ClusterName

A user-supplied cluster identifier. If this parameter is specified, only snapshots associated with that specific cluster are described.

Type: Integer

Required: No

NextToken

An optional argument to pass in case the total number of records exceeds the value of MaxResults. If nextToken is returned, there are more results available. The value of nextToken is a unique pagination token for each page. Make the call again using the returned token to retrieve the next page. Keep all other arguments unchanged.

Type: String

Required: No

ShowDetail

Type: Boolean

Required: No

SnapshotName

A user-supplied name of the snapshot. If this parameter is specified, only this named snapshot is described.
