Create or update a parameter in Parameter Store.
Parameter Store throughput defines the number of API transactions per second (TPS) that Systems Manager can process. This applies to GetParameter, GetParameters, and PutParameter API calls for your Amazon Web Services account and Amazon Web Services Region. By default, Parameter Store is configured with a standard throughput quota suitable for low- to moderate-volume workloads. Applications that retrieve configuration data infrequently or operate at smaller scale can use this default setting without additional cost.
For higher-volume workloads, you can enable higher throughput. This increases the maximum number of supported transactions per second for your account and Region. Increased throughput supports applications and workloads that need concurrent access to multiple parameters. If you experience ThrottlingException: Rate exceeded errors, enable higher throughput. For more information, see Changing Parameter Store throughput.
Parameters:
-
name(PSParameterName) –The fully qualified name of the parameter that you want to create or update.
You can't enter the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for a parameter, only the parameter name itself.
The fully qualified name includes the complete hierarchy of the parameter path and name. For parameters in a hierarchy, you must include a leading forward slash character (/) when you create or reference a parameter. For example:
/Dev/DBServer/MySQL/db-string13Naming Constraints:
-
Parameter names are case sensitive.
-
A parameter name must be unique within an Amazon Web Services Region
-
A parameter name can't be prefixed with "
aws" or "ssm" (case-insensitive). -
Parameter names can include only the following symbols and letters:
a-zA-Z0-9_.-In addition, the slash character ( / ) is used to delineate hierarchies in parameter names. For example:
/Dev/Production/East/Project-ABC/MyParameter -
Parameter names can't contain spaces. The service removes any spaces specified for the beginning or end of a parameter name. If the specified name for a parameter contains spaces between characters, the request fails with a
ValidationExceptionerror. -
Parameter hierarchies are limited to a maximum depth of fifteen levels.
For additional information about valid values for parameter names, see Creating Systems Manager parameters in the Amazon Web Services Systems Manager User Guide.
The reported maximum length of 2048 characters for a parameter name includes 1037 characters that are reserved for internal use by Systems Manager. The maximum length for a parameter name that you specify is 1011 characters.
This count of 1011 characters includes the characters in the ARN that precede the name you specify. This ARN length will vary depending on your partition and Region. For example, the following 45 characters count toward the 1011 character maximum for a parameter created in the US East (Ohio) Region:
arn:aws:ssm:us-east-2:111122223333:parameter/. -
-
description(Optional[ParameterDescription], default:None) –Information about the parameter that you want to add to the system. Optional but recommended.
Don't enter personally identifiable information in this field.
-
value(PSParameterValue) –The parameter value that you want to add to the system. Standard parameters have a value limit of 4 KB. Advanced parameters have a value limit of 8 KB.
Parameters can't be referenced or nested in the values of other parameters. You can't include values wrapped in double brackets
{{}}or{{ssm:parameter-name}}in a parameter value. -
type(Optional[ParameterType], default:None) –The type of parameter that you want to create.
SecureStringisn't currently supported for CloudFormation templates.Items in a
StringListmust be separated by a comma (,). You can't use other punctuation or special character to escape items in the list. If you have a parameter value that requires a comma, then use theStringdata type.Specifying a parameter type isn't required when updating a parameter. You must specify a parameter type when creating a parameter.
-
key_id(Optional[ParameterKeyId], default:None) –The Key Management Service (KMS) ID that you want to use to encrypt a parameter. Use a custom key for better security. Required for parameters that use the
SecureStringdata type.If you don't specify a key ID, the system uses the default key associated with your Amazon Web Services account, which is not as secure as using a custom key.
-
To use a custom KMS key, choose the
SecureStringdata type with theKey IDparameter.
-
-
overwrite(Optional[Boolean], default:None) –Overwrite an existing parameter. The default value is
false. -
allowed_pattern(Optional[AllowedPattern], default:None) –A regular expression used to validate the parameter value. For example, for String types with values restricted to numbers, you can specify the following: AllowedPattern=^\d+$
-
tags(Optional[TagList], default:None) –Optional metadata that you assign to a resource. Tags enable you to categorize a resource in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, or environment. For example, you might want to tag a Systems Manager parameter to identify the type of resource to which it applies, the environment, or the type of configuration data referenced by the parameter. In this case, you could specify the following key-value pairs:
-
Key=Resource,Value=S3bucket -
Key=OS,Value=Windows -
Key=ParameterType,Value=LicenseKey
To add tags to an existing Systems Manager parameter, use the AddTagsToResource operation.
-
-
tier(Optional[ParameterTier], default:None) –The parameter tier to assign to a parameter.
Parameter Store offers a standard tier and an advanced tier for parameters. Standard parameters have a content size limit of 4 KB and can't be configured to use parameter policies. You can create a maximum of 10,000 standard parameters for each Region in an Amazon Web Services account. Standard parameters are offered at no additional cost.
Advanced parameters have a content size limit of 8 KB and can be configured to use parameter policies. You can create a maximum of 100,000 advanced parameters for each Region in an Amazon Web Services account. Advanced parameters incur a charge. For more information, see Managing parameter tiers in the Amazon Web Services Systems Manager User Guide.
You can change a standard parameter to an advanced parameter any time. But you can't revert an advanced parameter to a standard parameter. Reverting an advanced parameter to a standard parameter would result in data loss because the system would truncate the size of the parameter from 8 KB to 4 KB. Reverting would also remove any policies attached to the parameter. Lastly, advanced parameters use a different form of encryption than standard parameters.
If you no longer need an advanced parameter, or if you no longer want to incur charges for an advanced parameter, you must delete it and recreate it as a new standard parameter.
