Overview

Constructs a service interface object. Each API operation is exposed as a function on service.

Service Description

This is the CloudTrail API Reference. It provides descriptions of actions, data types, common parameters, and common errors for CloudTrail.

CloudTrail is a web service that records AWS API calls for your AWS account and delivers log files to an Amazon S3 bucket. The recorded information includes the identity of the user, the start time of the AWS API call, the source IP address, the request parameters, and the response elements returned by the service.

Note: As an alternative to the API, you can use one of the AWS SDKs, which consist of libraries and sample code for various programming languages and platforms (Java, Ruby, .NET, iOS, Android, etc.). The SDKs provide a convenient way to create programmatic access to AWSCloudTrail. For example, the SDKs take care of cryptographically signing requests, managing errors, and retrying requests automatically. For information about the AWS SDKs, including how to download and install them, see the Tools for Amazon Web Services page.

See the AWS CloudTrail User Guide for information about the data that is included with each AWS API call listed in the log files.

Sending a Request Using CloudTrail

var cloudtrail = new AWS.CloudTrail();
cloudtrail.addTags(params, function (err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Locking the API Version

In order to ensure that the CloudTrail object uses this specific API, you can construct the object by passing the apiVersion option to the constructor:

var cloudtrail = new AWS.CloudTrail({apiVersion: '2013-11-01'});

You can also set the API version globally in AWS.config.apiVersions using the cloudtrail service identifier:

AWS.config.apiVersions = {
  cloudtrail: '2013-11-01',
  // other service API versions
};

var cloudtrail = new AWS.CloudTrail();

getEventSelectors(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Describes the settings for the event selectors that you configured for your trail. The information returned for your event selectors includes the following:

  • If your event selector includes read-only events, write-only events, or all events. This applies to both management events and data events.

  • If your event selector includes management events.

  • If your event selector includes data events, the resources on which you are logging data events.

For more information, see Logging Data and Management Events for Trails in the AWS CloudTrail User Guide.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the getEventSelectors operation

var params = {
  TrailName: 'STRING_VALUE' /* required */
};
cloudtrail.getEventSelectors(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {}) —
    • TrailName — (String)

      Specifies the name of the trail or trail ARN. If you specify a trail name, the string must meet the following requirements:

      • Contain only ASCII letters (a-z, A-Z), numbers (0-9), periods (.), underscores (_), or dashes (-)

      • Start with a letter or number, and end with a letter or number

      • Be between 3 and 128 characters

      • Have no adjacent periods, underscores or dashes. Names like my-_namespace and my--namespace are not valid.

      • Not be in IP address format (for example, 192.168.5.4)

      If you specify a trail ARN, it must be in the format:

      arn:aws:cloudtrail:us-east-2:123456789012:trail/MyTrail

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response) —

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error) —

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object) —

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • TrailARN — (String)

        The specified trail ARN that has the event selectors.

      • EventSelectors — (Array<map>)

        The event selectors that are configured for the trail.

        • ReadWriteType — (String)

          Specify if you want your trail to log read-only events, write-only events, or all. For example, the EC2 GetConsoleOutput is a read-only API operation and RunInstances is a write-only API operation.

          By default, the value is All.

          Possible values include:
          • "ReadOnly"
          • "WriteOnly"
          • "All"
        • IncludeManagementEvents — (Boolean)

          Specify if you want your event selector to include management events for your trail.

          For more information, see Management Events in the AWS CloudTrail User Guide.

          By default, the value is true.

          The first copy of management events is free. You are charged for additional copies of management events that you are logging on any subsequent trail in the same region. For more information about CloudTrail pricing, see AWS CloudTrail Pricing.

        • DataResources — (Array<map>)

          CloudTrail supports data event logging for Amazon S3 objects and AWS Lambda functions with basic event selectors. You can specify up to 250 resources for an individual event selector, but the total number of data resources cannot exceed 250 across all event selectors in a trail. This limit does not apply if you configure resource logging for all data events.

          For more information, see Data Events and Limits in AWS CloudTrail in the AWS CloudTrail User Guide.

