# AWS::ApplicationAutoScaling::ScalableTarget SuspendedState
<a name="aws-properties-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget-suspendedstate"></a>

`SuspendedState` is a property of the [AWS::ApplicationAutoScaling::ScalableTarget](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget.html) resource that specifies whether the scaling activities for a scalable target are in a suspended state.

For more information, see [Suspending and resuming scaling](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/autoscaling/application/userguide/application-auto-scaling-suspend-resume-scaling.html) in the *Application Auto Scaling User Guide*.

## Syntax
<a name="aws-properties-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget-suspendedstate-syntax"></a>

To declare this entity in your Amazon CloudFormation template, use the following syntax:

### JSON
<a name="aws-properties-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget-suspendedstate-syntax.json"></a>

```
{
  "[DynamicScalingInSuspended](#cfn-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget-suspendedstate-dynamicscalinginsuspended)" : Boolean,
  "[DynamicScalingOutSuspended](#cfn-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget-suspendedstate-dynamicscalingoutsuspended)" : Boolean,
  "[ScheduledScalingSuspended](#cfn-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget-suspendedstate-scheduledscalingsuspended)" : Boolean
}
```

### YAML
<a name="aws-properties-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget-suspendedstate-syntax.yaml"></a>

```
  [DynamicScalingInSuspended](#cfn-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget-suspendedstate-dynamicscalinginsuspended): Boolean

```

## Properties
<a name="aws-properties-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget-suspendedstate-properties"></a>

`DynamicScalingInSuspended`  <a name="cfn-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget-suspendedstate-dynamicscalinginsuspended"></a>
Whether scale in by a target tracking scaling policy or a step scaling policy is suspended. Set the value to `true` if you don't want Application Auto Scaling to remove capacity when a scaling policy is triggered. The default is `false`.   
*Required*: No  
*Type*: Boolean  
*Update requires*: [No interruption](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/using-cfn-updating-stacks-update-behaviors.html#update-no-interrupt)

`DynamicScalingOutSuspended`  <a name="cfn-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget-suspendedstate-dynamicscalingoutsuspended"></a>
Whether scale out by a target tracking scaling policy or a step scaling policy is suspended. Set the value to `true` if you don't want Application Auto Scaling to add capacity when a scaling policy is triggered. The default is `false`.   
*Required*: No  
*Type*: Boolean  
*Update requires*: [No interruption](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/using-cfn-updating-stacks-update-behaviors.html#update-no-interrupt)

`ScheduledScalingSuspended`  <a name="cfn-applicationautoscaling-scalabletarget-suspendedstate-scheduledscalingsuspended"></a>
Whether scheduled scaling is suspended. Set the value to `true` if you don't want Application Auto Scaling to add or remove capacity by initiating scheduled actions. The default is `false`.   
*Required*: No  
*Type*: Boolean  
*Update requires*: [No interruption](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/using-cfn-updating-stacks-update-behaviors.html#update-no-interrupt)
