Returns the resource types, the number of each resource type, and the total number of resources that AWS Config is recording in this region for your AWS account.
Example
AWS Config is recording three resource types in the US East (Ohio) Region for your account: 25 EC2 instances, 20 IAM users, and 15 S3 buckets.
You make a call to the GetDiscoveredResourceCounts
action and
specify that you want all resource types.
AWS Config returns the following:
The resource types (EC2 instances, IAM users, and S3 buckets).
The number of each resource type (25, 20, and 15).
The total number of all resources (60).
The response is paginated. By default, AWS Config lists 100
ResourceCount objects on each page. You can customize this number with
the limit
parameter. The response includes a nextToken
string. To
get the next page of results, run the request again and specify the
string for the nextToken
parameter.
If you make a call to the GetDiscoveredResourceCounts action, you might not immediately receive resource counts in the following situations:
You are a new AWS Config customer.
You just enabled resource recording.
It might take a few minutes for AWS Config to record and count your resources. Wait a few minutes and then retry the GetDiscoveredResourceCounts action.
configservice_get_discovered_resource_counts(resourceTypes, limit,
nextToken)
The comma-separated list that specifies the resource types that you want
AWS Config to return (for example, "AWS::EC2::Instance"
,
"AWS::IAM::User"
).
If a value for resourceTypes
is not specified, AWS Config returns all
resource types that AWS Config is recording in the region for your
account.
If the configuration recorder is turned off, AWS Config returns an empty list of ResourceCount objects. If the configuration recorder is not recording a specific resource type (for example, S3 buckets), that resource type is not returned in the list of ResourceCount objects.
The maximum number of ResourceCount objects returned on each page. The default is 100. You cannot specify a number greater than 100. If you specify 0, AWS Config uses the default.
The nextToken
string returned on a previous page that you use to get
the next page of results in a paginated response.
