Configuration

Application Management

While useful for end to end automation and test scenarios, it is quite common to create CodeDeploy Applications e.g. via the AWS Management Console upfront and only manage Deployment Groups and Deployments from your build and deployment projects.

To configure an AWS CodeDeploy Application task:

Navigate to the Tasks configuration tab for the job (this will be the default job if creating a new plan).
Click the name of an existing AWS CodeDeploy Application task, or click Add Task and then AWS CodeDeploy Application to create a new task.

Complete the following settings:

Task Description	(Optional) Identify the purpose of the task.
Disable this task	Check, or clear, to selectively run this task.
Action	Each task supports one or more actions depending on the target AWS resource. Select the desired action and configure the action specific parameters below.
Region	Select the desired AWS Region. Alternatively, select [Use region variable ...] to supply the region dynamically via Bamboo variables (needs to be a region code such as `ap-southeast-2`) - refer to How to parametrize the AWS region via a Bamboo variable for details.
...	Configure task/action specific parameters, see below ...
AWS Security Credentials
Source	Select the source for the required AWS Security Credentials - can be either Inline, an IAM Role for EC2 or a shared Identity Federation for AWS Connector.
Connector	(Conditional) Select the shared Identity Federation for AWS Connector. Alternatively, select [Use connector variable ...] to supply the connector dynamically via Bamboo variables (needs to be a connector id such as `f24e81bc-7aff-42db-86a2-7cf82e24d871`) - refer to How to parametrize the AWS connector via a Bamboo variable for details.

Variables

All tasks support Bamboo Variable Substitution/Definition - this task's actions generate variables as follows:

A task's generated variables might get amended with respective AWS API additions over time - a live build log will always provide the most current variable shape accordingly
