ResourceChange

The action that CloudFormation takes on the resource, such as Add (adds a new resource), Modify (changes a resource), Remove (deletes a resource), Import (imports a resource), or Dynamic (exact action for the resource can't be determined).

Type: String

Valid Values: Add | Modify | Remove | Import | Dynamic

Required: No

An encoded JSON string containing the context of the resource after the change is executed.

Type: String

Required: No

An encoded JSON string containing the context of the resource before the change is executed.

Type: String

The change set ID of the nested change set.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1.

Pattern: arn:[-a-zA-Z0-9:/]*

Required: No

For the Modify action, a list of ResourceChangeDetail structures that describes the changes that CloudFormation will make to the resource.

Type: Array of ResourceChangeDetail objects

Required: No

The resource's logical ID, which is defined in the stack's template.

Type: String

Required: No

Contains information about the module from which the resource was created, if the resource was created from a module included in the stack template.

Type: ModuleInfo object

Required: No

The resource's physical ID (resource name). Resources that you are adding don't have physical IDs because they haven't been created.

Type: String

Required: No

The action that will be taken on the physical resource when the change set is executed.

Type: String

Valid Values: Delete | Retain | Snapshot | ReplaceAndDelete | ReplaceAndRetain | ReplaceAndSnapshot

Required: No

For the Modify action, indicates whether CloudFormation will replace the resource by creating a new one and deleting the old one. This value depends on the value of the RequiresRecreation property in the ResourceTargetDefinition structure. For example, if the RequiresRecreation field is Always and the Evaluation field is Static, Replacement is True. If the RequiresRecreation field is Always and the Evaluation field is Dynamic, Replacement is Conditional.

If you have multiple changes with different RequiresRecreation values, the Replacement value depends on the change with the most impact. A RequiresRecreation value of Always has the most impact, followed by Conditional, and then Never.

Type: String

Valid Values: True | False | Conditional

Required: No

The type of CloudFormation resource, such as AWS::S3::Bucket.

Type: String
