Request Syntax

response = client.list_controls(
    controlType='Standard'|'Custom'|'Core',
    nextToken='string',
    maxResults=123,
    controlCatalogId='string'
)
Parameters:

  • controlType (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    A filter that narrows the list of controls to a specific type.

  • nextToken (string) – The pagination token that’s used to fetch the next set of results.

  • maxResults (integer) – The maximum number of results on a page or for an API request call.

  • controlCatalogId (string) –

    A filter that narrows the list of controls to a specific resource from the Amazon Web Services Control Catalog.

    To use this parameter, specify the ARN of the Control Catalog resource. You can specify either a control domain, a control objective, or a common control. For information about how to find the ARNs for these resources, see ListDomains, ListObjectives, and ListCommonControls.

    Note

    You can only filter by one Control Catalog resource at a time. Specifying multiple resource ARNs isn’t currently supported. If you want to filter by more than one ARN, we recommend that you run the ListControls operation separately for each ARN.

    Alternatively, specify UNCATEGORIZED to list controls that aren’t mapped to a Control Catalog resource. For example, this operation might return a list of custom controls that don’t belong to any control domain or control objective.

Return type:

dict
