2019/07/26 - AWS Cost Explorer Service - 1 new 6 updated api methods
Changes Adds support for resource optimization recommendations.
Creates recommendations that helps you save cost by identifying idle and underutilized Amazon EC2 instances.
Recommendations are generated to either downsize or terminate instances, along with providing savings detail and metrics. For details on calculation and function, see Optimizing Your Cost with Rightsizing Recommendations.

Use Expression to filter by cost or by usage. There are two patterns:
Simple dimension values - You can set the dimension name and values for the filters that you plan to use. For example, you can filter for REGION==us-east-1 OR REGION==us-west-1 . The Expression for that looks like this: { "Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", “us-west-1” ] } } The list of dimension values are OR'd together to retrieve cost or usage data. You can create Expression and DimensionValues objects using either with* methods or set* methods in multiple lines.
Compound dimension values with logical operations - You can use multiple Expression types and the logical operators AND/OR/NOT to create a list of one or more Expression objects. This allows you to filter on more advanced options. For example, you can filter on ((REGION == us-east-1 OR REGION == us-west-1) OR (TAG.Type == Type1)) AND (USAGE_TYPE != DataTransfer) . The Expression for that looks like this: { "And": [ {"Or": [ {"Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", "us-west-1" ] }}, {"Tags": { "Key": "TagName", "Values": ["Value1"] } } ]}, {"Not": {"Dimensions": { "Key": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": ["DataTransfer"] }}} ] }
Note
Because each Expression can have only one operator, the service returns an error if more than one is specified. The following example shows an Expression object that creates an error.
{ "And": [ ... ], "DimensionValues": { "Dimension": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": [ "DataTransfer" ] } }
Note
For GetRightsizingRecommendation action, a combination of OR and NOT is not supported. OR is not supported between different dimensions, or dimensions and tags. NOT operators aren't supported. Dimentions are also limited to LINKED_ACCOUNT , REGION , or RIGHTSIZING_TYPE .
Or (list) --
Return results that match either Dimension object.

[REQUIRED]
Sets the start and end dates for retrieving AWS costs. The start date is inclusive, but the end date is exclusive. For example, if start is 2017-01-01 and end is 2017-05-01 , then the cost and usage data is retrieved from 2017-01-01 up to and including 2017-04-30 but not including 2017-05-01 .
Start (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The beginning of the time period that you want the usage and costs for. The start date is inclusive. For example, if start is 2017-01-01 , AWS retrieves cost and usage data starting at 2017-01-01 up to the end date.
End (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The end of the time period that you want the usage and costs for. The end date is exclusive. For example, if end is 2017-05-01 , AWS retrieves cost and usage data from the start date up to, but not including, 2017-05-01 .
string
Sets the AWS cost granularity to MONTHLY or DAILY . If Granularity isn't set, the response object doesn't include the Granularity , either MONTHLY or DAILY .
The GetCostAndUsageRequest operation supports only DAILY and MONTHLY granularities.
dict
Filters AWS costs by different dimensions. For example, you can specify SERVICE and LINKED_ACCOUNT and get the costs that are associated with that account's usage of that service. You can nest Expression objects to define any combination of dimension filters. For more information, see Expression.
Or (list) --
Return results that match either Dimension object.
(dict) --
Use Expression to filter by cost or by usage. There are two patterns:
Simple dimension values - You can set the dimension name and values for the filters that you plan to use. For example, you can filter for REGION==us-east-1 OR REGION==us-west-1 . The Expression for that looks like this: { "Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", “us-west-1” ] } } The list of dimension values are OR'd together to retrieve cost or usage data. You can create Expression and DimensionValues objects using either with* methods or set* methods in multiple lines.
Compound dimension values with logical operations - You can use multiple Expression types and the logical operators AND/OR/NOT to create a list of one or more Expression objects. This allows you to filter on more advanced options. For example, you can filter on ((REGION == us-east-1 OR REGION == us-west-1) OR (TAG.Type == Type1)) AND (USAGE_TYPE != DataTransfer) . The Expression for that looks like this: { "And": [ {"Or": [ {"Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", "us-west-1" ] }}, {"Tags": { "Key": "TagName", "Values": ["Value1"] } } ]}, {"Not": {"Dimensions": { "Key": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": ["DataTransfer"] }}} ] }
Note
Because each Expression can have only one operator, the service returns an error if more than one is specified. The following example shows an Expression object that creates an error.
{ "And": [ ... ], "DimensionValues": { "Dimension": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": [ "DataTransfer" ] } }
Note
For GetRightsizingRecommendation action, a combination of OR and NOT is not supported. OR is not supported between different dimensions, or dimensions and tags. NOT operators aren't supported. Dimentions are also limited to LINKED_ACCOUNT , REGION , or RIGHTSIZING_TYPE .

