(constructor)

[configuration]

Constructs a new instance of the <code>WAFV2Client</code> class

config

The resolved configuration of WAFV2Client class. This is resolved and normalized from the [constructor configuration interface](@aws-sdk/client-wafv2!WAFV2ClientConfig:Interface).

destroy

Destroy underlying resources, like sockets. It's usually not necessary to do this. However in Node.js, it's best to explicitly shut down the client's agent when it is no longer needed. Otherwise, sockets might stay open for quite a long time before the server terminates them.

WAFV2Client

<fullname>WAF</fullname> <note> This is the latest version of the WAF API, released in November, 2019. The names of the entities that you use to access this API, like endpoints and namespaces, all have the versioning information added, like "V2" or "v2", to distinguish from the prior version. We recommend migrating your resources to this version, because it has a number of significant improvements. If you used WAF prior to this release, you can't use this WAFV2 API to access any WAF resources that you created before. WAF Classic support will end on September 30, 2025. For information about WAF, including how to migrate your WAF Classic resources to this version, see the <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/waf-chapter.html">WAF Developer Guide</a>. </note> WAF is a web application firewall that lets you monitor the HTTP and HTTPS requests that are forwarded to an Amazon CloudFront distribution, Amazon API Gateway REST API, Application Load Balancer, AppSync GraphQL API, Amazon Cognito user pool, App Runner service, or Amazon Web Services Verified Access instance. WAF also lets you control access to your content, to protect the Amazon Web Services resource that WAF is monitoring. Based on conditions that you specify, such as the IP addresses that requests originate from or the values of query strings, the protected resource responds to requests with either the requested content, an HTTP 403 status code (Forbidden), or with a custom response. This API guide is for developers who need detailed information about WAF API actions, data types, and errors. For detailed information about WAF features and guidance for configuring and using WAF, see the <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/what-is-aws-waf.html">WAF Developer Guide</a>. You can make calls using the endpoints listed in <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/waf.html">WAF endpoints and quotas</a>. <ul> <li> For regional applications, you can use any of the endpoints in the list. A regional application can be an Application Load Balancer (ALB), an Amazon API Gateway REST API, an AppSync GraphQL API, an Amazon Cognito user pool, an App Runner service, or an Amazon Web Services Verified Access instance. </li> <li> For Amazon CloudFront applications, you must use the API endpoint listed for US East (N. Virginia): us-east-1. </li> </ul> Alternatively, you can use one of the Amazon Web Services SDKs to access an API that's tailored to the programming language or platform that you're using. For more information, see <a href="http://aws.amazon.com/tools/#SDKs">Amazon Web Services SDKs</a>.

AssociateWebACLCommand

Associates a web ACL with a regional application resource, to protect the resource. A regional application can be an Application Load Balancer (ALB), an Amazon API Gateway REST API, an AppSync GraphQL API, an Amazon Cognito user pool, an App Runner service, or an Amazon Web Services Verified Access instance. For Amazon CloudFront, don't use this call. Instead, use your CloudFront distribution configuration. To associate a web ACL, in the CloudFront call <code>UpdateDistribution</code>, set the web ACL ID to the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the web ACL. For information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/latest/APIReference/API_UpdateDistribution.html">UpdateDistribution</a> in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide. Required permissions for customer-managed IAM policies This call requires permissions that are specific to the protected resource type. For details, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/security_iam_service-with-iam.html#security_iam_action-AssociateWebACL">Permissions for AssociateWebACL</a> in the WAF Developer Guide. Temporary inconsistencies during updates When you create or change a web ACL or other WAF resources, the changes take a small amount of time to propagate to all areas where the resources are stored. The propagation time can be from a few seconds to a number of minutes. The following are examples of the temporary inconsistencies that you might notice during change propagation: <ul> <li> After you create a web ACL, if you try to associate it with a resource, you might get an exception indicating that the web ACL is unavailable. </li> <li> After you add a rule group to a web ACL, the new rule group rules might be in effect in one area where the web ACL is used and not in another. </li> <li> After you change a rule action setting, you might see the old action in some places and the new action in others. </li> <li> After you add an IP address to an IP set that is in use in a blocking rule, the new address might be blocked in one area while still allowed in another. </li> </ul>

