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.

AdvancedEventSelectors

The advanced event selectors to use to select the events for the data store. You can configure up to five advanced event selectors for each event data store.

For more information about how to use advanced event selectors to log CloudTrail events, see Log events by using advanced event selectors in the CloudTrail User Guide.

For more information about how to use advanced event selectors to include Amazon Config configuration items in your event data store, see Create an event data store for Amazon Config configuration items in the CloudTrail User Guide.

For more information about how to use advanced event selectors to include events outside of Amazon events in your event data store, see Create an integration to log events from outside Amazon in the CloudTrail User Guide.

Type: Array of AdvancedEventSelector objects

Required: No

BillingMode

The billing mode for the event data store determines the cost for ingesting events and the default and maximum retention period for the event data store.

The following are the possible values:

EXTENDABLE_RETENTION_PRICING - This billing mode is generally recommended if you want a flexible retention period of up to 3653 days (about 10 years). The default retention period for this billing mode is 366 days.
FIXED_RETENTION_PRICING - This billing mode is recommended if you expect to ingest more than 25 TB of event data per month and need a retention period of up to 2557 days (about 7 years). The default retention period for this billing mode is 2557 days.

The default value is EXTENDABLE_RETENTION_PRICING.

For more information about CloudTrail pricing, see Amazon CloudTrail Pricing and Managing CloudTrail Lake costs.

Type: String

Valid Values: EXTENDABLE_RETENTION_PRICING | FIXED_RETENTION_PRICING

Required: No

KmsKeyId

Specifies the Amazon KMS key ID to use to encrypt the events delivered by CloudTrail. The value can be an alias name prefixed by alias/, a fully specified ARN to an alias, a fully specified ARN to a key, or a globally unique identifier.

Important

Disabling or deleting the KMS key, or removing CloudTrail permissions on the key, prevents CloudTrail from logging events to the event data store, and prevents users from querying the data in the event data store that was encrypted with the key. After you associate an event data store with a KMS key, the KMS key cannot be removed or changed. Before you disable or delete a KMS key that you are using with an event data store, delete or back up your event data store.

CloudTrail also supports Amazon KMS multi-Region keys. For more information about multi-Region keys, see Using multi-Region keys in the Amazon Key Management Service Developer Guide.

Examples:

alias/MyAliasName
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

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 350.

Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9._/\-:]+$

Required: No

MultiRegionEnabled

Specifies whether the event data store includes events from all Regions, or only from the Region in which the event data store is created.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

Name

The name of the event data store.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 3. Maximum length of 128.

Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9._\-]+$

Required: Yes

OrganizationEnabled

Specifies whether an event data store collects events logged for an organization in Amazon Organizations.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

RetentionPeriod

The retention period of the event data store, in days. If BillingMode is set to EXTENDABLE_RETENTION_PRICING, you can set a retention period of up to 3653 days, the equivalent of 10 years. If BillingMode is set to FIXED_RETENTION_PRICING, you can set a retention period of up to 2557 days, the equivalent of seven years.

CloudTrail Lake determines whether to retain an event by checking if the eventTime of the event is within the specified retention period. For example, if you set a retention period of 90 days, CloudTrail will remove events when the eventTime is older than 90 days.

Note

If you plan to copy trail events to this event data store, we recommend that you consider both the age of the events that you want to copy as well as how long you want to keep the copied events in your event data store. For example, if you copy trail events that are 5 years old and specify a retention period of 7 years, the event data store will retain those events for two years.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 7. Maximum value of 3653.

Required: No

StartIngestion

Specifies whether the event data store should start ingesting live events. The default is true.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

TagsList

A list of tags.

Type: Array of Tag objects

Array Members: Maximum number of 200 items.

Required: No

TerminationProtectionEnabled

Specifies whether termination protection is enabled for the event data store. If termination protection is enabled, you cannot delete the event data store until termination protection is disabled.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

For more information, see How to enable or disable trusted access in the Amazon Organizations User Guide and Prepare For Creating a Trail For Your Organization in the Amazon CloudTrail User Guide.

HTTP Status Code: 400

ConflictException

This exception is thrown when the specified resource is not ready for an operation. This can occur when you try to run an operation on a resource before CloudTrail has time to fully load the resource, or because another operation is modifying the resource. If this exception occurs, wait a few minutes, and then try the operation again.

HTTP Status Code: 400

EventDataStoreAlreadyExistsException

An event data store with that name already exists.

HTTP Status Code: 400

EventDataStoreMaxLimitExceededException

Your account has used the maximum number of event data stores.

InvalidEventSelectorsException

This exception is thrown when the PutEventSelectors operation is called with a number of event selectors, advanced event selectors, or data resources that is not valid. The combination of event selectors or advanced event selectors and data resources is not valid. A trail can have up to 5 event selectors. If a trail uses advanced event selectors, a maximum of 500 total values for all conditions in all advanced event selectors is allowed. A trail is limited to 250 data resources. These data resources can be distributed across event selectors, but the overall total cannot exceed 250.

You can:

Specify a valid number of event selectors (1 to 5) for a trail.
Specify a valid number of data resources (1 to 250) for an event selector. The limit of number of resources on an individual event selector is configurable up to 250. However, this upper limit is allowed only if the total number of data resources does not exceed 250 across all event selectors for a trail.
Specify up to 500 values for all conditions in all advanced event selectors for a trail.
Specify a valid value for a parameter. For example, specifying the ReadWriteType parameter with a value of read-only is not valid.
