can_paginate(operation_name)

Check if an operation can be paginated.

Parameters
operation_name (string) -- The operation name. This is the same name as the method name on the client. For example, if the method name is create_foo, and you'd normally invoke the operation as client.create_foo(**kwargs), if the create_foo operation can be paginated, you can use the call client.get_paginator("create_foo").
Returns
True if the operation can be paginated, False otherwise.
delete_alternate_contact(**kwargs)

Deletes the specified alternate contact from an Amazon Web Services account.

For complete details about how to use the alternate contact operations, see Access or updating the alternate contacts .

response = client.delete_alternate_contact(
    AccountId='string',
    AlternateContactType='BILLING'|'OPERATIONS'|'SECURITY'
)
Parameters
  • AccountId (string) --

    Specifies the 12 digit account ID number of the Amazon Web Services account that you want to access or modify with this operation.
