Creates an account-level data protection policy, subscription filter policy, or field index policy that applies to all log groups or a subset of log groups in the account.
See https://www.paws-r-sdk.com/docs/cloudwatchlogs_put_account_policy/ for full documentation.
cloudwatchlogs_put_account_policy(
policyName,
policyDocument,
policyType,
scope = NULL,
selectionCriteria = NULL
)[required] A name for the policy. This must be unique within the account.
[required] Specify the policy, in JSON.
Data protection policy
A data protection policy must include two JSON blocks:
The first block must include both a DataIdentifer array and an
Operation property with an Audit action. The DataIdentifer
array lists the types of sensitive data that you want to mask. For
more information about the available options, see Types of data that you can mask.
The Operation property with an Audit action is required to find
the sensitive data terms. This Audit action must contain a
FindingsDestination object. You can optionally use that
FindingsDestination object to list one or more destinations to
send audit findings to. If you specify destinations such as log
groups, Firehose streams, and S3 buckets, they must already exist.
The second block must include both a DataIdentifer array and an
Operation property with an Deidentify action. The
DataIdentifer array must exactly match the DataIdentifer array
in the first block of the policy.
The Operation property with the Deidentify action is what
actually masks the data, and it must contain the "MaskConfig": {}
object. The "MaskConfig": {} object must be empty.
For an example data protection policy, see the Examples section on this page.
The contents of the two DataIdentifer arrays must match exactly.
In addition to the two JSON blocks, the policyDocument can also
include Name, Description, and Version fields. The Name is
different than the operation's policyName parameter, and is used as a
dimension when CloudWatch Logs reports audit findings metrics to
CloudWatch.
The JSON specified in policyDocument can be up to 30,720 characters
long.
Subscription filter policy
A subscription filter policy can include the following attributes in a JSON block:
DestinationArn The ARN of the destination to deliver log events to. Supported destinations are:
An Kinesis Data Streams data stream in the same account as the subscription policy, for same-account delivery.
An Firehose data stream in the same account as the subscription policy, for same-account delivery.
A Lambda function in the same account as the subscription policy, for same-account delivery.
A logical destination in a different account created with
put_destination, for
cross-account delivery. Kinesis Data Streams and Firehose are
supported as logical destinations.
RoleArn The ARN of an IAM role that grants CloudWatch Logs permissions to deliver ingested log events to the destination stream. You don't need to provide the ARN when you are working with a logical destination for cross-account delivery.
FilterPattern A filter pattern for subscribing to a filtered stream of log events.
Distribution The method used to distribute log data to the
destination. By default, log data is grouped by log stream, but the
grouping can be set to Random for a more even distribution. This
property is only applicable when the destination is an Kinesis Data
Streams data stream.
Transformer policy
A transformer policy must include one JSON block with the array of processors and their configurations. For more information about available processors, see Processors that you can use.
Field index policy
A field index filter policy can include the following attribute in a JSON block:
Fields The array of field indexes to create.
It must contain at least one field index.
The following is an example of an index policy document that creates two
indexes, RequestId and TransactionId.
"policyDocument": "{ \"Fields\": [ \"RequestId\", \"TransactionId\" ] }"
[required] The type of policy that you're creating or updating.
Currently the only valid value for this parameter is ALL, which
specifies that the data protection policy applies to all log groups in
the account. If you omit this parameter, the default of ALL is used.
Use this parameter to apply the new policy to a subset of log groups in the account.
Specifing selectionCriteria is valid only when you specify
SUBSCRIPTION_FILTER_POLICY, FIELD_INDEX_POLICY or
TRANSFORMER_POLICYfor policyType.
If policyType is SUBSCRIPTION_FILTER_POLICY, the only supported
selectionCriteria filter is LogGroupName NOT IN []
If policyType is FIELD_INDEX_POLICY or TRANSFORMER_POLICY, the
only supported selectionCriteria filter is LogGroupNamePrefix
The selectionCriteria string can be up to 25KB in length. The length
is determined by using its UTF-8 bytes.
Using the selectionCriteria parameter with
SUBSCRIPTION_FILTER_POLICY is useful to help prevent infinite loops.
