GuardDuty / Client / create_members

create_members

GuardDuty.Client.create_members(**kwargs)

Creates member accounts of the current Amazon Web Services account by specifying a list of Amazon Web Services account IDs. This step is a prerequisite for managing the associated member accounts either by invitation or through an organization.

As a delegated administrator, using CreateMembers will enable GuardDuty in the added member accounts, with the exception of the organization delegated administrator account. A delegated administrator must enable GuardDuty prior to being added as a member.

If you are adding accounts by invitation, before using InviteMembers, use CreateMembers after GuardDuty has been enabled in potential member accounts.

If you disassociate a member from a GuardDuty delegated administrator, the member account details obtained from this API, including the associated email addresses, will be retained. This is done so that the delegated administrator can invoke the InviteMembers API without the need to invoke the CreateMembers API again. To remove the details associated with a member account, the delegated administrator must invoke the DeleteMembers API.
