Resource prefixes
To use a custom prefix for a resource name, specify the prefix when you deploy the stack.
| Field on AWS Console¹ | Parameter key for AWS CLI² | all-in-one stack | scanner stack | storage stack |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Prefix for IAM role name | IAMRolePrefix | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |
| Prefix for IAM policy name | IAMPolicyPrefix | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |
| Prefix for Lambda function name³ | LambdaFunctionPrefix | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |
| Prefix for Lambda layer name | LambdaLayerPrefix | ✔️ | ✔️ | |
| Prefix for SQS queue name | SQSQueuePrefix | ✔️ | ✔️ | |
| Prefix for SNS topic name | SNSTopicPrefix | ✔️ | ✔️ |
- You may see these fields on the Quick create stack page when you deploy the stack and on the Specify stack details page when you update the stack.
- You may use ParameterKey and ParameterValue to specify prefixes in AWS CLI option --parameters.
Example:
--parameters ParameterKey=IAMRolePrefix,ParameterValue=IAM-ROLE-PREFIX- ParameterKey=IAMPolicyPrefix,ParameterValue=IAM-policy-prefix-
Do not modify any prefixes when you update the stack. Updating the prefix for the Lambda function can cause your update to fail. Updating other prefixes will prevent automatic updates from occurring.
