountsetup.amazonaws.com .

There are two types of rules: Config Managed Rules and Config Custom Rules . You can use PutOrganizationConfigRule to create both Config Managed Rules and Config Custom Rules.

Config Managed Rules are predefined, customizable rules created by Config. For a list of managed rules, see List of Config Managed Rules . If you are adding an Config managed rule, you must specify the rule's identifier for the RuleIdentifier key.

Config Custom Rules are rules that you create from scratch. There are two ways to create Config custom rules: with Lambda functions (Lambda Developer Guide ) and with Guard (Guard GitHub Repository ), a policy-as-code language. Config custom rules created with Lambda are called Config Custom Lambda Rules and Config custom rules created with Guard are called Config Custom Policy Rules .

If you are adding a new Config Custom Lambda rule, you first need to create an Lambda function in the management account or a delegated administrator that the rule invokes to evaluate your resources. You also need to create an IAM role in the managed account that can be assumed by the Lambda function. When you use PutOrganizationConfigRule to add a Custom Lambda rule to Config, you must specify the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) that Lambda assigns to the function.

Note

Prerequisite: Ensure you call EnableAllFeatures API to enable all features in an organization.

Make sure to specify one of either OrganizationCustomPolicyRuleMetadata for Custom Policy rules, OrganizationCustomRuleMetadata for Custom Lambda rules, or OrganizationManagedRuleMetadata for managed rules.

Description -> (string)

The description that you provide for your organization Config rule.

RuleIdentifier -> (string)

For organization config managed rules, a predefined identifier from a list. For example, IAM_PASSWORD_POLICY is a managed rule. To reference a managed rule, see Using Config managed rules .

InputParameters -> (string)

A string, in JSON format, that is passed to your organization Config rule Lambda function.

MaximumExecutionFrequency -> (string)

The maximum frequency with which Config runs evaluations for a rule. This is for an Config managed rule that is triggered at a periodic frequency.

Note

By default, rules with a periodic trigger are evaluated every 24 hours. To change the frequency, specify a valid value for the MaximumExecutionFrequency parameter.

(string)

ResourceIdScope -> (string)

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
