2017/11/29 - Amazon Simple Systems Manager (SSM) - 1 new 11 updated api methods
Changes This release updates AWS Systems Manager APIs to enable executing automations at controlled rate, target resources in a resource groups and execute entire automation at once or single step at a time. It is now also possible to use YAML, in addition to JSON, when creating Systems Manager documents.
Information about all active and terminated step executions in an Automation workflow.

(dict) --
One or more filters. Use a filter to return a more specific list of documents.
For keys, you can specify one or more tags that have been applied to a document.
Other valid values include Owner, Name, PlatformTypes, and DocumentType.
Note that only one Owner can be specified in a request. For example: Key=Owner,Values=Self .
If you use Name as a key, you can use a name prefix to return a list of documents. For example, in the AWS CLI, to return a list of all documents that begin with Te , run the following command:
aws ssm list-documents --filters Key=Name,Values=Te
If you specify more than two keys, only documents that are identified by all the tags are returned in the results. If you specify more than two values for a key, documents that are identified by any of the values are returned in the results.
To specify a custom key and value pair, use the format Key=tag:[tagName],Values=[valueName] .
For example, if you created a Key called region and are using the AWS CLI to call the list-documents command:
aws ssm list-documents --filters Key=tag:region,Values=east,west Key=Owner,Values=Self
Key (string) --
The name of the filter key.
Values (list) --
The value for the filter key.
(string) --
integer
The maximum number of items to return for this call. The call also returns a token that you can specify in a subsequent call to get the next set of results.
string
The token for the next set of items to return. (You received this token from a previous call.)

An array of search criteria that targets instances using a Key,Value combination that you specify. Targets is required if you don't provide one or more instance IDs in the call.
Key (string) --
User-defined criteria for sending commands that target instances that meet the criteria. Key can be tag:<Amazon EC2 tag> or InstanceIds. For more information about how to send commands that target instances using Key,Value parameters, see Executing a Command Using Systems Manager Run Command .
Values (list) --
User-defined criteria that maps to Key. For example, if you specified tag:ServerRole, you could specify value:WebServer to execute a command on instances that include Amazon EC2 tags of ServerRole,WebServer. For more information about how to send commands that target instances using Key,Value parameters, see Executing a Command Using Systems Manager Run Command .
(string) --
string
The maximum number of targets allowed to run this task in parallel. You can specify a number, such as 10, or a percentage, such as 10%. The default value is 10.
string
The number of errors that are allowed before the system stops running the automation on additional targets. You can specify either an absolute number of errors, for example 10, or a percentage of the target set, for example 10%. If you specify 3, for example, the system stops running the automation when the fourth error is received. If you specify 0, then the system stops running the automation on additional targets after the first error result is returned. If you run an automation on 50 resources and set max-errors to 10%, then the system stops running the automation on additional targets when the sixth error is received.
Executions that are already running an automation when max-errors is reached are allowed to complete, but some of these executions may fail as well. If you need to ensure that there won't be more than max-errors failed executions, set max-concurrency to 1 so the executions proceed one at a time.
