type AccountId:

string

param AccountId:

[REQUIRED]

The accountId that is associated with the budget.

type Budget:

dict

param Budget:

[REQUIRED]

The budget object that you want to create.

  • BudgetName (string) -- [REQUIRED]

    The name of a budget. The name must be unique within an account. The : and \ characters aren't allowed in BudgetName.

  • BudgetLimit (dict) --

    The total amount of cost, usage, RI utilization, or RI coverage that you want to track with your budget.

    BudgetLimit is required for cost or usage budgets, but optional for RI utilization or coverage budgets. RI utilization or coverage budgets default to 100, which is the only valid value for RI utilization or coverage budgets. You can't use BudgetLimit with PlannedBudgetLimits for CreateBudget and UpdateBudget actions.

    • Amount (string) -- [REQUIRED]

      The cost or usage amount that is associated with a budget forecast, actual spend, or budget threshold.

    • Unit (string) -- [REQUIRED]

      The unit of measurement that is used for the budget forecast, actual spend, or budget threshold, such as dollars or GB.

  • PlannedBudgetLimits (dict) --

    A map containing multiple BudgetLimit, including current or future limits.

    PlannedBudgetLimits is available for cost or usage budget and supports monthly and quarterly TimeUnit.

    For monthly budgets, provide 12 months of PlannedBudgetLimits values. This must start from the current month and include the next 11 months. The key is the start of the month, UTC in epoch seconds.

    For quarterly budgets, provide 4 quarters of PlannedBudgetLimits value entries in standard calendar quarter increments. This must start from the current quarter and include the next 3 quarters. The key is the start of the quarter, UTC in epoch seconds.

    If the planned budget expires before 12 months for monthly or 4 quarters for quarterly, provide the PlannedBudgetLimits values only for the remaining periods.

    If the budget begins at a date in the future, provide PlannedBudgetLimits values from the start date of the budget.

    After all of the BudgetLimit values in PlannedBudgetLimits are used, the budget continues to use the last limit as the BudgetLimit. At that point, the planned budget provides the same experience as a fixed budget.

    DescribeBudget and DescribeBudgets response along with PlannedBudgetLimits will also contain BudgetLimit representing the current month or quarter limit present in PlannedBudgetLimits. This only applies to budgets created with PlannedBudgetLimits. Budgets created without PlannedBudgetLimits will only contain BudgetLimit, and no PlannedBudgetLimits.

    You can change either date with the UpdateBudget operation.

    After the end date, AWS deletes the budget and all associated notifications and subscribers.

    • Start (datetime) --

      The start date for a budget. If you created your budget and didn't specify a start date, AWS defaults to the start of your chosen time period (DAILY, MONTHLY, QUARTERLY, or ANNUALLY).

If you chose MONTHLY, AWS set your start date to 01/01/18 00:00 UTC. The defaults are the same for the AWS Billing and Cost Management console and the API.

      You can change your start date with the UpdateBudget operation.

    • End (datetime) --

      The end date for a budget. If you didn't specify an end date, AWS set your end date to 06/15/87 00:00 UTC. The defaults are the same for the AWS Billing and Cost Management console and the API.

Response Structure

  • (dict) --

    Response of DescribeBudgets

    • Budgets (list) --

      A list of budgets.

      • (dict) --

        Represents the output of the CreateBudget operation. The content consists of the detailed metadata and data file information, and the current status of the budget object.

        This is the ARN pattern for a budget:

        arn:aws:budgetservice::AccountId:budget/budgetName

        • BudgetName (string) --

          The name of a budget. The name must be unique within an account. The : and \ characters aren't allowed in BudgetName.

        • BudgetLimit (dict) --

          The total amount of cost, usage, RI utilization, or RI coverage that you want to track with your budget.

          BudgetLimit is required for cost or usage budgets, but optional for RI utilization or coverage budgets. RI utilization or coverage budgets default to 100, which is the only valid value for RI utilization or coverage budgets. You can't use BudgetLimit with PlannedBudgetLimits for CreateBudget and UpdateBudget actions.

          • Amount (string) --

            The cost or usage amount that is associated with a budget forecast, actual spend, or budget threshold.

          • Unit (string) --

            The unit of measurement that is used for the budget forecast, actual spend, or budget threshold, such as dollars or GB.

        • PlannedBudgetLimits (dict) --

          A map containing multiple BudgetLimit, including current or future limits.

          PlannedBudgetLimits is available for cost or usage budget and supports monthly and quarterly TimeUnit.

          For monthly budgets, provide 12 months of PlannedBudgetLimits values. This must start from the current month and include the next 11 months. The key is the start of the month, UTC in epoch seconds.

          For quarterly budgets, provide 4 quarters of PlannedBudgetLimits value entries in standard calendar quarter increments. This must start from the current quarter and include the next 3 quarters. The key is the start of the quarter, UTC in epoch seconds.

          If the planned budget expires before 12 months for monthly or 4 quarters for quarterly, provide the PlannedBudgetLimits values only for the remaining periods.

          If the budget begins at a date in the future, provide PlannedBudgetLimits values from the start date of the budget.

          After all of the BudgetLimit values in PlannedBudgetLimits are used, the budget continues to use the last limit as the BudgetLimit. At that point, the planned budget provides the same experience as a fixed budget.

          DescribeBudget and DescribeBudgets response along with PlannedBudgetLimits will also contain BudgetLimit representing the current month or quarter limit present in PlannedBudgetLimits. This only applies to budgets created with PlannedBudgetLimits. Budgets created without PlannedBudgetLimits will only contain BudgetLimit, and no PlannedBudgetLimits.

            A generic string.

            • (dict) --

              • A unit of GB

              • Amount (string) --

                The cost or usage amount that is associated with a budget forecast, actual spend, or budget threshold.

              • Unit (string) --

            The default value is false.

        • TimeUnit (string) --

          If you create your budget and don't specify a start date, AWS defaults to the start of your chosen time period (DAILY, MONTHLY, QUARTERLY, or ANNUALLY). For example, if you created your budget on January 24, 2018, chose DAILY, and didn't set a start date, AWS set your start date to 01/24/18 00:00 UTC. If you chose MONTHLY, AWS set your start date to 01/01/18 00:00 UTC. If you didn't specify an end date, AWS set your end date to 06/15/87 00:00 UTC.

          After the end date, AWS deletes the budget and all associated notifications and subscribers.

      The start date for a budget. If you created your budget and didn't specify a start date, AWS defaults to the start of your chosen time period (DAILY, MONTHLY, QUARTERLY, or ANNUALLY). For example, if you created your budget on January 24, 2018, chose DAILY, and didn't set a start date, AWS set your start date to 01/24/18 00:00 UTC. If you chose MONTHLY, AWS set your start date to 01/01/18 00:00 UTC. The defaults are the same for the AWS Billing and Cost Management console and the API.

      You can change your start date with the UpdateBudget operation.

    • End (datetime) --

      The end date for a budget. If you didn't specify an end date, AWS set your end date to 06/15/87 00:00 UTC. The defaults are the same for the AWS Billing and Cost Management console and the API.

      After the end date, AWS deletes the budget and all associated notifications and subscribers. You can change your end date with the UpdateBudget operation.