CheckCapacityCommand

Returns the web ACL capacity unit (WCU) requirements for a specified scope and set of rules. You can use this to check the capacity requirements for the rules you want to use in a RuleGroup or WebACL. WAF uses WCUs to calculate and control the operating resources that are used to run your rules, rule groups, and web ACLs. WAF calculates capacity differently for each rule type, to reflect the relative cost of each rule. Simple rules that cost little to run use fewer WCUs than more complex rules that use more processing power. Rule group capacity is fixed at creation, which helps users plan their web ACL WCU usage when they use a rule group. For more information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/aws-waf-capacity-units.html">WAF web ACL capacity units (WCU)</a> in the WAF Developer Guide.

CreateAPIKeyCommand

Creates an API key that contains a set of token domains. API keys are required for the integration of the CAPTCHA API in your JavaScript client applications. The API lets you customize the placement and characteristics of the CAPTCHA puzzle for your end users. For more information about the CAPTCHA JavaScript integration, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/waf-application-integration.html">WAF client application integration</a> in the WAF Developer Guide. You can use a single key for up to 5 domains. After you generate a key, you can copy it for use in your JavaScript integration.

CreateIPSetCommand

Creates an IPSet, which you use to identify web requests that originate from specific IP addresses or ranges of IP addresses. For example, if you're receiving a lot of requests from a ranges of IP addresses, you can configure WAF to block them using an IPSet that lists those IP addresses.

CreateRegexPatternSetCommand

Creates a RegexPatternSet, which you reference in a RegexPatternSetReferenceStatement, to have WAF inspect a web request component for the specified patterns.

CreateRuleGroupCommand

Creates a RuleGroup per the specifications provided. A rule group defines a collection of rules to inspect and control web requests that you can use in a WebACL. When you create a rule group, you define an immutable capacity limit. If you update a rule group, you must stay within the capacity. This allows others to reuse the rule group with confidence in its capacity requirements.

CreateWebACLCommand

Creates a WebACL per the specifications provided. A web ACL defines a collection of rules to use to inspect and control web requests. Each rule has a statement that defines what to look for in web requests and an action that WAF applies to requests that match the statement. In the web ACL, you assign a default action to take (allow, block) for any request that does not match any of the rules. The rules in a web ACL can be a combination of the types Rule, RuleGroup, and managed rule group. You can associate a web ACL with one or more Amazon Web Services resources to protect. The resources can be an Amazon CloudFront distribution, an Amazon API Gateway REST API, an Application Load Balancer, an AppSync GraphQL API, an Amazon Cognito user pool, an App Runner service, or an Amazon Web Services Verified Access instance.

DeleteAPIKeyCommand

Deletes the specified API key. After you delete a key, it can take up to 24 hours for WAF to disallow use of the key in all regions.

GetPermissionPolicyCommand

Returns the IAM policy that is attached to the specified rule group. You must be the owner of the rule group to perform this operation.

GetRateBasedStatementManagedKeysCommand

Retrieves the IP addresses that are currently blocked by a rate-based rule instance. This is only available for rate-based rules that aggregate solely on the IP address or on the forwarded IP address. The maximum number of addresses that can be blocked for a single rate-based rule instance is 10,000. If more than 10,000 addresses exceed the rate limit, those with the highest rates are blocked. For a rate-based rule that you've defined inside a rule group, provide the name of the rule group reference statement in your request, in addition to the rate-based rule name and the web ACL name. WAF monitors web requests and manages keys independently for each unique combination of web ACL, optional rule group, and rate-based rule. For example, if you define a rate-based rule inside a rule group, and then use the rule group in a web ACL, WAF monitors web requests and manages keys for that web ACL, rule group reference statement, and rate-based rule instance. If you use the same rule group in a second web ACL, WAF monitors web requests and manages keys for this second usage completely independent of your first.

GetRegexPatternSetCommand

Retrieves the specified RegexPatternSet.

GetRuleGroupCommand

Retrieves the specified RuleGroup.

