Description

Returns events related to DB instances, DB security groups, DB snapshots, and DB parameter groups for the past 14 days. Events specific to a particular DB instance, DB security group, database snapshot, or DB parameter group can be obtained by providing the name as a parameter. By default, the past hour of events are returned.

Usage

neptune_describe_events(SourceIdentifier, SourceType, StartTime,
  EndTime, Duration, EventCategories, Filters, MaxRecords, Marker)

Arguments

  • SourceIdentifier

    The identifier of the event source for which events are returned. If not specified, then all sources are included in the response.

    Constraints:

    • If SourceIdentifier is supplied, SourceType must also be provided.
    • If the source type is DBInstance, then a DBInstanceIdentifier must be supplied.
    • If the source type is DBSecurityGroup, a DBSecurityGroupName must be supplied.
    • If the source type is DBParameterGroup, a DBParameterGroupName must be supplied.
    • If the source type is DBSnapshot, a DBSnapshotIdentifier must be supplied.
    • Cannot end with a hyphen or contain two consecutive hyphens.

  • SourceType

    The event source to retrieve events for. If no value is specified, all events are returned.

  • StartTime

    The beginning of the time interval to retrieve events for, specified in ISO 8601 format. For more information about ISO 8601, go to the ISO8601 Wikipedia page.

    Example: 2009-07-08T18:00Z

  • EndTime

    The end of the time interval for which to retrieve events, specified in ISO 8601 format. For more information about ISO 8601, go to the ISO8601 Wikipedia page.

    Example: 2009-07-08T18:00Z

  • Duration

    The number of minutes to retrieve events for.

    Default: 60

  • EventCategories

    A list of event categories that trigger notifications for a event notification subscription.

  • Filters

    This parameter is not currently supported.

  • MaxRecords

    The maximum number of records to include in the response. If more records exist than the specified MaxRecords value, a pagination token called a marker is included in the response so that the remaining results can be retrieved.

    Default: 100

    Constraints: Minimum 20, maximum 100.

  • Marker

    An optional pagination token provided by a previous DescribeEvents request. If this parameter is specified, the response includes only records beyond the marker, up to the value specified by MaxRecords.