          • Type — (String)

            The resource type in which you want to log data events. You can specify AWS::S3::Object, AWS::Lambda::Function, or AWS::DynamoDB::Table resources.

            The AWS::S3Outposts::Object, AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node, and AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint resource types are not valid in basic event selectors. To log data events on these resource types, use advanced event selectors.

          • Values — (Array<String>)

            An array of Amazon Resource Name (ARN) strings or partial ARN strings for the specified objects.

            • To log data events for all objects in all S3 buckets in your AWS account, specify the prefix as arn:aws:s3:::.

              Note: This will also enable logging of data event activity performed by any user or role in your AWS account, even if that activity is performed on a bucket that belongs to another AWS account.

            • To log data events for all objects in an S3 bucket, specify the bucket and an empty object prefix such as arn:aws:s3:::bucket-1/. The trail logs data events for all objects in this S3 bucket.

            • To log data events for specific objects, specify the S3 bucket and object prefix such as arn:aws:s3:::bucket-1/example-images. The trail logs data events for objects in this S3 bucket that match the prefix.

            • To log data events for all Lambda functions in your AWS account, specify the prefix as arn:aws:lambda.

              Note: This will also enable logging of Invoke activity performed by any user or role in your AWS account, even if that activity is performed on a function that belongs to another AWS account.

            • To log data events for a specific Lambda function, specify the function ARN.

              Note: Lambda function ARNs are exact. For example, if you specify a function ARN arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111111:function:helloworld, data events will only be logged for arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111111:function:helloworld. They will not be logged for arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111111:function:helloworld2.

            • To log data events for all DynamoDB tables in your AWS account, specify the prefix as arn:aws:dynamodb.

        • ExcludeManagementEventSources — (Array<String>)

          An optional list of service event sources from which you do not want management events to be logged on your trail. In this release, the list can be empty (disables the filter), or it can filter out AWS Key Management Service events by containing "kms.amazonaws.com". By default, ExcludeManagementEventSources is empty, and AWS KMS events are included in events that are logged to your trail.

      • AdvancedEventSelectors — (Array<map>)

        The advanced event selectors that are configured for the trail.

        • Name — (String)

          An optional, descriptive name for an advanced event selector, such as "Log data events for only two S3 buckets".

        • FieldSelectors — required — (Array<map>)

          Contains all selector statements in an advanced event selector.

          • Field — required — (String)

            A field in an event record on which to filter events to be logged. Supported fields include readOnly, eventCategory, eventSource (for management events), eventName, resources.type, and resources.ARN.

            • readOnly - Optional. Can be set to Equals a value of true or false. A value of false logs both read and write events.

            • eventSource - For filtering management events only. This can be set only to NotEquals kms.amazonaws.com.

            • eventName - Can use any operator. You can use it to filter in or filter out any data event logged to CloudTrail, such as PutBucket. You can have multiple values for this field, separated by commas.

            • eventCategory - This is required. It must be set to Equals, and the value must be Management or Data.

            • resources.type - This field is required. resources.type can only use the Equals operator, and the value can be one of the following: AWS::S3::Object, AWS::Lambda::Function, AWS::DynamoDB::Table, AWS::S3Outposts::Object, AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node, or AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint. You can have only one resources.type field per selector. To log data events on more than one resource type, add another selector.

            • resources.ARN - You can use any operator with resources.ARN, but if you use Equals or NotEquals, the value must exactly match the ARN of a valid resource of the type you've specified in the template as the value of resources.type. For example, if resources.type equals AWS::S3::Object, the ARN must be in one of the following formats. To log all data events for all objects in a specific S3 bucket, use the StartsWith operator, and include only the bucket ARN as the matching value.

              The trailing slash is intentional; do not exclude it.

