generate_query

Operation

generate_query async

generate_query(input: GenerateQueryInput, plugins: list[Plugin] | None = None) -> GenerateQueryOutput

Generates a query from a natural language prompt. This operation uses generative artificial intelligence (generative AI) to produce a ready-to-use SQL query from the prompt.

The prompt can be a question or a statement about the event data in your event data store. For example, you can enter prompts like "What are my top errors in the past month?" and "Give me a list of users that used SNS."

The prompt must be in English. For information about limitations, permissions, and supported Regions, see Create CloudTrail Lake queries from natural language prompts in the CloudTrail user guide.

Note

Do not include any personally identifying, confidential, or sensitive information in your prompts.

This feature uses generative AI large language models (LLMs); we recommend double-checking the LLM response.

required
plugins list[Plugin] | None

A list of callables that modify the configuration dynamically. Changes made by these plugins only apply for the duration of the operation execution and will not affect any other operation invocations.