Using the Default Tier Configuration
In
PutParameterrequests, you can specify the tier to create the parameter in. Whenever you specify a tier in the request, Parameter Store creates or updates the parameter according to that request. However, if you don't specify a tier in a request, Parameter Store assigns the tier based on the current Parameter Store default tier configuration.The default tier when you begin using Parameter Store is the standard-parameter tier. If you use the advanced-parameter tier, you can specify one of the following as the default:
-
Advanced: With this option, Parameter Store evaluates all requests as advanced parameters.
-
Intelligent-Tiering: With this option, Parameter Store evaluates each request to determine if the parameter is standard or advanced.
If the request doesn't include any options that require an advanced parameter, the parameter is created in the standard-parameter tier. If one or more options requiring an advanced parameter are included in the request, Parameter Store create a parameter in the advanced-parameter tier.
This approach helps control your parameter-related costs by always creating standard parameters unless an advanced parameter is necessary.
Options that require an advanced parameter include the following:
-
The content size of the parameter is more than 4 KB.
-
The parameter uses a parameter policy.
-
More than 10,000 parameters already exist in your Amazon Web Services account in the current Amazon Web Services Region.
For more information about configuring the default tier option, see Specifying a default parameter tier in the Amazon Web Services Systems Manager User Guide.
-
-
policies(Optional[ParameterPolicies], default:None) –One or more policies to apply to a parameter. This operation takes a JSON array. Parameter Store, a tool in Amazon Web Services Systems Manager supports the following policy types:
Expiration: This policy deletes the parameter after it expires. When you create the policy, you specify the expiration date. You can update the expiration date and time by updating the policy. Updating the parameter doesn't affect the expiration date and time. When the expiration time is reached, Parameter Store deletes the parameter.
ExpirationNotification: This policy initiates an event in Amazon CloudWatch Events that notifies you about the expiration. By using this policy, you can receive notification before or after the expiration time is reached, in units of days or hours.
NoChangeNotification: This policy initiates a CloudWatch Events event if a parameter hasn't been modified for a specified period of time. This policy type is useful when, for example, a secret needs to be changed within a period of time, but it hasn't been changed.
All existing policies are preserved until you send new policies or an empty policy. For more information about parameter policies, see Assigning parameter policies.
-
data_type(Optional[ParameterDataType], default:None) –The data type for a
Stringparameter. Supported data types include plain text and Amazon Machine Image (AMI) IDs.The following data type values are supported.
-
text -
aws:ec2:image -
aws:ssm:integration
When you create a
Stringparameter and specifyaws:ec2:image, Amazon Web Services Systems Manager validates the parameter value is in the required format, such asami-12345abcdeEXAMPLE, and that the specified AMI is available in your Amazon Web Services account.If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response which indicates a successful
PutParametercall for all cases except for data typeaws:ec2:image. If you callPutParameterwithaws:ec2:imagedata type, a successful HTTP 200 response does not guarantee that your parameter was successfully created or updated. Theaws:ec2:imagevalue is validated asynchronously, and thePutParametercall returns before the validation is complete. If you submit an invalid AMI value, the PutParameter operation will return success, but the asynchronous validation will fail and the parameter will not be created or updated. To monitor whether youraws:ec2:imageparameters are created successfully, see Setting up notifications or trigger actions based on Parameter Store events. For more information about AMI format validation , see Native parameter support for Amazon Machine Image IDs. -
Raises:
-
HierarchyLevelLimitExceededException–A hierarchy can have a maximum of 15 levels. For more information, see Requirements and constraints for parameter names in the Amazon Web Services Systems Manager User Guide.
-
HierarchyTypeMismatchException–Parameter Store doesn't support changing a parameter type in a hierarchy. For example, you can't change a parameter from a
Stringtype to aSecureStringtype. You must create a new, unique parameter. -
IncompatiblePolicyException–There is a conflict in the policies specified for this parameter. You can't, for example, specify two Expiration policies for a parameter. Review your policies, and try again.
-
InternalServerError–An error occurred on the server side.
-
InvalidAllowedPatternException–The request doesn't meet the regular expression requirement.
-
InvalidKeyId–The query key ID isn't valid.
-
InvalidPolicyAttributeException–A policy attribute or its value is invalid.
-
InvalidPolicyTypeException–The policy type isn't supported. Parameter Store supports the following policy types: Expiration, ExpirationNotification, and NoChangeNotification.
-
ParameterAlreadyExists–The parameter already exists. You can't create duplicate parameters.
-
ParameterLimitExceeded–You have exceeded the number of parameters for this Amazon Web Services account. Delete one or more parameters and try again.
-
ParameterMaxVersionLimitExceeded–Parameter Store retains the 100 most recently created versions of a parameter. After this number of versions has been created, Parameter Store deletes the oldest version when a new one is created. However, if the oldest version has a label attached to it, Parameter Store won't delete the version and instead presents this error message:
An error occurred (ParameterMaxVersionLimitExceeded) when calling the PutParameter operation: You attempted to create a new version of parameter-name by calling the PutParameter API with the overwrite flag. Version version-number, the oldest version, can't be deleted because it has a label associated with it. Move the label to another version of the parameter, and try again.This safeguard is to prevent parameter versions with mission critical labels assigned to them from being deleted. To continue creating new parameters, first move the label from the oldest version of the parameter to a newer one for use in your operations. For information about moving parameter labels, see Move a parameter label (console) or Move a parameter label (CLI) in the Amazon Web Services Systems Manager User Guide.
-
ParameterPatternMismatchException–The parameter name isn't valid.
-
PoliciesLimitExceededException–You specified more than the maximum number of allowed policies for the parameter. The maximum is 10.
-
TooManyUpdates–There are concurrent updates for a resource that supports one update at a time.
-
UnsupportedParameterType–The parameter type isn't supported.
-
UnknownServiceError–The service returned an error code this client does not model.
