Client: Aws\ResourceExplorer2\ResourceExplorer2Client
Service ID: resource-explorer-2
Version: 2022-07-28

This page describes the parameters and results for the operations of the AWS Resource Explorer (2022-07-28), and shows how to use the Aws\ResourceExplorer2\ResourceExplorer2Client object to call the described operations. This documentation is specific to the 2022-07-28 API version of the service.

Operation Summary

Each of the following operations can be created from a client using $client->getCommand('CommandName'), where "CommandName" is the name of one of the following operations. Note: a command is a value that encapsulates an operation and the parameters used to create an HTTP request.

You can also create and send a command immediately using the magic methods available on a client object: $client->commandName(/* parameters */). You can send the command asynchronously (returning a promise) by appending the word "Async" to the operation name: $client->commandNameAsync(/* parameters */).

Operations

AssociateDefaultView

$result = $client->associateDefaultView([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->associateDefaultViewAsync([/* ... */]);

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.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->associateDefaultView([
    'ViewArn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
]);

Parameter Details

Members
ViewArn
Required: Yes
Type: string

The Amazon resource name (ARN) of the view to set as the default for the Amazon Web Services Region and Amazon Web Services account in which you call this operation. The specified view must already exist in the called Region.

CreateIndex

$result = $client->createIndex([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createIndexAsync([/* ... */]);

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.

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.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createIndex([
    'ClientToken' => '<string>',
    'Tags' => ['<string>', ...],
]);

Parameter Details

Members
ClientToken
Type: 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.

Tags
Type: Associative array of custom strings keys (String) to strings

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.

Result Syntax

[
    'Arn' => '<string>',
    'CreatedAt' => <DateTime>,
    'State' => 'CREATING|ACTIVE|DELETING|DELETED|UPDATING',
]

Result Details

Members
Arn
Type: 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
Type: timestamp (string|DateTime or anything parsable by strtotime)

The date and timestamp when the index was created.

State
Type: string

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

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.

Errors

InternalServerException:

The request failed because of internal service error. Try your request again later.

ValidationException:

You provided an invalid value for one of the operation's parameters. Check the syntax for the operation, and try again.

ConflictException:

If you attempted to create a view, then the request failed because either you specified parameters that didn’t match the original request, or you attempted to create a view with a name that already exists in this Amazon Web Services Region.

If you attempted to create an index, then the request failed because either you specified parameters that didn't match the original request, or an index already exists in the current Amazon Web Services Region.

If you attempted to update an index type to AGGREGATOR, then the request failed because you already have an AGGREGATOR index in a different Amazon Web Services Region.

ThrottlingException:

The request failed because you exceeded a rate limit for this operation. For more information, see Quotas for Resource Explorer.

AccessDeniedException:

The credentials that you used to call this operation don't have the minimum required permissions.

CreateView

$result = $client->createView([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createViewAsync([/* ... */]);

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.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createView([
    'ClientToken' => '<string>',
    'Filters' => [
        'FilterString' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    ],
    'IncludedProperties' => [

    'Tags' => ['<string>', ...],
    'ViewName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
]);

Parameter Details

Members
ClientToken
Type: 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.

Filters
Type: SearchFilter structure

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.

IncludedProperties
Type: Array of IncludedProperty structures

Specifies optional fields that you want included in search results from this view. It is a list of objects that each describe a field to include.

The default is an empty list, with no optional fields included in the results.

Scope
Type: string

The root ARN of the account, an organizational unit (OU), or an organization ARN. If left empty, the default is account.

Tags
Type: Associative array of custom strings keys (String) to strings

Tag key and value pairs that are attached to the view.

ViewName
Required: Yes
Type: string

The name of the new view. This name appears in the list of views in Resource Explorer.

The name must be no more than 64 characters long, and can include letters, digits, and the dash (-) character. The name must be unique within its Amazon Web Services Region.

DeleteIndex

$result = $client->deleteIndex([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->deleteIndexAsync([/* ... */]);

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.

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.

QueryString
Required: Yes
Type: 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.

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
Type: 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.

UpdateIndexType

$result = $client->updateIndexType([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->updateIndexTypeAsync([/* ... */]);

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.

    'Arn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

Index

Description

An index is the data store used by Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer to hold information about your Amazon Web Services resources that the service discovers. Creating an index in an Amazon Web Services Region turns on Resource Explorer and lets it discover your resources.

By default, an index is local, meaning that it contains information about resources in only the same Region as the index. However, you can promote the index of one Region in the account by calling UpdateIndexType to convert it into an aggregator index. The aggregator index receives a replicated copy of the index information from all other Regions where Resource Explorer is turned on. This allows search operations in that Region to return results from all Regions in the account.
