Overview

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

Service Description

Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer is a resource search and discovery service. By using Resource Explorer, you can explore your resources using an internet search engine-like experience. Examples of resources include Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) instances, Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) buckets, or Amazon DynamoDB tables. You can search for your resources using resource metadata like names, tags, and IDs. Resource Explorer can search across all of the Amazon Web Services Regions in your account in which you turn the service on, to simplify your cross-Region workloads.

Resource Explorer scans the resources in each of the Amazon Web Services Regions in your Amazon Web Services account in which you turn on Resource Explorer. Resource Explorer creates and maintains an index in each Region, with the details of that Region's resources.

You can search across all of the indexed Regions in your account by designating one of your Amazon Web Services Regions to contain the aggregator index for the account. When you promote a local index in a Region to become the aggregator index for the account, Resource Explorer automatically replicates the index information from all local indexes in the other Regions to the aggregator index. Therefore, the Region with the aggregator index has a copy of all resource information for all Regions in the account where you turned on Resource Explorer. As a result, views in the aggregator index Region include resources from all of the indexed Regions in your account.

For more information about Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer, including how to enable and configure the service, see the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide.

Sending a Request Using ResourceExplorer2

var resourceexplorer2 = new AWS.ResourceExplorer2();
resourceexplorer2.associateDefaultView(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 ResourceExplorer2 object uses this specific API, you can construct the object by passing the apiVersion option to the constructor:

var resourceexplorer2 = new AWS.ResourceExplorer2({apiVersion: '2022-07-28'});

You can also set the API version globally in AWS.config.apiVersions using the resourceexplorer2 service identifier:

AWS.config.apiVersions = {
  resourceexplorer2: '2022-07-28',
  // other service API versions
};

var resourceexplorer2 = new AWS.ResourceExplorer2();

Method Details

associateDefaultView(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Sets the specified view as the default for the Amazon Web Services Region in which you call this operation. When a user performs a Search that doesn't explicitly specify which view to use, then Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer automatically chooses this default view for searches performed in this Amazon Web Services Region.

If an Amazon Web Services Region doesn't have a default view configured, then users must explicitly specify a view with every Search operation performed in that Region.

createIndex(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Turns on Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer in the Amazon Web Services Region in which you called this operation by creating an index. Resource Explorer begins discovering the resources in this Region and stores the details about the resources in the index so that they can be queried by using the Search operation. You can create only one index in a Region.

Note: This operation creates only a local index. To promote the local index in one Amazon Web Services Region into the aggregator index for the Amazon Web Services account, use the UpdateIndexType operation. For more information, see Turning on cross-Region search by creating an aggregator index in the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide.

For more details about what happens when you turn on Resource Explorer in an Amazon Web Services Region, see Turn on Resource Explorer to index your resources in an Amazon Web Services Region in the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide.

If this is the first Amazon Web Services Region in which you've created an index for Resource Explorer, then this operation also creates a service-linked role in your Amazon Web Services account that allows Resource Explorer to enumerate your resources to populate the index.

  • Action: resource-explorer-2:CreateIndex

    Resource: The ARN of the index (as it will exist after the operation completes) in the Amazon Web Services Region and account in which you're trying to create the index. Use the wildcard character (*) at the end of the string to match the eventual UUID. For example, the following Resource element restricts the role or user to creating an index in only the us-east-2 Region of the specified account.

    "Resource": "arn:aws:resource-explorer-2:us-west-2:<account-id>:index/*"

    Alternatively, you can use "Resource": "*" to allow the role or user to create an index in any Region.

  • Action: iam:CreateServiceLinkedRole

    Resource: No specific resource (*).

    This permission is required only the first time you create an index to turn on Resource Explorer in the account. Resource Explorer uses this to create the service-linked role needed to index the resources in your account. Resource Explorer uses the same service-linked role for all additional indexes you create afterwards.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the createIndex operation

var params = {
  ClientToken: 'STRING_VALUE',
  Tags: {
    '<String>': 'STRING_VALUE',
    /* '<String>': ... */
  }
};
resourceexplorer2.createIndex(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: {})
    • ClientToken — (String)

      This value helps ensure idempotency. Resource Explorer uses this value to prevent the accidental creation of duplicate versions. We recommend that you generate a UUID-type value to ensure the uniqueness of your index.

      If a token is not provided, the SDK will use a version 4 UUID.
    • Tags — (map<String>)

      The specified tags are attached only to the index created in this Amazon Web Services Region. The tags aren't attached to any of the resources listed in the index.

