LoggingConfig - Amazon CloudFront
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).

LoggingConfig

A complex type that specifies whether access logs are written for the distribution.

Note

If you already enabled standard logging (legacy) and you want to enable standard logging (v2) to send your access logs to Amazon S3, we recommend that you specify a different Amazon S3 bucket or use a separate path in the same bucket (for example, use a log prefix or partitioning). This helps you keep track of which log files are associated with which logging subscription and prevents log files from overwriting each other. For more information, see Standard logging (access logs) in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.

Contents

Bucket

The Amazon S3 bucket to store the access logs in, for example, amzn-s3-demo-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com.

Type: String

Required: No

Enabled

Specifies whether you want CloudFront to save access logs to an Amazon S3 bucket. If you don't want to enable logging when you create a distribution or if you want to disable logging for an existing distribution, specify false for Enabled, and specify empty Bucket and Prefix elements. If you specify false for Enabled but you specify values for Bucket and prefix, the values are automatically deleted.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

IncludeCookies

Specifies whether you want CloudFront to include cookies in access logs, specify true for IncludeCookies. If you choose to include cookies in logs, CloudFront logs all cookies regardless of how you configure the cache behaviors for this distribution. If you don't want to include cookies when you create a distribution or if you want to disable include cookies for an existing distribution, specify false for IncludeCookies.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

Prefix

An optional string that you want CloudFront to prefix to the access log filenames for this distribution, for example, myprefix/. If you want to enable logging, but you don't want to specify a prefix, you still must include an empty Prefix element in the Logging element.

Type: String

Required: No
