describe-events-for-organization

Description

Returns information about events across your organization in Organizations. You can use the``filters`` parameter to specify the events that you want to return. Events are returned in a summary form and don't include the affected accounts, detailed description, any additional metadata that depends on the event type, or any affected resources. To retrieve that information, use the following operations:

If you don't specify a filter , the DescribeEventsForOrganizations returns all events across your organization. Results are sorted by lastModifiedTime , starting with the most recent event.

For more information about the different types of Health events, see Event .

Before you can call this operation, you must first enable Health to work with Organizations. To do this, call the EnableHealthServiceAccessForOrganization operation from your organization's management account.

Note

This API operation uses pagination. Specify the nextToken parameter in the next request to return more results.

See also: AWS API Documentation

describe-events-for-organization is a paginated operation. Multiple API calls may be issued in order to retrieve the entire data set of results. You can disable pagination by providing the --no-paginate argument. When using --output text and the --query argument on a paginated response, the --query argument must extract data from the results of the following query expressions: events

JSON Syntax:

{
  "eventTypeCodes": ["string", ...],
  "awsAccountIds": ["string", ...],
  "services": ["string", ...],
  "regions": ["string", ...],
  "startTime": {
    "from": timestamp,
    "to": timestamp
  },

    "from": timestamp,
    "to": timestamp

  "eventStatusCodes": ["open"|"closed"|"upcoming", ...]
}

--locale (string)

The locale (language) to return information in. English (en) is the default and the only supported value at this time.

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--starting-token (string)

A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previously truncated response.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--page-size (integer)

The size of each page to get in the AWS service call. This does not affect the number of items returned in the command's output. Setting a smaller page size results in more calls to the AWS service, retrieving fewer items in each call. This can help prevent the AWS service calls from timing out.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--max-items (integer)

The total number of items to return in the command's output. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified, a NextToken is provided in the command's output. To resume pagination, provide the NextToken value in the starting-token argument of a subsequent command. Do not use the NextToken response element directly outside of the AWS CLI.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command's default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on
  • off
  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

Output

events -> (list)

The events that match the specified filter criteria.

(structure)

Summary information about an event, returned by the DescribeEventsForOrganization operation.

arn -> (string)

The unique identifier for the event. The event ARN has the ``arn:aws:health:event-region ::event/SERVICE /EVENT_TYPE_CODE /EVENT_TYPE_PLUS_ID `` format.

For example, an event ARN might look like the following:

arn:aws:health:us-east-1::event/EC2/EC2_INSTANCE_RETIREMENT_SCHEDULED/EC2_INSTANCE_RETIREMENT_SCHEDULED_ABC123-DEF456

service -> (string)

The Amazon Web Service that is affected by the event, such as EC2 and RDS.

eventTypeCode -> (string)

The unique identifier for the event type. The format is AWS_SERVICE_DESCRIPTION . For example, AWS_EC2_SYSTEM_MAINTENANCE_EVENT .

eventTypeCategory -> (string)

A list of event type category codes. Possible values are issue , accountNotification , or scheduledChange . Currently, the investigation value isn't supported at this time.

eventScopeCode -> (string)

This parameter specifies if the Health event is a public Amazon Web Service event or an account-specific event.

  • If the eventScopeCode value is PUBLIC , then the affectedAccounts value is always empty.
  • If the eventScopeCode value is ACCOUNT_SPECIFIC , then the affectedAccounts value lists the affected Amazon Web Services accounts in your organization. For example, if an event affects a service such as Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud and you have Amazon Web Services accounts that use that service, those account IDs appear in the response.
  • If the eventScopeCode value is NONE , then the eventArn that you specified in the request is invalid or doesn't exist.

region -> (string)

The Amazon Web Services Region name of the event.

startTime -> (timestamp)

The date and time that the event began.

endTime -> (timestamp)

The date and time that the event ended.

lastUpdatedTime -> (timestamp)

The most recent date and time that the event was updated.

statusCode -> (string)

The most recent status of the event. Possible values are open , closed , and upcoming .

nextToken -> (string)

If the results of a search are large, only a portion of the results are returned, and a nextToken pagination token is returned in the response. To retrieve the next batch of results, reissue the search request and include the returned token. When all results have been returned, the response does not contain a pagination token value.
