The agent or the Connector IDs for which you want information. If you specify no IDs, the system returns information about all agents/Connectors associated with your AWS user account.
You can filter the request using various logical operators and a key -value format. For example:

A conditional operator. The following operators are valid: EQUALS, NOT_EQUALS, CONTAINS, NOT_CONTAINS. If you specify multiple filters, the system utilizes all filters as though concatenated by AND . If you specify multiple values for a particular filter, the system differentiates the values using OR . Calling either DescribeConfigurations or ListConfigurations returns attributes of matching configuration items.
