describe_events

describe_events(**kwargs)

Returns events related to clusters, security groups, and parameter groups. You can obtain events specific to a particular cluster, security group, or parameter group by providing the name as a parameter. By default, only the events occurring within the last hour are returned; however, you can retrieve up to 14 days' worth of events if necessary.

Request Syntax

response = client.describe_events(
    SourceName='string',
    SourceType='node'|'parameter-group'|'subnet-group'|'cluster'|'user'|'acl',
    StartTime=datetime(2015, 1, 1),
    EndTime=datetime(2015, 1, 1),
    Duration=123,
    MaxResults=123,
    NextToken='string'
)

Parameters

• SourceName (string) -- The identifier of the event source for which events are returned. If not specified, all sources are included in the response.
• SourceType (string) -- The event source to retrieve events for. If no value is specified, all events are returned.
• StartTime (datetime) -- The beginning of the time interval to retrieve events for, specified in ISO 8601 format. Example: 2017-03-30T07:03:49.555Z
• EndTime (datetime) -- The end of the time interval for which to retrieve events, specified in ISO 8601 format. Example: 2017-03-30T07:03:49.555Z
• Duration (integer) -- The number of minutes worth of events to retrieve.
• MaxResults (integer) -- The maximum number of records to include in the response. If more records exist than the specified MaxResults value, a token is included in the response so that the remaining results can be retrieved.
• NextToken (string) -- An optional argument to pass in case the total number of records exceeds the value of MaxResults. If nextToken is returned, there are more results available. The value of nextToken is a unique pagination token for each page. Make the call again using the returned token to retrieve the next page. Keep all other arguments unchanged.