              • arn:partition:s3:::bucket_name/

              • arn:partition:s3:::bucket_name/object_or_file_name/

              When resources.type equals AWS::Lambda::Function, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

              • arn:partition:lambda:region:account_ID:function:function_name

              When resources.type equals AWS::DynamoDB::Table, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

              • arn:partition:dynamodb:region:account_ID:table:table_name

              When resources.type equals AWS::S3Outposts::Object, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

              • arn:partition:s3-outposts:region:>account_ID:object_path

              When resources.type equals AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

              • arn:partition:managedblockchain:region:account_ID:nodes/node_ID

              When resources.type equals AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

              • arn:partition:s3-object-lambda:region:account_ID:accesspoint/access_point_name

          • Equals — (Array<String>)

            An operator that includes events that match the exact value of the event record field specified as the value of Field. This is the only valid operator that you can use with the readOnly, eventCategory, and resources.type fields.

          • StartsWith — (Array<String>)

            An operator that includes events that match the first few characters of the event record field specified as the value of Field.

          • EndsWith — (Array<String>)

            An operator that includes events that match the last few characters of the event record field specified as the value of Field.

          • NotEquals — (Array<String>)

            An operator that excludes events that match the exact value of the event record field specified as the value of Field.

          • NotStartsWith — (Array<String>)

            An operator that excludes events that match the first few characters of the event record field specified as the value of Field.

          • NotEndsWith — (Array<String>)

            An operator that excludes events that match the last few characters of the event record field specified as the value of Field.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request) —

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

putEventSelectors(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Configures an event selector or advanced event selectors for your trail. Use event selectors or advanced event selectors to specify management and data event settings for your trail. By default, trails created without specific event selectors are configured to log all read and write management events, and no data events.

When an event occurs in your account, CloudTrail evaluates the event selectors or advanced event selectors in all trails. For each trail, if the event matches any event selector, the trail processes and logs the event. If the event doesn't match any event selector, the trail doesn't log the event.

Example

  1. You create an event selector for a trail and specify that you want write-only events.

  2. The EC2 GetConsoleOutput and RunInstances API operations occur in your account.

  3. CloudTrail evaluates whether the events match your event selectors.

  4. The RunInstances is a write-only event and it matches your event selector. The trail logs the event.

  5. The GetConsoleOutput is a read-only event that doesn't match your event selector. The trail doesn't log the event.

The PutEventSelectors operation must be called from the region in which the trail was created; otherwise, an InvalidHomeRegionException exception is thrown.

You can configure up to five event selectors for each trail. For more information, see Logging data and management events for trails and Quotas in AWS CloudTrail in the AWS CloudTrail User Guide.

You can add advanced event selectors, and conditions for your advanced event selectors, up to a maximum of 500 values for all conditions and selectors on a trail. You can use either AdvancedEventSelectors or EventSelectors, but not both. If you apply AdvancedEventSelectors to a trail, any existing EventSelectors are overwritten. For more information about advanced event selectors, see Logging data events for trails in the AWS CloudTrail User Guide.

});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {}) —
    • TrailName — (String)

      Specifies the name of the trail or trail ARN. If you specify a trail name, the string must meet the following requirements:

      • Contain only ASCII letters (a-z, A-Z), numbers (0-9), periods (.), underscores (_), or dashes (-)

      • Start with a letter or number, and end with a letter or number

      • Be between 3 and 128 characters

      • Have no adjacent periods, underscores or dashes. Names like my-_namespace and my--namespace are invalid.

      • Not be in IP address format (for example, 192.168.5.4)

      If you specify a trail ARN, it must be in the format:

      arn:aws:cloudtrail:us-east-2:123456789012:trail/MyTrail

    • EventSelectors — (Array<map>)

      Specifies the settings for your event selectors. You can configure up to five event selectors for a trail. You can use either EventSelectors or AdvancedEventSelectors in a PutEventSelectors request, but not both. If you apply EventSelectors to a trail, any existing AdvancedEventSelectors are overwritten.

      • ReadWriteType — (String)

        Specify if you want your trail to log read-only events, write-only events, or all. For example, the EC2 GetConsoleOutput is a read-only API operation and RunInstances is a write-only API operation.

        By default, the value is All.

