Options

--task-id (string)

A unique identifier for the task. You can use this identifier to check the status of the task or to cancel it.

--target (structure)

Specifies the audit findings to which the mitigation actions are applied. You can apply them to a type of audit check, to all findings from an audit, or to a specific set of findings.

auditTaskId -> (string)

If the task will apply a mitigation action to findings from a specific audit, this value uniquely identifies the audit.

findingIds -> (list)

If the task will apply a mitigation action to one or more listed findings, this value uniquely identifies those findings.

(string)

auditCheckToReasonCodeFilter -> (map)

Specifies a filter in the form of an audit check and set of reason codes that identify the findings from the audit to which the audit mitigation actions task apply.

key -> (string)

An audit check name. Checks must be enabled for your account. (Use DescribeAccountAuditConfiguration to see the list of all checks, including those that are enabled or use UpdateAccountAuditConfiguration to select which checks are enabled.)

value -> (list)

(string)

Shorthand Syntax:

auditTaskId=string,findingIds=string,string,auditCheckToReasonCodeFilter={KeyName1=string,string,KeyName2=string,string}

JSON Syntax:

{
  "auditTaskId": "string",
  "findingIds": ["string", ...],
  "auditCheckToReasonCodeFilter": {"string": ["string", ...]
    ...}
}

--audit-check-to-actions-mapping (map)

For an audit check, specifies which mitigation actions to apply. Those actions must be defined in your Amazon Web Services accounts.

key -> (string)

An audit check name. Checks must be enabled for your account. (Use DescribeAccountAuditConfiguration to see the list of all checks, including those that are enabled or use UpdateAccountAuditConfiguration to select which checks are enabled.)

value -> (list)

(string)

Shorthand Syntax:

KeyName1=string,string,KeyName2=string,string

JSON Syntax:

{"string": ["string", ...]
  ...}

--client-request-token (string)

Each audit mitigation task must have a unique client request token. If you try to start a new task with the same token as a task that already exists, an exception occurs. If you omit this value, a unique client request token is generated automatically.

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command's default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on
  • off
  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal's quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To apply a mitigation action to the findings from an audit

The following start-audit-mitigation-actions-task example applies the ResetPolicyVersionAction action (which clears the policy) to the specified single finding.

aws iot start-audit-mitigation-actions-task \
    --task-id "myActionsTaskId" \
    --target "findingIds=[\"0edbaaec-2fe1-4cf5-abc9-d4c3e51f7464\"]" \
    --audit-check-to-actions-mapping "IOT_POLICY_OVERLY_PERMISSIVE_CHECK=[\"ResetPolicyVersionAction\"]" \
    --client-request-token "adhadhahda"

Output:

{
    "taskId": "myActionsTaskId"
}

For more information, see StartAuditMitigationActionsTask (Mitigation Action Commands) in the AWS IoT Developer Guide.

Output

taskId -> (string)

The unique identifier for the audit mitigation task. This matches the taskId that you specified in the request.
