    • ChannelArn (string) --

      The ARN of an channel returned by a GetChannel request.

    • Name (string) --

      The name of the CloudTrail channel. For service-linked channels, the name is aws-service-channel/service-name/custom-suffix where service-name represents the name of the Amazon Web Services service that created the channel and custom-suffix represents the suffix generated by the Amazon Web Services service.

    • Source (string) --

      The source for the CloudTrail channel.

        Specifies whether the channel applies to a single region or to all regions.

      • AdvancedEventSelectors (list) --

        The advanced event selectors that are configured for the channel.

        • (dict) --

          Advanced event selectors let you create fine-grained selectors for the following CloudTrail event record fields.

          • eventName

          • eventCategory

          • resources.type

              • Field (string) --

                A field in a CloudTrail event record on which to filter events to be logged. For event data stores for Config configuration items, Audit Manager evidence, or non-Amazon Web Services events, the field is used only for selecting events as filtering is not supported.

                For CloudTrail event records, supported fields include readOnly , eventCategory , eventSource (for management events), eventName , resources.type , and resources.ARN .

                For event data stores for Config configuration items, Audit Manager evidence, or non-Amazon Web Services events, the only supported field is eventCategory .

                • **readOnly ** - Optional. Can be set to Equals a value of true or false . If you do not add this field, CloudTrail logs both read and write events. A value of true logs only read events. A value of false logs only write events.

                • **eventSource ** - For filtering management events only. This can be set only to NotEquals kms.amazonaws.com .

                • **eventName ** - Can use any operator. You can use it to filter in or filter out any data event logged to CloudTrail, such as PutBucket or GetSnapshotBlock . You can have multiple values for this field, separated by commas.

                • **eventCategory ** - This is required and must be set to Equals .

                  • For CloudTrail event records, the value must be Management or Data .

                  • For Config configuration items, the value must be ConfigurationItem .

                  • For Audit Manager evidence, the value must be Evidence .

                  • For non-Amazon Web Services events, the value must be ActivityAuditLog .

                • **resources.type ** - This field is required for CloudTrail data events. resources.type can only use the Equals operator, and the value can be one of the following:

                  • AWS::CloudTrail::Channel

                  • AWS::S3::Object

                  • AWS::Lambda::Function

                  • AWS::DynamoDB::Table

                  • AWS::S3Outposts::Object

                  • AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node

                  • AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint

                  • AWS::EC2::Snapshot

                  • AWS::S3::AccessPoint

                  • AWS::SageMaker::FeatureGroup

                You can have only one resources.type field per selector. To log data events on more than one resource type, add another selector.

                • **resources.ARN ** - You can use any operator with resources.ARN , but if you use Equals or NotEquals , the value must exactly match the ARN of a valid resource of the type you've specified in the template as the value of resources.type. For example, if resources.type equals AWS::S3::Object , the ARN must be in one of the following formats. To log all data events for all objects in a specific S3 bucket, use the StartsWith operator, and include only the bucket ARN as the matching value. The trailing slash is intentional; do not exclude it. Replace the text between less than and greater than symbols (<>) with resource-specific information.

                  • arn:<partition>:s3:::<bucket_name>/

                  • arn:<partition>:s3:::<bucket_name>/<object_path>/

                When resources.type equals AWS::S3::AccessPoint , and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals , the ARN must be in one of the following formats. To log events on all objects in an S3 access point, we recommend that you use only the access point ARN, don’t include the object path, and use the StartsWith or NotStartsWith operators.

                • arn:<partition>:s3:<region>:<account_ID>:accesspoint/<access_point_name>

                • arn:<partition>:s3:<region>:<account_ID>:accesspoint/<access_point_name>/object/<object_path>

                • arn:<partition>:lambda:<region>:<account_ID>:function:<function_name>

                When resources.type equals AWS::DynamoDB::Table , and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals , the ARN must be in the following format:

                • arn:<partition>:dynamodb:<region>:<account_ID>:table/<table_name>

                When resources.type equals AWS::CloudTrail::Channel , and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals , the ARN must be in the following format:

                • arn:<partition>:cloudtrail:<region>:<account_ID>:channel/<channel_UUID>

                When resources.type equals AWS::S3Outposts::Object , and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals , the ARN must be in the following format:

                • arn:<partition>:s3-outposts:<region>:<account_ID>:<object_path>

                When resources.type equals AWS::ManagedBlockchain::Node , and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals , the ARN must be in the following format:

                • arn:<partition>:managedblockchain:<region>:<account_ID>:nodes/<node_ID>

                When resources.type equals AWS::S3ObjectLambda::AccessPoint , and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals , the ARN must be in the following format:

                • arn:<partition>:s3-object-lambda:<region>:<account_ID>:accesspoint/<access_point_name>

                When resources.type equals AWS::EC2::Snapshot , and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals , the ARN must be in the following format:

                • arn:<partition>:ec2:<region>::snapshot/<snapshot_ID>

                When resources.type equals AWS::DynamoDB::Stream , and the operator is set to Equals or NotEquals , the ARN must be in the following format:
