Request Syntax

response = client.list_documents(
    DocumentFilterList=[
        {
            'key': 'Name'|'Owner'|'PlatformTypes'|'DocumentType',
            'value': 'string'
        },
    ],
    Filters=[
        {
            'Key': 'string',
            'Values': [
                'string',
            ]
        },
    ],
    MaxResults=123,
    NextToken='string'
)
Parameters:

  • DocumentFilterList (list) –

    This data type is deprecated. Instead, use Filters.

    • (dict) –

      This data type is deprecated. Instead, use DocumentKeyValuesFilter.

      • key (string) – [REQUIRED]

        The name of the filter.

      • value (string) – [REQUIRED]

        The value of the filter.

  • Filters (list) –

    One or more DocumentKeyValuesFilter objects. Use a filter to return a more specific list of results. For keys, you can specify one or more key-value pair tags that have been applied to a document. Other valid keys include Owner, Name, PlatformTypes, DocumentType, and TargetType. For example, to return documents you own use Key=Owner,Values=Self. To specify a custom key-value pair, use the format Key=tag:tagName,Values=valueName.

    Note

    This API operation only supports filtering documents by using a single tag key and one or more tag values. For example: Key=tag:tagName,Values=valueName1,valueName2

    • (dict) –

      One or more filters. Use a filter to return a more specific list of documents.

      For keys, you can specify one or more tags that have been applied to a document.

      You can also use Amazon Web Services-provided keys, some of which have specific allowed values. These keys and their associated values are as follows:

      DocumentType

      • ApplicationConfiguration

      • ApplicationConfigurationSchema

      • Automation

      • ChangeCalendar

      • Command

      • Package

      • Policy

      • Session

        Owner

      Note that only one Owner can be specified in a request. For example: Key=Owner,Values=Self.

      • Amazon

      • Private

      • Public

      • Self

      • ThirdParty

        PlatformTypes

      • Linux

      • Windows

      Name is another Amazon Web Services-provided key. If you use Name as a key, you can use a name prefix to return a list of documents. For example, in the Amazon Web Services CLI, to return a list of all documents that begin with Te, run the following command:

      aws ssm list-documents --filters Key=Name,Values=Te

      You can also use the TargetType Amazon Web Services-provided key. For a list of valid resource type values that can be used with this key, see Amazon Web Services resource and property types reference in the CloudFormation User Guide.

      If you specify more than two keys, only documents that are identified by all the tags are returned in the results. If you specify more than two values for a key, documents that are identified by any of the values are returned in the results.

      To specify a custom key-value pair, use the format Key=tag:tagName,Values=valueName.

      For example, if you created a key called region and are using the Amazon Web Services CLI to call the list-documents command:

      aws ssm list-documents --filters Key=tag:region,Values=east,west Key=Owner,Values=Self

      • Key (string) –

        The name of the filter key.

      • Values (list) –

        The value for the filter key.

        • (string) –

  • MaxResults (integer) – The maximum number of items to return for this call. The call also returns a token that you can specify in a subsequent call to get the next set of results.

  • NextToken (string) – The token for the next set of items to return. (You received this token from a previous call.)

Return type:

dict
