# PutLoggingConfiguration
**Note**
Amazon WAF Classic support will end on September 30, 2025.
This is ** Amazon WAF Classic** documentation. For more information, see [Amazon WAF Classic](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/waf/latest/developerguide/classic-waf-chapter.html) in the developer guide.
**For the latest version of Amazon WAF **, use the Amazon WAFV2 API and see the [Amazon WAF Developer Guide](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/waf/latest/developerguide/waf-chapter.html). With the latest version, Amazon WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use.
Associates a [LoggingConfiguration](API_wafRegional_LoggingConfiguration.md) with a specified web ACL.
You can access information about all traffic that Amazon WAF inspects using the following steps:
1. Create an Amazon Data Firehose.
Create the data firehose with a PUT source and in the region that you are operating. However, if you are capturing logs for Amazon CloudFront, always create the firehose in US East (N. Virginia).
Give the data firehose a name that starts with the prefix `aws-waf-logs-`. For example, `aws-waf-logs-us-east-2-analytics`.
**Note**
Do not create the data firehose using a `Kinesis stream` as your source.
1. Associate that firehose to your web ACL using a `PutLoggingConfiguration` request.
When you successfully enable logging using a `PutLoggingConfiguration` request, Amazon WAF will create a service linked role with the necessary permissions to write logs to the Amazon Data Firehose. For more information, see [Logging Web ACL Traffic Information](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/waf/latest/developerguide/logging.html) in the * Amazon WAF Developer Guide*.
## Request Syntax
```
{
"LoggingConfiguration": {
"LogDestinationConfigs": [ "string" ],

{
"Data": "string",
"Type": "string"
}
],
"ResourceArn": "string"
}
}
```
## Request Parameters
For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see [Common Parameters](CommonParameters.md).
The request accepts the following data in JSON format.
** [LoggingConfiguration](#API_wafRegional_PutLoggingConfiguration_RequestSyntax) **
The Amazon Data Firehose that contains the inspected traffic information, the redacted fields details, and the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the web ACL to monitor.
When specifying `Type` in `RedactedFields`, you must use one of the following values: `URI`, `QUERY_STRING`, `HEADER`, or `METHOD`.
Type: [LoggingConfiguration](API_wafRegional_LoggingConfiguration.md) object
Required: Yes
## Response Syntax
```
{
"LoggingConfiguration": {
"LogDestinationConfigs": [ "string" ],
"RedactedFields": [
{
"Data": "string",
"Type": "string"
}
],
"ResourceArn": "string"
}
}
```
## Response Elements
If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.
The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.
** [LoggingConfiguration](#API_wafRegional_PutLoggingConfiguration_ResponseSyntax) **
The [LoggingConfiguration](API_wafRegional_LoggingConfiguration.md) that you submitted in the request.
Type: [LoggingConfiguration](API_wafRegional_LoggingConfiguration.md) object
## Errors
For information about the errors that are common to all actions, see [Common Error Types](CommonErrors.md).
** WAFInternalErrorException **
The operation failed because of a system problem, even though the request was valid. Retry your request.
HTTP Status Code: 500
** WAFNonexistentItemException **
The operation failed because the referenced object doesn't exist.
HTTP Status Code: 400
** WAFServiceLinkedRoleErrorException **
Amazon WAF is not able to access the service linked role. This can be caused by a previous `PutLoggingConfiguration` request, which can lock the service linked role for about 20 seconds. Please try your request again. The service linked role can also be locked by a previous `DeleteServiceLinkedRole` request, which can lock the role for 15 minutes or more. If you recently made a `DeleteServiceLinkedRole`, wait at least 15 minutes and try the request again. If you receive this same exception again, you will have to wait additional time until the role is unlocked.
HTTP Status Code: 400
** WAFStaleDataException **
The operation failed because you tried to create, update, or delete an object by using a change token that has already been used.
HTTP Status Code: 400