Not (dict) --
Return results that don't match a Dimension object.
Dimensions (dict) --
The specific Dimension to use for Expression .
Key (string) --
The names of the metadata types that you can use to filter and group your results. For example, AZ returns a list of Availability Zones.
Values (list) --
The metadata values that you can use to filter and group your results. You can use GetDimensionValues to find specific values.
Valid values for the SERVICE dimension are Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud - Compute , Amazon Elasticsearch Service , Amazon ElastiCache , Amazon Redshift , and Amazon Relational Database Service .
(string) --

Valid values are AmortizedCost , BlendedCost , NetAmortizedCost , NetUnblendedCost , NormalizedUsageAmount , UnblendedCost , and UsageQuantity .
Note
If you return the UsageQuantity metric, the service aggregates all usage numbers without taking into account the units. For example, if you aggregate usageQuantity across all of Amazon EC2, the results aren't meaningful because Amazon EC2 compute hours and data transfer are measured in different units (for example, hours vs. GB). To get more meaningful UsageQuantity metrics, filter by UsageType or UsageTypeGroups .
Metrics is required for GetCostAndUsage requests.
(string) --
list
You can group AWS costs using up to two different groups, either dimensions, tag keys, or both.
When you group by tag key, you get all tag values, including empty strings.
Valid values are AZ , INSTANCE_TYPE , LEGAL_ENTITY_NAME , LINKED_ACCOUNT , OPERATION , PLATFORM , PURCHASE_TYPE , SERVICE , TAGS , TENANCY , and USAGE_TYPE .

Simple dimension values - You can set the dimension name and values for the filters that you plan to use. For example, you can filter for REGION==us-east-1 OR REGION==us-west-1 . The Expression for that looks like this: { "Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", “us-west-1” ] } } The list of dimension values are OR'd together to retrieve cost or usage data. You can create Expression and DimensionValues objects using either with* methods or set* methods in multiple lines.
Compound dimension values with logical operations - You can use multiple Expression types and the logical operators AND/OR/NOT to create a list of one or more Expression objects. This allows you to filter on more advanced options. For example, you can filter on ((REGION == us-east-1 OR REGION == us-west-1) OR (TAG.Type == Type1)) AND (USAGE_TYPE != DataTransfer) . The Expression for that looks like this: { "And": [ {"Or": [ {"Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", "us-west-1" ] }}, {"Tags": { "Key": "TagName", "Values": ["Value1"] } } ]}, {"Not": {"Dimensions": { "Key": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": ["DataTransfer"] }}} ] }
Note
Because each Expression can have only one operator, the service returns an error if more than one is specified. The following example shows an Expression object that creates an error.
{ "And": [ ... ], "DimensionValues": { "Dimension": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": [ "DataTransfer" ] } }
Note
For GetRightsizingRecommendation action, a combination of OR and NOT is not supported. OR is not supported between different dimensions, or dimensions and tags. NOT operators aren't supported. Dimentions are also limited to LINKED_ACCOUNT , REGION , or RIGHTSIZING_TYPE .
And (list) --
Return results that match both Dimension objects.

{'Filter': {'Dimensions': {'Key': {'RIGHTSIZING_TYPE'}}}}
Retrieves the reservation coverage for your account. This enables you to see how much of your Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, Amazon ElastiCache, Amazon Relational Database Service, or Amazon Redshift usage is covered by a reservation. An organization's master account can see the coverage of the associated member accounts. For any time period, you can filter data about reservation usage by the following dimensions:
AZ
CACHE_ENGINE
DATABASE_ENGINE
DEPLOYMENT_OPTION
INSTANCE_TYPE
LINKED_ACCOUNT
OPERATING_SYSTEM
PLATFORM
REGION

GetReservationCoverage uses the same Expression object as the other operations, but only AND is supported among each dimension. You can nest only one level deep. If there are multiple values for a dimension, they are OR'd together.
If you don't provide a SERVICE filter, Cost Explorer defaults to EC2.
Or (list) --
Return results that match either Dimension object.
(dict) --
Use Expression to filter by cost or by usage. There are two patterns:
Simple dimension values - You can set the dimension name and values for the filters that you plan to use. For example, you can filter for REGION==us-east-1 OR REGION==us-west-1 . The Expression for that looks like this: { "Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", “us-west-1” ] } } The list of dimension values are OR'd together to retrieve cost or usage data. You can create Expression and DimensionValues objects using either with* methods or set* methods in multiple lines.
Compound dimension values with logical operations - You can use multiple Expression types and the logical operators AND/OR/NOT to create a list of one or more Expression objects. This allows you to filter on more advanced options. For example, you can filter on ((REGION == us-east-1 OR REGION == us-west-1) OR (TAG.Type == Type1)) AND (USAGE_TYPE != DataTransfer) . The Expression for that looks like this: { "And": [ {"Or": [ {"Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", "us-west-1" ] }}, {"Tags": { "Key": "TagName", "Values": ["Value1"] } } ]}, {"Not": {"Dimensions": { "Key": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": ["DataTransfer"] }}} ] }
Note
Because each Expression can have only one operator, the service returns an error if more than one is specified. The following example shows an Expression object that creates an error.
{ "And": [ ... ], "DimensionValues": { "Dimension": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": [ "DataTransfer" ] } }
Note
For GetRightsizingRecommendation action, a combination of OR and NOT is not supported. OR is not supported between different dimensions, or dimensions and tags. NOT operators aren't supported. Dimentions are also limited to LINKED_ACCOUNT , REGION , or RIGHTSIZING_TYPE .

