AccountGateResult - Amazon CloudFormation
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

AccountGateResult

Structure that contains the results of the account gate function which CloudFormation invokes, if present, before proceeding with a StackSet operation in an account and Region.

For each account and Region, CloudFormation lets you specify a Lambda function that encapsulates any requirements that must be met before CloudFormation can proceed with a StackSet operation in that account and Region. CloudFormation invokes the function each time a StackSet operation is requested for that account and Region; if the function returns FAILED, CloudFormation cancels the operation in that account and Region, and sets the StackSet operation result status for that account and Region to FAILED.

For more information, see Prevent failed StackSets deployments using target account gates in the Amazon CloudFormation User Guide.

Contents

Status

The status of the account gate function.

  • SUCCEEDED: The account gate function has determined that the account and Region passes any requirements for a StackSet operation to occur. CloudFormation proceeds with the stack operation in that account and Region.

  • FAILED: The account gate function has determined that the account and Region doesn't meet the requirements for a StackSet operation to occur. CloudFormation cancels the StackSet operation in that account and Region, and sets the StackSet operation result status for that account and Region to FAILED.

  • SKIPPED: CloudFormation has skipped calling the account gate function for this account and Region, for one of the following reasons:

    • An account gate function hasn't been specified for the account and Region. CloudFormation proceeds with the StackSet operation in this account and Region.

    • The AWSCloudFormationStackSetExecutionRole of the administration account lacks permissions to invoke the function. CloudFormation proceeds with the StackSet operation in this account and Region.

    • Either no action is necessary, or no action is possible, on the stack. CloudFormation skips the StackSet operation in this account and Region.
