AWS CLI Command Reference

[ aws . organizations ]

disable-policy-type

Description

Disables an organizational policy type in a root. A policy of a certain type can be attached to entities in a root only if that type is enabled in the root. After you perform this operation, you no longer can attach policies of the specified type to that root or to any organizational unit (OU) or account in that root. You can undo this by using the EnablePolicyType operation.

This is an asynchronous request that Amazon Web Services performs in the background. If you disable a policy type for a root, it still appears enabled for the organization if all features are enabled for the organization. Amazon Web Services recommends that you first use ListRoots to see the status of policy types for a specified root, and then use this operation.

This operation can be called only from the organization’s management account.

To view the status of available policy types in the organization, use DescribeOrganization .

Options

--root-id (string)

The unique identifier (ID) of the root in which you want to disable a policy type. You can get the ID from the ListRoots operation.

The regex pattern for a root ID string requires “r-” followed by from 4 to 32 lowercase letters or digits.

--policy-type (string)

The policy type that you want to disable in this root. You can specify one of the following values:

Possible values:

  • SERVICE_CONTROL_POLICY

  • TAG_POLICY

  • BACKUP_POLICY

  • AISERVICES_OPT_OUT_POLICY

--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.

--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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json

  • text

  • table

  • yaml

  • yaml-stream

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on

  • off

  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-binary-format (string)

The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.

  • base64

  • raw-in-base64-out

--no-cli-pager (boolean)

Disable cli pager for output.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To disable a policy type in a root

The following example shows how to disable the service control policy (SCP) policy type in a root:

aws organizations disable-policy-type --root-id r-examplerootid111 --policy-type SERVICE_CONTROL_POLICY

The output shows that the PolicyTypes response element no longer includes SERVICE_CONTROL_POLICY:

{
        "Root": {
                "PolicyTypes": [],
                "Name": "Root",
                "Id": "r-examplerootid111",
                "Arn": "arn:aws:organizations::111111111111:root/o-exampleorgid/r-examplerootid111"
        }
}

Output

Root -> (structure)

A structure that shows the root with the updated list of enabled policy types.

Id -> (string)

The unique identifier (ID) for the root.

The regex pattern for a root ID string requires “r-” followed by from 4 to 32 lowercase letters or digits.

Arn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the root.

For more information about ARNs in Organizations, see ARN Formats Supported by Organizations in the Amazon Web Services Service Authorization Reference .

Name -> (string)

The friendly name of the root.

The regex pattern that is used to validate this parameter is a string of any of the characters in the ASCII character range.

PolicyTypes -> (list)

The types of policies that are currently enabled for the root and therefore can be attached to the root or to its OUs or accounts.

Note

Even if a policy type is shown as available in the organization, you can separately enable and disable them at the root level by using EnablePolicyType and DisablePolicyType . Use DescribeOrganization to see the availability of the policy types in that organization.

(structure)

Contains information about a policy type and its status in the associated root.

Type -> (string)

The name of the policy type.

Status -> (string)

The status of the policy type as it relates to the associated root. To attach a policy of the specified type to a root or to an OU or account in that root, it must be available in the organization and enabled for that root.