        Possible values include:
        • "ReadOnly"
        • "WriteOnly"
        • "All"
      • IncludeManagementEvents — (Boolean)

        Specify if you want your event selector to include management events for your trail.

        For more information, see Management Events in the AWS CloudTrail User Guide.

        By default, the value is true.

        The first copy of management events is free. You are charged for additional copies of management events that you are logging on any subsequent trail in the same region. For more information about CloudTrail pricing, see AWS CloudTrail Pricing.

      • DataResources — (Array<map>)

        CloudTrail supports data event logging for Amazon S3 objects and AWS Lambda functions with basic event selectors. You can specify up to 250 resources for an individual event selector, but the total number of data resources cannot exceed 250 across all event selectors in a trail. This limit does not apply if you configure resource logging for all data events.

        For more information, see Data Events and Limits in AWS CloudTrail in the AWS CloudTrail User Guide.

        • Type — (String)

          The resource type in which you want to log data events. You can specify AWS::S3::Object, AWS::Lambda::Function, or AWS::DynamoDB::Table resources.

          The AWS::S3Outposts::Object, AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node, and AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint resource types are not valid in basic event selectors. To log data events on these resource types, use advanced event selectors.

        • Values — (Array<String>)

          An array of Amazon Resource Name (ARN) strings or partial ARN strings for the specified objects.

          • To log data events for all objects in all S3 buckets in your AWS account, specify the prefix as arn:aws:s3:::.

            Note: This will also enable logging of data event activity performed by any user or role in your AWS account, even if that activity is performed on a bucket that belongs to another AWS account.

          • To log data events for all objects in an S3 bucket, specify the bucket and an empty object prefix such as arn:aws:s3:::bucket-1/. The trail logs data events for all objects in this S3 bucket.

          • To log data events for specific objects, specify the S3 bucket and object prefix such as arn:aws:s3:::bucket-1/example-images. The trail logs data events for objects in this S3 bucket that match the prefix.

          • To log data events for all Lambda functions in your AWS account, specify the prefix as arn:aws:lambda.

            Note: This will also enable logging of Invoke activity performed by any user or role in your AWS account, even if that activity is performed on a function that belongs to another AWS account.

          • To log data events for a specific Lambda function, specify the function ARN.

            Note: Lambda function ARNs are exact. For example, if you specify a function ARN arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111111:function:helloworld, data events will only be logged for arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111111:function:helloworld. They will not be logged for arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111111:function:helloworld2.

          • To log data events for all DynamoDB tables in your AWS account, specify the prefix as arn:aws:dynamodb.

      • ExcludeManagementEventSources — (Array<String>)

        An optional list of service event sources from which you do not want management events to be logged on your trail. In this release, the list can be empty (disables the filter), or it can filter out AWS Key Management Service events by containing "kms.amazonaws.com". By default, ExcludeManagementEventSources is empty, and AWS KMS events are included in events that are logged to your trail.

    • AdvancedEventSelectors — (Array<map>)

      Specifies the settings for advanced event selectors. You can add advanced event selectors, and conditions for your advanced event selectors, up to a maximum of 500 values for all conditions and selectors on a trail. You can use either AdvancedEventSelectors or EventSelectors, but not both. If you apply AdvancedEventSelectors to a trail, any existing EventSelectors are overwritten. For more information about advanced event selectors, see Logging data events for trails in the AWS CloudTrail User Guide.

      • Name — (String)

        An optional, descriptive name for an advanced event selector, such as "Log data events for only two S3 buckets".

      • FieldSelectors — required — (Array<map>)

        Contains all selector statements in an advanced event selector.

        • Field — required — (String)

          A field in an event record on which to filter events to be logged. Supported fields include readOnly, eventCategory, eventSource (for management events), eventName, resources.type, and resources.ARN.

          • readOnly - Optional. Can be set to Equals a value of true or false. A value of false logs both read and write events.

          • eventSource - For filtering management events only. This can be set only to NotEquals kms.amazonaws.com.

