SupportClientProtocol

AWS Support The AWS Support API Reference is intended for programmers who need detailed information about the AWS Support operations and data types. You can use the API to manage your support cases programmatically. The AWS Support API uses HTTP methods that return results in JSON format.

public protocol SupportClientProtocol 

• You must have a Business or Enterprise Support plan to use the AWS Support API.

• If you call the AWS Support API from an account that does not have a Business or Enterprise Support plan, the SubscriptionRequiredException error message appears. For information about changing your support plan, see AWS Support.

The AWS Support service also exposes a set of AWS Trusted Advisor features. You can retrieve a list of checks and their descriptions, get check results, specify checks to refresh, and get the refresh status of checks. The following list describes the AWS Support case management operations:

• Service names, issue categories, and available severity levels - The [DescribeServices] and [DescribeSeverityLevels] operations return AWS service names, service codes, service categories, and problem severity levels. You use these values when you call the [CreateCase] operation.

• Case creation, case details, and case resolution - The [CreateCase], [DescribeCases], [DescribeAttachment], and [ResolveCase] operations create AWS Support cases, retrieve information about cases, and resolve cases.

• Case communication - The [DescribeCommunications], [AddCommunicationToCase], and [AddAttachmentsToSet] operations retrieve and add communications and attachments to AWS Support cases.

The following list describes the operations available from the AWS Support service for Trusted Advisor:

• [DescribeTrustedAdvisorChecks] returns the list of checks that run against your AWS resources.

• Using the checkId for a specific check returned by [DescribeTrustedAdvisorChecks], you can call [DescribeTrustedAdvisorCheckResult] to obtain the results for the check that you specified.

• [DescribeTrustedAdvisorCheckSummaries] returns summarized results for one or more Trusted Advisor checks.

• [RefreshTrustedAdvisorCheck] requests that Trusted Advisor rerun a specified check.

• [DescribeTrustedAdvisorCheckRefreshStatuses] reports the refresh status of one or more checks.

For authentication of requests, AWS Support uses Signature Version 4 Signing Process. See About the AWS Support API in the AWS Support User Guide for information about how to use this service to create and manage your support cases, and how to call Trusted Advisor for results of checks on your resources.

Requirements

addAttachmentsToSet(input:completion:)

Adds one or more attachments to an attachment set. An attachment set is a temporary container for attachments that you add to a case or case communication. The set is available for 1 hour after it’s created. The expiryTime returned in the response is when the set expires.

func addAttachmentsToSet(input: AddAttachmentsToSetInput, completion: @escaping (ClientRuntime.SdkResult<AddAttachmentsToSetOutputResponse, AddAttachmentsToSetOutputError>) -> Void)

• You must have a Business or Enterprise Support plan to use the AWS Support API.

• If you call the AWS Support API from an account that does not have a Business or Enterprise Support plan, the SubscriptionRequiredException error message appears. For information about changing your support plan, see AWS Support.

addCommunicationToCase(input:completion:)

Adds additional customer communication to an AWS Support case. Use the caseId parameter to identify the case to which to add communication. You can list a set of email addresses to copy on the communication by using the ccEmailAddresses parameter. The communicationBody value contains the text of the communication.

func addCommunicationToCase(input: AddCommunicationToCaseInput, completion: @escaping (ClientRuntime.SdkResult<AddCommunicationToCaseOutputResponse, AddCommunicationToCaseOutputError>) -> Void)

• You must have a Business or Enterprise Support plan to use the AWS Support API.

• If you call the AWS Support API from an account that does not have a Business or Enterprise Support plan, the SubscriptionRequiredException error message appears. For information about changing your support plan, see AWS Support.

createCase(input:completion:)

Creates a case in the AWS Support Center. This operation is similar to how you create a case in the AWS Support Center Create Case page. The AWS Support API doesn’t support requesting service limit increases. You can submit a service limit increase in the following ways:

func createCase(input: CreateCaseInput, completion: @escaping (ClientRuntime.SdkResult<CreateCaseOutputResponse, CreateCaseOutputError>) -> Void)

• Submit a request from the AWS Support Center Create Case page.

• Use the Service Quotas RequestServiceQuotaIncrease operation.

A successful CreateCase request returns an AWS Support case number. You can use the [DescribeCases] operation and specify the case number to get existing AWS Support cases. After you create a case, use the [AddCommunicationToCase] operation to add additional communication or attachments to an existing case. The caseId is separate from the displayId that appears in the AWS Support Center. Use the [DescribeCases] operation to get the displayId.

• You must have a Business or Enterprise Support plan to use the AWS Support API.

• If you call the AWS Support API from an account that does not have a Business or Enterprise Support plan, the SubscriptionRequiredException error message appears. For information about changing your support plan, see AWS Support.

describeAttachment(input:completion:)

Returns the attachment that has the specified ID. Attachments can include screenshots, error logs, or other files that describe your issue. Attachment IDs are generated by the case management system when you add an attachment to a case or case communication. Attachment IDs are returned in the [AttachmentDetails] objects that are returned by the [DescribeCommunications] operation.

func describeAttachment(input: DescribeAttachmentInput, completion: @escaping (ClientRuntime.SdkResult<DescribeAttachmentOutputResponse, DescribeAttachmentOutputError>) -> Void)

• You must have a Business or Enterprise Support plan to use the AWS Support API.

• If you call the AWS Support API from an account that does not have a Business or Enterprise Support plan, the SubscriptionRequiredException error message appears. For information about changing your support plan, see AWS Support.

describeCases(input:completion:)

Returns a list of cases that you specify by passing one or more case IDs. You can use the afterTime and beforeTime parameters to filter the cases by date. You can set values for the includeResolvedCases and includeCommunications parameters to specify how much information to return. The response returns the following in JSON format:

func describeCases(input: DescribeCasesInput, completion: @escaping (ClientRuntime.SdkResult<DescribeCasesOutputResponse, DescribeCasesOutputError>) -> Void)

• One or more CaseDetails data types.

• One or more nextToken values, which specify where to paginate the returned records represented by the CaseDetails objects.

Case data is available for 12 months after creation. If a case was created more than 12 months ago, a request might return an error.

• You must have a Business or Enterprise Support plan to use the AWS Support API.

• If you call the AWS Support API from an account that does not have a Business or Enterprise Support plan, the SubscriptionRequiredException error message appears. For information about changing your support plan, see AWS Support.

describeCommunications(input:completion:)

Returns communications and attachments for one or more support cases. Use the afterTime and beforeTime parameters to filter by date. You can use the caseId parameter to restrict the results to a specific case. Case data is available for 12 months after creation. If a case was created more than 12 months ago, a request for data might cause an error. You can use the maxResults and nextToken parameters to control the pagination of the results. Set maxResults to the number of cases that you want to display on each page, and use nextToken to specify the resumption of pagination.

func describeCommunications(input: DescribeCommunicationsInput, completion: @escaping (ClientRuntime.SdkResult<DescribeCommunicationsOutputResponse, DescribeCommunicationsOutputError>) -> Void)

• You must have a Business or Enterprise Support plan to use the AWS Support API.
