describe_remediation_exceptions

describe_remediation_exceptions(**kwargs)

Returns the details of one or more remediation exceptions. A detailed view of a remediation exception for a set of resources that includes an explanation of an exception and the time when the exception will be deleted. When you specify the limit and the next token, you receive a paginated response.

Note

Config generates a remediation exception when a problem occurs executing a remediation action to a specific resource. Remediation exceptions blocks auto-remediation until the exception is cleared.

When you specify the limit and the next token, you receive a paginated response.

Limit and next token are not applicable if you request resources in batch. It is only applicable, when you request all resources.
