WAF
This is the latest version of the WAF API, released in November, 2019. The names of the entities that you use to access this API, like endpoints and namespaces, all have the versioning information added, like "V2" or "v2", to distinguish from the prior version. We recommend migrating your resources to this version, because it has a number of significant improvements.
If you used WAF prior to this release, you can't use this WAFV2 API to access any WAF resources that you created before. You can access your old rules, web ACLs, and other WAF resources only through the WAF Classic APIs. The WAF Classic APIs have retained the prior names, endpoints, and namespaces.
For information, including how to migrate your WAF resources to this version, see the .
WAF is a web application firewall that lets you monitor the HTTP and HTTPS requests that are forwarded to an Amazon CloudFront distribution, Amazon API Gateway REST API, Application Load Balancer, AppSync GraphQL API, Amazon Cognito user pool, or App Runner service. WAF also lets you control access to your content, to protect the Amazon Web Services resource that WAF is monitoring. Based on conditions that you specify, such as the IP addresses that requests originate from or the values of query strings, the protected resource responds to requests with either the requested content, an HTTP 403 status code (Forbidden), or with a custom response.
This API guide is for developers who need detailed information about WAF API actions, data types, and errors. For detailed information about WAF features and guidance for configuring and using WAF, see the .
You can make calls using the endpoints listed in .
-
For regional applications, you can use any of the endpoints in the list. A regional application can be an Application Load Balancer (ALB), an Amazon API Gateway REST API, an AppSync GraphQL API, an Amazon Cognito user pool, or an App Runner service.
-
For Amazon CloudFront applications, you must use the API endpoint listed for US East (N. Virginia): us-east-1.
Alternatively, you can use one of the Amazon Web Services SDKs to access an API that's tailored to the programming language or platform that you're using. For more information, see .
We currently provide two versions of the WAF API: this API and the prior versions, the classic WAF APIs. This new API provides the same functionality as the older versions, with the following major improvements:
-
You use one API for both global and regional applications. Where you need to distinguish the scope, you specify a
Scopeparameter and set it toCLOUDFRONTorREGIONAL. -
You can define a web ACL or rule group with a single call, and update it with a single call. You define all rule specifications in JSON format, and pass them to your rule group or web ACL calls.
-
The limits WAF places on the use of rules more closely reflects the cost of running each type of rule. Rule groups include capacity settings, so you know the maximum cost of a rule group when you use it.

xAmzTargetAwswaf20190729AssociateWebAcl.associateWebAclAssociates a web ACL with a regional application resource, to protect the resource. A regional application can be an Application Load Balancer (ALB), an Amazon API Gateway REST API, an AppSync GraphQL API, an Amazon Cognito user pool, or an App Runner service.
For Amazon CloudFront, don't use this call. Instead, use your CloudFront distribution configuration. To associate a web ACL, in the CloudFront call
UpdateDistribution, set the web ACL ID to the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the web ACL. For information, see in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.When you make changes to web ACLs or web ACL components, like rules and rule groups, WAF propagates the changes everywhere that the web ACL and its components are stored and used. Your changes are applied within seconds, but there might be a brief period of inconsistency when the changes have arrived in some places and not in others. So, for example, if you change a rule action setting, the action might be the old action in one area and the new action in another area. Or if you add an IP address to an IP set used in a blocking rule, the new address might briefly be blocked in one area while still allowed in another. This temporary inconsistency can occur when you first associate a web ACL with an Amazon Web Services resource and when you change a web ACL that is already associated with a resource. Generally, any inconsistencies of this type last only a few seconds.
-
xAmzTargetAwswaf20190729CheckCapacity.checkCapacityReturns the web ACL capacity unit (WCU) requirements for a specified scope and set of rules. You can use this to check the capacity requirements for the rules you want to use in a RuleGroup [blocked] or WebACL [blocked].
WAF uses WCUs to calculate and control the operating resources that are used to run your rules, rule groups, and web ACLs. WAF calculates capacity differently for each rule type, to reflect the relative cost of each rule. Simple rules that cost little to run use fewer WCUs than more complex rules that use more processing power. Rule group capacity is fixed at creation, which helps users plan their web ACL WCU usage when they use a rule group. For more information, see in the WAF Developer Guide.
-
xAmzTargetAwswaf20190729CreateApiKey.createApiKeyCreates an API key for use in the integration of the CAPTCHA API in your JavaScript client applications. The integration lets you customize the placement and characteristics of the CAPTCHA puzzle for your end users. For more information about the CAPTCHA JavaScript integration, see in the WAF Developer Guide.
The CAPTCHA API requires a key that authorizes CAPTCHA use from the client application domain. You can use a single key for up to 5 domains. After you generate a key, you can copy it for use in your JavaScript integration.
-
xAmzTargetAwswaf20190729CreateIpSet.createIpSetCreates an IPSet [blocked], which you use to identify web requests that originate from specific IP addresses or ranges of IP addresses. For example, if you're receiving a lot of requests from a ranges of IP addresses, you can configure WAF to block them using an IPSet that lists those IP addresses.
-
xAmzTargetAwswaf20190729CreateRegexPatternSet.createRegexPatternSetCreates a RegexPatternSet [blocked], which you reference in a RegexPatternSetReferenceStatement [blocked], to have WAF inspect a web request component for the specified patterns.
-
xAmzTargetAwswaf20190729CreateRuleGroup.createRuleGroupCreates a RuleGroup [blocked] per the specifications provided.
A rule group defines a collection of rules to inspect and control web requests that you can use in a WebACL [blocked]. When you create a rule group, you define an immutable capacity limit. If you update a rule group, you must stay within the capacity. This allows others to reuse the rule group with confidence in its capacity requirements.
-
xAmzTargetAwswaf20190729CreateWebAcl.createWebAclCreates a WebACL [blocked] per the specifications provided.
A web ACL defines a collection of rules to use to inspect and control web requests. Each rule has an action defined (allow, block, or count) for requests that match the statement of the rule. In the web ACL, you assign a default action to take (allow, block) for any request that does not match any of the rules. The rules in a web ACL can be a combination of the types Rule [blocked], RuleGroup [blocked], and managed rule group. You can associate a web ACL with one or more Amazon Web Services resources to protect. The resources can be an Amazon CloudFront distribution, an Amazon API Gateway REST API, an Application Load Balancer, an AppSync GraphQL API, an Amazon Cognito user pool, or an App Runner service.
-
xAmzTargetAwswaf20190729DeleteFirewallManagerRuleGroups.deleteFirewallManagerRuleGroupsDeletes all rule groups that are managed by Firewall Manager for the specified web ACL.
You can only use this if
ManagedByFirewallManageris false in the specified WebACL [blocked]. -

