BackupSelection

Used to specify a set of resources to a backup plan.

We recommend that you specify conditions, tags, or resources to include or exclude. Otherwise, Backup attempts to select all supported and opted-in storage resources, which could have unintended cost implications.

For more information, see Assigning resources programmatically.

IamRoleArn

The ARN of the IAM role that Amazon Backup uses to authenticate when backing up the target resource; for example, arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/S3Access.

Type: String

Required: Yes

SelectionName

The display name of a resource selection document. Must contain 1 to 50 alphanumeric or '-_.' characters.

Type: String

Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9\-\_\.]{1,50}$

Required: Yes

Conditions

The conditions that you define to assign resources to your backup plans using tags. For example, "StringEquals": { "ConditionKey": "aws:ResourceTag/backup", "ConditionValue": "daily" }.

Conditions supports StringEquals, StringLike, StringNotEquals, and StringNotLike. Condition operators are case sensitive.

If you specify multiple conditions, the resources much match all conditions (AND logic).

Type: Conditions object

Required: No

ListOfTags

We recommend that you use the Conditions parameter instead of this parameter.

The conditions that you define to assign resources to your backup plans using tags. For example, "StringEquals": { "ConditionKey": "backup", "ConditionValue": "daily"}.

ListOfTags supports only StringEquals. Condition operators are case sensitive.

If you specify multiple conditions, the resources much match any of the conditions (OR logic).

Type: Array of Condition objects

Required: No

NotResources

The Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) of the resources to exclude from a backup plan. The maximum number of ARNs is 500 without wildcards, or 30 ARNs with wildcards.

If you need to exclude many resources from a backup plan, consider a different resource selection strategy, such as assigning only one or a few resource types or refining your resource selection using tags.

Type: Array of strings

Required: No

Resources

The Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) of the resources to assign to a backup plan. The maximum number of ARNs is 500 without wildcards, or 30 ARNs with wildcards.

If you need to assign many resources to a backup plan, consider a different resource selection strategy, such as assigning all resources of a resource type or refining your resource selection using tags.

If you specify multiple ARNs, the resources much match any of the ARNs (OR logic).

Type: Array of strings

Required: No
