client.get_account_level_service_configuration()
dict
Response Syntax
{ 'OrgConfiguration': { 'AWSServiceAccessStatus': 'ENABLED'|'DISABLED', 'ServiceLinkedRole': 'string' } }
Response Structure
(dict) --
OrgConfiguration (dict) --
Details about the organization, and whether configuration is ENABLED or DISABLED .
AWSServiceAccessStatus (string) --
This value displays whether your Amazon Web Services service access is ENABLED or DISABLED .
ServiceLinkedRole (string) --

Request Syntax
client.list_indexes_for_members( AccountIdList=[ 'string', ], MaxResults=123, NextToken='string' )
list
[REQUIRED]
The account IDs will limit the output to only indexes from these accounts.
(string) --
integer
The maximum number of results that you want included on each page of the response. If you do not include this parameter, it defaults to a value appropriate to the operation. If additional items exist beyond those included in the current response, the NextToken response element is present and has a value (is not null). Include that value as the NextToken request parameter in the next call to the operation to get the next part of the results.
Note
An API operation can return fewer results than the maximum even when there are more results available. You should check NextToken after every operation to ensure that you receive all of the results.
string
The parameter for receiving additional results if you receive a NextToken response in a previous request. A NextToken response indicates that more output is available. Set this parameter to the value of the previous call's NextToken response to indicate where the output should continue from. The pagination tokens expire after 24 hours.
dict
Response Syntax
{ 'Indexes': [ { 'AccountId': 'string', 'Arn': 'string', 'Region': 'string', 'Type': 'LOCAL'|'AGGREGATOR' }, ], 'NextToken': 'string' }
Response Structure
(dict) --
Indexes (list) --
A structure that contains the details and status of each index.
(dict) --
An index is the data store used by Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer to hold information about your Amazon Web Services resources that the service discovers.
AccountId (string) --
The account ID for the index.
Arn (string) --
The Amazon resource name (ARN) of the index.
Region (string) --
The Amazon Web Services Region in which the index exists.
Type (string) --
The type of index. It can be one of the following values:
LOCAL – The index contains information about resources from only the same Amazon Web Services Region.
AGGREGATOR – Resource Explorer replicates copies of the indexed information about resources in all other Amazon Web Services Regions to the aggregator index. This lets search results in the Region with the aggregator index to include resources from all Regions in the account where Resource Explorer is turned on.
NextToken (string) --
If present, indicates that more output is available than is included in the current response. Use this value in the NextToken request parameter in a subsequent call to the operation to get the next part of the output. You should repeat this until the NextToken response element comes back as null . The pagination tokens expire after 24 hours.
{'Scope': 'string'}
Creates a view that users can query by using the Search operation. Results from queries that you make using this view include only resources that match the view's Filters . For more information about Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer views, see Managing views in the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide .
Only the principals with an IAM identity-based policy that grants Allow to the Search action on a Resource with the Amazon resource name (ARN) of this view can Search using views you create with this operation.

Request Syntax
client.create_view( ClientToken='string', Filters={ 'FilterString': 'string' }, IncludedProperties=[ { 'Name': 'string' }, ], Scope='string', Tags={ 'string': 'string' }, ViewName='string' )
string
This value helps ensure idempotency. Resource Explorer uses this value to prevent the accidental creation of duplicate versions. We recommend that you generate a UUID-type value to ensure the uniqueness of your views.
This field is autopopulated if not provided.
dict
An array of strings that specify which resources are included in the results of queries made using this view. When you use this view in a Search operation, the filter string is combined with the search's QueryString parameter using a logical AND operator.
For information about the supported syntax, see Search query reference for Resource Explorer in the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide .
Warning
This query string in the context of this operation supports only filter prefixes with optional operators . It doesn't support free-form text.
