Detects whether a stack's actual configuration differs, or has drifted, from it's expected configuration, as defined in the stack template and any values specified as template parameters. For each resource in the stack that supports drift detection, AWS CloudFormation compares the actual configuration of the resource with its expected template configuration. Only resource properties explicitly defined in the stack template are checked for drift. A stack is considered to have drifted if one or more of its resources differ from their expected template configurations. For more information, see Detecting Unregulated Configuration Changes to Stacks and Resources.
Use detect_stack_drift to detect
drift on all supported resources for a given stack, or
detect_stack_resource_drift
to detect drift on individual resources.
For a list of stack resources that currently support drift detection, see Resources that Support Drift Detection.
detect_stack_drift can take up to
several minutes, depending on the number of resources contained within
the stack. Use
describe_stack_drift_detection_status
to monitor the progress of a detect stack drift operation. Once the
drift detection operation has completed, use
describe_stack_resource_drifts
to return drift information about the stack and its resources.
When detecting drift on a stack, AWS CloudFormation does not detect
drift on any nested stacks belonging to that stack. Perform
detect_stack_drift directly on
the nested stack itself.
cloudformation_detect_stack_drift(StackName, LogicalResourceIds)A list with the following syntax:
list(
StackDriftDetectionId = "string"
)
[required] The name of the stack for which you want to detect drift.
The logical names of any resources you want to use as filters.
svc$detect_stack_drift(
StackName = "string",
LogicalResourceIds = list(
"string"
)
)
