aws waf create-regex-pattern-set

This is AWS WAF Classic documentation. For more information, see AWS WAF Classic in the developer guide. For the latest version of AWS WAF, use the AWS WAFV2 API and see the AWS WAF Developer Guide. With the latest version, AWS WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use. Creates a RegexPatternSet. You then use UpdateRegexPatternSet to specify the regular expression (regex) pattern that you want AWS WAF to search for, such as B[a@]dB[o0]t. You can then configure AWS WAF to reject those requests. To create and configure a RegexPatternSet, perform the following steps: Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of a CreateRegexPatternSet request. Submit a CreateRegexPatternSet request. Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of an UpdateRegexPatternSet request. Submit an UpdateRegexPatternSet request to specify the string that you want AWS WAF to watch for. For more information about how to use the AWS WAF API to allow or block HTTP requests, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide

Options

NameDescription
--name <string>A friendly name or description of the RegexPatternSet. You can't change Name after you create a RegexPatternSet
--change-token <string>The value returned by the most recent call to GetChangeToken
--cli-input-json <string>Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by ``--generate-cli-skeleton``. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally
--generate-cli-skeleton <string>Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value ``input``, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for ``--cli-input-json``. If provided with the value ``output``, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command
