list-create-account-status¶

Description¶

Lists the account creation requests that match the specified status that is currently being tracked for the organization.

Note

Always check the NextToken response parameter for a null value when calling a List* operation. These operations can occasionally return an empty set of results even when there are more results available. The NextToken response parameter value is null only when there are no more results to display.

This operation can be called only from the organization’s management account or by a member account that is a delegated administrator for an AWS service.

Synopsis¶

  list-create-account-status
[--states <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--starting-token <value>]
[--page-size <value>]
[--max-items <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--states (list)

A list of one or more states that you want included in the response. If this parameter isn’t present, all requests are included in the response.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

Where valid values are:
  IN_PROGRESS
  SUCCEEDED
  FAILED

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--starting-token (string)

A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previously truncated response.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--page-size (integer)

The size of each page to get in the AWS service call. This does not affect the number of items returned in the command’s output. Setting a smaller page size results in more calls to the AWS service, retrieving fewer items in each call. This can help prevent the AWS service calls from timing out.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--max-items (integer)

The total number of items to return in the command’s output. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified, a NextToken is provided in the command’s output. To resume pagination, provide the NextToken value in the starting-token argument of a subsequent command. Do not use the NextToken response element directly outside of the AWS CLI.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

Example 1: To retrieve a list of the account creation requests made in the current organization

The following example shows how to request a list of account creation requests for an organization that have completed successfully:

aws organizations list-create-account-status --states SUCCEEDED

The output includes an array of objects with information about each request.

{
        "CreateAccountStatuses": [
                {
                        "AccountId": "444444444444",
                        "AccountName": "Developer Test Account",
                        "CompletedTimeStamp": 1481835812.143,
                        "Id": "car-examplecreateaccountrequestid111",
                        "RequestedTimeStamp": 1481829432.531,
                        "State": "SUCCEEDED"
                }
        ]
}

Example 2: To retrieve a list of the in progress account creation requests made in the current organization

The following example gets a list of in-progress account creation requests for an organization:

aws organizations list-create-account-status --states IN_PROGRESS

The output includes an array of objects with information about each request.

{
        "CreateAccountStatuses": [
                {
                  "State": "IN_PROGRESS",
                  "Id": "car-examplecreateaccountrequestid111",
                  "RequestedTimeStamp": 1481829432.531,
                  "AccountName": "Production Account"
                }
        ]
}

Output¶

CreateAccountStatuses -> (list)

A list of objects with details about the requests. Certain elements, such as the accountId number, are present in the output only after the account has been successfully created.

(structure)

Contains the status about a CreateAccount or CreateGovCloudAccount request to create an AWS account or an AWS GovCloud (US) account in an organization.

Id -> (string)

The unique identifier (ID) that references this request. You get this value from the response of the initial CreateAccount request to create the account.

The regex pattern for a create account request ID string requires “car-” followed by from 8 to 32 lowercase letters or digits.

AccountName -> (string)

The account name given to the account when it was created.

State -> (string)

The status of the request.

RequestedTimestamp -> (timestamp)

The date and time that the request was made for the account creation.

CompletedTimestamp -> (timestamp)

The date and time that the account was created and the request completed.

AccountId -> (string)

If the account was created successfully, the unique identifier (ID) of the new account.

The regex pattern for an account ID string requires exactly 12 digits.

GovCloudAccountId -> (string)

If the account was created successfully, the unique identifier (ID) of the new account in the AWS GovCloud (US) Region.

FailureReason -> (string)

If the request failed, a description of the reason for the failure.

ACCOUNT_LIMIT_EXCEEDED: The account could not be created because you have reached the limit on the number of accounts in your organization.

CONCURRENT_ACCOUNT_MODIFICATION: You already submitted a request with the same information.

EMAIL_ALREADY_EXISTS: The account could not be created because another AWS account with that email address already exists.

GOVCLOUD_ACCOUNT_ALREADY_EXISTS: The account in the AWS GovCloud (US) Region could not be created because this Region already includes an account with that email address.

INVALID_ADDRESS: The account could not be created because the address you provided is not valid.

INVALID_EMAIL: The account could not be created because the email address you provided is not valid.

INTERNAL_FAILURE: The account could not be created because of an internal failure. Try again later. If the problem persists, contact Customer Support.

MISSING_BUSINESS_VALIDATION: The AWS account that owns your organization has not received Business Validation.

MISSING_PAYMENT_INSTRUMENT: You must configure the management account with a valid payment method, such as a credit card.

NextToken -> (string)

If present, indicates that more output is available than is included in the current response. Use this value in the NextToken request parameter in a subsequent call to the operation to get the next part of the output. You should repeat this until the NextToken response element comes back as null .
