Overview
Constructs a service interface object. Each API operation is exposed as a function on service.
Service Description
The Health API provides access to the Health information that appears in the Health Dashboard. You can use the API operations to get information about events that might affect your Amazon Web Services and resources.
You must have a Business, Enterprise On-Ramp, or Enterprise Support plan from Amazon Web Services Support to use the Health API. If you call the Health API from an Amazon Web Services account that doesn't have a Business, Enterprise On-Ramp, or Enterprise Support plan, you receive a SubscriptionRequiredException
error.
For API access, you need an access key ID and a secret access key. Use temporary credentials instead of long-term access keys when possible. Temporary credentials include an access key ID, a secret access key, and a security token that indicates when the credentials expire. For more information, see Best practices for managing Amazon Web Services access keys in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.
You can use the Health endpoint health.us-east-1.amazonaws.com (HTTPS) to call the Health API operations. Health supports a multi-Region application architecture and has two regional endpoints in an active-passive configuration. You can use the high availability endpoint example to determine which Amazon Web Services Region is active, so that you can get the latest information from the API. For more information, see Accessing the Health API in the Health User Guide.
For authentication of requests, Health uses the Signature Version 4 Signing Process.
If your Amazon Web Services account is part of Organizations, you can use the Health organizational view feature. This feature provides a centralized view of Health events across all accounts in your organization. You can aggregate Health events in real time to identify accounts in your organization that are affected by an operational event or get notified of security vulnerabilities. Use the organizational view API operations to enable this feature and return event information. For more information, see Aggregating Health events in the Health User Guide.
- Use the eventScopeCode parameter to specify whether to return Health events that are public or account-specific.
- Use pagination to view all events from the response. For example, if you call the
DescribeEventsForOrganization
operation to get all events in your organization, you might receive several page results. Specify thenextToken
in the next request to return more results.
Sending a Request Using Health
var health = new AWS.Health();
health.describeAffectedAccountsForOrganization(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 Health object uses this specific API, you can
construct the object by passing the apiVersion
option to the constructor:
var health = new AWS.Health({apiVersion: '2016-08-04'});
You can also set the API version globally in AWS.config.apiVersions
using
the health service identifier:
AWS.config.apiVersions = {
health: '2016-08-04',
// other service API versions
};
var health = new AWS.Health();

Method Details
describeAffectedAccountsForOrganization(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Returns a list of accounts in the organization from Organizations that are affected by the provided event. For more information about the different types of Health events, see Event.
Before you can call this operation, you must first enable Health to work with Organizations. To do this, call the EnableHealthServiceAccessForOrganization operation from your organization's management account.
nextToken
parameter in the next request to return more results. describeAffectedEntities(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Returns a list of entities that have been affected by the specified events, based on the specified filter criteria. Entities can refer to individual customer resources, groups of customer resources, or any other construct, depending on the Amazon Web Service. Events that have impact beyond that of the affected entities, or where the extent of impact is unknown, include at least one entity indicating this.
At least one event ARN is required.
- This API operation uses pagination. Specify the
nextToken
parameter in the next request to return more results. - This operation supports resource-level permissions. You can use this operation to allow or deny access to specific Health events. For more information, see Resource- and action-based conditions in the Health User Guide.
describeAffectedEntitiesForOrganization(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Returns a list of entities that have been affected by one or more events for one or more accounts in your organization in Organizations, based on the filter criteria. Entities can refer to individual customer resources, groups of customer resources, or any other construct, depending on the Amazon Web Service.
At least one event Amazon Resource Name (ARN) and account ID are required.
Before you can call this operation, you must first enable Health to work with Organizations. To do this, call the EnableHealthServiceAccessForOrganization operation from your organization's management account.
- This API operation uses pagination. Specify the
nextToken
parameter in the next request to return more results. - This operation doesn't support resource-level permissions. You can't use this operation to allow or deny access to specific Health events. For more information, see Resource- and action-based conditions in the Health User Guide.
describeEntityAggregates(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Returns the number of entities that are affected by each of the specified events.
describeEntityAggregatesForOrganization(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Returns a list of entity aggregates for your Organizations that are affected by each of the specified events.
describeEventAggregates(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Returns the number of events of each event type (issue, scheduled change, and account notification). If no filter is specified, the counts of all events in each category are returned.
nextToken
parameter in the next request to return more results. describeEventDetails(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Returns detailed information about one or more specified events. Information includes standard event data (Amazon Web Services Region, service, and so on, as returned by DescribeEvents), a detailed event description, and possible additional metadata that depends upon the nature of the event. Affected entities are not included. To retrieve the entities, use the DescribeAffectedEntities operation.
