(dict) --
A complex type for endpoints.
EndpointId (string) --

Weight (integer) --
The weight associated with the endpoint. When you add weights to endpoints, you configure AWS Global Accelerator to route traffic based on proportions that you specify. For example, you might specify endpoint weights of 4, 5, 5, and 6 (sum=20). The result is that 4/20 of your traffic, on average, is routed to the first endpoint, 5/20 is routed both to the second and third endpoints, and 6/20 is routed to the last endpoint. For more information, see Endpoint Weights in the AWS Global Accelerator Developer Guide.
float
The percentage of traffic to send to an AWS Region. Additional traffic is distributed to other endpoint groups for this listener.
Use this action to increase (dial up) or decrease (dial down) traffic to a specific Region. The percentage is applied to the traffic that would otherwise have been routed to the Region based on optimal routing.
The default value is 100.
integer
The port that AWS Global Accelerator uses to check the health of endpoints that are part of this endpoint group. The default port is the listener port that this endpoint group is associated with. If the listener port is a list of ports, Global Accelerator uses the first port in the list.
string
The protocol that AWS Global Accelerator uses to check the health of endpoints that are part of this endpoint group. The default value is TCP.
string
If the protocol is HTTP/S, then this specifies the path that is the destination for health check targets. The default value is slash (/).
integer

string
[REQUIRED]
The protocol for connections from clients to your accelerator.
string
Client affinity lets you direct all requests from a user to the same endpoint, if you have stateful applications, regardless of the port and protocol of the client request. Clienty affinity gives you control over whether to always route each client to the same specific endpoint.
AWS Global Accelerator uses a consistent-flow hashing algorithm to choose the optimal endpoint for a connection. If client affinity is NONE, Global Accelerator uses the "five-tuple" (5-tuple) properties—client IP address, client port, destination IP address, destination port, and protocol—to select the hash value, and then chooses the best endpoint. However, with this setting, if someone uses different ports to connect to Global Accelerator, their connections might not be always routed to the same endpoint because the hash value changes.
If you want a given client to always be routed to the same endpoint, set client affinity to CLIENT_IP instead. When you use the CLIENT_IP setting, Global Accelerator uses the "two-tuple" (2-tuple) properties— client IP address and destination IP address—to select the hash value. For UDP, Global Accelerator always uses two-tuple properties to select the hash value.
The default value is NONE.
string

A unique, case-sensitive identifier that you provide to ensure the idempotency—that is, the uniqueness—of the request.

Client affinity lets you direct all requests from a user to the same endpoint, if you have stateful applications, regardless of the source port and protocol of the user request. This gives you control over whether and how to maintain client affinity to a given endpoint.
The default value is NONE.

(dict) --
EndpointGroups (list) --
The list of the endpoint groups associated with a listener.
(dict) --
A complex type for the endpoint group. An AWS Region can have only one endpoint group for a specific listener.
EndpointGroupArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the endpoint group.
EndpointGroupRegion (string) --
The AWS Region that this endpoint group belongs.
EndpointDescriptions (list) --
The list of endpoint objects.
(dict) --
A complex type for an endpoint. Each endpoint group can include one or more endpoints, such as load balancers.
EndpointId (string) --
An ID for the endpoint. If the endpoint is a Network Load Balancer or Application Load Balancer, this is the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the resource. If the endpoint is an Elastic IP address, this is the Elastic IP address allocation ID.
Weight (integer) --
The weight associated with the endpoint. When you add weights to endpoints, you configure AWS Global Accelerator to route traffic based on proportions that you specify. For example, you might specify endpoint weights of 4, 5, 5, and 6 (sum=20). The result is that 4/20 of your traffic, on average, is routed to the first endpoint, 5/20 is routed both to the second and third endpoints, and 6/20 is routed to the last endpoint. For more information, see Endpoint Weights in the AWS Global Accelerator Developer Guide.
HealthState (string) --
The health status of the endpoint.
HealthReason (string) --
The reason code associated with why the endpoint is not healthy. If the endpoint state is healthy, a reason code is not provided.
If the endpoint state is unhealthy, the reason code can be one of the following values:
Timeout: The health check requests to the endpoint are timing out before returning a status.
Failed: The health check failed, for example because the endpoint response was invalid (malformed).
If the endpoint state is initial, the reason code can be one of the following values:
ProvisioningInProgress: The endpoint is in the process of being provisioned.
InitialHealthChecking: Global Accelerator is still setting up the minimum number of health checks for the endpoint that are required to determine its health status.
TrafficDialPercentage (float) --
The percentage of traffic to send to an AWS Region. Additional traffic is distributed to other endpoint groups for this listener.
Use this action to increase (dial up) or decrease (dial down) traffic to a specific Region. The percentage is applied to the traffic that would otherwise have been routed to the Region based on optimal routing.
The default value is 100.
HealthCheckPort (integer) --
The port that Global Accelerator uses to perform health checks on endpoints that are part of this endpoint group.
The default port is the port for the listener that this endpoint group is associated with. If the listener port is a list, Global Accelerator uses the first specified port in the list of ports.
HealthCheckProtocol (string) --
The protocol that Global Accelerator uses to perform health checks on endpoints that are part of this endpoint group. The default value is TCP.
HealthCheckPath (string) --
If the protocol is HTTP/S, then this value provides the ping path that Global Accelerator uses for the destination on the endpoints for health checks. The default is slash (/).
HealthCheckIntervalSeconds (integer) --
The elapsed time, in seconds, between health checks for each endpoint. The default value is 30.
ThresholdCount (integer) --
The number of consecutive health checks required to set the state of a healthy endpoint to unhealthy, or to set an unhealthy endpoint to healthy. The default value is 3.
NextToken (string) --
The token for the next set of results. You receive this token from a previous call.
