GetResourceConfigHistory
Important
For accurate reporting on the compliance status, you must record the AWS::Config::ResourceCompliance
resource type.
For more information, see Selecting Which Resources AWS Config Records.
Returns a list of ConfigurationItems
for the specified resource.
The list contains details about each state of the resource
during the specified time interval. If you specified a retention
period to retain your ConfigurationItems
between a
minimum of 30 days and a maximum of 7 years (2557 days), AWS Config
returns the ConfigurationItems
for the specified
retention period.
The response is paginated. By default, AWS Config returns a
limit of 10 configuration items per page. You can customize this
number with the limit
parameter. The response includes
a nextToken
string. To get the next page of results,
run the request again and specify the string for the
nextToken
parameter.
Note
Each call to the API is limited to span a duration of seven
days. It is likely that the number of records returned is
smaller than the specified limit
. In such cases,
you can make another call, using the
nextToken
.

Request Parameters
For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.
The request accepts the following data in JSON format.
- chronologicalOrder
-
The chronological order for configuration items listed. By default, the results are listed in reverse chronological order.
Type: String
Valid Values:
Reverse | Forward
Required: No
- earlierTime
-
The chronologically earliest time in the time range for which the history requested. If not specified, the action returns paginated results that contain configuration items that start when the first configuration item was recorded.
Type: Timestamp
Required: No
- laterTime
-
The chronologically latest time in the time range for which the history requested. If not specified, current time is taken.
Type: Timestamp
Required: No
- limit
-
The maximum number of configuration items returned on each page. The default is 10. You cannot specify a number greater than 100. If you specify 0, AWS Config uses the default.
Type: Integer
Valid Range: Minimum value of 0. Maximum value of 100.
Required: No
- nextToken
-
The
nextToken
string returned on a previous page that you use to get the next page of results in a paginated response.Type: String
Required: No
- resourceId
-
The ID of the resource (for example.,
sg-xxxxxx
).Type: String
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 768.
Required: Yes
- resourceType
-
The resource type.
