```
{
   "Filters": [ 
      { 
         "Name": "string",
         "Values": [ "string" ]
      }
   ],

}
```

## Request Parameters
<a name="API_DescribeEndpointTypes_RequestParameters"></a>

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see [Common Parameters](CommonParameters.md).

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

 ** [Filters](#API_DescribeEndpointTypes_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="DMS-DescribeEndpointTypes-request-Filters"></a>
Filters applied to the endpoint types.  
Valid filter names: engine-name \$1 endpoint-type  
Type: Array of [Filter](API_Filter.md) objects  
Required: No

 ** [Marker](#API_DescribeEndpointTypes_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="DMS-DescribeEndpointTypes-request-Marker"></a>
 An optional pagination token provided by a previous request. If this parameter is specified, the response includes only records beyond the marker, up to the value specified by `MaxRecords`.   
Type: String  
Required: No

 ** [MaxRecords](#API_DescribeEndpointTypes_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="DMS-DescribeEndpointTypes-request-MaxRecords"></a>
 The maximum number of records to include in the response. If more records exist than the specified `MaxRecords` value, a pagination token called a marker is included in the response so that the remaining results can be retrieved.   
Default: 100  
Constraints: Minimum 20, maximum 100.  
Type: Integer  
Required: No

## Response Syntax
<a name="API_DescribeEndpointTypes_ResponseSyntax"></a>

```

   "SupportedEndpointTypes": [ 
      { 
         "EndpointType": "string",
         "EngineDisplayName": "string",
         "EngineName": "string",
         "ReplicationInstanceEngineMinimumVersion": "string",
         "SupportsCDC": boolean
      }
   ]
}
```

## Response Elements
<a name="API_DescribeEndpointTypes_ResponseElements"></a>

If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.

The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.

 ** [Marker](#API_DescribeEndpointTypes_ResponseSyntax) **   <a name="DMS-DescribeEndpointTypes-response-Marker"></a>
 An optional pagination token provided by a previous request. If this parameter is specified, the response includes only records beyond the marker, up to the value specified by `MaxRecords`.   
Type: String

 ** [SupportedEndpointTypes](#API_DescribeEndpointTypes_ResponseSyntax) **   <a name="DMS-DescribeEndpointTypes-response-SupportedEndpointTypes"></a>
The types of endpoints that are supported.  
Type: Array of [SupportedEndpointType](API_SupportedEndpointType.md) objects

## Errors
