Workflows

provision-application-load-balancer
Create an ALB, a target group, an HTTP listener, and register targets.
Chains createLoadBalancer, createTargetGroup, createListener, and registerTargets so a single run produces a fully wired, traffic-ready Application Load Balancer.
4 steps inputs: listenerPort, loadBalancerName, securityGroupId, subnetId, targetGroupName, targetId, targetPort, vpcId outputs: dnsName, listenerArn, loadBalancerArn, targetGroupArn
1
createLoadBalancer
Create an internet-facing Application Load Balancer in the supplied subnet and security group.
2
createTargetGroup
Create an HTTP target group in the same VPC with an HTTP health check on the root path.
3
createListener
Attach an HTTP listener whose default action forwards traffic to the new target group.
4
registerTargets
Register the initial target with the target group so the load balancer can begin routing traffic to it.

  title: Amazon Elastic Load Balancing Provision an Application Load Balancer
  summary: Stand up an Application Load Balancer with a target group, listener, and registered targets.
  description: >-
    The canonical end-to-end provisioning flow for an Application Load
    Balancer. It creates the load balancer across the supplied subnets,
    creates an HTTP target group in the same VPC, attaches an HTTP listener
    whose default action forwards to that target group, and finally registers
    the initial targets with the group. Each step spells out its request
    inline so the flow can be read and executed without opening the underlying
    OpenAPI description. Because the Elastic Load Balancing v2 API uses the AWS
    query protocol, every operation is a GET whose inputs are carried as query
    parameters rather than a request body.
