Edit a trigger in a CodeDeploy deployment group

If your notification requirements change, you can modify your trigger rather than create a new one.

Modify a CodeDeploy trigger (CLI)

To use the AWS CLI to change trigger details for CodeDeploy events when you update a deployment group, create a JSON file to define changes to the deployment group's properties, and then run the update-deployment-group command with the --cli-input-json option.

The simplest way to create the JSON file is to run the get-deployment-group command to get the current deployment group details in JSON format, and then edit the required values in a plain-text editor.

  1. Run the following command, substituting the names of your application and deployment group for application and deployment-group:

    aws deploy get-deployment-group --application-name application --deployment-group-name deployment-group

  2. Copy the results of the command into a plain-text editor and then delete the following:

    • At the beginning of the output, delete { "deploymentGroupInfo":.

    • At the end of the output, delete }.

    • Delete the row containing deploymentGroupId.

    • Delete the row containing deploymentGroupName.

    The contents of your text file should now look similar to the following:

    {
    "applicationName": "TestApp-us-east-2",
    "deploymentConfigName": "CodeDeployDefault.OneAtATime",
    "autoScalingGroups": [],
    "ec2TagFilters": [
        {
            "Type": "KEY_AND_VALUE",
            "Value": "East-1-Instances",
            "Key": "Name"
        }
    ],
    "triggerConfigurations": [
        {
            "triggerEvents": [
                "DeploymentStart",
                "DeploymentSuccess",
                "DeploymentFailure",
                "DeploymentStop"
            ],
            "triggerTargetArn": "arn:aws:sns:us-east-2:111222333444:Trigger-group-us-east-2",
            "triggerName": "Trigger-group-us-east-2"
        }
    ],
    "serviceRoleArn": "arn:aws:iam::444455556666:role/AnyCompany-service-role",
    "onPremisesInstanceTagFilters": []
}

  3. Change any parameters, as necessary. For information about trigger configuration parameters, see TriggerConfig.

  4. Save your updates as a JSON file, and then run the update-deployment-group command using the --cli-input-json option. Be sure to include the --current-deployment-group-name option and substitute the name of your JSON file for filename:

    Important

    Be sure to include file:// before the file name. It is required in this command.

    aws deploy update-deployment-group --current-deployment-group-name deployment-group-name --cli-input-json file://filename.json

At the end of the creation process, you receive a test notification message that indicates both permissions and trigger details are set up correctly.
