List volumes

List EBS volumes, optionally by id, state or attached instance.

Inputs

Volume IDsvolume_idslist
Only these volumes (vol-...). Each can be the id, its ARN, or the link to it in the EC2 console.
Statesstateslist
Only volumes in these states.One or more of: creating, available, in-use, deleting, deleted, error.
Attached to instanceinstance_idtext
Only volumes attached to this instance (i-...).
Other filtersfiltersobject
Extra EC2 filters as filter name to value (or list of values), e.g. 'tag:env' = 'prod' or 'instance-type' = 't3.micro'. Values may use * and ? wildcards.
Page sizemax_resultsnumber
How many records to return per page, 5-1000. Default 100. Ignored when ids are given.From 5 to 1000.
Next page tokennext_tokentext
The 'next_token' from the previous page, to read the next one.

  }
}

Reboot instances

Reboot running EC2 instances. They keep their IP addresses and data; the request returns before the reboot finishes.

Inputs

Instance IDsinstance_idslistRequired
One or more instances (i-...). Each can be the id, its ARN, or the link to it in the EC2 console. List instances finds them.

Outputs

resultobject
Example output
{
  "result": {
    "instance_ids": [
      "i-0abcd1234efgh5678"
    ],
    "rebooted": true
  }
}

Remove tags

Remove tags, by key, from EC2 resources. Only the keys listed are removed, whatever their value.

Inputs

Resource IDsresource_idslistRequired
Any EC2 resources: instances (i-...), volumes (vol-...), snapshots (snap-...), security groups (sg-...), AMIs (ami-...) and more. Each can be the id, its ARN, or the link to it in the EC2 console.
Tag keystag_keyslistRequired
The keys of the tags to remove.

Outputs

resultobject
Example output
{
  "result": {
    "removed": true,
    "resource_ids": [
      "i-0abcd1234efgh5678"

    "tag_keys": [
      "env"
    ]
  }
}

Start instances

Start stopped EC2 instances. Billing resumes once running.

Inputs

Instance IDsinstance_idslistRequired
One or more instances (i-...). Each can be the id, its ARN, or the link to it in the EC2 console. List instances finds them.
Wait until runningwait_until_runningtrue/false
Keep the step going until every instance is 'running' (up to 5 minutes), so the next step can use it and the public IP address is filled in. Turn off to return straight away.Default: true.

Outputs

resultobject
Example output
{
  "result": {
    "instance_ids": [
      "i-0abcd1234efgh5678"

        "previous_state": "stopped"
      }
    ],
    "wait_timed_out": false
  }
}

Stop instances

Stop running EC2 instances. Their EBS volumes are kept (and billed); memory contents are lost.

Inputs

Instance IDsinstance_idslistRequired
One or more instances (i-...). Each can be the id, its ARN, or the link to it in the EC2 console. List instances finds them.
Forceforcetrue/false
Force the instances to stop if they are stuck. They get no chance to flush file system caches, so use only as a last resort.Default: false.
Skip graceful OS shutdownskip_os_shutdowntrue/false
Skip the operating system's graceful shutdown, for a faster stop. Unsaved data in memory is lost.Default: false.
Wait until stoppedwait_until_stoppedtrue/false
Keep the step going until every instance is 'stopped' (up to 5 minutes). Turn off to return straight away.Default: true.

Outputs

resultobject
Example output
{
  "result": {
    "instance_ids": [

      }
    ],
    "wait_timed_out": false
  }
}

Terminate instances

Permanently delete EC2 instances. This cannot be undone: instance-store data and root volumes set to delete on termination are destroyed.

Inputs

Instance IDsinstance_idslistRequired
One or more instances (i-...). Each can be the id, its ARN, or the link to it in the EC2 console. List instances finds them.
Forceforcetrue/false