GetSampledRequestsCommand

Gets detailed information about a specified number of requests--a sample--that WAF randomly selects from among the first 5,000 requests that your Amazon Web Services resource received during a time range that you choose. You can specify a sample size of up to 500 requests, and you can specify any time range in the previous three hours. <code>GetSampledRequests</code> returns a time range, which is usually the time range that you specified. However, if your resource (such as a CloudFront distribution) received 5,000 requests before the specified time range elapsed, <code>GetSampledRequests</code> returns an updated time range. This new time range indicates the actual period during which WAF selected the requests in the sample.

GetWebACLCommand

GetWebACLForResourceCommand

Retrieves the WebACL for the specified resource. This call uses <code>GetWebACL</code>, to verify that your account has permission to access the retrieved web ACL. If you get an error that indicates that your account isn't authorized to perform <code>wafv2:GetWebACL</code> on the resource, that error won't be included in your CloudTrail event history. For Amazon CloudFront, don't use this call. Instead, call the CloudFront action <code>GetDistributionConfig</code>.

For an Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group, WAF creates a resource policy on the log group. For an Amazon S3 bucket, WAF creates a bucket policy. For an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose, WAF creates a service-linked role. For additional information about web ACL logging, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/logging.html">Logging web ACL traffic information</a> in the WAF Developer Guide.

PutManagedRuleSetVersionsCommand

Defines the versions of your managed rule set that you are offering to the customers. Customers see your offerings as managed rule groups with versioning. <note> This is intended for use only by vendors of managed rule sets. Vendors are Amazon Web Services and Amazon Web Services Marketplace sellers. Vendors, you can use the managed rule set APIs to provide controlled rollout of your versioned managed rule group offerings for your customers. The APIs are <code>ListManagedRuleSets</code>, <code>GetManagedRuleSet</code>, <code>PutManagedRuleSetVersions</code>, and <code>UpdateManagedRuleSetVersionExpiryDate</code>. </note> Customers retrieve their managed rule group list by calling ListAvailableManagedRuleGroups. The name that you provide here for your managed rule set is the name the customer sees for the corresponding managed rule group. Customers can retrieve the available versions for a managed rule group by calling ListAvailableManagedRuleGroupVersions. You provide a rule group specification for each version. For each managed rule set, you must specify a version that you recommend using. To initiate the expiration of a managed rule group version, use UpdateManagedRuleSetVersionExpiryDate.

PutPermissionPolicyCommand

Use this to share a rule group with other accounts. This action attaches an IAM policy to the specified resource. You must be the owner of the rule group to perform this operation. This action is subject to the following restrictions: <ul> <li> You can attach only one policy with each <code>PutPermissionPolicy</code> request. </li> <li> The ARN in the request must be a valid WAF RuleGroup ARN and the rule group must exist in the same Region. </li> <li> The user making the request must be the owner of the rule group. </li> </ul> If a rule group has been shared with your account, you can access it through the call <code>GetRuleGroup</code>, and you can reference it in <code>CreateWebACL</code> and <code>UpdateWebACL</code>. Rule groups that are shared with you don't appear in your WAF console rule groups listing.

In the web ACL, you assign a default action to take (allow, block) for any request that does not match any of the rules. The rules in a web ACL can be a combination of the types Rule, RuleGroup, and managed rule group. You can associate a web ACL with one or more Amazon Web Services resources to protect. The resources can be an Amazon CloudFront distribution, an Amazon API Gateway REST API, an Application Load Balancer, an AppSync GraphQL API, an Amazon Cognito user pool, an App Runner service, or an Amazon Web Services Verified Access instance. Temporary inconsistencies during updates When you create or change a web ACL or other WAF resources, the changes take a small amount of time to propagate to all areas where the resources are stored. The propagation time can be from a few seconds to a number of minutes. The following are examples of the temporary inconsistencies that you might notice during change propagation: <ul> <li> After you create a web ACL, if you try to associate it with a resource, you might get an exception indicating that the web ACL is unavailable. </li> <li> After you add a rule group to a web ACL, the new rule group rules might be in effect in one area where the web ACL is used and not in another. </li> <li> After you change a rule action setting, you might see the old action in some places and the new action in others. </li> <li> After you add an IP address to an IP set that is in use in a blocking rule, the new address might be blocked in one area while still allowed in another. </li> </ul>
