AddLFTagsToResource

Method	Path	Description
POST	/AddLFTagsToResource	Attaches one or more LF-tags to an existing resource.

AssumeDecoratedRoleWithSAML

Method	Path	Description
POST	/AssumeDecoratedRoleWithSAML	Allows a caller to assume an IAM role decorated as the SAML user specified in the SAML assertion included in the request. This decoration allows Lake Formation to enforce access policies against the SAML users and groups. This API operation requires SAML federation setup in the caller’s account as it can only be called with valid SAML assertions. Lake Formation does not scope down the permission of the assumed role. All permissions attached to the role via the SAML federation setup will be included in the role session. This decorated role is expected to access data in Amazon S3 by getting temporary access from Lake Formation which is authorized via the virtual API GetDataAccess. Therefore, all SAML roles that can be assumed via AssumeDecoratedRoleWithSAML must at a minimum include lakeformation:GetDataAccess in their role policies. A typical IAM policy attached to such a role would look as follows:

BatchGrantPermissions

Method	Path	Description
POST	/BatchGrantPermissions	Batch operation to grant permissions to the principal.

BatchRevokePermissions

Method	Path	Description
POST	/BatchRevokePermissions	Batch operation to revoke permissions from the principal.

CancelTransaction

Method	Path	Description
POST	/CancelTransaction	Attempts to cancel the specified transaction. Returns an exception if the transaction was previously committed.

CommitTransaction

Method	Path	Description
POST	/CommitTransaction	Attempts to commit the specified transaction. Returns an exception if the transaction was previously aborted. This API action is idempotent if called multiple times for the same transaction.

CreateDataCellsFilter

Method	Path	Description
POST	/CreateDataCellsFilter	Creates a data cell filter to allow one to grant access to certain columns on certain rows.

CreateLFTag

Method	Path	Description
POST	/CreateLFTag	Creates an LF-tag with the specified name and values.

CreateLakeFormationIdentityCenterConfiguration

Method	Path	Description
POST	/CreateLakeFormationIdentityCenterConfiguration	Creates an IAM Identity Center connection with Lake Formation to allow IAM Identity Center users and groups to access Data Catalog resources.

CreateLakeFormationOptIn

Method	Path	Description
POST	/CreateLakeFormationOptIn	Enforce Lake Formation permissions for the given databases, tables, and principals.

DeleteDataCellsFilter

Method	Path	Description
POST	/DeleteDataCellsFilter	Deletes a data cell filter.

DeleteLFTag

Method	Path	Description
POST	/DeleteLFTag	Deletes the specified LF-tag given a key name. If the input parameter tag key was not found, then the operation will throw an exception. When you delete an LF-tag, the LFTagPolicy attached to the LF-tag becomes invalid. If the deleted LF-tag was still assigned to any resource, the tag policy attach to the deleted LF-tag will no longer be applied to the resource.

DeleteLakeFormationIdentityCenterConfiguration

Method	Path	Description
POST	/DeleteLakeFormationIdentityCenterConfiguration	Deletes an IAM Identity Center connection with Lake Formation.

DeleteLakeFormationOptIn

Method	Path	Description
POST	/DeleteLakeFormationOptIn	Remove the Lake Formation permissions enforcement of the given databases, tables, and principals.

DeleteObjectsOnCancel

Method	Path	Description
POST	/DeleteObjectsOnCancel	For a specific governed table, provides a list of Amazon S3 objects that will be written during the current transaction and that can be automatically deleted if the transaction is canceled. Without this call, no Amazon S3 objects are automatically deleted when a transaction cancels. The Glue ETL library function write_dynamic_frame.from_catalog() includes an option to automatically call DeleteObjectsOnCancel before writes. For more information, see Rolling Back Amazon S3 Writes.

DeregisterResource

Method	Path	Description
POST	/DeregisterResource	Deregisters the resource as managed by the Data Catalog. When you deregister a path, Lake Formation removes the path from the inline policy attached to your service-linked role.

DescribeLakeFormationIdentityCenterConfiguration

Method	Path	Description
POST	/DescribeLakeFormationIdentityCenterConfiguration	Retrieves the instance ARN and application ARN for the connection.

DescribeResource

Method	Path	Description
POST	/DescribeResource	Retrieves the current data access role for the given resource registered in Lake Formation.

GetLFTag

Method	Path	Description
POST	/GetLFTag	Returns an LF-tag definition.

GetQueryState

Method	Path	Description
POST	/GetQueryState	Returns the state of a query previously submitted. Clients are expected to poll GetQueryState to monitor the current state of the planning before retrieving the work units. A query state is only visible to the principal that made the initial call to StartQueryPlanning.

GetQueryStatistics

Method	Path	Description
POST	/GetQueryStatistics	Retrieves statistics on the planning and execution of a query.

GetResourceLFTags

Method	Path	Description
POST	/GetResourceLFTags	Returns the LF-tags applied to a resource.

GetTableObjects

Method	Path	Description
POST	/GetTableObjects	Returns the set of Amazon S3 objects that make up the specified governed table. A transaction ID or timestamp can be specified for time-travel queries.

GetTemporaryGluePartitionCredentials

Method	Path	Description
POST	/GetTemporaryGluePartitionCredentials	This API is identical to GetTemporaryTableCredentials except that this is used when the target Data Catalog resource is of type Partition. Lake Formation restricts the permission of the vended credentials with the same scope down policy which restricts access to a single Amazon S3 prefix.

