Registers a new activity type along with its configuration settings in the specified domain.
swf_register_activity_type(domain, name, version, description,
defaultTaskStartToCloseTimeout, defaultTaskHeartbeatTimeout,
defaultTaskList, defaultTaskPriority, defaultTaskScheduleToStartTimeout,
defaultTaskScheduleToCloseTimeout)
[required] The name of the domain in which this activity is to be registered.
[required] The name of the activity type within the domain.
The specified string must not start or end with whitespace. It must not
contain a :
(colon), /
(slash), |
(vertical bar), or any control
characters (U+0000`-`U+001f
\| U+007f`-`U+009f
). Also, it must not
contain the literal string arn
.
[required] The version of the activity type.
The activity type consists of the name and version, the combination of which must be unique within the domain.
The specified string must not start or end with whitespace. It must not
contain a :
(colon), /
(slash), |
(vertical bar), or any control
characters (U+0000`-`U+001f
\| U+007f`-`U+009f
). Also, it must not
contain the literal string arn
.
A textual description of the activity type.
If set, specifies the default maximum duration that a worker can take to
process tasks of this activity type. This default can be overridden when
scheduling an activity task using the ScheduleActivityTask
Decision.
The duration is specified in seconds, an integer greater than or equal
to 0
. You can use NONE
to specify unlimited duration.
If set, specifies the default maximum time before which a worker
processing a task of this type must report progress by calling
RecordActivityTaskHeartbeat. If the timeout is exceeded, the activity
task is automatically timed out. This default can be overridden when
scheduling an activity task using the ScheduleActivityTask
Decision.
If the activity worker subsequently attempts to record a heartbeat or
returns a result, the activity worker receives an UnknownResource
fault. In this case, Amazon SWF no longer considers the activity task to
be valid; the activity worker should clean up the activity task.
The duration is specified in seconds, an integer greater than or equal
to 0
. You can use NONE
to specify unlimited duration.
If set, specifies the default task list to use for scheduling tasks of
this activity type. This default task list is used if a task list isn't
provided when a task is scheduled through the ScheduleActivityTask
Decision.
The default task priority to assign to the activity type. If not
assigned, then 0
is used. Valid values are integers that range from
Java's Integer.MIN_VALUE
(-2147483648) to Integer.MAX_VALUE
(2147483647). Higher numbers indicate higher priority.
For more information about setting task priority, see Setting Task Priority in the in the Amazon SWF Developer Guide..
If set, specifies the default maximum duration that a task of this
activity type can wait before being assigned to a worker. This default
can be overridden when scheduling an activity task using the
ScheduleActivityTask
Decision.
The duration is specified in seconds, an integer greater than or equal
to 0
. You can use NONE
to specify unlimited duration.
If set, specifies the default maximum duration for a task of this
activity type. This default can be overridden when scheduling an
activity task using the ScheduleActivityTask
Decision.
The duration is specified in seconds, an integer greater than or equal
to 0
. You can use NONE
to specify unlimited duration.
svc$register_activity_type( domain = "string", name = "string", version = "string", description = "string", defaultTaskStartToCloseTimeout = "string", defaultTaskHeartbeatTimeout = "string", defaultTaskList = list( name = "string" ), defaultTaskPriority = "string", defaultTaskScheduleToStartTimeout = "string", defaultTaskScheduleToCloseTimeout = "string" )
A TypeAlreadyExists
fault is returned if the type already exists in
the domain. You cannot change any configuration settings of the type
after its registration, and it must be registered as a new version.
Access Control
You can use IAM policies to control this action's access to Amazon SWF resources as follows:
Use a Resource
element with the domain name to limit the action to
only specified domains.
Use an Action
element to allow or deny permission to call this
action.
Constrain the following parameters by using a Condition
element
with the appropriate keys.
defaultTaskList.name
: String constraint. The key is
swf:defaultTaskList.name
.
name
: String constraint. The key is swf:name
.
version
: String constraint. The key is swf:version
.
If the caller doesn't have sufficient permissions to invoke the action,
or the parameter values fall outside the specified constraints, the
action fails. The associated event attribute's cause
parameter is set
to OPERATION_NOT_PERMITTED
. For details and example IAM policies, see
Using IAM to Manage Access to Amazon SWF Workflows
in the Amazon SWF Developer Guide.
