Creates or updates a log alarm

Description

Creates or updates a log alarm. A log alarm evaluates the results of a CloudWatch Logs scheduled query against the configured threshold and comparison operator to determine its state.

See https://www.paws-r-sdk.com/docs/cloudwatch_put_log_alarm/ for full documentation.

Arguments

AlarmName

[required] The name for the alarm. This name must be unique within the Amazon Web Services account and Region.

AlarmDescription

The description for the alarm.

ScheduledQueryConfiguration

[required] The configuration of the underlying CloudWatch Logs scheduled query that this alarm evaluates, including the query string, log groups, schedule, and aggregation expression.

ActionLogLineCount

The number of log lines from the most recent scheduled query execution to include in alarm action notifications. Valid range is 0 through 50. The default is 0, which means no log lines are included.

ActionLogLineRoleArn

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an IAM role that CloudWatch assumes to retrieve log events for inclusion in alarm action notifications. Required when ActionLogLineCount is greater than 0.

ActionsEnabled

Indicates whether actions should be executed during any changes to the alarm state. The default is true.

OKActions

The actions to execute when this alarm transitions to the OK state from any other state. Each action is specified as an Amazon Resource Name (ARN).

Valid Values:

Amazon SNS actions:

arn:aws:sns:region:account-id:sns-topic-name

Lambda actions:

  • Invoke the latest version of a Lambda function: ⁠arn:aws:lambda:region:account-id:function:function-name ⁠

  • Invoke a specific version of a Lambda function: ⁠arn:aws:lambda:region:account-id:function:function-name:version-number ⁠

  • Invoke a function by using an alias Lambda function: ⁠arn:aws:lambda:region:account-id:function:function-name:alias-name ⁠

AlarmActions

The actions to execute when this alarm transitions to the ALARM state from any other state. Each action is specified as an Amazon Resource Name (ARN).

Valid Values:

Amazon SNS actions:

arn:aws:sns:region:account-id:sns-topic-name

Lambda actions:

  • Invoke the latest version of a Lambda function: ⁠arn:aws:lambda:region:account-id:function:function-name ⁠

  • Invoke a specific version of a Lambda function: ⁠arn:aws:lambda:region:account-id:function:function-name:version-number ⁠

  • Invoke a function by using an alias Lambda function: ⁠arn:aws:lambda:region:account-id:function:function-name:alias-name ⁠

Systems Manager actions:

arn:aws:ssm:region:account-id:opsitem:severity

InsufficientDataActions

The actions to execute when this alarm transitions to the INSUFFICIENT_DATA state from any other state. Each action is specified as an Amazon Resource Name (ARN).

Valid Values:

Amazon SNS actions:

arn:aws:sns:region:account-id:sns-topic-name

Lambda actions:

  • Invoke the latest version of a Lambda function: ⁠arn:aws:lambda:region:account-id:function:function-name ⁠

  • Invoke a specific version of a Lambda function: ⁠arn:aws:lambda:region:account-id:function:function-name:version-number ⁠

  • Invoke a function by using an alias Lambda function: ⁠arn:aws:lambda:region:account-id:function:function-name:alias-name ⁠

QueryResultsToEvaluate

[required] The number of most recent scheduled query results to evaluate against the threshold (the N in M-of-N evaluation). Valid range is 1 through 100.

QueryResultsToAlarm

[required] The number of query results, out of the most recent QueryResultsToEvaluate results, that must breach the threshold to trigger the alarm to transition to ALARM (the M in M-of-N evaluation). Must be less than or equal to QueryResultsToEvaluate.

Threshold

[required] The value to compare with the aggregated query result.

ComparisonOperator

[required] The arithmetic operation to use when comparing the aggregated query result and the threshold. The aggregated query result is used as the first operand. Valid values are GreaterThanThreshold, GreaterThanOrEqualToThreshold, LessThanThreshold, and LessThanOrEqualToThreshold.

TreatMissingData

Sets how this alarm is to handle missing data points. Valid values are breaching, notBreaching, ignore, and missing. If this parameter is omitted, the default behavior of missing is used.

Tags

A list of key-value pairs to associate with the alarm. You can use tags to categorize and manage your alarms.

WarmUpConfiguration

The warm-up configuration for the alarm. A warm-up period delays alarm evaluation after you create or update the alarm. The warm-up period reduces alarm noise from missing data while a new resource or service starts publishing data.

For more information, see Alarm warm-up periods in the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide.