Sets the start and end dates for retrieving RI utilization. The start date is inclusive, but the end date is exclusive. For example, if start is 2017-01-01 and end is 2017-05-01 , then the cost and usage data is retrieved from 2017-01-01 up to and including 2017-04-30 but not including 2017-05-01 .
Start (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The beginning of the time period that you want the usage and costs for. The start date is inclusive. For example, if start is 2017-01-01 , AWS retrieves cost and usage data starting at 2017-01-01 up to the end date.
End (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The end of the time period that you want the usage and costs for. The end date is exclusive. For example, if end is 2017-05-01 , AWS retrieves cost and usage data from the start date up to, but not including, 2017-05-01 .
list
Groups only by SUBSCRIPTION_ID . Metadata is included.
(dict) --
Represents a group when you specify a group by criteria or in the response to a query with a specific grouping.
Type (string) --
The string that represents the type of group.
Key (string) --
The string that represents a key for a specified group.
string
If GroupBy is set, Granularity can't be set. If Granularity isn't set, the response object doesn't include Granularity , either MONTHLY or DAILY . If both GroupBy and Granularity aren't set, GetReservationUtilization defaults to DAILY .
The GetReservationUtilization operation supports only DAILY and MONTHLY granularities.
dict
Filters utilization data by dimensions. You can filter by the following dimensions:
AZ
CACHE_ENGINE
DATABASE_ENGINE
DEPLOYMENT_OPTION
INSTANCE_TYPE
LINKED_ACCOUNT
OPERATING_SYSTEM
PLATFORM
REGION
SERVICE
SCOPE
TENANCY
GetReservationUtilization uses the same Expression object as the other operations, but only AND is supported among each dimension, and nesting is supported up to only one level deep. If there are multiple values for a dimension, they are OR'd together.
Or (list) --
Return results that match either Dimension object.
(dict) --
Use Expression to filter by cost or by usage. There are two patterns:
Simple dimension values - You can set the dimension name and values for the filters that you plan to use. For example, you can filter for REGION==us-east-1 OR REGION==us-west-1 . The Expression for that looks like this: { "Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", “us-west-1” ] } } The list of dimension values are OR'd together to retrieve cost or usage data. You can create Expression and DimensionValues objects using either with* methods or set* methods in multiple lines.
Compound dimension values with logical operations - You can use multiple Expression types and the logical operators AND/OR/NOT to create a list of one or more Expression objects. This allows you to filter on more advanced options. For example, you can filter on ((REGION == us-east-1 OR REGION == us-west-1) OR (TAG.Type == Type1)) AND (USAGE_TYPE != DataTransfer) . The Expression for that looks like this: { "And": [ {"Or": [ {"Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", "us-west-1" ] }}, {"Tags": { "Key": "TagName", "Values": ["Value1"] } } ]}, {"Not": {"Dimensions": { "Key": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": ["DataTransfer"] }}} ] }
Note
Because each Expression can have only one operator, the service returns an error if more than one is specified. The following example shows an Expression object that creates an error.
{ "And": [ ... ], "DimensionValues": { "Dimension": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": [ "DataTransfer" ] } }
Note
For GetRightsizingRecommendation action, a combination of OR and NOT is not supported. OR is not supported between different dimensions, or dimensions and tags. NOT operators aren't supported. Dimentions are also limited to LINKED_ACCOUNT , REGION , or RIGHTSIZING_TYPE .
And (list) --
Return results that match both Dimension objects.

Or (list) --
Return results that match either Dimension object.
(dict) --
Use Expression to filter by cost or by usage. There are two patterns:
Simple dimension values - You can set the dimension name and values for the filters that you plan to use. For example, you can filter for REGION==us-east-1 OR REGION==us-west-1 . The Expression for that looks like this: { "Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", “us-west-1” ] } } The list of dimension values are OR'd together to retrieve cost or usage data. You can create Expression and DimensionValues objects using either with* methods or set* methods in multiple lines.
Compound dimension values with logical operations - You can use multiple Expression types and the logical operators AND/OR/NOT to create a list of one or more Expression objects. This allows you to filter on more advanced options. For example, you can filter on ((REGION == us-east-1 OR REGION == us-west-1) OR (TAG.Type == Type1)) AND (USAGE_TYPE != DataTransfer) . The Expression for that looks like this: { "And": [ {"Or": [ {"Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", "us-west-1" ] }}, {"Tags": { "Key": "TagName", "Values": ["Value1"] } } ]}, {"Not": {"Dimensions": { "Key": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": ["DataTransfer"] }}} ] }