          • eventName - Can use any operator. You can use it to filter in or filter out any data event logged to CloudTrail, such as PutBucket. You can have multiple values for this field, separated by commas.

          • eventCategory - This is required. It must be set to Equals, and the value must be Management or Data.

          • resources.type - This field is required. resources.type can only use the Equals operator, and the value can be one of the following: AWS::S3::Object, AWS::Lambda::Function, AWS::DynamoDB::Table, AWS::S3Outposts::Object, AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node, or AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint. You can have only one resources.type field per selector. To log data events on more than one resource type, add another selector.

          • resources.ARN - You can use any operator with resources.ARN, but if you use Equals or NotEquals, the value must exactly match the ARN of a valid resource of the type you've specified in the template as the value of resources.type. For example, if resources.type equals AWS::S3::Object, the ARN must be in one of the following formats. To log all data events for all objects in a specific S3 bucket, use the StartsWith operator, and include only the bucket ARN as the matching value.

            The trailing slash is intentional; do not exclude it.

            • arn:partition:s3:::bucket_name/

            • arn:partition:s3:::bucket_name/object_or_file_name/

            When resources.type equals AWS::Lambda::Function, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

            • arn:partition:lambda:region:account_ID:function:function_name

            When resources.type equals AWS::DynamoDB::Table, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

            • arn:partition:dynamodb:region:account_ID:table:table_name

            When resources.type equals AWS::S3Outposts::Object, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

            • arn:partition:s3-outposts:region:>account_ID:object_path

            When resources.type equals AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

            • arn:partition:managedblockchain:region:account_ID:nodes/node_ID

            When resources.type equals AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

            • arn:partition:s3-object-lambda:region:account_ID:accesspoint/access_point_name

        • Equals — (Array<String>)

          An operator that includes events that match the exact value of the event record field specified as the value of Field. This is the only valid operator that you can use with the readOnly, eventCategory, and resources.type fields.

        • StartsWith — (Array<String>)

          An operator that includes events that match the first few characters of the event record field specified as the value of Field.

        • EndsWith — (Array<String>)

        arn:aws:cloudtrail:us-east-2:123456789012:trail/MyTrail

      • EventSelectors — (Array<map>)

        Specifies the event selectors configured for your trail.

        • ReadWriteType — (String)

          Specify if you want your trail to log read-only events, write-only events, or all. For example, the EC2 GetConsoleOutput is a read-only API operation and RunInstances is a write-only API operation.

          By default, the value is All.

          Possible values include:
          • "ReadOnly"
          • "WriteOnly"
          • "All"
        • IncludeManagementEvents — (Boolean)

          Specify if you want your event selector to include management events for your trail.

          For more information, see Management Events in the AWS CloudTrail User Guide.

          By default, the value is true.

          The first copy of management events is free. You are charged for additional copies of management events that you are logging on any subsequent trail in the same region. For more information about CloudTrail pricing, see AWS CloudTrail Pricing.

        • DataResources — (Array<map>)

          CloudTrail supports data event logging for Amazon S3 objects and AWS Lambda functions with basic event selectors. You can specify up to 250 resources for an individual event selector, but the total number of data resources cannot exceed 250 across all event selectors in a trail. This limit does not apply if you configure resource logging for all data events.

          For more information, see Data Events and Limits in AWS CloudTrail in the AWS CloudTrail User Guide.

          • Type — (String)

            The resource type in which you want to log data events. You can specify AWS::S3::Object, AWS::Lambda::Function, or AWS::DynamoDB::Table resources.

            The AWS::S3Outposts::Object, AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node, and AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint resource types are not valid in basic event selectors. To log data events on these resource types, use advanced event selectors.

          • Values — (Array<String>)

            An array of Amazon Resource Name (ARN) strings or partial ARN strings for the specified objects.

            • To log data events for all objects in all S3 buckets in your AWS account, specify the prefix as arn:aws:s3:::.

              Note: This will also enable logging of data event activity performed by any user or role in your AWS account, even if that activity is performed on a bucket that belongs to another AWS account.

