2. The action has four configuration tabs:

• Trigger – here you select the AWS integration, AWS region, and target application. The tab also contains four variables that you can use in other steps of the pipeline: AWS_PIPELINE_NAME, AWS_PIPELINE_VERSION, AWS_PIPELINE_EXECUTION_ID, and AWS_PIPELINE_EXECUTION_STATUS
• Variables – here you can view default and create your own variables if required
• Conditions – here you configure the trigger conditions for which the action will run
• Options – here you define the action's name and behavior on failure and timeout
