Container for the parameters to the DescribeAlarmHistory operation. Retrieves the history for the specified alarm. You can filter the results by date range or item type. If an alarm name is not specified, the histories for either all metric alarms or all composite alarms are returned.
CloudWatch retains the history of an alarm even if you delete the alarm.
To use this operation and return information about a composite alarm, you must be
signed on with the cloudwatch:DescribeAlarmHistory
permission that is scoped
to *
. You can't return information about composite alarms if your cloudwatch:DescribeAlarmHistory
permission has a narrower scope.

Setting either EndDate or EndDateUtc results in both EndDate and EndDateUtc being assigned, the latest assignment to either one of the two property is reflected in the value of both. EndDate is provided for backwards compatibility only and assigning a non-Utc DateTime to it results in the wrong timestamp being passed to the service. The ending date to retrieve alarm history. |

This example shows how to get history for an alarm.
