                                                    'ResourceDeleted',

                                                    'ResourceNotRecorded'}}}

Returns a list of configuration items for the specified resource. The list contains details about each state of the resource during the specified time interval.

The response is paginated. By default, AWS Config returns a limit of 10 configuration items per page. You can customize this number with the limit parameter. The response includes a nextToken string. To get the next page of results, run the request again and specify the string for the nextToken parameter.

Note

Each call to the API is limited to span a duration of seven days. It is likely that the number of records returned is smaller than the specified limit . In such cases, you can make another call, using the nextToken .
