The Health API provides programmatic access to the Health information that appears in the Personal Health Dashboard. You can use the API operations to get information about events that might affect your Amazon Web Services services and resources.
You must have a Business, Enterprise On-Ramp, or Enterprise Support plan from Amazon Web Services Support to use the Health API. If you call the Health API from an Amazon Web Services account that doesn't have a Business, Enterprise On-Ramp, or Enterprise Support plan, you receive a SubscriptionRequiredException error.
You can use the Health endpoint health.us-east-1.amazonaws.com (HTTPS) to call the Health API operations. Health supports a multi-Region application architecture and has two regional endpoints in an active-passive configuration. You can use the high availability endpoint example to determine which Amazon Web Services Region is active, so that you can get the latest information from the API. For more information, see Accessing the Health API in the Health User Guide.
For authentication of requests, Health uses the Signature Version 4 Signing Process.
If your Amazon Web Services account is part of Organizations, you can use the Health organizational view feature. This feature provides a centralized view of Health events across all accounts in your organization. You can aggregate Health events in real time to identify accounts in your organization that are affected by an operational event or get notified of security vulnerabilities. Use the organizational view API operations to enable this feature and return event information. For more information, see Aggregating Health events in the Health User Guide.
When you use the Health API operations to return Health events, see the following recommendations:
Use the eventScopeCode parameter to specify whether to return Health events that are public or account-specific.
Use pagination to view all events from the response. For example, if you call the DescribeEventsForOrganization operation to get all events in your organization, you might receive several page results. Specify the nextToken in the next request to return more results.
Returns a list of entities that have been affected by the specified events, based on the specified filter criteria. Entities can refer to individual customer resources, groups of customer resources, or any other construct, depending on the Amazon Web Services service. Events that have impact beyond that of the affected entities, or where the extent of impact is unknown, include at least one entity indicating this.
At least one event ARN is required.
This API operation uses pagination. Specify the nextToken parameter in the next request to return more results.
This operation supports resource-level permissions. You can use this operation to allow or deny access to specific Health events. For more information, see Resource- and action-based conditions in the Health User Guide.
