Asset and model states - AWS IoT SiteWise

Asset and model states

When you create, update, or delete an asset, an asset model, or a component model, the changes take time to propagate. AWS IoT SiteWise resolves these operations asynchronously and updates the status of each resource. Each asset, asset model, and component model has a status field that contains the state of the resource and any error message, if applicable. The state can be one of the following values:

  • ACTIVE – The resource is active. This is the only state in which you can query and interact with assets, asset models, and component models.

  • CREATING – The resource is being created.

  • UPDATING – The resource is being updated.

  • DELETING – The resource is being deleted.

  • PROPAGATING – (Asset models and component models only) The changes are propagating to all dependent resources (from asset model to assets, or from component model to asset models).

  • FAILED – The resource failed to validate during a create or update operation, possibly due to a circular reference in an expression. You can delete resources that are in the FAILED state.

Some of the create, update, and delete operations in AWS IoT SiteWise place an asset, asset model, or component model in a state other than ACTIVE while the operation resolves. To query or interact with a resource after you perform one of these operations, you must wait until the state changes to ACTIVE. Otherwise, your requests fail.
