AWS STS session token for use with temporary credentials. See the AWS documentation for more information about access tokens https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-sec-cred-types.html#access-keys-and-secret-access-keys. The The security_token and profile options are mutually exclusive. Aliases aws_session_token and session_token were added in release 3.2.0, with the parameter being renamed from security_token to session_token in release 6.0.0.

Create or delete Lambda function. Choices:
|
|
A dictionary representing the tags to be applied to the resource. If the tags parameter is not set then tags will not be modified. |
|
The function maximum execution time in seconds after which Lambda should terminate the function. Default: |
|
Set mode to ‘Active’ to sample and trace incoming requests with AWS X-Ray. Turned off (set to ‘PassThrough’) by default. Choices:
|
|
When set to Setting validate_certs=false is strongly discouraged, as an alternative, consider setting aws_ca_bundle instead. Choices:
|
|
List of VPC security group IDs to associate with the Lambda function. Required when vpc_subnet_ids is used. |
|
List of subnet IDs to run Lambda function in. Use this option if you need to access resources in your VPC. Leave empty if you don’t want to run the function in a VPC. If set, vpc_security_group_ids must also be set. |
|
A .zip file containing your deployment package If state=present then either zip_file or s3_bucket must be present. |
Notes
Note
Caution: For modules, environment variables and configuration files are read from the Ansible ‘host’ context and not the ‘controller’ context. As such, files may need to be explicitly copied to the ‘host’. For lookup and connection plugins, environment variables and configuration files are read from the Ansible ‘controller’ context and not the ‘host’ context.
The AWS SDK (boto3) that Ansible uses may also read defaults for credentials and other settings, such as the region, from its configuration files in the Ansible ‘host’ context (typically
~/.aws/credentials). See https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/guide/credentials.html for more information.
