Overview

Config rules evaluate the configuration settings of your Amazon Web Services resources. A rule can run when Config detects a configuration change to an Amazon Web Services resource or at a periodic frequency that you choose (for example, every 24 hours). There are two types of rules: *Config Managed Rules* and *Config Custom Rules*.

Config Managed Rules are predefined, customizable rules created by Config. For a list of managed rules, see [List of Config Managed Rules].

Config Custom Rules are rules that you create from scratch. There are two ways to create Config custom rules: with Lambda functions ([ Lambda Developer Guide]) and with Guard ([Guard GitHub Repository]), a policy-as-code language. Config custom rules created with Lambda are called *Config Custom Lambda Rules* and Config custom rules created with Guard are called *Config Custom Policy Rules*.

For more information about developing and using Config rules, see

Evaluating Resource with Config Rules][4

in the *Config Developer

Guide*.

<note markdown=“1”> You can use the Amazon Web Services CLI and Amazon Web Services SDKs if you want to create a rule that triggers evaluations for your resources when Config delivers the configuration snapshot. For more information, see ConfigSnapshotDeliveryProperties.

end

#config_rule_state ⇒ String

Indicates whether the Config rule is active or is currently being deleted by Config. It can also indicate the evaluation status for the Config rule.

Config sets the state of the rule to ‘EVALUATING` temporarily after you use the `StartConfigRulesEvaluation` request to evaluate your resources against the Config rule.

Config sets the state of the rule to ‘DELETING_RESULTS` temporarily after you use the `DeleteEvaluationResults` request to delete the current evaluation results for the Config rule.

Config temporarily sets the state of a rule to ‘DELETING` after you use the `DeleteConfigRule` request to delete the rule. After Config deletes the rule, the rule and all of its evaluations are erased and are no longer available.

Returns:

  • (String)

#maximum_execution_frequency ⇒ String

The maximum frequency with which Config runs evaluations for a rule. You can specify a value for ‘MaximumExecutionFrequency` when:

  • This is for an Config managed rule that is triggered at a periodic frequency.

  • Your custom rule is triggered when Config delivers the configuration snapshot. For more information, see ConfigSnapshotDeliveryProperties.

<note markdown=“1”> By default, rules with a periodic trigger are evaluated every 24 hours. To change the frequency, specify a valid value for the ‘MaximumExecutionFrequency` parameter.

end

#scope ⇒ Types::Scope

Defines which resources can trigger an evaluation for the rule. The scope can include one or more resource types, a combination of one resource type and one resource ID, or a combination of a tag key and value. Specify a scope to constrain the resources that can trigger an evaluation for the rule. If you do not specify a scope, evaluations are triggered when any resource in the recording group changes.

<note markdown=“1”> The scope can be empty.
