CreationPath

The path of the account creation endpoint for your application. This is the page on your website that accepts the completed registration form for a new user. This page must accept POST requests.

For example, for the URL https://example.com/web/newaccount, you would provide the path /web/newaccount. Account creation page paths that start with the path that you provide are considered a match. For example /web/newaccount matches the account creation paths /web/newaccount, /web/newaccount/, /web/newaccountPage, and /web/newaccount/thisPage, but doesn't match the path /home/web/newaccount or /website/newaccount.

ResponseInspection

The criteria for inspecting responses to account creation requests, used by the ACFP rule group to track account creation success rates.

Note

Response inspection is available only in web ACLs that protect Amazon CloudFront distributions.

The ACFP rule group evaluates the responses that your protected resources send back to client account creation attempts, keeping count of successful and failed attempts from each IP address and client session. Using this information, the rule group labels and mitigates requests from client sessions and IP addresses that have had too many successful account creation attempts in a short amount of time.
