2026/03/26 - AWS Billing and Cost Management Data Exports - 4 updated api methods
Changes With this release we are providing an option to accounts to have their export delivered to an S3 bucket that is not owned by the account.
{'Export': {'DestinationConfigurations': {'S3Destination': {'S3BucketOwner': 'string'}}}}
Creates a data export and specifies the data query, the delivery preference, and any optional resource tags.
A DataQuery consists of both a QueryStatement and TableConfigurations.
The QueryStatement is an SQL statement. Data Exports only supports a limited subset of the SQL syntax. For more information on the SQL syntax that is supported, see Data query. To view the available tables and columns, see the Data Exports table dictionary.
The TableConfigurations is a collection of specified TableProperties for the table being queried in the QueryStatement. TableProperties are additional configurations you can provide to change the data and schema of a table. Each table can have different TableProperties. However, tables are not required to have any TableProperties. Each table property has a default value that it assumes if not specified. For more information on table configurations, see Data query. To view the table properties available for each table, see the Data Exports table dictionary or use the ListTables API to get a response of all tables and their available properties.