This is intended for use only by vendors of managed rule sets. Vendors are Amazon Web Services and Amazon Web Services Marketplace sellers.
Vendors, you can use the managed rule set APIs to provide controlled rollout of your versioned managed rule group offerings for your customers. The APIs are
ListManagedRuleSets,GetManagedRuleSet,PutManagedRuleSetVersions, andUpdateManagedRuleSetVersionExpiryDate. -
xAmzTargetAwswaf20190729GetMobileSdkRelease.getMobileSdkReleaseRetrieves information for the specified mobile SDK release, including release notes and tags.
The mobile SDK is not generally available. Customers who have access to the mobile SDK can use it to establish and manage WAF tokens for use in HTTP(S) requests from a mobile device to WAF. For more information, see in the WAF Developer Guide.
-
xAmzTargetAwswaf20190729GetPermissionPolicy.getPermissionPolicyReturns the IAM policy that is attached to the specified rule group.
You must be the owner of the rule group to perform this operation.
-
xAmzTargetAwswaf20190729GetRateBasedStatementManagedKeys.getRateBasedStatementManagedKeysRetrieves the keys that are currently blocked by a rate-based rule instance. The maximum number of managed keys that can be blocked for a single rate-based rule instance is 10,000. If more than 10,000 addresses exceed the rate limit, those with the highest rates are blocked.
For a rate-based rule that you've defined inside a rule group, provide the name of the rule group reference statement in your request, in addition to the rate-based rule name and the web ACL name.
WAF monitors web requests and manages keys independently for each unique combination of web ACL, optional rule group, and rate-based rule. For example, if you define a rate-based rule inside a rule group, and then use the rule group in a web ACL, WAF monitors web requests and manages keys for that web ACL, rule group reference statement, and rate-based rule instance. If you use the same rule group in a second web ACL, WAF monitors web requests and manages keys for this second usage completely independent of your first.
-
xAmzTargetAwswaf20190729GetRegexPatternSet.getRegexPatternSetRetrieves the specified RegexPatternSet [blocked].

You can specify a sample size of up to 500 requests, and you can specify any time range in the previous three hours.
GetSampledRequestsreturns a time range, which is usually the time range that you specified. However, if your resource (such as a CloudFront distribution) received 5,000 requests before the specified time range elapsed,GetSampledRequestsreturns an updated time range. This new time range indicates the actual period during which WAF selected the requests in the sample. -

This operation completely replaces any mutable specifications that you already have for a logging configuration with the ones that you provide to this call.
To modify an existing logging configuration, do the following:
-
Retrieve it by calling GetLoggingConfiguration [blocked]
-
Update its settings as needed
-
Provide the complete logging configuration specification to this call
You can define one logging destination per web ACL.
You can access information about the traffic that WAF inspects using the following steps:
-
Create your logging destination. You can use an Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group, an Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket, or an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose.
The name that you give the destination must start with
aws-waf-logs-. Depending on the type of destination, you might need to configure additional settings or permissions.For configuration requirements and pricing information for each destination type, see in the WAF Developer Guide.
-
Associate your logging destination to your web ACL using a
PutLoggingConfigurationrequest.
When you successfully enable logging using a
PutLoggingConfigurationrequest, WAF creates an additional role or policy that is required to write logs to the logging destination. For an Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group, WAF creates a resource policy on the log group. For an Amazon S3 bucket, WAF creates a bucket policy. For an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose, WAF creates a service-linked role.For additional information about web ACL logging, see in the WAF Developer Guide.