            • To log data events for all objects in an S3 bucket, specify the bucket and an empty object prefix such as arn:aws:s3:::bucket-1/. The trail logs data events for all objects in this S3 bucket.

            • To log data events for specific objects, specify the S3 bucket and object prefix such as arn:aws:s3:::bucket-1/example-images. The trail logs data events for objects in this S3 bucket that match the prefix.

            • To log data events for all Lambda functions in your AWS account, specify the prefix as arn:aws:lambda.

              Note: This will also enable logging of Invoke activity performed by any user or role in your AWS account, even if that activity is performed on a function that belongs to another AWS account.

            • To log data events for a specific Lambda function, specify the function ARN.

              Note: Lambda function ARNs are exact. For example, if you specify a function ARN arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111111:function:helloworld, data events will only be logged for arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111111:function:helloworld. They will not be logged for arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111111:function:helloworld2.

            • To log data events for all DynamoDB tables in your AWS account, specify the prefix as arn:aws:dynamodb.

        • ExcludeManagementEventSources — (Array<String>)

          An optional list of service event sources from which you do not want management events to be logged on your trail. In this release, the list can be empty (disables the filter), or it can filter out AWS Key Management Service events by containing "kms.amazonaws.com". By default, ExcludeManagementEventSources is empty, and AWS KMS events are included in events that are logged to your trail.

      • AdvancedEventSelectors — (Array<map>)

        Specifies the advanced event selectors configured for your trail.

        • Name — (String)

          An optional, descriptive name for an advanced event selector, such as "Log data events for only two S3 buckets".

        • FieldSelectors — required — (Array<map>)

          Contains all selector statements in an advanced event selector.

          • Field — required — (String)

            A field in an event record on which to filter events to be logged. Supported fields include readOnly, eventCategory, eventSource (for management events), eventName, resources.type, and resources.ARN.

            • readOnly - Optional. Can be set to Equals a value of true or false. A value of false logs both read and write events.

            • eventSource - For filtering management events only. This can be set only to NotEquals kms.amazonaws.com.

            • eventName - Can use any operator. You can use it to filter in or filter out any data event logged to CloudTrail, such as PutBucket. You can have multiple values for this field, separated by commas.

            • eventCategory - This is required. It must be set to Equals, and the value must be Management or Data.

            • resources.type - This field is required. resources.type can only use the Equals operator, and the value can be one of the following: AWS::S3::Object, AWS::Lambda::Function, AWS::DynamoDB::Table, AWS::S3Outposts::Object, AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node, or AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint. You can have only one resources.type field per selector. To log data events on more than one resource type, add another selector.

            • resources.ARN - You can use any operator with resources.ARN, but if you use Equals or NotEquals, the value must exactly match the ARN of a valid resource of the type you've specified in the template as the value of resources.type. For example, if resources.type equals AWS::S3::Object, the ARN must be in one of the following formats. To log all data events for all objects in a specific S3 bucket, use the StartsWith operator, and include only the bucket ARN as the matching value.

              The trailing slash is intentional; do not exclude it.

              • arn:partition:s3:::bucket_name/

              • arn:partition:s3:::bucket_name/object_or_file_name/

              When resources.type equals AWS::Lambda::Function, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

              • arn:partition:lambda:region:account_ID:function:function_name

              When resources.type equals AWS::DynamoDB::Table, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

              • arn:partition:dynamodb:region:account_ID:table:table_name

              When resources.type equals AWS::S3Outposts::Object, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

              • arn:partition:s3-outposts:region:>account_ID:object_path

              When resources.type equals AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

              • arn:partition:managedblockchain:region:account_ID:nodes/node_ID

              When resources.type equals AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint, and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals, the ARN must be in the following format:

              • arn:partition:s3-object-lambda:region:account_ID:accesspoint/access_point_name

          • Equals — (Array<String>)

            An operator that includes events that match the exact value of the event record field specified as the value of Field. This is the only valid operator that you can use with the readOnly, eventCategory, and resources.type fields.

          • StartsWith — (Array<String>)

            An operator that includes events that match the first few characters of the event record field specified as the value of Field.

