• If the source type is a DB cluster, a DBClusterIdentifier value must be supplied.

• If the source type is a DB parameter group, a DBParameterGroupName value must be supplied.

• If the source type is a DB security group, a DBSecurityGroupName value must be supplied.

• If the source type is a DB snapshot, a DBSnapshotIdentifier value must be supplied.

• If the source type is a DB cluster snapshot, a DBClusterSnapshotIdentifier value must be supplied.

• If the source type is an RDS Proxy, a DBProxyName value must be supplied.

type Duration

integer

param Duration

Default: 60

type EventCategories

list

param EventCategories

A list of event categories that trigger notifications for a event notification subscription.

• (string) --

type Filters

list

param Filters

This parameter isn't currently supported.

• (dict) --

  A filter name and value pair that is used to return a more specific list of results from a describe operation. Filters can be used to match a set of resources by specific criteria, such as IDs. The filters supported by a describe operation are documented with the describe operation.

  Note

  Currently, wildcards are not supported in filters.

  The following actions can be filtered:

  • DescribeDBClusterBacktracks

  • DescribeDBClusterEndpoints

  • DescribeDBClusters

  • DescribeDBInstances

  • DescribePendingMaintenanceActions

  • Name (string) -- [REQUIRED]

    The name of the filter. Filter names are case-sensitive.

  • Values (list) -- [REQUIRED]

    One or more filter values. Filter values are case-sensitive.

    • (string) --

type MaxRecords

integer

param MaxRecords

The maximum number of records to include in the response. If more records exist than the specified MaxRecords value, a pagination token called a marker is included in the response so that you can retrieve the remaining results.

Default: 100

Constraints: Minimum 20, maximum 100.

type Marker

string

param Marker

An optional pagination token provided by a previous DescribeEvents request. If this parameter is specified, the response includes only records beyond the marker, up to the value specified by MaxRecords .
