2018/06/26 - Amazon Inspector - 4 new api methods
Changes Introduce four new APIs to view and preview Exclusions. Exclusions show which intended security checks are excluded from an assessment, along with reasons and recommendations to fix. The APIs are CreateExclusionsPreview, GetExclusionsPreview, ListExclusions, and DescribeExclusions.
Retrieves the exclusions preview (a list of ExclusionPreview objects) specified by the preview token. You can obtain the preview token by running the CreateExclusionsPreview API.

Request Syntax
client.get_exclusions_preview(
assessmentTemplateArn='string',
previewToken='string',
nextToken='string',
maxResults=123,
locale='EN_US'
)
string
[REQUIRED]
The ARN that specifies the assessment template for which the exclusions preview was requested.
string
[REQUIRED]
The unique identifier associated of the exclusions preview.
string
You can use this parameter when paginating results. Set the value of this parameter to null on your first call to the GetExclusionsPreviewRequest action. Subsequent calls to the action fill nextToken in the request with the value of nextToken from the previous response to continue listing data.
integer
You can use this parameter to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. The default value is 100. The maximum value is 500.
string
The locale into which you want to translate the exclusion's title, description, and recommendation.
