Parameter
Type
Description
Limit
number | undefined

The maximum number of results to return. Use this parameter with NextToken to get results as a set of sequential pages.

Name
string | undefined

A descriptive label that is associated with an alias. Alias names do not need to be unique.

NextToken
string | undefined

A token that indicates the start of the next sequential page of results. Use the token that is returned with a previous call to this operation. To start at the beginning of the result set, do not specify a value.

RoutingStrategyType
RoutingStrategyType | undefined

The routing type to filter results on. Use this parameter to retrieve only aliases with a certain routing type. To retrieve all aliases, leave this parameter empty.

Possible routing types include the following:

  • SIMPLE -- The alias resolves to one specific fleet. Use this type when routing to active fleets.

  • TERMINAL -- The alias does not resolve to a fleet but instead can be used to display a message to the user. A terminal alias throws a TerminalRoutingStrategyException with the RoutingStrategy  message embedded.
