CreateEventSource - Amazon EventBridge Custom Event Bus

CreateEventSource

Creates an EventSource, which forwards events from an origin (an AWS service or another account) onto an event bus. The bus must be ACTIVE. Retries carrying the same ClientToken are idempotent.

Request Parameters

ClientToken

Unique, case-sensitive identifier that ensures the idempotency of the request. The SDK generates one automatically when the field is omitted.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 64.

Pattern: [\u0021-\u007E]+

Required: No

Configuration

Discriminated EventSource configuration. Exactly one variant must be set.

Type: EventSourceConfiguration object

Note: This object is a Union. Only one member of this object can be specified or returned.

Required: Yes

Description

Free-text description. Used by every resource type that has one: event buses, subscribers, and event sources.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 0. Maximum length of 512.

Pattern: [^\u0000-\u001F\u007F-\u009F\u2028\u2029]*(?![\s\S]).*

Required: No

EventBusArn

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) that uniquely identifies an event bus.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 1011.

Pattern: arn:aws(-[a-z0-9]+)*:events:[a-z][a-z0-9]*(-[a-z0-9]+)*:([0-9]{12}):event-busv2\/[A-Za-z0-9][\.\-_A-Za-z0-9]{0,255}\/[a-z0-9]{25}

Required: Yes

Name

EventSource name. First character alphanumeric; the rest may add '.', '-', '_'. Names may not begin with the reserved "aws." prefix. The grammar matches the ARN local-name segment in EventSourceArn (event-sourcev2/<type>/<name>/<id>), mirroring EventBusName, so a name the ARN cannot represent cannot be created.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 256.

Pattern: (?!aws\.)[A-Za-z0-9][\.\-_A-Za-z0-9]*

Required: Yes

Tags

Tags attached to a resource, as key-value pairs.

Type: String to string map

Map Entries: Minimum number of 0 items. Maximum number of 200 items.

Key Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 128.

Key Pattern: \S([\s\S]*\S)?(?![\s\S]).*

Value Length Constraints: Minimum length of 0. Maximum length of 256.

Value Pattern: (\S([\s\S]*\S)?)?(?![\s\S]).*

Required: No

Response Elements

The following elements are returned by the service.

CreationTime

The time the EventSource was created.

Type: Timestamp

EventBusArn

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) that uniquely identifies an event bus.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 1011.

Pattern: arn:aws(-[a-z0-9]+)*:events:[a-z][a-z0-9]*(-[a-z0-9]+)*:([0-9]{12}):event-busv2\/[A-Za-z0-9][\.\-_A-Za-z0-9]{0,255}\/[a-z0-9]{25}

EventSourceArn

EventSource ARN: event-sourcev2/<type>/<name>/<id>. The type segment is set by the service (aws.service for AWS service events, aws.partner for partner events) and is not part of the resource's name. The id segment is a 25-character identifier generated by the service.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 1011.

Pattern: arn:aws(-[a-z0-9]+)*:events:[a-z][a-z0-9]*(-[a-z0-9]+)*:([0-9]{12}):event-sourcev2\/(aws\.service|aws\.partner)\/[A-Za-z0-9][\.\-_A-Za-z0-9]{0,255}\/[a-z0-9]{25}

Name

EventSource name. First character alphanumeric; the rest may add '.', '-', '_'. Names may not begin with the reserved "aws." prefix. The grammar matches the ARN local-name segment in EventSourceArn (event-sourcev2/<type>/<name>/<id>), mirroring EventBusName, so a name the ARN cannot represent cannot be created.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 256.

Pattern: (?!aws\.)[A-Za-z0-9][\.\-_A-Za-z0-9]*

State

Lifecycle state of an EventSource. Revocation is reported by the Revoked flag.

Type: String

Valid Values: CREATING | ACTIVE | UPDATING | CREATE_FAILED | UPDATE_FAILED | DELETING | DELETE_FAILED

Errors

For information about the errors that are common to all actions, see Common Error Types.

AccessDeniedException

The caller does not have the permissions required to perform the operation. This error is also returned when the operation cannot use the AWS KMS key for the event bus.

HTTP Status Code: 403

ConcurrentModificationException

Another change to the resource is already in progress. Retry the request.

HTTP Status Code: 409

IdempotentParameterMismatchException

The request reuses the client token of an earlier request with different parameters. Use a new client token, or resend the earlier request unchanged.

HTTP Status Code: 409

InternalException

The request failed because of an internal service error. Retry the request.

HTTP Status Code: 500

InvalidInputException

A request parameter is missing or not valid.

HTTP Status Code: 400

InvalidStateException

The resource is not in a state that allows the operation. For example, an event bus that is still being created cannot accept events.

HTTP Status Code: 409

LimitExceededException

The request would exceed a service quota for the account.

HTTP Status Code: 400

ResourceAlreadyExistsException

A resource with the same name already exists.

HTTP Status Code: 409

ResourceNotFoundException

The resource does not exist.

HTTP Status Code: 404

ThrottlingException

The request was throttled because it exceeds a request rate limit. Retry the request with backoff.

HTTP Status Code: 429
