Using Tasks for AWS

Getting started

(Optional) Ensure there is at least one AWS Connector with System scope available – refer to Providing AWS Security Credentials for details.
- While Tasks for AWS still works without Identity Federation for AWS (Bamboo), using shared AWS Connectors is highly recommended due to the implied organizational and security benefits.
  
  No charge
  Usage of Identity Federation for AWS (Bamboo) is free for Tasks for AWS licensees, see Do I need an Identity Federation for AWS license when using it from another Utoolity app like Automation with AWS or Tasks for AWS? for details.
(Optional) Decide whether and how you want to maintain your task configuration as code – refer to Providing task configuration as code for details.
Start building and deploying with the available tasks.

See Using the AWS OpsWorks Deployment task in Bamboo for details.

AWS Security Token Service (STS)

AWS Credentials Variables

Provide temporary AWS Security Credentials as Bamboo variables for use in tasks and tools not integrated with Identity Federation for AWS, for example the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI).

See Using the AWS Credentials Variables task in Bamboo for details.

This task is provided by Identity Federation for AWS (Bamboo), which is bundled and free for Tasks for AWS licensees, see the Licensing & Purchasing FAQ for details.

AWS Systems Manager (SSM)

AWS Systems Manager Parameter

Put, get or delete Systems Manager parameters.

See Using the AWS Systems Manager Parameter task in Bamboo for details.

The AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store also support retrieving secrets from AWS Secrets Manager!

AWS Step Functions

AWS Step Functions State Machine

Create or delete Step Functions state machines, and start or stop Step Functions state machine executions.

See Using the AWS Step Functions State Machine task in Bamboo for details.

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2)

Amazon EBS Snapshot

Create, delete or backup snapshots of Elastic Block Store volumes; in particular, the Task provides backup management with retention handling and backup set correlation.

See Using the Amazon EBS Snapshot task in Bamboo for details.

Amazon EC2 Image

Create, delete or backup images of EBS backed Elastic Compute Cloud instances; in particular, the Task provides backup management with retention handling and backup set correlation.

See Using the Amazon EC2 Image task in Bamboo for details.

Amazon EC2 Instance

Start, stop or reboot provisioned Elastic Compute Cloud instances on demand, e.g. only when needed by the build itself (development) or at specific times of the day (operations).

See Using the Amazon EC2 Instance task in Bamboo for details.

Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR)

Amazon ECR Credentials Variables

Provide temporary Amazon ECR authentication credentials as Bamboo variables for use in tasks and tools not integrated with Identity Federation for AWS, for example the Bamboo Docker task.

See Using the Amazon ECR Credentials Variables task in Bamboo for details.

This task is provided by Identity Federation for AWS (Bamboo), which is bundled and free for Tasks for AWS licensees, see the Licensing & Purchasing FAQ for details.

Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)

Deploying to Amazon ECS provides an overview for continuous delivery/deployment workflows based on the following tasks:

Amazon ECS Cluster

Amazon ECS Task Definition

Register ECS task definitions.

See Using the Amazon ECS Task Definition task in Bamboo for details.

Amazon S3

Amazon S3 Object

Upload, download, delete or copy Structured Storage Service objects (files); in particular you can upload your Bamboo job's build artifacts or select local files and directories (optionally via Ant Patterns) - when addressing S3 objects (files), it matches those by key prefix, which allows to operate on multiple objects at once (virtual directories resp. folder hierarchies).

See Using the Amazon S3 Object task in Bamboo for details.

Using Bamboo variables

All tasks support configuration via Bamboo variables: variables can be substituted in task parameters for AWS resource management, and variables are automatically defined from AWS resources affected by a task – refer to Injecting task configuration via Bamboo variables for details.
