Identifying a shared Amazon Cloud Map namespace - Amazon Cloud Map
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Identifying a shared Amazon Cloud Map namespace

Owners and consumers can identify shared namespaces using the Amazon Cloud Map console and Amazon CLI. The namespace owner can be identified by using the ResourceOwner property. The Amazon Web Services account that creates a service or registers an instance in the shared namespace can be identified by using the CreatedByAccount property.

Amazon Cloud Map console
To identify a shared namespace using the Amazon Cloud Map console

  1. Sign in to the Amazon Web Services Management Console and open the Amazon Cloud Map console at https://console.amazonaws.cn/cloudmap/.

  2. On the Namespaces page, under Resource Owner, you can find the ID of the Amazon Web Services account that owns the namespace.

  3. Choose the Domain name of the namespace you want to identify.

  4. On the Namespace: namespace-name page, in the Namespace information section, under Resource owner, you can find the ID of the Amazon Web Services account that owns the namespace.

Amazon CLI

To identify a shared namespace using the Amazon CLI, use the list-namespaces command. The command returns the namespaces that you own and namespaces that are shared with you. The ResourceOwner field shows the Amazon account ID of the namespace owner.

The following list-namespaces call is made by account 111122223333.