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:

      • Arn — (String)

        The ARN of the new local index for the Region. You can reference this ARN in IAM permission policies to authorize the following operations: DeleteIndex | GetIndex | UpdateIndexType | CreateView

      • CreatedAt — (Date)

        The date and timestamp when the index was created.

      • State — (String)

        Indicates the current state of the index. You can check for changes to the state for asynchronous operations by calling the GetIndex operation.

        Note: The state can remain in the CREATING or UPDATING state for several hours as Resource Explorer discovers the information about your resources and populates the index.
        Possible values include:
        • "CREATING"
        • "ACTIVE"
        • "DELETING"
        • "DELETED"
        • "UPDATING"

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

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

createView(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Creates a view that users can query by using the Search operation. Results from queries that you make using this view include only resources that match the view's Filters. For more information about Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer views, see Managing views in the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide.

Only the principals with an IAM identity-based policy that grants Allow to the Search action on a Resource with the Amazon resource name (ARN) of this view can Search using views you create with this operation.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the createView operation

var params = {
  ViewName: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  ClientToken: 'STRING_VALUE',
  Filters: {
    FilterString: 'STRING_VALUE' /* required */
  },
  IncludedProperties: [
    {
      Name: 'STRING_VALUE' /* required */
    },
    /* more items */
  ],
  Scope: 'STRING_VALUE',
  Tags: {
    '<String>': 'STRING_VALUE',
    /* '<String>': ... */
  }
};
resourceexplorer2.createView(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: {})
    • ClientToken — (String)

      This value helps ensure idempotency. Resource Explorer uses this value to prevent the accidental creation of duplicate versions. We recommend that you generate a UUID-type value to ensure the uniqueness of your views.

      If a token is not provided, the SDK will use a version 4 UUID.
    • Filters — (map)

      An array of strings that specify which resources are included in the results of queries made using this view. When you use this view in a Search operation, the filter string is combined with the search's QueryString parameter using a logical AND operator.

      For information about the supported syntax, see Search query reference for Resource Explorer in the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide.

      This query string in the context of this operation supports only filter prefixes with optional operators. It doesn't support free-form text. For example, the string region:us* service:ec2 -tag:stage=prod includes all Amazon EC2 resources in any Amazon Web Services Region that begins with the letters us and is not tagged with a key Stage that has the value prod.

deleteIndex(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Deletes the specified index and turns off Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer in the specified Amazon Web Services Region. When you delete an index, Resource Explorer stops discovering and indexing resources in that Region. Resource Explorer also deletes all views in that Region. These actions occur as asynchronous background tasks. You can check to see when the actions are complete by using the GetIndex operation and checking the Status response value.

Note: If the index you delete is the aggregator index for the Amazon Web Services account, you must wait 24 hours before you can promote another local index to be the aggregator index for the account. Users can't perform account-wide searches using Resource Explorer until another aggregator index is configured.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the deleteIndex operation

var params = {
  Arn: 'STRING_VALUE' /* required */
};
resourceexplorer2.deleteIndex(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

If your search results are empty, or are missing results that you think should be there, see Troubleshooting Resource Explorer search.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the search operation

var params = {
  QueryString: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  MaxResults: 'NUMBER_VALUE',
  NextToken: 'STRING_VALUE',
  ViewArn: 'STRING_VALUE'
};
resourceexplorer2.search(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: {})
    • MaxResults — (Integer)

      The maximum number of results that you want included on each page of the response. If you do not include this parameter, it defaults to a value appropriate to the operation. If additional items exist beyond those included in the current response, the NextToken response element is present and has a value (is not null). Include that value as the NextToken request parameter in the next call to the operation to get the next part of the results.

      Note: An API operation can return fewer results than the maximum even when there are more results available. You should check NextToken after every operation to ensure that you receive all of the results.
    • NextToken — (String)

      The parameter for receiving additional results if you receive a NextToken response in a previous request. A NextToken response indicates that more output is available. Set this parameter to the value of the previous call's NextToken response to indicate where the output should continue from. The pagination tokens expire after 24 hours.

    • QueryString — (String)

      A string that includes keywords and filters that specify the resources that you want to include in the results.

      For the complete syntax supported by the QueryString parameter, see Search query syntax reference for Resource Explorer.

      The search is completely case insensitive. You can specify an empty string to return all results up to the limit of 1,000 total results.

