ApiGateway Log Retention

Control the retention of your ApiGateway access logs and execution logs.

Installation

From your target serverless project, run:

npm install serverless-apigateway-log-retention

Add the plugin to your serverless.yml:

plugins:
  - serverless-apigateway-log-retention

Configuration

Configuration happens 'globally' via custom.apigatewayLogRetention.

The plugin uses AWS profile configured under provider.profile or defaults to AWS credentials set in the environment.

If you can't directly connect to the internet, the plugin supports proxy which you can set via any of the following environment variables:

- HTTP_PROXY
- HTTPS_PROXY
- FTP_PROXY
- WSS_PROXY
- WS_PROXY

By default the plugin assumes the API name format to be [STAGE]-[SERVICE_NAME]. If your API name format is [SERVICE_NAME]-[STAGE], set provider.apiGateway.shouldStartNameWithService to true like so:

provider:
  name: aws
  apigateway:
    shouldStartNameWithService: true

If you want to use a custom API name, set it via provider.apiName like so:

provider:
  name: aws
  apiName: 'my-custom-api-name'

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PLUGIN REQUIRES THE FOLLOWING AWS PERMISSIONS:

CloudWatch Logs

  • putRetentionPolicy
  • deleteRetentionPolicy

ApiGateway

  • getRestApis
  • getStage
