UpdateStackSet - AWS CloudFormation (original) (raw)

Updates the stack set and associated stack instances in the specified accounts and AWS Regions.

Even if the stack set operation created by updating the stack set fails (completely or partially, below or above a specified failure tolerance), the stack set is updated with your changes. Subsequent CreateStackInstances calls on the specified stack set use the updated stack set.

Request Parameters

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.

Accounts.member.N

[Self-managed permissions] The accounts in which to update associated stack instances. If you specify accounts, you must also specify the AWS Regions in which to update stack set instances.

To update all the stack instances associated with this stack set, don't specify the Accounts or Regions properties.

If the stack set update includes changes to the template (that is, if theTemplateBody or TemplateURL properties are specified), or theParameters property, CloudFormation marks all stack instances with a status ofOUTDATED prior to updating the stack instances in the specified accounts and AWS Regions. If the stack set update does not include changes to the template or parameters, CloudFormation updates the stack instances in the specified accounts and AWS Regions, while leaving all other stack instances with their existing stack instance status.

Type: Array of strings

Pattern: ^[0-9]{12}$

Required: No

AdministrationRoleARN

[Self-managed permissions] The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM role to use to update this stack set.

Specify an IAM role only if you are using customized administrator roles to control which users or groups can manage specific stack sets within the same administrator account. For more information, see Grant self-managed permissions in the AWS CloudFormation User Guide.

If you specified a customized administrator role when you created the stack set, you must specify a customized administrator role, even if it is the same customized administrator role used with this stack set previously.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 20. Maximum length of 2048.

Required: No

AutoDeployment

[Service-managed permissions] Describes whether StackSets automatically deploys to AWS Organizations accounts that are added to a target organization or organizational unit (OU). For more information, see Manage automatic deployments for CloudFormation StackSets that use service-managed permissions in the AWS CloudFormation User Guide.

If you specify AutoDeployment, don't specify DeploymentTargets or Regions.

Type: AutoDeployment object

Required: No

CallAs

[Service-managed permissions] Specifies whether you are acting as an account administrator in the organization's management account or as a delegated administrator in a member account.

By default, SELF is specified. Use SELF for stack sets with self-managed permissions.

Type: String

Valid Values: SELF | DELEGATED_ADMIN

Required: No

Capabilities.member.N

In some cases, you must explicitly acknowledge that your stack template contains certain capabilities in order for CloudFormation to update the stack set and its associated stack instances.

Important

Stack sets with service-managed permissions do not currently support the use of macros in templates. (This includes the AWS::Include and AWS::Serverless transforms, which are macros hosted by CloudFormation.) Even if you specify this capability for a stack set with service-managed permissions, if you reference a macro in your template the stack set operation will fail.

Type: Array of strings

Valid Values: CAPABILITY_IAM | CAPABILITY_NAMED_IAM | CAPABILITY_AUTO_EXPAND

Required: No

DeploymentTargets

[Service-managed permissions] The AWS Organizations accounts in which to update associated stack instances.

To update all the stack instances associated with this stack set, do not specifyDeploymentTargets or Regions.

If the stack set update includes changes to the template (that is, ifTemplateBody or TemplateURL is specified), or theParameters, CloudFormation marks all stack instances with a status ofOUTDATED prior to updating the stack instances in the specified accounts and AWS Regions. If the stack set update doesn't include changes to the template or parameters, CloudFormation updates the stack instances in the specified accounts and Regions, while leaving all other stack instances with their existing stack instance status.

Type: DeploymentTargets object

Required: No

Description

A brief description of updates that you are making.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 1024.

Required: No

ExecutionRoleName

[Self-managed permissions] The name of the IAM execution role to use to update the stack set. If you do not specify an execution role, CloudFormation uses theAWSCloudFormationStackSetExecutionRole role for the stack set operation.

Specify an IAM role only if you are using customized execution roles to control which stack resources users and groups can include in their stack sets.

If you specify a customized execution role, CloudFormation uses that role to update the stack. If you do not specify a customized execution role, CloudFormation performs the update using the role previously associated with the stack set, so long as you have permissions to perform operations on the stack set.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 64.

Pattern: [a-zA-Z_0-9+=,.@-]+

Required: No

ManagedExecution

Describes whether StackSets performs non-conflicting operations concurrently and queues conflicting operations.

Type: ManagedExecution object

Required: No

OperationId

The unique ID for this stack set operation.

The operation ID also functions as an idempotency token, to ensure that CloudFormation performs the stack set operation only once, even if you retry the request multiple times. You might retry stack set operation requests to ensure that CloudFormation successfully received them.

Repeating this stack set operation with a new operation ID retries all stack instances whose status is OUTDATED.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 128.

Pattern: [a-zA-Z0-9][-a-zA-Z0-9]*

Required: No

OperationPreferences

Preferences for how CloudFormation performs this stack set operation.

Type: StackSetOperationPreferences object

Required: No

Parameters.member.N

A list of input parameters for the stack set template.

Type: Array of Parameter objects

Required: No

PermissionModel

Describes how the IAM roles required for stack set operations are created. You cannot modify PermissionModel if there are stack instances associated with your stack set.

Type: String

Valid Values: SERVICE_MANAGED | SELF_MANAGED

Required: No

Regions.member.N

The AWS Regions in which to update associated stack instances. If you specify Regions, you must also specify accounts in which to update stack set instances.

To update all the stack instances associated with this stack set, do not specify the Accounts or Regions properties.

If the stack set update includes changes to the template (that is, if theTemplateBody or TemplateURL properties are specified), or theParameters property, CloudFormation marks all stack instances with a status ofOUTDATED prior to updating the stack instances in the specified accounts and Regions. If the stack set update does not include changes to the template or parameters, CloudFormation updates the stack instances in the specified accounts and Regions, while leaving all other stack instances with their existing stack instance status.

Type: Array of strings

Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9-]{1,128}$

Required: No

StackSetName

The name or unique ID of the stack set that you want to update.

Type: String

Required: Yes

Tags.member.N

The key-value pairs to associate with this stack set and the stacks created from it. CloudFormation also propagates these tags to supported resources that are created in the stacks. You can specify a maximum number of 50 tags.

If you specify tags for this parameter, those tags replace any list of tags that are currently associated with this stack set. This means:

If you specify new tags as part of an UpdateStackSet action, CloudFormation checks to see if you have the required IAM permission to tag resources. If you omit tags that are currently associated with the stack set from the list of tags you specify, CloudFormation assumes that you want to remove those tags from the stack set, and checks to see if you have permission to untag resources. If you don't have the necessary permission(s), the entireUpdateStackSet action fails with an access denied error, and the stack set is not updated.

Type: Array of Tag objects

Array Members: Maximum number of 50 items.

Required: No

TemplateBody

The structure that contains the template body, with a minimum length of 1 byte and a maximum length of 51,200 bytes.

Conditional: You must specify only one of the following parameters:TemplateBody or TemplateURL—or setUsePreviousTemplate to true.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1.

Required: No

TemplateURL

The URL of a file that contains the template body. The URL must point to a template (maximum size: 1 MB) that is located in an Amazon S3 bucket or a Systems Manager document. The location for an Amazon S3 bucket must start with https://.

Conditional: You must specify only one of the following parameters:TemplateBody or TemplateURL—or setUsePreviousTemplate to true.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 5120.
