This is the new *CloudFormation Template Reference Guide*. Please update your bookmarks and links. For help getting started with CloudFormation, see the [AWS CloudFormation User Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/Welcome.html). # CloudFormation resource provider schemas In addition to the resource specification, CloudFormation makes available the resource provider schemas for the AWS resources by Region. Each resource provider schema is a JSON-formatted text file that defines the properties and attributes of a specific resource. For each Region, CloudFormation offers a zip file containing the individual schema files for each resource available in that Region. To download the resource provider schemas for a specific Region, see the following table. You can also view a resource's provider schema using the [CloudFormation registry](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/registry.html). Resource availability may vary by Region. To check the availability of a resource in a given Region, refer to the resource provider schemas for that Region. To learn more about resource provider schemas, including schema format and definitions, see [Resource provider schema](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloudformation-cli/latest/userguide/resource-type-schema.html) in the *CloudFormation Command Line Interface User Guide*.
