IdentityStore.Client.list_groups(**kwargs)

Lists all groups in the identity store. Returns a paginated list of complete Group objects. Filtering for a Group by the DisplayName attribute is deprecated. Instead, use the GetGroupId API action.

Request Syntax

response = client.list_groups(
    IdentityStoreId='string',
    MaxResults=123,
    NextToken='string',
    Filters=[
        {
            'AttributePath': 'string',
            'AttributeValue': 'string'
        },
    ]
)
Parameters:

  • IdentityStoreId (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The globally unique identifier for the identity store, such as d-1234567890. In this example, d- is a fixed prefix, and 1234567890 is a randomly generated string that contains numbers and lower case letters. This value is generated at the time that a new identity store is created.

  • MaxResults (integer) – The maximum number of results to be returned per request. This parameter is used in the ListUsers and ListGroups requests to specify how many results to return in one page. The length limit is 50 characters.

  • NextToken (string) – The pagination token used for the ListUsers and ListGroups API operations. This value is generated by the identity store service. It is returned in the API response if the total results are more than the size of one page. This token is also returned when it is used in the API request to search for the next page.

  • Filters (list) –

    A list of Filter objects, which is used in the ListUsers and ListGroups requests.

      • AttributePath (string) – [REQUIRED]

        The attribute path that is used to specify which attribute name to search. Length limit is 255 characters. For example, UserName is a valid attribute path for the ListUsers API, and DisplayName is a valid attribute path for the ListGroups API.
