DescribeApplications
Returns the descriptions of existing applications.
This action only returns information about applications that the calling principle has IAM permissions to access. For example, consider a case where a user only has permission to access two of three applications. When the user calls the DescribeApplications action, the response will only include the two applications that the user has permission to access instead of all three applications. If the user doesn’t have access to any of the applications an empty result is returned.
