get_canary_runs

Synthetics.Client.get_canary_runs(**kwargs)

Retrieves a list of runs for a specified canary.

Request Syntax

response = client.get_canary_runs(
    Name='string',
    NextToken='string',
    MaxResults=123,
    DryRunId='string',
    RunType='CANARY_RUN'|'DRY_RUN'
)
Parameters:
  • Name (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The name of the canary that you want to see runs for.

  • NextToken (string) –

    A token that indicates that there is more data available. You can use this token in a subsequent GetCanaryRuns operation to retrieve the next set of results.

    Note

    When auto retry is enabled for the canary, the first subsequent retry is suffixed with *1 indicating its the first retry and the next subsequent try is suffixed with *2.

  • MaxResults (integer) – Specify this parameter to limit how many runs are returned each time you use the GetCanaryRuns operation. If you omit this parameter, the default of 100 is used.

  • DryRunId (string) – The DryRunId associated with an existing canary’s dry run. You can use this DryRunId to retrieve information about the dry run.

  • RunType (string) –

    • When you provide RunType=CANARY_RUN and dryRunId, you will get an exception

    • When a value is not provided for RunType, the default value is CANARY_RUN

    • When CANARY_RUN is provided, all canary runs excluding dry runs are returned

    • When DRY_RUN is provided, all dry runs excluding canary runs are returned

Return type:

dict

Response Structure

  • (dict) –

    • CanaryRuns (list) –

      An array of structures. Each structure contains the details of one of the retrieved canary runs.

      • (dict) –

        This structure contains the details about one run of one canary.

        • Id (string) –

          A unique ID that identifies this canary run.

        • ScheduledRunId (string) –

          The ID of the scheduled canary run.

        • RetryAttempt (integer) –

          The count in number of the retry attempt.

        • Name (string) –

          The name of the canary.

        • Status (dict) –

          The status of this run.

          • State (string) –

            The current state of the run.

          • StateReason (string) –

            If run of the canary failed, this field contains the reason for the error.

          • StateReasonCode (string) –

            If this value is CANARY_FAILURE, either the canary script failed or Synthetics ran into a fatal error when running the canary. For example, a canary timeout misconfiguration setting can cause the canary to timeout before Synthetics can evaluate its status.

            If this value is EXECUTION_FAILURE, a non-critical failure occurred such as failing to save generated debug artifacts (for example, screenshots or har files).

            If both types of failures occurred, the CANARY_FAILURE takes precedence. To understand the exact error, use the StateReason API.

          • TestResult (string) –

            Specifies the status of canary script for this run. When Synthetics tries to determine the status but fails, the result is marked as UNKNOWN. For the overall status of canary run, see State.

        • Timeline (dict) –

          A structure that contains the start and end times of this run.

          • Started (datetime) –

            The start time of the run.

          • Completed (datetime) –

            The end time of the run.

          • MetricTimestampForRunAndRetries (datetime) –

            The time at which the metrics will be generated for this run or retries.

        • ArtifactS3Location (string) –

          The location where the canary stored artifacts from the run. Artifacts include the log file, screenshots, and HAR files.

        • DryRunConfig (dict) –

          Returns the dry run configurations for a canary.

          • DryRunId (string) –

            The DryRunId associated with an existing canary’s dry run. You can use this DryRunId to retrieve information about the dry run.

    • NextToken (string) –

      A token that indicates that there is more data available. You can use this token in a subsequent GetCanaryRuns operation to retrieve the next set of results.
