NAME

Paws::WAFV2::RegexPatternSetReferenceStatement

USAGE

This class represents one of two things:

Arguments in a call to a service

Use the attributes of this class as arguments to methods. You shouldn't make instances of this class. Each attribute should be used as a named argument in the calls that expect this type of object.

As an example, if Att1 is expected to be a Paws::WAFV2::RegexPatternSetReferenceStatement object:

  $service_obj->Method(Att1 => { ARN => $value, ..., TextTransformations => $value  });

Results returned from an API call

Use accessors for each attribute. If Att1 is expected to be an Paws::WAFV2::RegexPatternSetReferenceStatement object:

  $result = $service_obj->Method(...);
  $result->Att1->ARN

DESCRIPTION

A rule statement used to search web request components for matches with regular expressions. To use this, create a RegexPatternSet that specifies the expressions that you want to detect, then use the ARN of that set in this statement. A web request matches the pattern set rule statement if the request component matches any of the patterns in the set. To create a regex pattern set, see CreateRegexPatternSet.

Each regex pattern set rule statement references a regex pattern set. You create and maintain the set independent of your rules. This allows you to use the single set in multiple rules. When you update the referenced set, WAF automatically updates all rules that reference it.

ATTRIBUTES

REQUIRED ARN => Str

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the RegexPatternSet that this statement references.

REQUIRED FieldToMatch => Paws::WAFV2::FieldToMatch

The part of a web request that you want WAF to inspect. For more information, see FieldToMatch.

REQUIRED TextTransformations => ArrayRef[Paws::WAFV2::TextTransformation]

Text transformations eliminate some of the unusual formatting that attackers use in web requests in an effort to bypass detection. If you specify one or more transformations in a rule statement, WAF performs all transformations on the content of the request component identified by "FieldToMatch", starting from the lowest priority setting, before inspecting the content for a match.
