Request Syntax

response = client.describe_image_usage_report_entries(
    ImageIds=[
        'string',
    ],
    ReportIds=[
        'string',
    ],
    NextToken='string',
    Filters=[
        {
            'Name': 'string',
            'Values': [
                'string',
            ]
        },
    ],
    DryRun=True|False,
    MaxResults=123
)

Parameters:

• ImageIds (list) –

  The IDs of the images for filtering the report entries. If specified, only report entries containing these images are returned.

  • (string) –

• ReportIds (list) –

  The IDs of the usage reports.

  • (string) –

• NextToken (string) – The token returned from a previous paginated request. Pagination continues from the end of the items returned by the previous request.

• Filters (list) –

  The filters.

  • account-id - A 12-digit Amazon Web Services account ID.

  • creation-time - The time when the report was created, in the ISO 8601 format in the UTC time zone (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sssZ), for example, 2025-11-29T11:04:43.305Z. You can use a wildcard ( *), for example, 2025-11-29T*, which matches an entire day.

  • resource-type - The resource type ( ec2:Instance | ec2:LaunchTemplate).

  • (dict) –

    A filter name and value pair that is used to return a more specific list of results from a describe operation. Filters can be used to match a set of resources by specific criteria, such as tags, attributes, or IDs.

    If you specify multiple filters, the filters are joined with an AND, and the request returns only results that match all of the specified filters.

    For more information, see List and filter using the CLI and API in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

    • Name (string) –

      The name of the filter. Filter names are case-sensitive.

    • Values (list) –

      The filter values. Filter values are case-sensitive. If you specify multiple values for a filter, the values are joined with an OR, and the request returns all results that match any of the specified values.

      • (string) –

• DryRun (boolean) – Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation. Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation.

• MaxResults (integer) – The maximum number of items to return for this request. To get the next page of items, make another request with the token returned in the output. For more information, see Pagination.
