ListInsightsData - AWS CloudTrail

ListInsightsData

Returns Insights events generated on a trail that logs data events. You can list Insights events that occurred in a Region within the last 90 days.

ListInsightsData supports the following Dimensions for Insights events:

  • Event ID

  • Event name

  • Event source

All dimensions are optional. The default number of results returned is 50, with a maximum of 50 possible. The response includes a token that you can use to get the next page of results.

The rate of ListInsightsData requests is limited to two per second, per account, per Region. If this limit is exceeded, a throttling error occurs.
