            'Values': [
                'string',

        },
    ],
    MaxResults=123,
    NextToken='string'
)
Parameters
  • UserName (string) -- The name of the user

    • (dict) --

        The property values to filter on. For example, "user-123".

        • (string) --
  • MaxResults (integer) -- The maximum number of records to include in the response. If more records exist than the specified MaxResults value, a token is included in the response so that the remaining results can be retrieved.
  • NextToken (string) -- An optional argument to pass in case the total number of records exceeds the value of MaxResults. If nextToken is returned, there are more results available. The value of nextToken is a unique pagination token for each page. Make the call again using the returned token to retrieve the next page. Keep all other arguments unchanged.
