All constructs moved to aws-cdk-lib/aws-scheduler-targets.

Amazon EventBridge Scheduler is a feature from Amazon EventBridge that allows you to create, run, and manage scheduled tasks at scale. With EventBridge Scheduler, you can schedule millions of one-time or recurring tasks across various AWS services without provisioning or managing underlying infrastructure.

This library contains integration classes for Amazon EventBridge Scheduler to call any number of supported AWS Services.

The following targets are supported:

1. targets.LambdaInvoke: Invoke an AWS Lambda function
2. targets.StepFunctionsStartExecution: Start an AWS Step Function
3. targets.CodeBuildStartBuild: Start a CodeBuild job
4. targets.SqsSendMessage: Send a Message to an Amazon SQS Queue
5. targets.SnsPublish: Publish messages to an Amazon SNS topic
6. targets.EventBridgePutEvents: Put Events on EventBridge
7. targets.InspectorStartAssessmentRun: Start an Amazon Inspector assessment run
8. targets.KinesisStreamPutRecord: Put a record to an Amazon Kinesis Data Stream
9. targets.FirehosePutRecord: Put a record to an Amazon Data Firehose
10. targets.CodePipelineStartPipelineExecution: Start a CodePipeline execution
11. targets.SageMakerStartPipelineExecution: Start a SageMaker pipeline execution
12. targets.EcsRunTask: Start a new ECS task
13. targets.Universal: Invoke a wider set of AWS API

Invoke a Lambda function

Use the LambdaInvoke target to invoke a lambda function.

The code snippet below creates an event rule with a Lambda function as a target called every hour by EventBridge Scheduler with a custom payload. You can optionally attach a dead letter queue.

import aws_cdk.aws_lambda as lambda_


fn = lambda_.Function(self, "MyFunc",
    runtime=lambda_.Runtime.NODEJS_LATEST,
    handler="index.handler",
    code=lambda_.Code.from_inline("exports.handler = handler.toString()")
)

dlq = sqs.Queue(self, "DLQ",
    queue_name="MyDLQ"
)

target = targets.LambdaInvoke(fn,
    dead_letter_queue=dlq,
    max_event_age=Duration.minutes(1),
    retry_attempts=3,
    input=ScheduleTargetInput.from_object({
        "payload": "useful"
    })
)

schedule = Schedule(self, "Schedule",
    schedule=ScheduleExpression.rate(Duration.hours(1)),
    target=target
)

Start an AWS Step Function

Use the StepFunctionsStartExecution target to start a new execution on a StepFunction.

The code snippet below creates an event rule with a Step Function as a target called every hour by EventBridge Scheduler with a custom payload.

    "Name": "MyParameter",
    "Value": "🌥️"
}

put_parameter_step = tasks.CallAwsService(self, "PutParameter",
    service="ssm",
    action="putParameter",
    iam_resources=["*"],
    parameters={
        "Name.$": "$.Name",

Use the SqsSendMessage target to send a message to an SQS Queue.

The code snippet below creates an event rule with an SQS Queue as a target called every hour by EventBridge Scheduler with a custom payload.

Contains the messageGroupId to use when the target is a FIFO queue. If you specify a FIFO queue as a target, the queue must have content-based deduplication enabled.

payload = "test"
message_group_id = "id"
queue = sqs.Queue(self, "MyQueue",
    fifo=True,
    content_based_deduplication=True
)

target = targets.SqsSendMessage(queue,
    input=ScheduleTargetInput.from_text(payload),
    message_group_id=message_group_id

topic = sns.Topic(self, "Topic")

payload = {
    "message": "Hello scheduler!"
}

target = targets.SnsPublish(topic,
    input=ScheduleTargetInput.from_object(payload)

    target=targets.FirehosePutRecord(delivery_stream,
        input=ScheduleTargetInput.from_object(payload)
    )
)

Start a CodePipeline execution

Use the CodePipelineStartPipelineExecution target to start a new execution for a CodePipeline pipeline.

The code snippet below creates an event rule with a CodePipeline pipeline as the target which is called every hour by EventBridge Scheduler.

import aws_cdk.aws_codepipeline as codepipeline

# pipeline: codepipeline.Pipeline


Schedule(self, "Schedule",
    schedule=ScheduleExpression.rate(Duration.minutes(60)),
    target=targets.CodePipelineStartPipelineExecution(pipeline)
)

Start a SageMaker pipeline execution

    target=targets.SageMakerStartPipelineExecution(pipeline,
        pipeline_parameter_list=[targets.SageMakerPipelineParameter(
            name="parameter-name",
            value="parameter-value"
        )]
    )
)

Schedule an ECS task run

Use the EcsRunTask target to schedule an ECS task run for a cluster.

The code snippet below creates an event rule with a Fargate task definition and cluster as the target which is called every hour by EventBridge Scheduler.

import aws_cdk.aws_ecs as ecs

# cluster: ecs.ICluster
# task_definition: ecs.FargateTaskDefinition


Schedule(self, "Schedule",
    schedule=ScheduleExpression.rate(cdk.Duration.minutes(60)),
    target=targets.EcsRunFargateTask(cluster,
        task_definition=task_definition
    )
)

The code snippet below creates an event rule with a EC2 task definition and cluster as the target which is called every hour by EventBridge Scheduler.

import aws_cdk.aws_ecs as ecs

# cluster: ecs.ICluster
# task_definition: ecs.Ec2TaskDefinition


Schedule(self, "Schedule",
    schedule=ScheduleExpression.rate(cdk.Duration.minutes(60)),
    target=targets.EcsRunEc2Task(cluster,
        task_definition=task_definition
    )
)

Invoke a wider set of AWS API

Use the Universal target to invoke AWS API. See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/scheduler/latest/UserGuide/managing-targets-universal.html

The code snippet below creates an event rule with AWS API as the target which is called at midnight every day by EventBridge Scheduler.

Schedule(self, "Schedule",
    schedule=ScheduleExpression.cron(
        minute="0",
        hour="0"
    ),
    target=targets.Universal(
        service="rds",
        action="stopDBCluster",
        input=ScheduleTargetInput.from_object({
            "DbClusterIdentifier": "my-db"
        })
    )
)

The service must be in lowercase and the action must be in camelCase.

By default, an IAM policy for the Scheduler is extracted from the API call. The action in the policy is constructed using the service and action prop. Re-using the example above, the action will be rds:stopDBCluster. Note that not all IAM actions follow the same pattern. In such scenario, please use the policyStatements prop to override the policy:

Schedule(self, "Schedule",
    schedule=ScheduleExpression.rate(Duration.minutes(60)),
    target=targets.Universal(
        service="sqs",
        action="sendMessage",
        policy_statements=[
            iam.PolicyStatement(
                actions=["sqs:SendMessage"],
                resources=["arn:aws:sqs:us-east-1:123456789012:my_queue"]
            ),
            iam.PolicyStatement(
                actions=["kms:Decrypt", "kms:GenerateDataKey*"],
                resources=["arn:aws:kms:us-east-1:123456789012:key/0987dcba-09fe-87dc-65ba-ab0987654321"]
            )
        ]
    )
)

Note: The default policy uses * in the resources field as CDK does not have a straight forward way to auto-discover the resources permission required. It is recommended that you scope the field down to specific resources to have a better security posture.
