Use a botocore.endpoint logger to parse the unique (rather than total) "resource:action" API calls made during a task, outputing the set to the resource_actions key in the task results. Use the aws_resource_action callback to output to total list made during a playbook. The ANSIBLE_DEBUG_BOTOCORE_LOGS environment variable may also be used.

ec2_url
string
|
Url to use to connect to EC2 or your Eucalyptus cloud (by default the module will use EC2 endpoints). Ignored for modules where region is required. Must be specified for all other modules if region is not used. If not set then the value of the EC2_URL environment variable, if any, is used.
|
|
|
filters
-
|
Default: {}
|
A dict of filters to apply. Each dict item consists of a filter key and a filter value. See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/API_DescribeSnapshots.html for possible filters. Filter names and values are case sensitive.
|
|
owner_ids
-
|
Default: []
|
If you specify one or more snapshot owners, only snapshots from the specified owners and for which you have access are returned.
|
|
profile
string
|
Uses a boto profile. Only works with boto >= 2.24.0.
|
|
|
region
string
|
The AWS region to use. If not specified then the value of the AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION environment variable, if any, is used. See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#ec2_region
aliases: aws_region, ec2_region |
|
|
restorable_by_user_ids
-
|
Default: []
|
If you specify a list of restorable users, only snapshots with create snapshot permissions for those users are returned.
|
|
security_token
string
|
AWS STS security token. If not set then the value of the AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN or EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN environment variable is used.
aliases: access_token |
|
|
snapshot_ids
-
|
Default: []
|
If you specify one or more snapshot IDs, only snapshots that have the specified IDs are returned.
|
|
validate_certs
boolean
|
|
When set to "no", SSL certificates will not be validated for boto versions >= 2.6.0.
|
Notes¶
Note
By default, the module will return all snapshots, including public ones. To limit results to snapshots owned by the account use the filter ‘owner-id’.
If parameters are not set within the module, the following environment variables can be used in decreasing order of precedence
AWS_URLorEC2_URL,AWS_ACCESS_KEY_IDorAWS_ACCESS_KEYorEC2_ACCESS_KEY,AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEYorAWS_SECRET_KEYorEC2_SECRET_KEY,AWS_SECURITY_TOKENorEC2_SECURITY_TOKEN,AWS_REGIONorEC2_REGIONAnsible uses the boto configuration file (typically ~/.boto) if no credentials are provided. See https://boto.readthedocs.io/en/latest/boto_config_tut.html
AWS_REGIONorEC2_REGIONcan be typically be used to specify the AWS region, when required, but this can also be configured in the boto config file

Return Values¶
Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:
| Key | Returned | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
data_encryption_key_id
string
|
always |
The data encryption key identifier for the snapshot. This value is a unique identifier that corresponds to the data encryption key that was used to encrypt the original volume or snapshot copy.

always |
Indicates whether the snapshot is encrypted.
Sample:
True
