API Version:

Defined in:

(unknown)

Overview

Constructs a service interface object. Each API operation is exposed as a function on service.

Service Description

This is the Recycle Bin API Reference. This documentation provides descriptions and syntax for each of the actions and data types in Recycle Bin.

Recycle Bin is a snapshot recovery feature that enables you to restore accidentally deleted snapshots. When using Recycle Bin, if your snapshots are deleted, they are retained in the Recycle Bin for a time period that you specify.

You can restore a snapshot from the Recycle Bin at any time before its retention period expires. After you restore a snapshot from the Recycle Bin, the snapshot is removed from the Recycle Bin, and you can then use it in the same way you use any other snapshot in your account. If the retention period expires and the snapshot is not restored, the snapshot is permanently deleted from the Recycle Bin and is no longer available for recovery. For more information about Recycle Bin, see Recycle Bin in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

Sending a Request Using Rbin

var rbin = new AWS.Rbin();
rbin.createRule(params, function (err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Locking the API Version

In order to ensure that the Rbin object uses this specific API, you can construct the object by passing the apiVersion option to the constructor:

var rbin = new AWS.Rbin({apiVersion: '2021-06-15'});

You can also set the API version globally in AWS.config.apiVersions using the rbin service identifier:

AWS.config.apiVersions = {
  rbin: '2021-06-15',
  // other service API versions
};

var rbin = new AWS.Rbin();

  your AWS secret access key.

• sessionToken (AWS.Credentials) —

  the optional AWS session token to sign requests with.

• credentials (AWS.Credentials) —

  the AWS credentials to sign requests with. You can either specify this object, or specify the accessKeyId and secretAccessKey options directly.

• credentialProvider (AWS.CredentialProviderChain) —

  the provider chain used to resolve credentials if no static credentials property is set.

• region (String) —

  the region to send service requests to. See AWS.Rbin.region for more information.

  the maximum amount of redirects to follow with a request. See AWS.Rbin.maxRedirects for more information.

• sslEnabled (Boolean) —

  whether to enable SSL for requests.

• paramValidation (Boolean|map) —

  whether input parameters should be validated against the operation description before sending the request. Defaults to true. Pass a map to enable any of the following specific validation features:

• s3ForcePathStyle (Boolean) —

  whether to force path style URLs for S3 objects.

  • customBackoff [function] — A custom function that accepts a retry count and error and returns the amount of time to delay in milliseconds. If the result is a non-zero negative value, no further retry attempts will be made. The base option will be ignored if this option is supplied. The function is only called for retryable errors.

rbin.updateRule(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

• params (Object) (defaults to: {}) —
  • Identifier — (String)

    The unique ID of the retention rule to update.

  • RetentionPeriod — (map)

    Information about the retention period for which the retention rule is to retain resources.

    • RetentionPeriodValue — required — (Integer)

      The period value for which the retention rule is to retain resources. The period is measured using the unit specified for RetentionPeriodUnit.

    • RetentionPeriodUnit — required — (String)

      The unit of time in which the retention period is measured. Currently, only DAYS is supported.

      Possible values include:
      • "DAYS"
  • Description — (String)

    The retention rule description.

  • ResourceType — (String)

    The resource type to be retained by the retention rule. Currently, only Amazon EBS snapshots are supported.

    Possible values include:
    • "EBS_SNAPSHOT"
  • ResourceTags — (Array<map>)

    Information about the resource tags to use to identify resources that are to be retained by the retention rule. The retention rule retains only deleted snapshots that have one or more of the specified tag key and value pairs. If a snapshot is deleted, but it does not have any of the specified tag key and value pairs, it is immediately deleted without being retained by the retention rule.

    You can add the same tag key and value pair to a maximum or five retention rules.

    • ResourceTagKey — required — (String)

      The tag key.

    • ResourceTagValue — (String)

      The tag value.

Callback (callback):

• function(err, data) { ... }

  Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

  Context (this):

  • (AWS.Response) —

    the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

  Parameters:

  • err (Error) —

    the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

  • data (Object) —

    the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

    • Identifier — (String)

      The unique ID of the retention rule.

    • RetentionPeriod — (map)

      Information about the retention period for which a retention rule is to retain resources.

      • RetentionPeriodValue — required — (Integer)

        The period value for which the retention rule is to retain resources. The period is measured using the unit specified for RetentionPeriodUnit.

      • RetentionPeriodUnit — required — (String)

        The unit of time in which the retention period is measured. Currently, only DAYS is supported.

        Possible values include:
        • "DAYS"
    • Description — (String)

      The retention rule description.

    • ResourceType — (String)

      The resource type retained by the retention rule.

      Possible values include:
      • "EBS_SNAPSHOT"
    • ResourceTags — (Array<map>)

      Information about the resource tags used to identify resources that are retained by the retention rule.

      • ResourceTagKey — required — (String)

        The tag key.

      • ResourceTagValue — (String)

        The tag value.

    • Status — (String)

      The state of the retention rule. Only retention rules that are in the available state retain snapshots.

      Possible values include:
      • "pending"
      • "available"

Returns:

• (AWS.Request) —

  a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.
