location

Information about the location of the source code to be built. Valid values include:

• For source code settings that are specified in the source action of a pipeline in CodePipeline, location should not be specified. If it is specified, CodePipeline ignores it. This is because CodePipeline uses the settings in a pipeline's source action instead of this value.

• For source code in an CodeCommit repository, the HTTPS clone URL to the repository that contains the source code and the buildspec file (for example, https://git-codecommit.<region-ID>.amazonaws.com/v1/repos/<repo-name>).

• For source code in an Amazon S3 input bucket, one of the following.

  • The path to the ZIP file that contains the source code (for example, <bucket-name>/<path>/<object-name>.zip).

  • The path to the folder that contains the source code (for example, <bucket-name>/<path-to-source-code>/<folder>/).

• For source code in a GitHub repository, the HTTPS clone URL to the repository that contains the source and the buildspec file. You must connect your Amazon Web Services account to your GitHub account. Use the CodeBuild console to start creating a build project. When you use the console to connect (or reconnect) with GitHub, on the GitHub Authorize application page, for Organization access, choose Request access next to each repository you want to allow CodeBuild to have access to, and then choose Authorize application. (After you have connected to your GitHub account, you do not need to finish creating the build project. You can leave the CodeBuild console.) To instruct CodeBuild to use this connection, in the source object, set the auth object's type value to OAUTH.

• For source code in an GitLab or self-managed GitLab repository, the HTTPS clone URL to the repository that contains the source and the buildspec file. You must connect your Amazon Web Services account to your GitLab account. Use the CodeBuild console to start creating a build project. When you use the console to connect (or reconnect) with GitLab, on the Connections Authorize application page, choose Authorize. Then on the CodeConnections Create GitLab connection page, choose Connect to GitLab. (After you have connected to your GitLab account, you do not need to finish creating the build project. You can leave the CodeBuild console.) To instruct CodeBuild to override the default connection and use this connection instead, set the auth object's type value to CODECONNECTIONS in the source object.

• For source code in a Bitbucket repository, the HTTPS clone URL to the repository that contains the source and the buildspec file. You must connect your Amazon Web Services account to your Bitbucket account. Use the CodeBuild console to start creating a build project. When you use the console to connect (or reconnect) with Bitbucket, on the Bitbucket Confirm access to your account page, choose Grant access. (After you have connected to your Bitbucket account, you do not need to finish creating the build project. You can leave the CodeBuild console.) To instruct CodeBuild to use this connection, in the source object, set the auth object's type value to OAUTH.

If you specify CODEPIPELINE for the Type property, don't specify this property. For all of the other types, you must specify Location.
