all_supported instance-attribute

all_supported: AllSupported

Specifies whether Config records configuration changes for all supported resource types, excluding the global IAM resource types.

If you set this field to true, when Config adds support for a new resource type, Config starts recording resources of that type automatically.

If you set this field to true, you cannot enumerate specific resource types to record in the resourceTypes field of RecordingGroup, or to exclude in the resourceTypes field of ExclusionByResourceTypes.

Region availability

Check Resource Coverage by Region Availability to see if a resource type is supported in the Amazon Web Services Region where you set up Config.

exclusion_by_resource_types instance-attribute

exclusion_by_resource_types: NotRequired[ExclusionByResourceTypes]

An object that specifies how Config excludes resource types from being recorded by the configuration recorder.

Required fields

To use this option, you must set the useOnly field of RecordingStrategy to EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES.

include_global_resource_types instance-attribute

include_global_resource_types: IncludeGlobalResourceTypes

This option is a bundle which only applies to the global IAM resource types: IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed policies. These global IAM resource types can only be recorded by Config in Regions where Config was available before February 2022. You cannot be record the global IAM resouce types in Regions supported by Config after February 2022. For a list of those Regions, see Recording Amazon Web Services Resources | Global Resources.

Aurora global clusters are recorded in all enabled Regions

The AWS::RDS::GlobalCluster resource type will be recorded in all supported Config Regions where the configuration recorder is enabled, even if includeGlobalResourceTypes is setfalse. The includeGlobalResourceTypes option is a bundle which only applies to IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed policies.

If you do not want to record AWS::RDS::GlobalCluster in all enabled Regions, use one of the following recording strategies:

  1. Record all current and future resource types with exclusions (EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES), or

  2. Record specific resource types (INCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES).

For more information, see Selecting Which Resources are Recorded in the Config developer guide.

includeGlobalResourceTypes and the exclusion recording strategy

The includeGlobalResourceTypes field has no impact on the EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES recording strategy. This means that the global IAM resource types (IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed policies) will not be automatically added as exclusions for exclusionByResourceTypes when includeGlobalResourceTypes is set to false.

The includeGlobalResourceTypes field should only be used to modify the AllSupported field, as the default for the AllSupported field is to record configuration changes for all supported resource types excluding the global IAM resource types. To include the global IAM resource types when AllSupported is set to true, make sure to set includeGlobalResourceTypes to true.

To exclude the global IAM resource types for the EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES recording strategy, you need to manually add them to the resourceTypes field of exclusionByResourceTypes.

Required and optional fields

Before you set this field to true, set the allSupported field of RecordingGroup to true. Optionally, you can set the useOnly field of RecordingStrategy to ALL_SUPPORTED_RESOURCE_TYPES.

Overriding fields

If you set this field to false but list global IAM resource types in the resourceTypes field of RecordingGroup, Config will still record configuration changes for those specified resource types regardless of if you set the includeGlobalResourceTypes field to false.

If you do not want to record configuration changes to the global IAM resource types (IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed policies), make sure to not list them in the resourceTypes field in addition to setting the includeGlobalResourceTypes field to false.

recording_strategy instance-attribute

recording_strategy: NotRequired[RecordingStrategy]

An object that specifies the recording strategy for the configuration recorder.

  • If you set the useOnly field of RecordingStrategy to ALL_SUPPORTED_RESOURCE_TYPES, Config records configuration changes for all supported resource types, excluding the global IAM resource types. You also must set the allSupported field of RecordingGroup to true. When Config adds support for a new resource type, Config automatically starts recording resources of that type.

  • If you set the useOnly field of RecordingStrategy to INCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES, Config records configuration changes for only the resource types you specify in the resourceTypes field of RecordingGroup.

  • If you set the useOnly field of RecordingStrategy to EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES, Config records configuration changes for all supported resource types except the resource types that you specify to exclude from being recorded in the resourceTypes field of ExclusionByResourceTypes.

Required and optional fields

The recordingStrategy field is optional when you set the allSupported field of RecordingGroup to true.

The recordingStrategy field is optional when you list resource types in the resourceTypes field of RecordingGroup.

The recordingStrategy field is required if you list resource types to exclude from recording in the resourceTypes field of ExclusionByResourceTypes.

Overriding fields

If you choose EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES for the recording strategy, the exclusionByResourceTypes field will override other properties in the request.

For example, even if you set includeGlobalResourceTypes to false, global IAM resource types will still be automatically recorded in this option unless those resource types are specifically listed as exclusions in the resourceTypes field of exclusionByResourceTypes.

Global resources types and the resource exclusion recording strategy

By default, if you choose the EXCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES recording strategy, when Config adds support for a new resource type in the Region where you set up the configuration recorder, including global resource types, Config starts recording resources of that type automatically.

Unless specifically listed as exclusions, AWS::RDS::GlobalCluster will be recorded automatically in all supported Config Regions were the configuration recorder is enabled.

IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed policies will be recorded in the Region where you set up the configuration recorder if that is a Region where Config was available before February 2022. You cannot be record the global IAM resouce types in Regions supported by Config after February 2022. For a list of those Regions, see Recording Amazon Web Services Resources | Global Resources.

resource_types instance-attribute

resource_types: NotRequired[ResourceTypeList]

A comma-separated list that specifies which resource types Config records.

For a list of valid resourceTypes values, see the Resource Type Value column in Supported Amazon Web Services resource Types in the Config developer guide.

Required and optional fields

Optionally, you can set the useOnly field of RecordingStrategy to INCLUSION_BY_RESOURCE_TYPES.

To record all configuration changes, set the allSupported field of RecordingGroup to true, and either omit this field or don't specify any resource types in this field. If you set the allSupported field to false and specify values for resourceTypes, when Config adds support for a new type of resource, it will not record resources of that type unless you manually add that type to your recording group.

Region availability

Before specifying a resource type for Config to track, check Resource Coverage by Region Availability to see if the resource type is supported in the Amazon Web Services Region where you set up Config. If a resource type is supported by Config in at least one Region, you can enable the recording of that resource type in all Regions supported by Config, even if the specified resource type is not supported in the Amazon Web Services Region where you set up Config.
