Response {'insights': {'category': ['MISCONFIGURATION']}}
Returns a list of all insights checked for against the specified cluster. You can filter which insights are returned by category, associated Kubernetes version, and status. The default filter lists all categories and every status.
The following lists the available categories:
UPGRADE_READINESS: Amazon EKS identifies issues that could impact your ability to upgrade to new versions of Kubernetes. These are called upgrade insights.
MISCONFIGURATION: Amazon EKS identifies misconfiguration in your EKS Hybrid Nodes setup that could impair functionality of your cluster or workloads. These are called configuration insights.

dict
The criteria to filter your list of insights for your cluster. You can filter which insights are returned by category, associated Kubernetes version, and status.
categories (list) --
The categories to use to filter insights. The following lists the available categories:
UPGRADE_READINESS: Amazon EKS identifies issues that could impact your ability to upgrade to new versions of Kubernetes. These are called upgrade insights.
MISCONFIGURATION: Amazon EKS identifies misconfiguration in your EKS Hybrid Nodes setup that could impair functionality of your cluster or workloads. These are called configuration insights.
(string) --
kubernetesVersions (list) --
The Kubernetes versions to use to filter the insights.
(string) --
statuses (list) --
The statuses to use to filter the insights.
(string) --
integer
The maximum number of identity provider configurations returned by ListInsights in paginated output. When you use this parameter, ListInsights returns only maxResults results in a single page along with a nextToken response element. You can see the remaining results of the initial request by sending another ListInsights request with the returned nextToken value. This value can be between 1 and 100. If you don't use this parameter, ListInsights returns up to 100 results and a nextToken value, if applicable.
string
The nextToken value returned from a previous paginated ListInsights request. When the results of a ListInsights request exceed maxResults, you can use this value to retrieve the next page of results. This value is null when there are no more results to return.
