# ImplementationDetails
<a name="API_ImplementationDetails"></a>

An object that describes the implementation type for a control.

Our `ImplementationDetails` `Type` format has three required segments:
+  `SERVICE-PROVIDER::SERVICE-NAME::RESOURCE-NAME` 

For example, `AWS::Config::ConfigRule` **or** `AWS::SecurityHub::SecurityControl` resources have the format with three required segments.

Our `ImplementationDetails` `Type` format has an optional fourth segment, which is present for applicable implementation types. The format is as follows: 
+  `SERVICE-PROVIDER::SERVICE-NAME::RESOURCE-NAME::RESOURCE-TYPE-DESCRIPTION` 

For example, `AWS::Organizations::Policy::SERVICE_CONTROL_POLICY` **or** `AWS::CloudFormation::Type::HOOK` have the format with four segments.

Although the format is similar, the values for the `Type` field do not match any AWS CloudFormation values.
