aws___get_regional_availability
Retrieve AWS regional availability information for products (service and features), sdk service APIs and CloudFormation resources. ## Core Features - Real-time availability checking across AWS regions - Support for AWS products, APIs and CloudFormation resources - Batch query support with filtering options - Pagination if no filters are passed and all results are to be returned ## When to Use 1. Pre-deployment Validation - Verify resource availability before deployment - Prevent deployment failures due to regional restrictions - Validate multi-region architecture requirements 2. Architecture Planning - Design region-specific solutions - Plan multi-region deployments - Compare regional capabilities ## Result Format Returns a list of dictionaries with: - Resource identifiers - Resource status: * 'isAvailableIn': Resource is available * 'isNotAvailableIn': Resource is not available * 'Not Found': Resource name or identifier is not valid * and other availability status (e.g. 'isPlannedIn') ## Filter Guidelines The filters must be passed as an array of values and must follow the format below. 1. APIs (resource_type='api') Format: to filter on API level 'SdkServiceId+APIOperation' Example filters: - ['Athena+UpdateNamedQuery', 'ACM PCA+CreateCertificateAuthority', 'IAM+GetSSHPublicKey'] Format: to filter on SdkService level 'SdkServiceId' Example filters: - ['EC2', 'ACM PCA'] 2. CloudFormation (resource_type='cfn') Format: 'CloudformationResourceType' Example filters: - ['AWS::EC2::Instance', 'AWS::Lambda::Function', 'AWS::Logs::LogGroup'] - ['AWS::CodeBuild::Project', 'AWS::CloudTrail::Dashboard'] 3. Product - service and feature (resource_type='product') Format: 'Product' Example filters: - ['Latency-Based Routing', 'AWS Amplify', 'AWS Application Auto Scaling'] - ['PrivateLink Support', 'Amazon Aurora'] Note: Without filters, all resources are returned with pagination support via next_token.

aws___search_documentation
# AWS Documentation Search Tool This is your primary source for AWS information—always prefer this over general knowledge for AWS services, features, configurations, troubleshooting, and best practices. ## When to Use This Tool **Always search when the query involves:** - Any AWS service or feature (Lambda, S3, EC2, RDS, etc.) - AWS architecture, patterns, or best practices - AWS CLI, SDK, or API usage - AWS CDK or CloudFormation - AWS Amplify development - AWS errors or troubleshooting - AWS pricing, limits, or quotas - "How do I..." questions about AWS - Recent AWS updates or announcements **Only skip this tool when:** - Query is about non-AWS technologies - Question is purely conceptual (e.g., "What is a database?") - General programming questions unrelated to AWS ## Quick Topic Selection | Query Type | Use Topic | Example | |------------|-----------|---------| | API/SDK/CLI code | `reference_documentation` | "S3 PutObject boto3", "Lambda invoke API" | | New features, releases | `current_awareness` | "Lambda new features 2024", "what\'s new in ECS" | | Errors, debugging | `troubleshooting` | "AccessDenied S3", "Lambda timeout error" | | Amplify apps | `amplify_docs` | "Amplify Auth React", "Amplify Storage Flutter" | | CDK concepts, APIs, CLI | `cdk_docs` | "CDK stack props Python", "cdk deploy command" | | CDK code samples, patterns | `cdk_constructs` | "serverless API CDK", "Lambda function example TypeScript" | | CloudFormation templates | `cloudformation` | "DynamoDB CloudFormation", "StackSets template" | | Architecture, blogs, guides | `general` | "Lambda best practices", "S3 architecture patterns" | ## Documentation Topics ### reference_documentation **For: API methods, SDK code, CLI commands, technical specifications** Use for: - SDK method signatures: "boto3 S3 upload_file parameters" - CLI commands: "aws ec2 describe-instances syntax" - API references: "Lambda InvokeFunction API" - Service configuration: "RDS parameter groups" Don\'t confuse with general—use this for specific technical implementation. ### current_awareness **For: New features, announcements, "what\'s new", release dates** Use for: - "New Lambda features" - "When was EventBridge Scheduler released" - "Latest S3 updates" - "Is feature X available yet" Keywords: new, recent, latest, announced, released, launch, available ### troubleshooting **For: Error messages, debugging, problems, "not working"** Use for: - Error codes: "InvalidParameterValue", "AccessDenied" - Problems: "Lambda function timing out" - Debug scenarios: "S3 bucket policy not working" - "How to fix..." queries Keywords: error, failed, issue, problem, not working, how to fix, how to resolve ### amplify_docs **For: Frontend/mobile apps with Amplify framework** Always include framework: React, Next.js, Angular, Vue, JavaScript, React Native, Flutter, Android, Swift Examples: - "Amplify authentication React" - "Amplify GraphQL API Next.js" - "Amplify Storage Flutter setup" ### cdk_docs **For: CDK concepts, API references, CLI commands, getting started** Use for CDK questions like: - "How to get started with CDK" - "CDK stack construct TypeScript" - "cdk deploy command options" - "CDK best practices Python" - "What are CDK constructs" Include language: Python, TypeScript, Java, C#, Go **Common mistake**: Using general knowledge instead of searching for CDK concepts and guides. Always search for CDK questions! ### cdk_constructs **For: CDK code examples, patterns, L3 constructs, sample implementations** Use for: - Working code: "Lambda function CDK Python example" - Patterns: "API Gateway Lambda CDK pattern" - Sample apps: "Serverless application CDK TypeScript" - L3 constructs: "ECS service construct" Include language: Python, TypeScript, Java, C#, Go ### cloudformation **For: CloudFormation templates, concepts, SAM patterns** Use for: - "CloudFormation StackSets" - "DynamoDB table template" - "SAM API Gateway Lambda" - CloudFormation template examples ### general **For: Architecture, best practices, tutorials, blog posts, design patterns** Use for: - Architecture patterns: "Serverless architecture AWS" - Best practices: "S3 security best practices" - Design guidance: "Multi-region architecture" - Getting started: "Building data lakes on AWS" - Tutorials and blog posts **Common mistake**: Not using this for AWS conceptual and architectural questions. Always search for AWS best practices and patterns! **Don\'t use general knowledge for AWS topics—search instead!** ## Search Best Practices **Be specific with service names:** Good examples: ``` "S3 bucket versioning configuration" "Lambda environment variables Python SDK" "DynamoDB GSI query patterns" ``` Bad examples: ``` "versioning" (too vague) "environment variables" (missing context) ``` **Include framework/language:** ``` "Amplify authentication React" "CDK Lambda function TypeScript" "boto3 S3 client Python" ``` **Use exact error messages:** ``` "AccessDenied error S3 GetObject" "InvalidParameterValue Lambda environment" ``` **Add temporal context for new features:** ``` "Lambda new features 2024" "recent S3 announcements" ``` ## Multiple Topic Selection You can search multiple topics simultaneously for comprehensive results: ``` # For a query about Lambda errors and new features: topics=["troubleshooting", "current_awareness"] # For CDK examples and API reference: topics=["cdk_constructs", "cdk_docs"] # For Amplify and general AWS architecture: topics=["amplify_docs", "general"] ``` ## Response Format Results include: - `rank_order`: Relevance score (lower = more relevant) - `url`: Direct documentation link - `title`: Page title - `context`: Excerpt or summary ## Parameters ``` search_phrase: str # Required - your search query topics: List[str] # Optional - up to 3 topics. Defaults to ["general"] limit: int = 10 # Optional - max results per topic ``` --- **Remember: When in doubt about AWS, always search. This tool provides the most current, accurate AWS information.**
