You can specify Accounts or DeploymentTargets, but not both.

Required: No

CallAs

[Service-managed permissions] Specifies whether you are acting as an account administrator in the organization's management account or as a delegated administrator in a member account.

By default, SELF is specified. Use SELF for stack sets with self-managed permissions.

If you are signed in to the management account, specify SELF.

[Service-managed permissions] The AWS Organizations accounts from which to delete stack instances.

You can specify Accounts or DeploymentTargets, but not both.

Type: DeploymentTargets object

The unique identifier for this stack set operation.

The operation ID also functions as an idempotency token, to ensure that CloudFormation performs the stack set operation only once, even if you retry the request multiple times. You can retry stack set operation requests to ensure that CloudFormation successfully received them.

Repeating this stack set operation with a new operation ID retries all stack instances whose status is OUTDATED.
