The operation failed because AWS WAF didn't recognize a parameter in the request. For example:   
+ You specified a parameter name or value that isn't valid.
+ Your nested statement isn't valid. You might have tried to nest a statement that can’t be nested. 
+ You tried to update a `WebACL` with a `DefaultAction` that isn't among the types available at [DefaultAction](API_DefaultAction.md).
+ Your request references an ARN that is malformed, or corresponds to a resource with which a web ACL can't be associated.

The settings where the invalid parameter was found.   
 ** Parameter **   
The invalid parameter that resulted in the exception.   
 ** Reason **   
Additional information about the exception.

 ** WAFNonexistentItemException **   
 AWS WAF couldn’t perform the operation because your resource doesn't exist. If you've just created a resource that you're using in this operation, you might just need to wait a few minutes. It can take from a few seconds to a number of minutes for changes to propagate.
