Request Parameters

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

capacityProviders

The short name or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of one or more capacity providers. Up to 100 capacity providers can be described in an action.

Type: Array of strings

Required: No

include

Specifies whether or not you want to see the resource tags for the capacity provider. If TAGS is specified, the tags are included in the response. If this field is omitted, tags aren't included in the response.

Type: Array of strings

Valid Values: TAGS

Required: No

maxResults

The maximum number of account setting results returned by DescribeCapacityProviders in paginated output. When this parameter is used, DescribeCapacityProviders only returns maxResults results in a single page along with a nextToken response element. The remaining results of the initial request can be seen by sending another DescribeCapacityProviders request with the returned nextToken value. This value can be between 1 and 10. If this parameter is not used, then DescribeCapacityProviders returns up to 10 results and a nextToken value if applicable.

Type: Integer

Required: No

nextToken

The nextToken value returned from a previous paginated DescribeCapacityProviders request where maxResults was used and the results exceeded the value of that parameter. Pagination continues from the end of the previous results that returned the nextToken value.

Note

This token should be treated as an opaque identifier that is only used to retrieve the next items in a list and not for other programmatic purposes.

Type: String

Required: No

Type: Array of CapacityProvider objects

failures

Any failures associated with the call.

Type: Array of Failure objects

Type: String

Errors

For information about the errors that are common to all actions, see Common Errors.

ClientException

These errors are usually caused by a client action. This client action might be using an action or resource on behalf of a user that doesn't have permissions to use the action or resource. Or, it might be specifying an identifier that isn't valid.

The following list includes additional causes for the error:

The RunTask could not be processed because you use managed scaling and there is a capacity error because the quota of tasks in the PROVISIONING per cluster has been reached. For information about the service quotas, see Amazon ECS service quotas.

HTTP Status Code: 400

InvalidParameterException

The specified parameter isn't valid. Review the available parameters for the API request.

HTTP Status Code: 400

ServerException

These errors are usually caused by a server issue.