GetTemporaryGlueTableCredentials

Method	Path	Description
POST	/GetTemporaryGlueTableCredentials	Allows a caller in a secure environment to assume a role with permission to access Amazon S3. In order to vend such credentials, Lake Formation assumes the role associated with a registered location, for example an Amazon S3 bucket, with a scope down policy which restricts the access to a single prefix.

GetWorkUnitResults

Method	Path	Description
POST	/GetWorkUnitResults	Returns the work units resulting from the query. Work units can be executed in any order and in parallel.

GetWorkUnits

Method	Path	Description
POST	/GetWorkUnits	Retrieves the work units generated by the StartQueryPlanning operation.

GrantPermissions

Method	Path	Description
POST	/GrantPermissions	Grants permissions to the principal to access metadata in the Data Catalog and data organized in underlying data storage such as Amazon S3. For information about permissions, see Security and Access Control to Metadata and Data.

ListDataCellsFilter

Method	Path	Description
POST	/ListDataCellsFilter	Lists all the data cell filters on a table.

ListLFTags

Method	Path	Description
POST	/ListLFTags	Lists LF-tags that the requester has permission to view.

ListLakeFormationOptIns

Method	Path	Description
POST	/ListLakeFormationOptIns	Retrieve the current list of resources and principals that are opt in to enforce Lake Formation permissions.

ListPermissions

Method	Path	Description
POST	/ListPermissions	Returns a list of the principal permissions on the resource, filtered by the permissions of the caller. For example, if you are granted an ALTER permission, you are able to see only the principal permissions for ALTER. This operation returns only those permissions that have been explicitly granted. For information about permissions, see Security and Access Control to Metadata and Data.

ListResources

Method	Path	Description
POST	/ListResources	Lists the resources registered to be managed by the Data Catalog.

ListTableStorageOptimizers

Method	Path	Description
POST	/ListTableStorageOptimizers	Returns the configuration of all storage optimizers associated with a specified table.

ListTransactions

Method	Path	Description
POST	/ListTransactions	Returns metadata about transactions and their status. To prevent the response from growing indefinitely, only uncommitted transactions and those available for time-travel queries are returned. This operation can help you identify uncommitted transactions or to get information about transactions.

PutDataLakeSettings

Method	Path	Description
POST	/PutDataLakeSettings	Sets the list of data lake administrators who have admin privileges on all resources managed by Lake Formation. For more information on admin privileges, see Granting Lake Formation Permissions. This API replaces the current list of data lake admins with the new list being passed. To add an admin, fetch the current list and add the new admin to that list and pass that list in this API.

RegisterResource

Method	Path	Description
POST	/RegisterResource	Registers the resource as managed by the Data Catalog. To add or update data, Lake Formation needs read/write access to the chosen Amazon S3 path. Choose a role that you know has permission to do this, or choose the AWSServiceRoleForLakeFormationDataAccess service-linked role. When you register the first Amazon S3 path, the service-linked role and a new inline policy are created on your behalf. Lake Formation adds the first path to the inline policy and attaches it to the service-linked role. When you register subsequent paths, Lake Formation adds the path to the existing policy. The following request registers a new location and gives Lake Formation permission to use the service-linked role to access that location. ResourceArn = arn:aws:s3:::my-bucket UseServiceLinkedRole = true If UseServiceLinkedRole is not set to true, you must provide or set the RoleArn: arn:aws:iam::12345:role/my-data-access-role

RemoveLFTagsFromResource

Method	Path	Description
POST	/RemoveLFTagsFromResource	Removes an LF-tag from the resource. Only database, table, or tableWithColumns resource are allowed. To tag columns, use the column inclusion list in tableWithColumns to specify column input.

RevokePermissions

Method	Path	Description
POST	/RevokePermissions	Revokes permissions to the principal to access metadata in the Data Catalog and data organized in underlying data storage such as Amazon S3.

SearchDatabasesByLFTags

Method	Path	Description
POST	/SearchDatabasesByLFTags	This operation allows a search on DATABASE resources by TagCondition. This operation is used by admins who want to grant user permissions on certain TagConditions. Before making a grant, the admin can use SearchDatabasesByTags to find all resources where the given TagConditions are valid to verify whether the returned resources can be shared.

SearchTablesByLFTags

Method	Path	Description
POST	/SearchTablesByLFTags	This operation allows a search on TABLE resources by LFTags. This will be used by admins who want to grant user permissions on certain LF-tags. Before making a grant, the admin can use SearchTablesByLFTags to find all resources where the given LFTags are valid to verify whether the returned resources can be shared.

StartQueryPlanning

Method	Path	Description
POST	/StartQueryPlanning	Submits a request to process a query statement. This operation generates work units that can be retrieved with the GetWorkUnits operation as soon as the query state is WORKUNITS_AVAILABLE or FINISHED.

StartTransaction

Method	Path	Description
POST	/StartTransaction	Starts a new transaction and returns its transaction ID. Transaction IDs are opaque objects that you can use to identify a transaction.

UpdateDataCellsFilter

Method	Path	Description
POST	/UpdateDataCellsFilter	Updates a data cell filter.

UpdateLFTag

Method	Path	Description
POST	/UpdateLFTag	Updates the list of possible values for the specified LF-tag key. If the LF-tag does not exist, the operation throws an EntityNotFoundException. The values in the delete key values will be deleted from list of possible values. If any value in the delete key values is attached to a resource, then API errors out with a 400 Exception - "Update not allowed". Untag the attribute before deleting the LF-tag key's value.
