AWS::Config::DeliveryChannel ConfigSnapshotDeliveryProperties
Provides options for how often AWS Config delivers configuration snapshots to the Amazon S3 bucket in your delivery channel.
Note
If you want to create a rule that triggers evaluations for your resources when AWS Config delivers the configuration snapshot, see the following:
The frequency for a rule that triggers evaluations for your resources when AWS Config delivers the configuration snapshot is set by one of two values, depending on which is less frequent:
-
The value for the
deliveryFrequency
parameter within the delivery channel configuration, which sets how often AWS Config delivers configuration snapshots. This value also sets how often AWS Config invokes evaluations for AWS Config rules. -
The value for the
MaximumExecutionFrequency
parameter, which sets the maximum frequency with which AWS Config invokes evaluations for the rule. For more information, see ConfigRule.
If the deliveryFrequency
value is less frequent
than the MaximumExecutionFrequency
value for a rule,
AWS Config invokes the rule only as often as the
deliveryFrequency
value.
-
For example, you want your rule to run evaluations when AWS Config delivers the configuration snapshot.
-
You specify the
MaximumExecutionFrequency
value forSix_Hours
. -
You then specify the delivery channel
deliveryFrequency
value forTwentyFour_Hours
. -
Because the value for
deliveryFrequency
is less frequent thanMaximumExecutionFrequency
, AWS Config invokes evaluations for the rule every 24 hours.
You should set the MaximumExecutionFrequency
value
to be at least as frequent as the deliveryFrequency
value. You can view the deliveryFrequency
value by
using the DescribeDeliveryChannnels
action.
To update the deliveryFrequency
with which AWS Config delivers your configuration snapshots, use the PutDeliveryChannel
action.
