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).

CreateSqlInjectionMatchSet

Note

This is Amazon WAF Classic documentation. For more information, see Amazon WAF Classic in the developer guide.

For the latest version of Amazon WAF , use the Amazon WAFV2 API and see the Amazon WAF Developer Guide. With the latest version, Amazon WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use.

Creates a SqlInjectionMatchSet, which you use to allow, block, or count requests that contain snippets of SQL code in a specified part of web requests. Amazon WAF searches for character sequences that are likely to be malicious strings.

To create and configure a SqlInjectionMatchSet, perform the following steps:

  1. Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of a CreateSqlInjectionMatchSet request.

  2. Submit a CreateSqlInjectionMatchSet request.

  3. Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of an UpdateSqlInjectionMatchSet request.

  4. Submit an UpdateSqlInjectionMatchSet request to specify the parts of web requests in which you want to allow, block, or count malicious SQL code.

For more information about how to use the Amazon WAF API to allow or block HTTP requests, see the Amazon WAF Developer Guide.
