See also: AWS API Documentation

See 'aws help' for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  create-subscriber
--account-id <value>
--budget-name <value>
--notification <value>
--subscriber <value>
[--cli-input-json <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--account-id (string)

The accountId that is associated with the budget that you want to create a subscriber for.

--budget-name (string)

The name of the budget that you want to subscribe to. Budget names must be unique within an account.

--notification (structure)

The notification that you want to create a subscriber for.

NotificationType -> (string)

Whether the notification is for how much you have spent (ACTUAL ) or for how much you're forecasted to spend (FORECASTED ).

ComparisonOperator -> (string)

The comparison that is used for this notification.

Threshold -> (double)

The threshold that is associated with a notification. Thresholds are always a percentage, and many customers find value being alerted between 50% - 200% of the budgeted amount. The maximum limit for your threshold is 1,000,000% above the budgeted amount.

ThresholdType -> (string)

The type of threshold for a notification. For ABSOLUTE_VALUE thresholds, AWS notifies you when you go over or are forecasted to go over your total cost threshold. For PERCENTAGE thresholds, AWS notifies you when you go over or are forecasted to go over a certain percentage of your forecasted spend. For example, if you have a budget for 200 dollars and you have a PERCENTAGE threshold of 80%, AWS notifies you when you go over 160 dollars.

NotificationState -> (string)

Whether this notification is in alarm. If a budget notification is in the ALARM state, you have passed the set threshold for the budget.

Shorthand Syntax:

NotificationType=string,ComparisonOperator=string,Threshold=double,ThresholdType=string,NotificationState=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "NotificationType": "ACTUAL"|"FORECASTED",
  "ComparisonOperator": "GREATER_THAN"|"LESS_THAN"|"EQUAL_TO",
  "Threshold": double,
  "ThresholdType": "PERCENTAGE"|"ABSOLUTE_VALUE",
  "NotificationState": "OK"|"ALARM"
}

--subscriber (structure)

The subscriber that you want to associate with a budget notification.

SubscriptionType -> (string)

The type of notification that AWS sends to a subscriber.

Address -> (string)

The address that AWS sends budget notifications to, either an SNS topic or an email.

When you create a subscriber, the value of Address can't contain line breaks.

Shorthand Syntax:

SubscriptionType=string,Address=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "SubscriptionType": "SNS"|"EMAIL",
  "Address": "string"
}

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

See 'aws help' for descriptions of global parameters.
