DescribeServices
Returns the current list of Amazon services and a list of service categories for each service. You then use service names and categories in your CreateCase requests. Each Amazon service has its own set of categories.
The service codes and category codes correspond to the values that appear in the
Service and Category lists on the Amazon Web Services Support Center Create CaseDescribeServices
operation. Always use the service codes and categories
that the DescribeServices
operation returns, so that you have the most
recent set of service and category codes.
