CacheBehavior
A complex type that describes how CloudFront processes requests.
You must create at least as many cache behaviors (including the default cache behavior) as you have origins if you want CloudFront to serve objects from all of the origins. Each cache behavior specifies the one origin from which you want CloudFront to get objects. If you have two origins and only the default cache behavior, the default cache behavior will cause CloudFront to get objects from one of the origins, but the other origin is never used.
For the current quota (formerly known as limit) on the number of cache behaviors that you can add to a distribution, see Quotas in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
If you don't want to specify any cache behaviors, include only an empty CacheBehaviors
element. Don't specify an empty individual CacheBehavior
element, because this is invalid. For more information, see CacheBehaviors.
To delete all cache behaviors in an existing distribution, update the distribution configuration and include only an empty CacheBehaviors
element.
To add, change, or remove one or more cache behaviors, update the distribution configuration and specify all of the cache behaviors that you want to include in the updated distribution.
For more information about cache behaviors, see Cache Behavior Settings in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
Types
Properties
A complex type that controls which HTTP methods CloudFront processes and forwards to your Amazon S3 bucket or your custom origin. There are three choices:
The unique identifier of the cache policy that is attached to this cache behavior. For more information, see Creating cache policies or Using the managed cache policies in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
Whether you want CloudFront to automatically compress certain files for this cache behavior. If so, specify true; if not, specify false. For more information, see Serving Compressed Files in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
This field only supports standard distributions. You can't specify this field for multi-tenant distributions. For more information, see Unsupported features for SaaS Manager for Amazon CloudFront in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
The value of ID
for the field-level encryption configuration that you want CloudFront to use for encrypting specific fields of data for this cache behavior.
This field is deprecated. We recommend that you use a cache policy or an origin request policy instead of this field. For more information, see Working with policies in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
A list of CloudFront functions that are associated with this cache behavior. CloudFront functions must be published to the LIVE
stage to associate them with a cache behavior.
The gRPC configuration for your cache behavior.
A complex type that contains zero or more Lambda@Edge function associations for a cache behavior.
This field only supports standard distributions. You can't specify this field for multi-tenant distributions. For more information, see Unsupported features for SaaS Manager for Amazon CloudFront in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
This field only supports standard distributions. You can't specify this field for multi-tenant distributions. For more information, see Unsupported features for SaaS Manager for Amazon CloudFront in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
The unique identifier of the origin request policy that is attached to this cache behavior. For more information, see Creating origin request policies or Using the managed origin request policies in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
The pattern (for example, images/*.jpg
) that specifies which requests to apply the behavior to. When CloudFront receives a viewer request, the requested path is compared with path patterns in the order in which cache behaviors are listed in the distribution.
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the real-time log configuration that is attached to this cache behavior. For more information, see Real-time logs in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
The identifier for a response headers policy.
This field only supports standard distributions. You can't specify this field for multi-tenant distributions. For more information, see Unsupported features for SaaS Manager for Amazon CloudFront in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
The value of ID
for the origin that you want CloudFront to route requests to when they match this cache behavior.
A list of key groups that CloudFront can use to validate signed URLs or signed cookies.
We recommend using TrustedKeyGroups
instead of TrustedSigners
.
The protocol that viewers can use to access the files in the origin specified by TargetOriginId
when a request matches the path pattern in PathPattern
. You can specify the following options:
