get_parameters¶

SSM.Client.get_parameters(**kwargs)¶

Get information about one or more parameters by specifying multiple parameter names.

Note

To get information about a single parameter, you can use the GetParameter operation instead.

Parameter names can’t contain spaces. The service removes any spaces specified for the beginning or end of a parameter name. If the specified name for a parameter contains spaces between characters, the request fails with a ValidationException error.

Request Syntax

response = client.get_parameters(
    Names=[
        'string',
    ],
    WithDecryption=True|False
)

Parameters:

Names (list) –
[REQUIRED]

The names or Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) of the parameters that you want to query. For parameters shared with you from another account, you must use the full ARNs.

To query by parameter label, use "Name": "name:label". To query by parameter version, use "Name": "name:version".

Note
The results for GetParameters requests are listed in alphabetical order in query responses.

For information about shared parameters, see Working with shared parameters in the Amazon Web Services Systems Manager User Guide.