      Note: The operation can return only the first 1,000 results. If the resource you want is not included, then use a different value for QueryString to refine the results.
    • ViewArn — (String)

      Specifies the Amazon resource name (ARN) of the view to use for the query. If you don't specify a value for this parameter, then the operation automatically uses the default view for the Amazon Web Services Region in which you called this operation. If the Region either doesn't have a default view or if you don't have permission to use the default view, then the operation fails with a 401 Unauthorized exception.

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:

      • Count — (map)

        The number of resources that match the query.

        • Complete — (Boolean)

          Indicates whether the TotalResources value represents an exhaustive count of search results.

          • If True, it indicates that the search was exhaustive. Every resource that matches the query was counted.

          • If False, then the search reached the limit of 1,000 matching results, and stopped counting.

        • TotalResources — (Integer)

          The number of resources that match the search query. This value can't exceed 1,000. If there are more than 1,000 resources that match the query, then only 1,000 are counted and the Complete field is set to false. We recommend that you refine your query to return a smaller number of results.

      • NextToken — (String)

        If present, indicates that more output is available than is included in the current response. Use this value in the NextToken request parameter in a subsequent call to the operation to get the next part of the output. You should repeat this until the NextToken response element comes back as null. The pagination tokens expire after 24 hours.

      • Resources — (Array<map>)

        The list of structures that describe the resources that match the query.

        • Arn — (String)

          The Amazon resource name (ARN) of the resource.

        • LastReportedAt — (Date)

          The date and time that Resource Explorer last queried this resource and updated the index with the latest information about the resource.

        • OwningAccountId — (String)

          The Amazon Web Services account that owns the resource.

        • Properties — (Array<map>)

          A structure with additional type-specific details about the resource. These properties can be added by turning on integration between Resource Explorer and other Amazon Web Services services.

updateIndexType(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Changes the type of the index from one of the following types to the other. For more information about indexes and the role they perform in Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer, see Turning on cross-Region search by creating an aggregator index in the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide.

  • AGGREGATOR index type

    The index contains information about resources from all Amazon Web Services Regions in the Amazon Web Services account in which you've created a Resource Explorer index. Resource information from all other Regions is replicated to this Region's index.

    When you change the index type to AGGREGATOR, Resource Explorer turns on replication of all discovered resource information from the other Amazon Web Services Regions in your account to this index. You can then, from this Region only, perform resource search queries that span all Amazon Web Services Regions in the Amazon Web Services account. Turning on replication from all other Regions is performed by asynchronous background tasks. You can check the status of the asynchronous tasks by using the GetIndex operation. When the asynchronous tasks complete, the Status response of that operation changes from UPDATING to ACTIVE. After that, you can start to see results from other Amazon Web Services Regions in query results. However, it can take several hours for replication from all other Regions to complete.

    You can have only one aggregator index per Amazon Web Services account. Before you can promote a different index to be the aggregator index for the account, you must first demote the existing aggregator index to type LOCAL.

  • LOCAL index type

    The index contains information about resources in only the Amazon Web Services Region in which the index exists. If an aggregator index in another Region exists, then information in this local index is replicated to the aggregator index.

    When you change the index type to LOCAL, Resource Explorer turns off the replication of resource information from all other Amazon Web Services Regions in the Amazon Web Services account to this Region. The aggregator index remains in the UPDATING state until all replication with other Regions successfully stops. You can check the status of the asynchronous task by using the GetIndex operation. When Resource Explorer successfully stops all replication with other Regions, the Status response of that operation changes from UPDATING to ACTIVE. Separately, the resource information from other Regions that was previously stored in the index is deleted within 30 days by another background task. Until that asynchronous task completes, some results from other Regions can continue to appear in search results.

    After you demote an aggregator index to a local index, you must wait 24 hours before you can promote another index to be the new aggregator index for the account.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the updateIndexType operation

var params = {
  Arn: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  Type: LOCAL | AGGREGATOR /* required */
};
resourceexplorer2.updateIndexType(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred

});

Parameters:

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

      The Amazon resource name (ARN) of the index that you want to update.

      • Arn — (String)

        The Amazon resource name (ARN) of the index that you updated.

      • LastUpdatedAt — (Date)

        The date and timestamp when the index was last updated.

      • State — (String)

        Indicates the state of the request to update the index. This operation is asynchronous. Call the GetIndex operation to check for changes.

        Possible values include:
        • "CREATING"
        • "ACTIVE"
        • "DELETING"
        • "DELETED"
