describe-services¶
Description¶
Returns the current list of AWS services and a list of service categories that applies to each one. You then use service names and categories in your create-case requests. Each AWS service has its own set of categories.
The service codes and category codes correspond to the values that are displayed in the Service and Category drop-down lists on the AWS Support Center Create Case page. The values in those fields, however, do not necessarily match the service codes and categories returned by the describe-services request. Always use the service codes and categories obtained programmatically. This practice ensures that you always have the most recent set of service and category codes.

Synopsis¶
describe-services
[--service-code-list <value>]
[--language <value>]
[--cli-input-json <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
Options¶
--service-code-list (list)
A JSON-formatted list of service codes available for AWS services.
Syntax:
"string" "string" ...
--language (string)
The ISO 639-1 code for the language in which AWS provides support. AWS Support currently supports English ("en") and Japanese ("ja"). language parameters must be passed explicitly for operations that take them.
--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.
--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.
