AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional — Question 601

AWS CloudFormation ______ are special actions you use in your template to assign values to properties that are not available until runtime.

Answer options

• A. intrinsic functions
• B. properties declarations
• C. output functions
• D. conditions declarations

Correct answer: A

Explanation

AWS CloudFormation intrinsic functions are built-in actions used to assign values to properties that are not known until runtime, such as resource IDs or IP addresses. Other options like property declarations, output functions, and condition declarations do not dynamically resolve and assign runtime values to resource properties.
