About StartMalwareScan

Initiates the malware scan. Invoking this API will automatically create the Service-linked role in the corresponding account if the resourceArn belongs to an EC2 instance.

When the malware scan starts, you can use the associated scan ID to track the status of the scan. For more information, see ListMalwareScans and GetMalwareScan.

When you use this API, the Amazon Web Services service terms for GuardDuty Malware Protection apply. For more information, see Amazon Web Services service terms for GuardDuty Malware Protection.

Syntax Example

This is an example of the syntax for calling the method. It includes every possible argument and initializes every possible value. The data provided is not necessarily semantically accurate (for example the value "string" may be provided for something that is intended to be an instance ID, or in some cases two arguments may be mutually exclusive). The syntax shows the ABAP syntax for creating the various data structures.

DATA(lo_result) = lo_client->startmalwarescan(
  io_scanconfiguration = new /aws1/cl_gdystrtmalwarescanc00(
    io_incrementalscandetails = new /aws1/cl_gdyincrementalscand00( |string| )
    io_recoverypoint = new /aws1/cl_gdyrecoverypoint( |string| )
    iv_role = |string|
  )
  iv_clienttoken = |string|
  iv_resourcearn = |string|
).

This is an example of reading all possible response values

lo_result = lo_result.
IF lo_result IS NOT INITIAL.
  lv_nonemptystring = lo_result->get_scanid( ).
ENDIF.