          • EndsWith — (Array<String>)

          • NotEquals — (Array<String>)

            An operator that excludes events that match the exact value of the event record field specified as the value of Field.

          • NotStartsWith — (Array<String>)

            An operator that excludes events that match the first few characters of the event record field specified as the value of Field.

          • NotEndsWith — (Array<String>)

            An operator that excludes events that match the last few characters of the event record field specified as the value of Field.

updateTrail(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Updates the settings that specify delivery of log files. Changes to a trail do not require stopping the CloudTrail service. Use this action to designate an existing bucket for log delivery. If the existing bucket has previously been a target for CloudTrail log files, an IAM policy exists for the bucket. UpdateTrail must be called from the region in which the trail was created; otherwise, an InvalidHomeRegionException is thrown.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the updateTrail operation

var params = {

});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {}) —
    • Name — (String)

      Specifies the name of the trail or trail ARN. If Name is a trail name, the string must meet the following requirements:

      • Contain only ASCII letters (a-z, A-Z), numbers (0-9), periods (.), underscores (_), or dashes (-)

      • Start with a letter or number, and end with a letter or number

      • Be between 3 and 128 characters

      • Have no adjacent periods, underscores or dashes. Names like my-_namespace and my--namespace are invalid.

      • Not be in IP address format (for example, 192.168.5.4)

      If Name is a trail ARN, it must be in the format:

      arn:aws:cloudtrail:us-east-2:123456789012:trail/MyTrail

    • S3BucketName — (String)

      Specifies the name of the Amazon S3 bucket designated for publishing log files. See Amazon S3 Bucket Naming Requirements.

    • S3KeyPrefix — (String)

      Specifies the Amazon S3 key prefix that comes after the name of the bucket you have designated for log file delivery. For more information, see Finding Your CloudTrail Log Files. The maximum length is 200 characters.

    • SnsTopicName — (String)

      Specifies the name of the Amazon SNS topic defined for notification of log file delivery. The maximum length is 256 characters.

    • IncludeGlobalServiceEvents — (Boolean)

      Specifies whether the trail is publishing events from global services such as IAM to the log files.

    • IsMultiRegionTrail — (Boolean)

      Specifies whether the trail applies only to the current region or to all regions. The default is false. If the trail exists only in the current region and this value is set to true, shadow trails (replications of the trail) will be created in the other regions. If the trail exists in all regions and this value is set to false, the trail will remain in the region where it was created, and its shadow trails in other regions will be deleted. As a best practice, consider using trails that log events in all regions.

    • EnableLogFileValidation — (Boolean)

      Specifies whether log file validation is enabled. The default is false.

      Note: When you disable log file integrity validation, the chain of digest files is broken after one hour. CloudTrail will not create digest files for log files that were delivered during a period in which log file integrity validation was disabled. For example, if you enable log file integrity validation at noon on January 1, disable it at noon on January 2, and re-enable it at noon on January 10, digest files will not be created for the log files delivered from noon on January 2 to noon on January 10. The same applies whenever you stop CloudTrail logging or delete a trail.
    • CloudWatchLogsLogGroupArn — (String)

      Specifies a log group name using an Amazon Resource Name (ARN), a unique identifier that represents the log group to which CloudTrail logs will be delivered. Not required unless you specify CloudWatchLogsRoleArn.

      • arn:aws:kms:us-east-2:123456789012:alias/MyAliasName

      • arn:aws:kms:us-east-2:123456789012:key/12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012

      • 12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012

    • IsOrganizationTrail — (Boolean)

      Specifies whether the trail is applied to all accounts in an organization in AWS Organizations, or only for the current AWS account. The default is false, and cannot be true unless the call is made on behalf of an AWS account that is the master account for an organization in AWS Organizations. If the trail is not an organization trail and this is set to true, the trail will be created in all AWS accounts that belong to the organization. If the trail is an organization trail and this is set to false, the trail will remain in the current AWS account but be deleted from all member accounts in the organization.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.