If a specified event can't be retrieved, an error message is returned for that event.
describeEventDetailsForOrganization(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Returns detailed information about one or more specified events for one or more Amazon Web Services accounts in your organization. This information includes standard event data (such as the Amazon Web Services Region and service), an event description, and (depending on the event) possible metadata. This operation doesn't return affected entities, such as the resources related to the event. To return affected entities, use the DescribeAffectedEntitiesForOrganization operation.
When you call the DescribeEventDetailsForOrganization
operation, specify the organizationEventDetailFilters
object in the request. Depending on the Health event type, note the following differences:
-
To return event details for a public event, you must specify a null value for the
awsAccountId
parameter. If you specify an account ID for a public event, Health returns an error message because public events aren't specific to an account. -
To return event details for an event that is specific to an account in your organization, you must specify the
awsAccountId
parameter in the request. If you don't specify an account ID, Health returns an error message because the event is specific to an account in your organization.
For more information, see Event.
describeEvents(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Returns information about events that meet the specified filter criteria. Events are returned in a summary form and do not include the detailed description, any additional metadata that depends on the event type, or any affected resources. To retrieve that information, use the DescribeEventDetails and DescribeAffectedEntities operations.
If no filter criteria are specified, all events are returned. Results are sorted by lastModifiedTime
, starting with the most recent event.
- When you call the
DescribeEvents
operation and specify an entity for theentityValues
parameter, Health might return public events that aren't specific to that resource. For example, if you callDescribeEvents
and specify an ID for an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance, Health might return events that aren't specific to that resource or service. To get events that are specific to a service, use theservices
parameter in thefilter
object. For more information, see Event. - This API operation uses pagination. Specify the
nextToken
parameter in the next request to return more results.
describeEventsForOrganization(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Returns information about events across your organization in Organizations. You can use thefilters
parameter to specify the events that you want to return. Events are returned in a summary form and don't include the affected accounts, detailed description, any additional metadata that depends on the event type, or any affected resources. To retrieve that information, use the following operations:
If you don't specify a filter
, the DescribeEventsForOrganizations
returns all events across your organization. Results are sorted by lastModifiedTime
, starting with the most recent event.
For more information about the different types of Health events, see Event.
Before you can call this operation, you must first enable Health to work with Organizations. To do this, call the EnableHealthServiceAccessForOrganization operation from your organization's management account.
nextToken
parameter in the next request to return more results. describeEventTypes(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Returns the event types that meet the specified filter criteria. You can use this API operation to find information about the Health event, such as the category, Amazon Web Service, and event code. The metadata for each event appears in the EventType object.
If you don't specify a filter criteria, the API operation returns all event types, in no particular order.
nextToken
parameter in the next request to return more results. describeHealthServiceStatusForOrganization(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
This operation provides status information on enabling or disabling Health to work with your organization. To call this operation, you must use the organization's management account.
disableHealthServiceAccessForOrganization(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Disables Health from working with Organizations. To call this operation, you must sign in to the organization's management account. For more information, see Aggregating Health events in the Health User Guide.
This operation doesn't remove the service-linked role from the management account in your organization. You must use the IAM console, API, or Command Line Interface (CLI) to remove the service-linked role. For more information, see Deleting a Service-Linked Role in the IAM User Guide.
enableHealthServiceAccessForOrganization(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request
Enables Health to work with Organizations. You can use the organizational view feature to aggregate events from all Amazon Web Services accounts in your organization in a centralized location.
This operation also creates a service-linked role for the management account in the organization.
- You must have a Business, Enterprise On-Ramp, or Enterprise Support plan from Amazon Web Services Support to use the Health API. If you call the Health API from an Amazon Web Services account that doesn't have a Business, Enterprise On-Ramp, or Enterprise Support plan, you receive a
SubscriptionRequiredException
error. - You must have permission to call this operation from the organization's management account. For example IAM policies, see Health identity-based policy examples.
If you don't have the required support plan, you can instead use the Health console to enable the organizational view feature. For more information, see Aggregating Health events in the Health User Guide.
