The following example shows you how to request details about a handshake. The handshake ID comes either from the original call to “InviteAccountToOrganization”, or from a call to “ListHandshakesForAccount” or “ListHandshakesForOrganization”:

response = client.describe_handshake(
    HandshakeId='h-examplehandshakeid111',
)

print(response)
