GetConsoleScreenshot (new)

Link ¶

Retrieve a JPG-format screenshot of an instance to help with troubleshooting.

For API calls, the returned content is base64-encoded. For command line tools, the decoding is performed for you.

Request Syntax

client.get_console_screenshot(
    DryRun=True|False,
    InstanceId='string',
    WakeUp=True|False
)

type DryRun:

boolean

param DryRun:

Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation. Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation.

type InstanceId:

string

param InstanceId:

[REQUIRED]

The ID of the instance.

type WakeUp:

boolean

param WakeUp:

When set to true, acts as keystroke input and wakes up an instance that's in standby or "sleep" mode.

rtype:

dict

returns:

                                         'Status': 'string'}}}

Creates a NAT gateway in the specified subnet. A NAT gateway can be used to enable instances in a private subnet to connect to the Internet. This action creates a network interface in the specified subnet with a private IP address from the IP address range of the subnet. For more information, see NAT Gateways in the Amazon Virtual Private Cloud User Guide.

Request Syntax

client.create_nat_gateway(
    SubnetId='string',
    AllocationId='string',
    ClientToken='string'
)

type SubnetId:

string

param SubnetId:

[REQUIRED]

The subnet in which to create the NAT gateway.

type AllocationId:

string

param AllocationId:

[REQUIRED]

The allocation ID of an Elastic IP address to associate with the NAT gateway. If the Elastic IP address is associated with another resource, you must first disassociate it.

type ClientToken:

string

param ClientToken:

Unique, case-sensitive identifier you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. For more information, see How to Ensure Idempotency.

Constraint: Maximum 64 ASCII characters.

rtype:

dict

returns:
