2022/11/08 - AWS Resource Explorer - 19 new api methods
Changes This is the initial SDK release for AWS Resource Explorer. AWS Resource Explorer lets your users search for and discover your AWS resources across the AWS Regions in your account.
After you call this operation, the affected Amazon Web Services Region no longer has a default view. All Search operations in that Region must explicitly specify a view or the operation fails. You can configure a new default by calling the AssociateDefaultView operation.
If an Amazon Web Services Region doesn't have a default view configured, then users must explicitly specify a view with every Search operation performed in that Region.

client.list_supported_resource_types(
MaxResults=123,
NextToken='string'
)
integer
The maximum number of results that you want included on each page of the response. If you do not include this parameter, it defaults to a value appropriate to the operation. If additional items exist beyond those included in the current response, the NextToken response element is present and has a value (is not null). Include that value as the NextToken request parameter in the next call to the operation to get the next part of the results.
Note
An API operation can return fewer results than the maximum even when there are more results available. You should check NextToken after every operation to ensure that you receive all of the results.
string
The parameter for receiving additional results if you receive a NextToken response in a previous request. A NextToken response indicates that more output is available. Set this parameter to the value of the previous call's NextToken response to indicate where the output should continue from.

Turns on Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer in the Amazon Web Services Region in which you called this operation by creating an index. Resource Explorer begins discovering the resources in this Region and stores the details about the resources in the index so that they can be queried by using the Search operation. You can create only one index in a Region.
Note
This operation creates only a local index. To promote the local index in one Amazon Web Services Region into the aggregator index for the Amazon Web Services account, use the UpdateIndexType operation. For more information, see Turning on cross-Region search by creating an aggregator index in the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide .
For more details about what happens when you turn on Resource Explorer in an Amazon Web Services Region, see Turn on Resource Explorer to index your resources in an Amazon Web Services Region in the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide .
If this is the first Amazon Web Services Region in which you've created an index for Resource Explorer, then this operation also creates a service-linked role in your Amazon Web Services account that allows Resource Explorer to enumerate your resources to populate the index.
<ul> <li> <p> <b>Action</b>: <code>resource-explorer-2:CreateIndex</code> </p> <p> <b>Resource</b>: The ARN of the index (as it will exist after the operation completes) in the Amazon Web Services Region and account in which you're trying to create the index. Use the wildcard character (<code>*</code>) at the end of the string to match the eventual UUID. For example, the following <code>Resource</code> element restricts the role or user to creating an index in only the <code>us-east-2</code> Region of the specified account.</p> <p> <code>"Resource": "arn:aws:resource-explorer-2:us-east-2:<i><account-id></i>:index/*"</code> </p> <p>Alternatively, you can use <code>"Resource": "*"</code> to allow the role or user to create an index in any Region.</p> </li> <li> <p> <b>Action</b>: <code>iam:CreateServiceLinkedRole</code> </p> <p> <b>Resource</b>: No specific resource (*). </p> <p>This permission is required only the first time you create an index to turn on Resource Explorer in the account. Resource Explorer uses this to create the <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/resource-explorer/latest/userguide/security_iam_service-linked-roles.html">service-linked role needed to index the resources in your account</a>. Resource Explorer uses the same service-linked role for all additional indexes you create afterwards.</p> </li> </ul>

Request Syntax
client.search(
MaxResults=123,
NextToken='string',
QueryString='string',
ViewArn='string'
)
integer
The maximum number of results that you want included on each page of the response. If you do not include this parameter, it defaults to a value appropriate to the operation. If additional items exist beyond those included in the current response, the NextToken response element is present and has a value (is not null). Include that value as the NextToken request parameter in the next call to the operation to get the next part of the results.
Note
An API operation can return fewer results than the maximum even when there are more results available. You should check NextToken after every operation to ensure that you receive all of the results.
string
The parameter for receiving additional results if you receive a NextToken response in a previous request. A NextToken response indicates that more output is available. Set this parameter to the value of the previous call's NextToken response to indicate where the output should continue from.
string
[REQUIRED]
A string that includes keywords and filters that specify the resources that you want to include in the results.
For the complete syntax supported by the QueryString parameter, see Search query syntax reference for Resource Explorer.
The search is completely case insensitive. You can specify an empty string to return all results up to the limit of 1,000 total results.
Note
The operation can return only the first 1,000 results. If the resource you want is not included, then use a different value for QueryString to refine the results.
string
Specifies the Amazon resource name (ARN) of the view to use for the query. If you don't specify a value for this parameter, then the operation automatically uses the default view for the Amazon Web Services Region in which you called this operation. If the Region either doesn't have a default view or if you don't have permission to use the default view, then the operation fails with a 401 Unauthorized exception.

Indexes (list) --
A structure that contains the details and status of each index.
(dict) --
An index is the data store used by Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer to hold information about your Amazon Web Services resources that the service discovers. Creating an index in an Amazon Web Services Region turns on Resource Explorer and lets it discover your resources.
By default, an index is local , meaning that it contains information about resources in only the same Region as the index. However, you can promote the index of one Region in the account by calling UpdateIndexType to convert it into an aggregator index. The aggregator index receives a replicated copy of the index information from all other Regions where Resource Explorer is turned on. This allows search operations in that Region to return results from all Regions in the account.
Arn (string) --
The Amazon resource name (ARN) of the index.
Region (string) --
The Amazon Web Services Region in which the index exists.
Type (string) --
The type of index. It can be one of the following values:
LOCAL – The index contains information about resources from only the same Amazon Web Services Region.
AGGREGATOR – Resource Explorer replicates copies of the indexed information about resources in all other Amazon Web Services Regions to the aggregator index. This lets search results in the Region with the aggregator index to include resources from all Regions in the account where Resource Explorer is turned on.
NextToken (string) --
If present, indicates that more output is available than is included in the current response. Use this value in the NextToken request parameter in a subsequent call to the operation to get the next part of the output. You should repeat this until the NextToken response element comes back as null .
Changes the type of the index from one of the following types to the other. For more information about indexes and the role they perform in Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer, see Turning on cross-Region search by creating an aggregator index in the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide .
AGGREGATOR index type The index contains information about resources from all Amazon Web Services Regions in the Amazon Web Services account in which you've created a Resource Explorer index. Resource information from all other Regions is replicated to this Region's index. When you change the index type to AGGREGATOR , Resource Explorer turns on replication of all discovered resource information from the other Amazon Web Services Regions in your account to this index. You can then, from this Region only, perform resource search queries that span all Amazon Web Services Regions in the Amazon Web Services account. Turning on replication from all other Regions is performed by asynchronous background tasks. You can check the status of the asynchronous tasks by using the GetIndex operation. When the asynchronous tasks complete, the Status response of that operation changes from UPDATING to ACTIVE . After that, you can start to see results from other Amazon Web Services Regions in query results. However, it can take several hours for replication from all other Regions to complete.
Warning
You can have only one aggregator index per Amazon Web Services account. Before you can promote a different index to be the aggregator index for the account, you must first demote the existing aggregator index to type LOCAL .
LOCAL index type The index contains information about resources in only the Amazon Web Services Region in which the index exists. If an aggregator index in another Region exists, then information in this local index is replicated to the aggregator index. When you change the index type to LOCAL , Resource Explorer turns off the replication of resource information from all other Amazon Web Services Regions in the Amazon Web Services account to this Region. The aggregator index remains in the UPDATING state until all replication with other Regions successfully stops. You can check the status of the asynchronous task by using the GetIndex operation. When Resource Explorer successfully stops all replication with other Regions, the Status response of that operation changes from UPDATING to ACTIVE . Separately, the resource information from other Regions that was previously stored in the index is deleted within 30 days by another background task. Until that asynchronous task completes, some results from other Regions can continue to appear in search results.
Warning
After you demote an aggregator index to a local index, you must wait 24 hours before you can promote another index to be the new aggregator index for the account.
