CreateActivity

$result = $client->createActivity([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createActivityAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates an activity. An activity is a task that you write in any programming language and host on any machine that has access to Step Functions. Activities must poll Step Functions using the GetActivityTask API action and respond using SendTask* API actions. This function lets Step Functions know the existence of your activity and returns an identifier for use in a state machine and when polling from the activity.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createActivity([
    'encryptionConfiguration' => [
        'kmsDataKeyReusePeriodSeconds' => <integer>,
        'kmsKeyId' => '<string>',
        'type' => 'AWS_OWNED_KEY|CUSTOMER_MANAGED_KMS_KEY', // REQUIRED

CreateStateMachine

$result = $client->createStateMachine([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createStateMachineAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates a state machine. A state machine consists of a collection of states that can do work (Task states), determine to which states to transition next (Choice states), stop an execution with an error (Fail states), and so on. State machines are specified using a JSON-based, structured language. For more information, see Amazon States Language in the Step Functions User Guide.

If you set the publish parameter of this API action to true, it publishes version 1 as the first revision of the state machine.

For additional control over security, you can encrypt your data using a customer-managed key for Step Functions state machines. You can configure a symmetric KMS key and data key reuse period when creating or updating a State Machine. The execution history and state machine definition will be encrypted with the key applied to the State Machine.

CreateStateMachineAlias

$result = $client->createStateMachineAlias([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createStateMachineAliasAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates an alias for a state machine that points to one or two versions of the same state machine. You can set your application to call StartExecution with an alias and update the version the alias uses without changing the client's code.

You can also map an alias to split StartExecution requests between two versions of a state machine. To do this, add a second RoutingConfig object in the routingConfiguration parameter. You must also specify the percentage of execution run requests each version should receive in both RoutingConfig objects. Step Functions randomly chooses which version runs a given execution based on the percentage you specify.

To create an alias that points to a single version, specify a single RoutingConfig object with a weight set to 100.

You can create up to 100 aliases for each state machine. You must delete unused aliases using the DeleteStateMachineAlias API action.

CreateStateMachineAlias is an idempotent API. Step Functions bases the idempotency check on the stateMachineArn, description, name, and routingConfiguration parameters. Requests that contain the same values for these parameters return a successful idempotent response without creating a duplicate resource.

DeleteStateMachine

$result = $client->deleteStateMachine([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->deleteStateMachineAsync([/* ... */]);

Deletes a state machine. This is an asynchronous operation. It sets the state machine's status to DELETING and begins the deletion process. A state machine is deleted only when all its executions are completed. On the next state transition, the state machine's executions are terminated.

A qualified state machine ARN can either refer to a Distributed Map state defined within a state machine, a version ARN, or an alias ARN.

The following are some examples of qualified and unqualified state machine ARNs:

• The following qualified state machine ARN refers to a Distributed Map state with a label mapStateLabel in a state machine named myStateMachine.

  arn:partition:states:region:account-id:stateMachine:myStateMachine/mapStateLabel

  If you provide a qualified state machine ARN that refers to a Distributed Map state, the request fails with ValidationException.

• The following unqualified state machine ARN refers to a state machine named myStateMachine.

  arn:partition:states:region:account-id:stateMachine:myStateMachine

This API action also deletes all versions and aliases associated with a state machine.

GetExecutionHistory

$result = $client->getExecutionHistory([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getExecutionHistoryAsync([/* ... */]);

Returns the history of the specified execution as a list of events. By default, the results are returned in ascending order of the timeStamp of the events. Use the reverseOrder parameter to get the latest events first.

If nextToken is returned, there are more results available. The value of nextToken is a unique pagination token for each page. Make the call again using the returned token to retrieve the next page. Keep all other arguments unchanged. Each pagination token expires after 24 hours. Using an expired pagination token will return an HTTP 400 InvalidToken error.

PublishStateMachineVersion

$result = $client->publishStateMachineVersion([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->publishStateMachineVersionAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates a version from the current revision of a state machine. Use versions to create immutable snapshots of your state machine. You can start executions from versions either directly or with an alias. To create an alias, use CreateStateMachineAlias.

You can publish up to 1000 versions for each state machine. You must manually delete unused versions using the DeleteStateMachineVersion API action.

PublishStateMachineVersion is an idempotent API. It doesn't create a duplicate state machine version if it already exists for the current revision. Step Functions bases PublishStateMachineVersion's idempotency check on the stateMachineArn, name, and revisionId parameters. Requests with the same parameters return a successful idempotent response. If you don't specify a revisionId, Step Functions checks for a previously published version of the state machine's current revision.

RedriveExecution

$result = $client->redriveExecution([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->redriveExecutionAsync([/* ... */]);

Restarts unsuccessful executions of Standard workflows that didn't complete successfully in the last 14 days. These include failed, aborted, or timed out executions. When you redrive an execution, it continues the failed execution from the unsuccessful step and uses the same input. Step Functions preserves the results and execution history of the successful steps, and doesn't rerun these steps when you redrive an execution. Redriven executions use the same state machine definition and execution ARN as the original execution attempt.

For workflows that include an Inline Map or Parallel state, RedriveExecution API action reschedules and redrives only the iterations and branches that failed or aborted.

To redrive a workflow that includes a Distributed Map state whose Map Run failed, you must redrive the parent workflow. The parent workflow redrives all the unsuccessful states, including a failed Map Run. If a Map Run was not started in the original execution attempt, the redriven parent workflow starts the Map Run.

You can redrive executions if your original execution meets the following conditions:

• The execution status isn't SUCCEEDED.

• Your workflow execution has not exceeded the redrivable period of 14 days. Redrivable period refers to the time during which you can redrive a given execution. This period starts from the day a state machine completes its execution.

• The workflow execution has not exceeded the maximum open time of one year. For more information about state machine quotas, see Quotas related to state machine executions.

• The execution event history count is less than 24,999. Redriven executions append their event history to the existing event history. Make sure your workflow execution contains less than 24,999 events to accommodate the ExecutionRedriven history event and at least one other history event.

SendTaskFailure

$result = $client->sendTaskFailure([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->sendTaskFailureAsync([/* ... */]);

Used by activity workers, Task states using the callback pattern, and optionally Task states using the job run pattern to report that the task identified by the taskToken failed.

For an execution with encryption enabled, Step Functions will encrypt the error and cause fields using the KMS key for the execution role.

A caller can mark a task as fail without using any KMS permissions in the execution role if the caller provides a null value for both error and cause fields because no data needs to be encrypted.

StartExecution

$result = $client->startExecution([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->startExecutionAsync([/* ... */]);

Starts a state machine execution.

A qualified state machine ARN can either refer to a Distributed Map state defined within a state machine, a version ARN, or an alias ARN.

The following are some examples of qualified and unqualified state machine ARNs:

• The following qualified state machine ARN refers to a Distributed Map state with a label mapStateLabel in a state machine named myStateMachine.

  arn:partition:states:region:account-id:stateMachine:myStateMachine/mapStateLabel

  If you provide a qualified state machine ARN that refers to a Distributed Map state, the request fails with ValidationException.

• The following qualified state machine ARN refers to an alias named PROD.

  arn:<partition>:states:<region>:<account-id>:stateMachine:<myStateMachine:PROD>

  If you provide a qualified state machine ARN that refers to a version ARN or an alias ARN, the request starts execution for that version or alias.

• The following unqualified state machine ARN refers to a state machine named myStateMachine.

  arn:<partition>:states:<region>:<account-id>:stateMachine:<myStateMachine>

If you start an execution with an unqualified state machine ARN, Step Functions uses the latest revision of the state machine for the execution.

To start executions of a state machine version, call StartExecution and provide the version ARN or the ARN of an alias that points to the version.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->startExecution([

TestState

$result = $client->testState([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->testStateAsync([/* ... */]);

Accepts the definition of a single state and executes it. You can test a state without creating a state machine or updating an existing state machine. Using this API, you can test the following:

• A state's input and output processing data flow

• An Amazon Web Services service integration request and response

• An HTTP Task request and response

You can call this API on only one state at a time. The states that you can test include the following:

• All Task types except Activity

• Pass

• Wait

• Choice

• Succeed

• Fail

The TestState API assumes an IAM role which must contain the required IAM permissions for the resources your state is accessing. For information about the permissions a state might need, see IAM permissions to test a state.

The TestState API can run for up to five minutes. If the execution of a state exceeds this duration, it fails with the States.Timeout error.

TestState doesn't support Activity tasks, .sync or .waitForTaskToken service integration patterns, Parallel, or Map states.

UpdateStateMachine

$result = $client->updateStateMachine([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->updateStateMachineAsync([/* ... */]);

Updates an existing state machine by modifying its definition, roleArn, loggingConfiguration, or EncryptionConfiguration. Running executions will continue to use the previous definition and roleArn. You must include at least one of definition or roleArn or you will receive a MissingRequiredParameter error.

A qualified state machine ARN refers to a Distributed Map state defined within a state machine. For example, the qualified state machine ARN arn:partition:states:region:account-id:stateMachine:stateMachineName/mapStateLabel refers to a Distributed Map state with a label mapStateLabel in the state machine named stateMachineName.

A qualified state machine ARN can either refer to a Distributed Map state defined within a state machine, a version ARN, or an alias ARN.

The following are some examples of qualified and unqualified state machine ARNs:

• The following qualified state machine ARN refers to a Distributed Map state with a label mapStateLabel in a state machine named myStateMachine.

  arn:partition:states:region:account-id:stateMachine:myStateMachine/mapStateLabel

  If you provide a qualified state machine ARN that refers to a Distributed Map state, the request fails with ValidationException.

• The following qualified state machine ARN refers to an alias named PROD.

  arn:<partition>:states:<region>:<account-id>:stateMachine:<myStateMachine:PROD>

  If you provide a qualified state machine ARN that refers to a version ARN or an alias ARN, the request starts execution for that version or alias.

• The following unqualified state machine ARN refers to a state machine named myStateMachine.

  arn:<partition>:states:<region>:<account-id>:stateMachine:<myStateMachine>

After you update your state machine, you can set the publish parameter to true in the same action to publish a new version. This way, you can opt-in to strict versioning of your state machine.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->updateStateMachine([
    'definition' => '<string>',
    'encryptionConfiguration' => [
        'kmsDataKeyReusePeriodSeconds' => <integer>,

ValidateStateMachineDefinition

$result = $client->validateStateMachineDefinition([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->validateStateMachineDefinitionAsync([/* ... */]);

Validates the syntax of a state machine definition.

You can validate that a state machine definition is correct without creating a state machine resource. Step Functions will implicitly perform the same syntax check when you invoke CreateStateMachine and UpdateStateMachine. State machine definitions are specified using a JSON-based, structured language. For more information on Amazon States Language see Amazon States Language (ASL).

Suggested uses for ValidateStateMachineDefinition:

• Integrate automated checks into your code review or Continuous Integration (CI) process to validate state machine definitions before starting deployments.

• Run the validation from a Git pre-commit hook to check your state machine definitions before committing them to your source repository.
