# ListFirewallRuleTypes
<a name="API_route53resolver_ListFirewallRuleTypes"></a>

Retrieves the rule-type variants that can be used in the `FirewallRuleType` field of [CreateFirewallRule](API_route53resolver_CreateFirewallRule.md) and [UpdateFirewallRule](API_route53resolver_UpdateFirewallRule.md). Each returned [FirewallRuleTypeDefinition](API_route53resolver_FirewallRuleTypeDefinition.md) identifies one variant \+ value combination — for example, `FirewallAdvancedContentCategory` \+ `VIOLENCE_AND_HATE_SPEECH`, or `PartnerThreatProtection` \+ a partner-managed feed.

The supported `RuleType` filter values are `FirewallAdvancedContentCategory`, `FirewallAdvancedThreatCategory`, `DnsThreatProtection`, and `PartnerThreatProtection`. When a returned definition's variant requires an external subscription (currently only `PartnerThreatProtection`), the response also includes a [SubscriptionInfo](API_route53resolver_SubscriptionInfo.md) identifying the AWS Marketplace product that backs it; absence of `SubscriptionInfo` means the variant is fully managed by AWS and requires no separate subscription.

## Request Syntax

}
```

## Request Parameters
<a name="API_route53resolver_ListFirewallRuleTypes_RequestParameters"></a>

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see [Common Parameters](CommonParameters.md).

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

 ** [MaxResults](#API_route53resolver_ListFirewallRuleTypes_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="Route53Resolver-route53resolver_ListFirewallRuleTypes-request-MaxResults"></a>
The maximum number of objects that you want Resolver to return for this request. If more objects are available, in the response, Resolver provides a `NextToken` value that you can use in a subsequent call to get the next batch of objects.  
Type: Integer  
Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 100.  
Required: No

 ** [NextToken](#API_route53resolver_ListFirewallRuleTypes_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="Route53Resolver-route53resolver_ListFirewallRuleTypes-request-NextToken"></a>
For the first call to this list request, omit this value. When you request a list of objects, Resolver returns at most the number of objects specified in `MaxResults`. If more objects are available for retrieval, Resolver provides a `NextToken` value in the response. To retrieve the next batch of objects, use the token that was returned for the prior request in your next request.  
Type: String  
Required: No

 ** [RuleType](#API_route53resolver_ListFirewallRuleTypes_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="Route53Resolver-route53resolver_ListFirewallRuleTypes-request-RuleType"></a>
An optional filter that restricts the response to a single [FirewallRuleType](API_route53resolver_FirewallRuleType.md) variant. Supported values: `FirewallAdvancedContentCategory`, `FirewallAdvancedThreatCategory`, `DnsThreatProtection`, and `PartnerThreatProtection`. If omitted, definitions across all variants are returned.  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Maximum length of 128.  
Required: No

 ** [NextToken](#API_route53resolver_ListFirewallRuleTypes_ResponseSyntax) **   <a name="Route53Resolver-route53resolver_ListFirewallRuleTypes-response-NextToken"></a>
If objects are still available for retrieval, Resolver returns this token in the response. To retrieve the next batch of objects, provide this token in your next request.  
Type: String
