    [REQUIRED]

    The target resource type of the recommendation preference for which to return preferences.

    • name (string) –

      The name of the scope.

      The following scopes are possible:

      • Organization - Specifies that the recommendation preference applies at the organization level, for all member accounts of an organization.

      • AccountId - Specifies that the recommendation preference applies at the account level, for all resources of a given resource type in an account.

      • ResourceArn - Specifies that the recommendation preference applies at the individual resource level.

    • value (string) –

      The value of the scope.

      If you specified the name of the scope as:

      • Organization - The value must be ALL_ACCOUNTS.

      • AccountId - The value must be a 12-digit Amazon Web Services account ID.

      • ResourceArn - The value must be the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an EC2 instance or an Auto Scaling group.

      Only EC2 instance and Auto Scaling group ARNs are currently supported.

  • nextToken (string) – The token to advance to the next page of recommendation preferences.

  • maxResults (integer) –

    The maximum number of recommendation preferences to return with a single request.

    To retrieve the remaining results, make another request with the returned nextToken value.
