ActivatedRule
This is AWS WAF Classic documentation. For more information, see AWS WAF Classic in the developer guide.
For the latest version of AWS WAF, use the AWS WAFV2 API and see the AWS WAF Developer Guide. With the latest version, AWS WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use.
The ActivatedRule
object in an UpdateWebACL request specifies a Rule
that you want to insert or delete, the priority of the Rule
in the WebACL
, and the action that you want AWS WAF to take when a web request matches the Rule
(ALLOW
, BLOCK
, or COUNT
).
To specify whether to insert or delete a Rule
, use the Action
parameter in the WebACLUpdate data type.
Types
Properties
An array of rules to exclude from a rule group. This is applicable only when the ActivatedRule
refers to a RuleGroup
.
Use the OverrideAction
to test your RuleGroup
.
The rule type, either REGULAR
, as defined by Rule, RATE_BASED
, as defined by RateBasedRule, or GROUP
, as defined by RuleGroup. The default is REGULAR. Although this field is optional, be aware that if you try to add a RATE_BASED rule to a web ACL without setting the type, the UpdateWebACL request will fail because the request tries to add a REGULAR rule with the specified ID, which does not exist.
